Kinda New And Need Some Help!

Ok,
This is what I have so far:
A small grow tent made from PVC (About 4' H 2 1/2' L 1 1/2' D)
The plastic is two layers of garbage bags. (Inside white, outside black)

Need some help with lighting tho, I picked up an old lamp and gutted it, how many do I need? Can you get splitters? What's the best light to use, CFL's HPS Incandescent?

I am also stumped on witch seeds to get (ordering off Attitude), I'm on a HUGE budget I am hopping top grow 2-3 plants. Leaning towards White Widow x Big Bud.

Any tips for a beginner?
BTW this is a stealth grow...

And I do have fans for the tent.

hid lights (mh/hps) are the best, but can generate a lot of heat. attitude is great. you can use splitters if you are using cfls. reg incandescent bulbs are crap and will end up with a three foot plant that falls over and dies because it over stretched.

seeds....there are some good breeders. look around. i hope your garbage bags don't melt.
good luck mate.

Thanks, ya, I I have no idea what to do if they melt....

OH, is it worth the extra 10 bucks for the shirt to hide the seeds from customs? Will the candy do?

I'd use cfls in that, what kind of budget are you working with? You can wire up 200-300w of cfl for around $50, which would do 3 plants nicely. I wired 16 of them together with $1 extension cords, pics in my sig.

garbage bags??? use a closet or something.its going to cost alot to get going.I just started growing again and have over 1,000 dollars into my equipment actually even more than that! and im only doing a 6 plant dwc and keeping a mother and cloning.so look to spend some money on your equipment and get it all b4 you start.and if your REALLY new to growing id say try some bag seeds first b4 you invest alot into buying some.buy a growing tent if thats the route you wanna go they come already to go for 500 buks with fan,light and everything you need.

this is not a cheap hobby by any means.if you wanna go cheap then growing outside will be your best bet.find a spot noone knows about or goes to and plant outside.or if you only wanna do 1 plant you can do a stealth computer tower grow.you can find instructions on here to make 1.its easy and cheap but not a whole lot of bud.look up pc grow box build and you will find some info.if your worried bout your parents then they will see a big ass tent 4 sure lol
