Im interested in making a grow box suitable for 2-3 plants.
This will be my first organized grow (by that I mean, doing it the proper way, atleast as close to that as I can)
Ive got the seeds germianted and currently under two 100 watt cfl's. I ended up having 5 seeds germinate on me, I tried 5 because two of them looked shrivled and didnt think they would germ.
Ive got a few questions that I was hopin you all could help with.
I have about 4 ft of height where I would like to place the box, and roughly 36 inches width, can this be sufficient space for a decent yield plant ?
Is two 100 watt CFL's enough light? Should I add a third ?
I live in the midwest, and my apartment gets cool at night because it is too expensive to heat while i sleep. Can I put at heatpad at the bottom of my grow box to counteract that ? I only really worry about the temps during my dark cycle. But I suppose the heat pad might keep a more constant temp, which is what im looking for i think.
Im also looking for some sort of reflective sheeting, because aluminum foil seems so low budget to me. Insulated would be great.
Any suggestions would be great, Id preferrably like to build it out of wood, because I have access to whatever i would need in that case.
