Outdoor grow that a friend gave me.
It thrives in Florida weather...
Hot as balls

2 cfls that are 42w 2700k and my grow space is right size, let me know if you think not.
and i think i might just add some 13w cfls maybe like 2 or 3 good decisions or what?
Have 2 different types of lighting devices a clamp light and a light socket that holds the light on it's side{Yellow Handle}.

if you go cfl ,which will work use the 6500k for veg and the 2700k for flower. some will go with 3 6500k and 1 2700k for veg and 3 2700k 1 6500k for flower to mix the spectrum. i think cfl rule is around 100w (true cfl watts) for 1st plant and 50w for every add plant
what about 2700 k (plus) 2 or 3 13w cfls? believe their 6500k? all for the one plant.

alright dude,

you need a timer
4 more of each of them CFL's (thats a total of 10 CFL and around 420watts (haha 420 watts dam!!))
some Y conectors and some sort of method to plug them all in.
fertilizer, get some sort of all purpose salt based fert that has a NPK of all roughfly the same (i.e 3-3-3, 4-4-4, 5-5-5...get the picture?) once you learn more you can experiment more with different nutrients and shit
dont bother PHing water going into soil its a waste of time, but do make sure your soil is PH 6.5-6.8 something like that.
if the plant is flowering timer needs to be set on 18/6 so it wont go back to veg
you will need some fans to exaust hot air
mist the hell out of your plants under them CFL they wont burn, if they do ill stick my dick in a blender.

with a budget of 400 bucks you can get a 400w HID light that fires both MH and HPS and a small grow tent, all the ducting and fans you need + a order of some decent genetics from attitude. thats up to you, or you can try and ghetto rig that cabinet. whichever suites your needs best, some people dont have room for a tent and its just not a option.

you can also get a 150 or 250 HID light that fires MGH and HPS bulbs but with HID lighting heat becomes a serious issue and you have to properly ventilate.

check it out

Tent 70 bucks free shipping
Light 170 bucks free shipping, dimable ballast and both HPS and MH bulbs
Fan 25 bucks free shipping (works in my tent)
Ducting 15 bucks free shipping
Seeds

were up to around 285 bucks without seeds, 4/20 promo at atttitude is going on in 2 days grab a pack of beans and get siome freebies for like 60 bucks

thats 345/400 bucks leaves you enough money to go get a couple of 3 gal nursery pots for 2 bucks each, a couple bags of decent potting mix and some form of nutrients, you should be gtg
how much would i yield with all the stuff. and im trying have an operation on the low... whats the best possible way for that?

higher yeilds come with experience but if you did 6 small plants SoG style you could probally yeild between 5-10 Oz every 12 weeks, of course there are many other ways to grow. you could setup a perpetual and harvest a couple .5-2 Oz plants every 2 weeks eventually.

as far as keeping it on the low, a grow tent is not really "stealth" no matter what way you look at it. if you can put it in a basement corner than thats a good place to hide it. somewhere where there isnt alot of traffic.

:leaf:sorry fellow forumer but the last post was my friend, the same one who gave me the plant. It was ready to harvest i just havent posted up pictures. There is a reason for such a quick harvest, and no it has nothing to do with the plant. She's perfectly healthy.. well idk now she drying out. If i grow again, ill have more experience, less questions, and more updates.
you already know the site for growing and all know how needs... rollitup.org:leaf:
