Window Growing - No Budget

^ Yep Fir, I have about 500 bucks of bullshit piled up in a corner that is nothing but junk once I upgraded.

Wish there was a site full of experienced growers to advise me when I first started indoor growing and could have saved me so much money, time, and headache.

My thoughts, if you cannot come up with 500 bucks to put together a grow area, go buy it off the street. I know there are plenty of people who are as half-assed as they can be and will defend half-assness to the day they die, but that is what seperates people like me from them.
I am all about doing it right. If it is worth doing, it is worth doing right. Otherwise go home to mommy and let her tit feed you.

I agree only there was a site I went to and I never listened oh well... I sure do now and the plants look great haven't did a update to the journal but they look good and are up to the top of my 4ft vertical scrog fence.. Can't wait for the return of my first 600w vertical coco hempy kiss style grow.. I'm excited haha. I'm only used to 5 oz or so a harvest so 8-10 will be a massive improvement on my end
 
A 23 watt cfl that gives out 100 watts of light and in a "chicken" reflector directly over and 3" above 4 seedlings, all other requirements being met, will get the seedlings growing. I know because I've done it. He WILL need to add more light later.

Thanx pal i am going to, i mean im certain i will make a return to RIU in the next week or so about a problem but iv been reading up on a couple of things, male/female for a start, im not too sure how to tell the difference early on like most people can, but iv read that males can still be smoked, though theyre not as nice and not as strong, but im sure iv had worse and im sure most on here have aswell, i cant see it being any worse than when you pull all your leftover roaches + resin together for that "last joint", but in any case im going to give it a shot, and good thing is if i fail i have 4 seeds so i have 3 restart buttons. :lol:

I don't know who or where you're getting advice but please quit listening to them. You can't tell sex until they are either mature enough to show during veg, which is usually 5 weeks or so or unless you force flower them and they will show. Males can be smoked sure but they do not bud, and they do not contain trichomes so you will not get high off trichs only from air and coughing lol.. It's basically smoking fan leafs..

Yeah sure it will get them growing... And the window will too. But why just spend money on the light and nothing else when he needs to get a environment under control first such as first is a spot to grow
