    First time growing, microgrow assistance?

    Just planted six germinated seeds! Didn't have any small pots for them so I used 9oz plastic cups with holes in the bottom. I have a 24w CFL, 1700 lumens, a 13w CFL, 900 lumens and a 20w 24" with around 1000 lumens so far, do you think it's enough for the moment? Here's some photos, anything I...

    Been less than 17 hours since I started germination and a seed or two has already cracked! Hell yeah :D

    Great. I found a 20w, 24" Cool White fluorescent bulb and lamp out in my garage, donno how many lumens but probably around 1000? Also have a few cheap 17w CFLs.. I started germinating some seeds, can't wait to plant them. Thanks for all the help, I'm really excited.

    Found out my local Walmart sells 42w, 2700 lumens CFLs for like $8, gonna pick up two or three of those I guess.

    I'm gonna start growing with just regular seeds from some normal regs, I'll probably build the filter. Good to hear that you think I can get a good amount for myself :D. Thanks for the help so far.

    Great thanks :D. Could anyone take a guess at how much two plants would smell and how much I could hopefully harvest?

    First time growing, microgrow assistance?

    That's a good idea, thanks. I just realized that the temps outside the closet are often 85F+, but from what I recall, inside the closed closet.. it's generally cooler, maybe 78F or less. Hopefully I'll be okay. Haven't started anything yet but once I get the lights, pots, screen and whatnot...

    Also I will note that I live in a very warm climate and even with AC on, the closet where I'll grow can be 85F, maybe even higher. That's why I want to use CFLs so I can try to keep as cool as possible. Could I just use a small 9" fan desktop fan or something and blow it across the two plants?

    So just chicken wire attached to a wood frame? I'm not sure if I could fit normal FLs in there.. Thanks again.

    First time growing, microgrow assistance?

    Really I'd like to keep this as quiet as possible without larger fans. 150w HPS aren't CFLs though are they? If I used a couple CFLs I believe this would be cool enough but would it be enough light for two small plants? Thanks.

    First time growing, microgrow assistance?

    Yeah I figured I'd take the shelves out but still use one so I can adjust the hight of the plants to the lights :D. What kind of cooling fans? Could I cut a hole in it and use 12v PC cooling fans? How many and what kind of CFLs would you recommend? Thanks.

    First time growing, microgrow assistance?

    I'd like to start by saying that I've never grown before and I'd like to try a small indoor grow, a couple plants at most. How hard would it be to grow inside a cabinet like this?(Mountain Dew and Cocaine can shown for size): ] I'd like to use CFLs to keep temps down. I've been browsing around...
