Thanks for the kind words!

I assure you I'm in no way hesitant of it. I'm just uneducated on the subject. I'm brand new to the world of organics and just trying to start slow and small so I can get the hang of it.

I'll see what the costs are at my local store and decide which route then. White paint does sound sort of fail proof though so I'm leaning towards that. Kind of on hold until I can get some fans, I'm not really sure how I'm going to tackle that yet. I'm thinking 120mm exhaust fan and a 60mm...

May11th - You're suggestion has been noted. captainkush - Thanks for that link, I've been scouring roll it up and couldn't find anything like it. Fuckin' stoners, eh? lol Nullis - I plan on using rain water the hole way through if weather permits. I'm not sure about my tap water but I wouldn't...

I'm going to be using FFOF for my upcoming grow and I want to amend it to EWC, dolomite lime, and plant-tone as I've heard they are good to add. Can anyone give me ratios for these amendments or any other amendments I might add?

I'm definitely on a budget, so I think that's the route I'm going. I can't wait to start growing in this thing.

Haha yeah, they're so damned useful. Thanks man, I've still got some work to do but I feel like it's coming along nicely. That back light is a bit closer to the wall then I'd like so that may cause issues but I'll deal with that if it comes. What do you think about mylar emergency blankets for...

Went a little crazy with some zip ties but I think I have a promising set up here. If I don't veg long and SCrog I think I can make a full run in this cab. I still need to get some materials. Fans, soil, and something for the walls. Those spots that were thought to be rust are not. It looks like...

I need some ideas on how to light seal this thing too. For the sides I'll probably just put some gasket material but I need ideas for between the top drawer and the grow area.

Yeah, I've seen some pretty dank stuff come from shit schwag seeds so I'm sure I can pull something good off these. So I've changed up things a bit, just mocking it up. Putting the wires in the top drawer really seems to have opened things up. What do you guys think? I would really like to get...

I just have some bagseed right now. some bubba kush and some no name dank from around here, and some supposed girl scout cookies (it did taste a little thin mints and look a little like the GSC i've seen but i'm not 100% it was gsc). I have a ton of "mid grade" seeds I got when I was down in...

DIY shouldn't be an issue but thank you for the concern, if I do decide any DIY I'll be sure to come right here to RIU though. I have plenty of clamp work lamps and I'm just going to put a power strip in the top drawer and hang the lights through the bottom of the drawer. I thought about the...

Hey notballin, thanks for the positivity. As for lights it was much cheaper to get the 23w bulbs compared to say a 125 or 150. I'd love to have one larger bulb but I didn't have $$$ to blow on one. I got 4 2700k and 4 5000k for 15 bucks. Maybe later in the grow I'll upgrade if funds become...

I'm also going to drop to 4 cfl's. I have 4 2700k and 4 5000k. Will the 5000k work for the short veg time I'm planning? Or should I try and bump it to 6500? I know the 2700k are best for flower, will 4 23w be enough to get me through flower? I'm not looking for a large harvest, I'm just looking...

That's entirely possible. I won't know until I get my fans though, I'm not even going to bother testing until then. I plan on 2 exhaust fans and passive intake holes by the way. I think I'm going to get two 150CFM pc fans but we'll see.

Wow, I can't believe I didn't think about that top drawer for all the cords. Good lookin' man. I'm gunna try your ideas and see what I can come up with. If this doesn't work I'm sure I can spare 20 bucks for something on craigslist but I have everything you've mentioned so if I can save a few...

Yeah, I was thinking about getting a small end table or something, this was just at hand with no use and about to be scrapped so I figured I'd try. After putting the lights in there definitely isn't much room. Much less than I was anticipating so I think I'm just going to get something else. It...

OK, so I posted in the CFL section but I realize this section is more my style. Here is what I've got so far... my cab is 26.5Hx14.5Wx18"D, so not a lot of room, and I'm planning on 6 23w cfl bulbs, one passive intake and 2 exhaust fans. I'd like to see what kind of tips and tricks or...

So, here is what I'm working with. I still need to light seal it, get something reflective in there and get my fans set up.. I think I'm just going to use some computer paper instead of mylar since I can't find mylar anywhere near me and computer paper is cheap. I know the middle door looks...

How old is the plant now? No problems with feeding that early in life? I've always heard feeding before 2 weeks can be quite detrimental to a seedling.
