Hi guys,

Just about to start my first grow and have a few questions.

I plan on growing indoors in a small area.

I'm going to use two CFLs at the same time, is this a good idea? What different temperature lights should I use, and should I use the same lights through out the grow?

Thanks in advance!

You definitely need to do some reading. Since you're going with CFLs I'd recommend Buds for Less.

Go here and download CutePDF for free. It then shows as "Printer". When you want to save something like that on Scribd where you have to pay to download then simply tell it "Print" from your "File" header and choose "CutePDF". It then formats and saves as true PDF.

I haven't got any yet. I can quiet easily get some though, would you recommend something around 30 - 40w for two light CFL setup?

I haven't actually decided.

Is an everyday PC case too small? I have one to hand. It would be ideal as it already has holes to mount fans.

Nice.

I'm just trying to keep things simple, like I say it's a first time grow. Not overly fussed about the outcome.

Maybe I could start in a PC case, and then find something else if/ when it gets bigger?
