So me and a couple friends toke some badseed off some nug we were smoking, and decided to start a full on serious grow, we set up a cheap cardboard box with barely 30watts in it. Nothing good at all, and was very unorganized, and was un-successful.
I just started a second grow today, out of a maybe 3' X 2' X 3'

Something that looks like this:

Hi :D. Everything is looking great! I would get one more of those 2600k cfls when your in flowering. 100w per plant is right where you need to be at to start getting good results. I'm, sub'd. gl with the grow, ill keep checking in.. :leaf: :leaf:

Reflective surface can be bought at wallymart. Also make sure the plants have room to grow. In my experience, lights should be about 3 inches away at the start. If the lights are to close during the Veg process they will not reach for light at all. (they will stay small and compact if light is ontop of them) Grow with high thoughts my friend.

The space blanket at wallymart is about $2.88. well worth the value, supposedly it reflects all the leftover light. IMO it work very well. I was told it makes your effective light double. In my personal experience it has doubled my rate of growth over the past several weeks.

Thanks for all the advice guys, I have around 100W's about 2 inches from the plant right now 18/6 on a timer already. I have about a 2 1/2FT vertical growing space. So I should be fine + LST

EDIT#1:And about the space blanket, I'm just using tin foil, I like the way it looks too.

EDIT#2:
Big update tommorow!

Big update #1:


Sorry for shitty pictures, next pictures will be perfect. I have 5 people in my house for labor day weekend, and I managed to get these. That one light is off because I accidently pulled the coord for it, and the other light fixure + 6500K is token out because I accidently broke the circuit.

I don't think I'll be able to get a space blanket, I just coated most of the walls and the door should make it better.
