hows it tokein guys? bongsmilie

I purchased a 30 inch portable storage closet frm K-mart. Its blue nylon which i plan on spray painting black on the outside and white within.

heres a pic..my friend picked up the bigger one for his grow


the measurements are:
30inL x 19.5inW x 67inH-30 something dollars

Lights:
2-68w soft white CFL 14.00 each
2700K each
4200 lumens each

these are gonna go around the plant
1-20w soft white- lumens ???
2-18w daylight- lumens ???
1-19w soft white- lumens ???

total of 370 watts and ???? lumens

how many plants do u think i can grow in there? I kno im gonna need more light but im sticking to cfl's. or maybe more daylight bulbs??and can somebody tell me how many lumens those lights are?



I ordered my 2 White Dwarf seeds from attitude,they came in 10 days no problem..along with the freebies.

Purple seed came from a bag of reggie..but the shit had purple buds!!it put me 2 sleep for about 5 hours n i was still high when i woke up so it was a must that i grew it!!

i germed da seeds for about 3 days (2 Purple and one WD) They popped 2day and are in 3 liter pots as we speak in organic miracle grow potting soil. I was shocked 2 see that the shit didnt have any perlite in it..imma add some when its time for da transplant n shit.

right now i have them under 18/6..2 fans,one at the top of the box n one at the bottom..i plan on getting more 6500k joints some time dis week..even though im crankin 370w outta there already,we can always have more light right guys!!

pix will be up when they break soil sometime next week!

my babies broke completly thru the soil 2day!!!

for some reason i can see the root on the WD, is this because i didnt put it deep enuff in the soil?? it almost looks as though its tied up in a knot almost but im scared 2 bother it..ill prolly jus add some more soil around it 2 give it some support.

i sparyed them with distilled water about 4 hours ago n they seem 2 be lovin erry drop of it!!

the purple plants are doin good as hell, i added the mylar on day 6..they seem 2 love it, i think imma put some on my ghetto reflector since it really doesnt do much reflecting.

welp,my WD died on me yesterday...i woke up n da bitch was slumped over in da pot lol

i tried 2 see if she would come back 2 life but she didnt..now i have 6 more purple's,1 WD,3 Dankass seeds..all waiting 2 break soil under the areogarden light.

the bigger purple is doing great, and i removed the other one from the pot and placed it in MG moisture control soil in a red cup until it gets bigger...i hope those purple plants arent sativa,i wanna harvest by @ least july

Plants are looking good bro. Are you in the US? I ask because those lil tent thing are fucking ingenious. I bet they are WAY cheaper than grow tents. I wonder how it is on keep light in and keeping light out though? Good Luck on the grow

yeah im in the US.

my tent costed me about 30 bones lol..idk how much grow tents are but im happy with wut i have

as far as keeping the outside light out,i have towels around the bottom of it so no light gets in...plus its in a closet so really all i have 2 do is close the door..

i jus removed all the lil netting from the jiffy pellets on 3 of my plants..WD,one purp,and the thai SS...

i read yesterday that the jiffys cause root lock so 2 eliminate that problem i took the shit off...a couple roots broke but nothin 2 major,im not gonna worry about it 2 much cuz i have so many plants 2 work with...

45 or 50 dollars would still be saving me 150 lol. Without shipping the grow tent I want is 199.99. The only thing that is still making me lean toward it is the already cut out exhaust/intake holes. And it already being 100% light proof.

lawry, lookin good. my white dwarfs just turned 20 days old today and are going strong. two are fat looking indicas while the other is skinnier and is actually discolored. a bit. i used jiffy peat pellets a while back and all my plants died. coulda been the fact i was in south carolina where it sucks for growing, i dunno. now i use general hydroponics rapid rooters in a sunleaves clone tray with a hydrofarm heat mat. this gets root growth going quick!! check out my autoflower/clone/experiment cabinet. there are some pics of my white dwarfs in there too. you can see the one that looks different. it actually looks sick but is being cared for exactly like the others, so theres not much i can do except ride it out.
