Hey guys, Just leaving an update. Its been hard to find time amidst school and work, but im still working on it. After alot of reading and browsing these forums i've decided for such a small grow the best bet is to keep this whole thing as simple and elegant as i can. Since i want to avoid...

So, i've decided to embark on a micro stealth grow within a computer case. I know this is very confining yeild wise, and to get the most out of such a small space, i would like to use a small HPS in lue of CFLs. I found this kit for a 70watt home security HPS from homedepot. My concern is...

Hey guys, good call on the security problem call. One weekend of seasonal traffic and a memorial day visitor or two and im done with that location. Ima have to go outdoors with it. I got a couple spots staked out, we'll see how that goes. And as for the engineering aspect, i wanna go indoor...

Chronntec i hadn't thought of that aspect of the smell. I had just planed on using rubber weatherstripping on plywood panels, with screws. Easy on easy off, sealed when closed, but when i open it, it will smell alright. Ill just air it out after i guess. And yes, i plan on being able to get...

Well, at 17, juggling a car payment, innsurance, and tuition, im financialy motivated to get creative. After seeing 150 watt hps setups inteded for security going for 60 a pop on ebay i might downsize my wattage a bit to save some loot. Anyone have any thoughts on my wattage for a grow this...

Sorry for the double post, damn backspace went back a few pages and mest me up.

I've had an interesting experience so far with MG. To date if potted around 30 seedlings into MG potting mix, the 3 month time release stuff. The first 4 plants i potted are thriving, an example being this picture of alyssa "knocks on wood" at 20 days from the time the seed first met water...

well the setup sounds like what i wanna accomplish, minus store bought. Im good with my hands and i can make Carbon filters wrapped around mesh for support so ill basically have can filters, as long as i blow my exhuast threw them and seal it all up it should function the same as the store...

Anyone? Anything would be appreciated

Hey guys, This is my first grow, in soil, indoors. The final grow space will be under this workbench that bends inside a corner of the basement. There is another leg that that light sorta blinds out that forms the L shape in the diagram i drew. Currently its all just out in the open...

Indeed it is. As for cleaning up that i can handle, what i can't handle is how perfect the location is and how great some of the seedlings are looking, and not actually pulling it off. Here is a first draft of my plans for the final grow room setup, . On second thought i might have both...

Hey guys, I need some help with lighting cycles. I've read that some folks have been having some good success with 12/12 from seed, but in these instances its just 12/12 from the start. The rest of the grows i've seen or read about had the normal period of vegitating that would be present in...

Thanks in advance to anyone who takes the time to look this over and help me with my plant problems, you help the novice growers immensely. So about the problem, i've used the search feature to identify the outline of my problems, if anyone could directly address these issues it would help...

Another update, morning of day 22 Some plants are thriving, some are gaining strength, and a few straight dropped their leaves. Im still happy with whats going strong though. The temp sensor recorded a temp range of 63-70, when i was there it was holding steady at 66 and 67 in two...

Day 20 It's killing me to not be living at the house with my plants. I came by to find that my friend had fallen sick and naturally taken better care for himself than the plants. No ones fault but i found the seedlings being crushed by a poorly mounted Flouro, the sweet 16 desperatly in...

Just a couple quick questions i have for more experience growers. First of all. Im proficeint electronically. I can solder, wire, build, most devices provided a schematic. I understand the basic parts and fucntions of an HPS ballast, the transformer, capacitor, ignitor, and socket. This all...

DWR, i wrote all that at like 3 in the morning, made rediculous amount of gramatical errors, and i ment to type 4 250watts. The problem is i don't have room to get all the plants under one big light. I have plenty of room, but its in a long corridor fashion. I made this quick diagram to...
