My "ghetto grow"

***UPDATE***

Hello everyone.This is what I call my "ghetto grow."Haha

The reasons why its ghetto

1.SOIL-No potting soil.I used soil from my yard.Leaves,worms,twigs...Lolol!I took out things like acorns,anything along the likes of broken plastic,bottles or anything like that.

2.SEED-A seed I found in a bag I bought a while back.Lol.I have no clue what kind it is or anything.

3.NUTES-I have banana peels and apples as compost,I used epsome salt for nitrogen,then I got a little box of Miracle Grow.

4.THE ROOM-Its a closet in a camper.Lol.
I have aluminum foil all in it,and I have 3 DIFFERENT kinds of lights in it.

I dont have the money for lights,nutes,soil,etc.So if there is anything you guys can teach me,by all means,teach me. ^_^ Im always happy to learn.
I know how to grow a plant,but not exactly marijuana.I have tried once before,and as soon as i started to think,"hell yea its gettin bigger!",it died.

Any help would be great.Tips on how I can set up my grow room,what I should do as my plant grows,etc.
No negative comments please.I dont mind critisim,but there is a fine line between those two.Haha


Ill post pics soon.Im not exactly sure how old my plant is,maybe two months or so.

Let me know what you guys think

You are really going to need lights, look at some CFL's cool white for vegging the plant and then some warm white for flowering
But good luck

I see pics. I'm a newbie myself so I can only pass on the advice that was passed on to me and read.

Your gonna need more lights. I don't see a little fan either. Little fan would be nice too.

Good Luck, Sir

go to walmart and by some 23watt cfls keep the lights you got and add the cfls you bought about 3 inches from the plant. get as many lights in there as you can. take the tinfoil down. when you do get more lights tinfoil "cooks" the plants. use white paint or mylar if you have money. put a fan in there. when you add more lights you will need to have a fan blowing out and one blowing in. get a bigger grow space. when your plant starts to flower it will double in size. transplant your plant into a bigger pot too when you change your setup a lil bit. and when you transplant into a bigger pot add topsoil. 1.96 dollars at walmart. also get rid of the miracle grow. get peters or shultz fertilizer they are the cheapest. and once a month add 2 tablespoons of syrup or molasses to a 2 liter bottle of water and water with that. it puts carbs in the dirt to help the micro-organisms with their processing

besides that your on the right track

lol hahahahahaha thats was pretty funny.

it looks like u got the concept of every thing. ur gonna need way more lights.get cfls their pretty cheap.65k for veg and 27k for flowering. and get rid of the tin foil its no good,it will make spots on ur leaves because it make a lot of heat.ur better off just painting the walls FLAT WHITE its way better.and wen ever u have enough money got to ur hydroponic store and get u some fox farm ocean forest soil, also the nutes fox farm triple pack and ull be on ur way to a way better grow.

also get alot of cfls hope this helps some

just remember your plant will double in size when you flower. i assume your still in veggie mode with the lights on 18 to 24 hrs a day. when your ready change it to 12/12 and when lights are off make sure theres no light leaking in. you can go as far as learning how to top a plant when your veggie mode. it will give you two or more main colas instead of one. its well worth reading up on.

damn bro i gotta give kudos to this lol this is how i grew weed for like years same shit dirt out the back yard, aluminum foil, one little 23 watt cfl, and no nutes. but the fact of the matter is you will be lucky to get four grams, and even then it prolly wont be good. i recomend gettin the 43 watt cfl the run about 8 dollars and put out about 2,800 lumens get 4 or five and you will be straight good luck tho ninja i just had to stop n give some advice cause this was me a year ago. shit im still broke the only reason i have a 150 watt hps is cause i stole it off of the side of a save-a-lot grocery store, but dont let nobody say it cant be done i took a plat through it whole life with one 13 watt cfl, it grew slow as fuck but these mother fuckers dont understand when youre poor you have to go with what you got, peace ninja

hahahaa thats pretty funny..

i started out with my dads fluro light he uses for reading n nothin else. that was ghetto as hell too but i dint really intend on growing like i am now i was just seeing if i could still germinate beaners and grow them. well as soon as they sprouted n started growing i fell in luv with growin POT. dont worry if ppl shoot u down for ur set up everyone works up from the ground sometime in their lives. shit i did i had no fuckin idea what there was involved with growin until i found this site n learned mostly what i know now. goodluck with ur's dude. but really more lights more weed..

1st - Get rid of the miracle grow. It will fuck up your plant big time.

2nd - Get rid of the aluminum foil. It absorbs colors and lights, doesn't reflect them. You should use Mylar if you can find it. If not, just paint the inside white.

3rd - you are really going to need better lights. You should be able to find some cheap CFLs. I found a 4 pack of 23W (75W) for $5
