Germinating 2 Big Boy tomato plants to grow in my dresser sized grow cabinet for some fun. It is well ventilated with temps in the 80's with a 250 watt HPS lighting. I was thinking 18/6 cycle. Both plants will be planted in the same 3 gallon bucket using foxfarm ocean soil. Any tips??? I figure I will need to guide/train this sucker as it grows.

The Cabinet is retired from it's "personal grow" purpose as I am now stocked up for a long time- suffice to say that the grow box works great. I can't just let it sit there unused. Tomatoes will be fun I think.

Growing big boys, warning, they are HUGE! Love red light when you are starting them out too. Be prepared, you might have just enough room for 1. Big boys can be 3 feet in diameter and 6 feet tall under ideal growing situations...
