Got a question, sense you guys are talking about lighting, this is my indoor cabinet. It's about 2x4 ft and 5 ft tall. Right now I have t-5's and cfls for veg. I use it on cloudy days and about 5 pm I move my plants in there from outside (to keep them in veg). I'm thinking about flowering 2 of my main lined plants in there. What type of light would be good? I have a bathroom exhaust fan mounted on top to help remove hot air and that small fan you see in the picture. Winter time temps here are still up in the 80's and low 70's at night, so might need more fans? My other option would be to set up an area outside of the cabinet.
a 400 in a nice hood would be fine, i would work on another fresh air in, and out.....if you have the option, a square space is easier to work with.......the best is to build custom of course...

i don't understand why more people don't do hydro, the initial cost is hight but after that its cheap for nutes, bigger yields, faster runs, etc.

Day 1

...after the beans sprout, and they have a tail coming out the bottom of the rooter, i put them into 1 qt. clear plastic cups wrapped in electrical tape to black them out, but the bottoms are left clear so i can study the roots......these work really well esp. for clones when the grower needs to now when they are ready for transplant....the Timewreck has yet to break out, and the Bay 11 came up with only one cody...... it looks like it caught the sharp edge of the seed on the way up, because it appears to have been sheared off.:leaf:

Thanks for sharing your process, I'm following along. Mind questions on the way...? Are those rapid rooters and what soil are they transplanted to now? Thanks
editing- like the clear cup/black tape/study roots!

nugs, i have always used a clear solo cup inside a red or blue solo cup, that way you can pull the entire clear cup out and study all the roots, not just the bottom.

Brilliant. I'd actually done the tape before, too.... but this​ sounds much better.

Any size will work. I saw someone doing this on icmag. It works flawlessly. Spread the word. :bigjoint:

Prime example of the effectiveness of hivemind. I love the Internet!!

Does anyone have any experience with anyone that used MMJ for FM? Indica or Sativa? Tincture? Eatable? Vape? Smoke? Suppository?
