I'm a virgin at growing and posting on forums, so I guess I'm going to loose my virginity on valentines day. Happy V-day all now please bare with me!!!
First and foremost thanks for all the useful info that I hijacked from this site over the last month or so. I now am happily a member and have a few questions of my own.
Here we go! Ill first explain my desired results from this first grow as well as my future grows, constructive criticism is greatly appreciated. This first grow is for educational purposes only, I completely expect to fail, though I will do my best not to. I expect not to yield any bud and really don't care if I get hermies or males, a female would be optimal of course. I'm learning
and from my experience you learn best from your failures. I am a small time smoker so small time growing is my preference. Eventually I would like to master the process of growing 3.5 grams or more out of a relatively small space per grow cycle. Big dreamer I know. An 1/8 last me about 2-3 months and I just bought a QP so I have some time to learn. I was a custom builder at a furniture shop a few years back so I have the skills and tools to build a pretty nifty setup. As of now I have a custom built cab 30x30x30. 4inch inline exhaust at top and a 3 inch passive intake at bottom. Sealed and lined with mylar. Capable of holding 10 cfls (using 4 at the moment) I have a fan directly in the middle that blows 360o. It's holding a pretty consistent temp of 84 and a humidity of 40ish. I have 2 seedlings from bag seed my buddy gave me. They are a week old and doing good. They are in MG organic (I know I know) it's mixed with 50% of my own compost soil and has good drainage. The ph is around 6.5.
Know my questions for you pros are.
Do u think in a box this small I could grow 3.5 grams or more per cycle from 1-2 plants?
Is one bigger plant in the space better then 2 smaller plants?
It's not a stealth grow as far as looks because it is in a room that only I go into but smell would be a issue. Will it?
What are a few things you would suggest money isn't a issue so I will mod within reason however I want to use CFL only for a few reasons?
Excuse my spelling and thank you.
