well space is a problem thats why im only growing the one plant, my growing box is only 1x1ft by 2ft tall, i know its small but im growing a msaterlow which grows small anyway, i have a fan sorted and thats about it, i need lights good enough but small enough to fit in such a small space, any ideas?
cheers.

have you even grown anything yet ? If your still getting lights and stuff, I wouldnt like them odds, spending all that time for 1 plant and it turns out to be male.

Inless its a clone ?

well im gonna grow 5 seedlings soon to start in the next few days, there must be a good chance out of five that one is female? also its a masterlow strain in which case you can supposedly tell males from females withing the first two weeks.

Optimun treatment: Don't get mad soil growers, for yield not quality.

Hydro
Foxfarm or Dr. Hornsby's nutes...or any other good hydro nutes
400+ hps light for flowering
Some cfl's for veg, or if your talking optimum go metal halide.
distilled water or a reverse osmosis filter
good exhaust and intake fans.
Mylar or something of the equivalent.
I know I'm forgetting some stuff, so I apologize. Figure after you spend about $700+ then you'll have the optimum setup.

I ain't using hydro methods man, also plans have changed and I am growing Afghani Riders now, and probably four of the buggers, in a large cabinety affair.
I assume about 4 "home made" c02 bottles with suffice (replaced when needs be ob viously).
What total wattage would people recommend for 4 plants?
I am using (ideally) CFL's.

Keep it jolly
