D and A's New feminized soil grow.

en3tyskate said:

My friend and I are starting a new grow. Any advice will help us because we are both newbies. So far, are plan is using blue mystic seeds, which are supposed to be feminized, have very little smell, have good dense buds, and be very short. We are planning on buying a pre paid credit card and getting 10 seeds from nirvana. Then, we will use happy frog soil mixed with 25% pearlite. For vegatative lighting we were thinking of using 4 cool white fluorescent 48 " tubes/daylight tubes for 5 plants and 4 23 watt cfl's hanging for lighting the lower parts of the plants. Then, when budding comes replacing the fluorescent tubes with warm white ones or a lower kelvin rating. For ventilation i was thinking using small fans to make an exhaust/intake system + 2-3 oscillating fans. For temperature we are not quite sure because this grow is under his house and during winter and fall months, it gets quite cold so we were hoping to find a thermostat or heater that keeps it at 75 F. And last, the fert i am using for vegatative is peters 24-8-16 fert which i will use after 1 month from germination, if i need it. My budding fert, will be Bone meal 3-15-0.

I know my plan has some flaws, but im a beginner and please let me know what i can change. I need to know if you can find CPU fans at a place like walmart or radioshack. Help is very much appreciated because once i have it all planned, i will start getting the rest of my supplies.

just go to google and search for cpu fans and get an american express card with a hundred dollars on it(can be used almost every where) and buy the seeds 40 dallors and the fans are about 11 dollars so 30 total for that and have an extra 30 bucks for other stuff

I was going to use cool white 4100k 40W tubes, or daylight 6500k 40W tubes for vegging. Why wouldnt they work?
