hey, i just started growing indoors i planted a couple and they have poped out of the soil and have a couple of leaves on them it been about a couple weeks. I have it in a closet in a box right now under a 150w light for now. I want to know if what im doing is ok so far. I will be posting pictures in a day to show you what im working with. Also the spot its in is temporary till me and my friend build a nice size wooden box to put a good amount of plants in and set the inside up. Any suggestions on how to set up the the little room and what supplies to use. i would really appreciate it, thank you..

i would get couple mroe of those 150 equiv cfls that are 6500k. Im flowering with 7 42watt cfl and 4 26watt (mixing kelvins was a good tip i heard for flowering, not vegging). I would just make sure temps are okay, im thinking you done a little research on that. Humidity too that can be a bitch. Make sure ur shit is light tight for flowering, veg'n u dont have to worry to much but still would keep it light tight. 18/6 for however long then 12/12 flower. Bewm.

If you are usign cfl's throughout the grow, go with the 150 watt equiv or higher during flower stage. You also want to look into LST since cfl lights dont penetrate as well as hps or mh bulbs. I used cfl my grow + LST and it makes SO many tops, look at my advitar.

Dont use that thing once again. Figure out how big you want ur plant to be / tall - and then figure out the distance from the lights to the plants (they should be 1-2'' close). Make sure its wide enough for lights + plants as well as hiegth. Use some Y splitters also. Google is cool tool.
