yeah that pretty much is what i have in mind. lookin good. i just wish i didn't need a carbon filter for odor control sucks ass to spend 140 bucks on something that should be more simple lol

different question if you don't mind how are you liking my stuff? lol do i need a certain number of post or something to be able to like a post and message someone?
Well, I only use 1 can fan booster (220cfm) to cool my light...temp never goes above 80 with the tent closed. So that will save some $ on a second fan that you don't need.

yeah i'm going to start with one and see how it goes mostly worried about summertime. i may even look into a DIY carbon filter just to save some cash i only wanna do 1 or 2 plants until i get the hang of it then add a couple but can't legally go more then 4.

i wouldn't be worried about the smell because my house alway's smells like bud anyway but there's a different smell from smoking and while growing lol i don't want 2 plants to have people knockin on my door

also is there any MH/HPS bulbs you recommend for a 400w?

TBH I never really did a lot of research on who produces the best lights, I suppose I will for my next lights. But when I got these I figured 400w is 400w. I think I am using Hortilux now...not sure though

Great selection...a shit load of different breeders, great prices and no need to buy full packs, never had a femmed seed go hermie on me, quick reliable shipping, and GREAT promos! Wait until next moth...nice promos for the holiday!

I prefer to grow from seed and I like variety so I use them. Anyway, I don't want to grow clones from anyone else's plant. You never know what you get unless you know the grower and how the plant was grown AND see the clone cut with your own eyes.

are they able to ship to the united states? only thing im worried about ordering seeds is they get confiscated before i get them or i get in trouble for it lol

I am in the U.S. never had a confiscation or delivery problem at all ever. They even guarantee shipping. The $15.00 shipping cost is worth it...usually takes about 10 days.

Ya know...I never heard of someone actually getting busted for purchasing seeds online. I know Marc Emery was WRONGFULLY jailed for selling them...but I have never heard tale of a buyer being busted. May not be anyone?

Autos are cool and good choice for a first grow. Of course yield is subjective and directly effected by the grower.

My best suggestion is to read and learn all you can...the search button is your friend. The more you know...the more you'll grow.

And with a small tent be sure to study training techniques like SOG, Scrog, and LST

Good Luck and Great Growz

Check out a 40x40 tent.. I know it doesn't seem like much but I much prefer my 40x40 to my 36x36.. I ended up sniping a "mars hydro" 40x40 off ebay for the super low and imo it is a superior tent to my secret jardin 3x3 that cost me like 3x the $

LEDs are cool and all (spent a lot of money on area51 panels.. made a few cob panels) but I prefer my 315w Sun System..

Basically if I had it all to do again I wouldn't have paid all the $ for a premium tent and I would have only bought 315 LEC/CMHs. Also, I never would have wasted my time growing my auto freebies that one time. Autos are a waste of time and money imo (you end up using the same amount of electricity and the smoke was subpar) but there are people who say otherwise.

And last but certainly not least.. There are wayyy too many quality seedbanks in the US to even risk any green tape unless you have a certain strain that you can only find overseas.

Good luck!

Autos have came a long way in last 5 years. I couldn't get me to start a auto seed if u paid me to. But my thoughts have changed. I pull anywhere from 3 1/2 pounds to 5lbs in 65-70 days from seed. An the smoke is fantastic! Will not waste my time with photos inside. I wait until spring an an put all photos outside. Check out my journals. Last journal quit letting me post pic an won't let me post them here either. Autos r badass these days. Deal with Herbies Auto an there seeds r top notch. I get 4-5x the weight they say also use DWC. Happy growing..bongsmilie

I know there are more than a couple of people who share your opinion but I'm only speaking from my personal, albeit limited, auto experience. I think I grew 4 or 6 autos a couple years ago that were freebies from a couple seedbanks. The candy cheese auto was the only one that was even half way decent but the high was definitely auto. Unfortunately that experience put a bad taste in my mouth when it comes to autos.

What are some of your favorite auto strains?

what are some good seed banks in the US? and i just don't have the room for a 4x4 if i did that's what i'd get i got this awkward little corner in my room that is perfectly 36x36 so yeah and it's pretty much not just Auto's just seeds in general i'd like to order so i knew i was getting certain strains etc.

You can have it out side of the tent perfectly fine, just make sure you have the fan facing correct or you are going to make a big mess with your filter heh..

Not a seed bank in the US, http://www.marijuana-seeds.nl/

Good prices, stealth, and never had an issue.
