SO didnt really have a budget for this grow but wanted to be somewhat cheap. Didnt really work out to much but this is what i ordered so far.

1000w HPS



($333.95)

5x5 Grow Tent

($350.00)

PH Tester

($50.00)

2 Gallon Pots

($10.00)

FoxFarm Soil

($30.00)

Seeds:
Auto Assassin, Pandora,Snowstorm,snowryder,Big Band,Lemon skunk (all auto)

($60.00)

Also already have a few nice fans and flowering nuts.
Total so far: (833.95)

Im sure by time i start flowering it will be around a grand but im ok with that.
I will be taking pictures and filming this grow with my JVC Full HD cam which was $1200 but thats doesn't count :) haha

ANYWAYS.. i want to know what i forgot to buy and what im going to need or just any opinions on this grow please!!! :)

For someone with a small budget sounds like your doing ok (:

I just don't get why grow auto's with a 1000W HPS..
You could yield more by growing like 4 plants in bigger pot's with more veg time..

I started on 24/0 and had to switch to 20/4, i found using 24/0 was causing to much heat stress, i looked at the snowryder to but went with the afgan, let me no how you get on with that baby

subscribe and find out yourself ;)

and yeah thats why less stress and lots of people promote dark periods and something about roots need dark period? idk 4 hours and a little stretching wont hurt

hope you got a carbon filter and fan in the works. bout 3 weeks your gonna have a nice smell on your hands. Things look good. I got 8 autos and a big strawberry cough I've been vegging since march. My set up started very much like yours, I'm about 1500 into it at the moment. It'll be cool to compare yields. I'm only rocking out a 600.
