Hey all! New grower doing a budget grow of three Sour Livers (Autoflowers) from Mephisto with a cheap diy cfl light I made with a total wattage of 276 watts (Actual watts).
Right now there 25 days from sprout above ground.
Three Mephisto Sour Livers
2x2x4 tent ($37 shipped on Ebay)
Diy Cfl Light 276 Watts (Ask for tutorial if interested.) I use cheap 23 Watt Cfl's to maximize the most wattage per dollar.
12 23 watt cfl bulbs bought in 4-packs for about $10 shipped each 4-pack.
Roots Organic Original Soil
3 Gallon Smart Pots
4" Duct Fan and 4" carbon filter (Will be hooking up once flowering begins) Paid $34 for fan and $30 for carbon filter shipped ebay $6 for ducting, $5 for foil duct tape.
Light timer set to 20 on 4 off Paid $10
Digital Thermometer $4 on Ebay
Digital Ph Meter around $8 on Ebay
Ph up and down cheap on Ebay
Extension Cords $10
Rope hangers for lights, fan etc $10 for 4
Zip ties (for mounting things etc)
There's a few more items in particular for the diy light not listed.
I use regular tap water (has just the regular type of chlorine checked city info) I leave cap off for at least 24 hours for chlorine to evaporate the ph is high so I add some ph down to every jug and test again till I get a reading of between 6.2 and 6.5.
Here's some pics
