Ok no BullS**t

i use 3 gal mop buckets from the dollar store
if growing indoors you will need to mix some perlite with your soil to promote drainage a overwatered auto almost totally stops growing and it will stunt it permanently

pot
perlite
soil / organic potting mix stay away from time release and garden soil
light or lights you really need atleast 100 w a plant the more the better i use 2700k 68w cfl's for 12 hr's a day and a hps at night
honestly you would better off with a hps if you have the space for it
cfl's like all bulb lose there kick but they do it at around 6 months so your 50 bucks in lights lose value and need to be replaced a hps bulb also goes bad but its like 20-80 bucks depending on what you want
so in the long run on maint is cheaper
i got one of these and really liked it http://www.ebay.com/itm/Apollo-400-Watt-400w-MH-HPS-Grow-Light-Lamp-System-Set-for-Plant-Growing/190843921052?rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.m1851&_trkparms=aid=222002&algo=SIC.FIT&ao=1&asc=261&meid=8913995952974184577&pid=100005&prg=1088&rk=1&sd=230840062756&

you can use what ever but you get denser buds from hps or led
led is a dollar a watt basically and you cant replace the bulbs in a practical sense

small fan for air movement
some kind of odor control
bloom nutes
the soil will more or less hold you over until bloom
but will lack in flower

id use like a 75/25 soil/perlite mix

nice list..i dont have a fan but i keep my ac on full blast all the time anyway but besides that i think i have low magnesium...right now im using http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/home_blog/2009/08/the-deal-99-cents-stores-organic-potting-soil.html
that potting soil i bought from the 99 cent store it has perlite in it...but that mop bucket thing im gonna have to try...im gonna need to poke some holes in the bottom though...but besides that i have 3 6500k cfl's that are 1600 lumens each and 1 2700k cfl that is 900 lumens...they are all hanging over my ONE plant...that should be more than enough as it brightens my room from my damn closet lmao but yeah i gave my smaller plant to my neighbor because i wanted to focus on one plant as it was already looking healthy...

ya if your having mag issues its probably from a lack of calcium that will lock out mag
and i was meaning a fan to blow on the plants its needed for stem development
and you should use extra perlite especially with lower heat lights

you know what i will ask my mother in law for some epsom salt for that issue...but yeah its weird my stem is growing pretty strong already...about the same speed as the ones i had outside...idk why but its pretty strong prob because i rub the leaves every day and smell them and wiggle the stem a bit to check the strength

im out bud if you have any other questions just message me or what ever
