Sup everyone, I'm a newb and this is my first post. I just want to say I'm glad I found this website because it has so much information and I'm happy to be a member.

Anyway, as the title says I want to grow in my dorm room in college. I've never grown but I do enjoy the herb and am SICK of paying top dollar at college with these jackasses selling bullshit weed. I'm in a different city and don't know anyone to buy legit weed from like back home. I got to thinking and decided one night to grow weed in my room with my roommate.

I've learned so much from the internet in the last month of reading forums and faqs and have weighed the outcomes of growing in my dorm room. I've decided I'm going to and am completely set on doing it.

So to grow I will need a box of some sort, it cannot be anything other than self contained. I've looked at all the prefabs and before I pulled the trigger I decided to build it myself. I have a few options in a dorm room but the most favorable would be under my bed. The bed can be raised up (and down) so that I can fit slightly less then 4', maybe like 3' 8". The space under the bed is long though, like 5', so i can have a wide box. I want to be able to fit a fridge next to it under the bed so maybe i can have a 4' wide box.

I want to basically make a stealth grow, my plan is to make a box something like 4' wide 3'8" tall and 3'10" deep. I want to have an aquarium in the front of the box so that it looks like a piece of furniture with an aquarium in it. I plan on building it out of wood and painting it black so that people cant tell how far back it goes under my bed. The back of my box will open up (I'd have to climb under my bed to get to it but whatever) so that i can tend to the plants.

I plan on growing two plants in 2 gallon DWC bubblers with a scrog grow and a 400w hps/mh air cooled hood from hid hut. I keep going back and forth on ideas but i think the scrog is the most reasonable. I have a place (not my dorm) to do a perpetual harvest like al b fucts but id rather wait till i can actually grow! I would do a sog but i dont really need that many plants if i get caught red handed in my dorm.

I'll keep you guys posted on how my box comes along. I'm going to start building the 22 of this month (payday). I'll take lots of pictures incase anyone wants me to explain in depth how i built my box.

I want to grow with seeds from nirvana, the wonder woman feminized strain. Anything wrong with that strain for me? I want to grow for yield and middle potency. But thats later, I want this thing to grow in the first place!

Sorry for the length, any suggestions welcome!

Hippie
