Okay, well I've got some bag seeds so I decided that I would try and grow some. I'm just starting with one seed. My failure is almost guaranteed due to lack of space. But we will see how it turns out. :wall:

Well I was trying to upload some pictures but my camera isn't working properly and my camera on my phone is crap. So as soon as I can get the cam to work I will post some pics.

best way to learn how to grow is to experiment. I have grown plants outside of my regular grow just to torture to learn the thresholds of the plant.
Lol that's exactly what this is; an experimental grow. My space is about a 1 and 1/2 feet tall, 1 foot deep, and 1 foot wide. Lol. So this one is gonna be for fun.

Oh and any one new to growing just tune in. Pretty much anything can happen, whether it grows, or it doesn't.

You could grow a proper plant in that space.
Just use a 42W CFL (red color - 2700K), passive intake from below the plant, exhaust fan on the top, a DIY reflector (aluminium one-time baking tray for example) and start 12\12 lightning from seed and you'll be just fine.

However, get some GOOD soil, add at least 20% perlite and get some blooming fertilizer. If your going cheap like i guess you could use bone meal, but if you have some extra bucks get a bottle of high P and K guano. Like this one: http://cgi.ebay.com/Flower-Power-Organic-Bloom-Fertilizer-by-BMO_W0QQitemZ260506254357QQcmdZViewItemQQptZFertilizer_Soil_Amendments?hash=item3ca761fc15

Start with that.
If you have some extra funds get a PH testing pen and a PH down solution.


Thats most of what you need in order to succeed in your operation.

2 small plants can yield you an ounce a piece in that space if you do your homework and get a great plan together before you crack them seeds. LST and/or scrog and you will not be disappointed. Just dont get ahead of yourself, and you won't fail.

wat up night clapton, have seen u in a while? but yea great advice! on the DIY reflector, cut in half soda (or beer i like beer more ;-)) werk great too, thats wat i used wen i was using CFL's. i would recomend FOX FARMS soil, but NOT there nutes. if u get the soil try to get sum perlite too and do a 70% SOIL 30% PERLITE MIX.

Thanks guys. But I'm gonna stick with Miracle Grow because I want to see if its as bad as it seems.
Thanks for the advice though. It will be taken into account in future grows. :)
Oh yeah, I tried uploading pics again but it keeps saying invalid picture. Anyone know whats wrong?

Lol thanks man. That little tiny fan suuure is powerful. And that weird bulge thing in the middle (closer to the top) is my exhaust. Its a way that i found to block the light from getting out. I used a pc fan for that.

Yeah I know, but this is gonna be a very ghetto grow just for fun. If its a female we will see what we get. And if its a male we will beat the crap out of it until it finally dies.
