Hey so I'm totally new to this. But I've been doing a ton of research and I think I have the basics down. I have a few questions for anyone who wants to help out, that'd be like much appreciated. However, the main point of this thread is that while doing a lot of readings on indoor and outdoor growing, I've created this idea of using a large van as a greenhouse type of system. Obviously with a little remodeling and some added fixtures, but what do you guys think? I'm not living somewhere where I can dedicated an entire room or even a growbox to my new found interest, but I really would like to find a way to grow. I'm way more interested in just keeping this for private use and maybe even experimenting a little, but I would like some opinions from some experienced people. Thanks so much!

you could always try m8 but id say just plant a seed in your backyard and let her grow just tie her down or top her if she gets to tall. but hey i say go for it a little experimenting never hurts anyone does it :p, what are you planning on doing anyways?

A car would prob get way to hot they are more like ovens than greenhouses when the sun is out. You sure u cant fit a small grow tent somewhere they come as small as this>

Yeah I was thinking that I could replace a wall with a greenhouse type material wall. Like I'm not going to use this car to drive, but stick it somewhere where it's not so noticeable and just let check on them every so often. I would love to just grow inside but I'm living on a college campus and the room are subject to search at any time. Plus, I like innovation :)

Ummm only thing i could suggest is extreme ventalation i live on the coast like 30 min from the closest beach and right now if i look at my ext. thermometer reads 103 and its in no direct sunlight all day and when i go out side at 8am i say to myself damn its fucking hot as shit out here its like the devil just farted on me, now that fucking hot when i get in my car i sit for 3 min with the door open passenger and driver befor i even start it and thats even hotter than outside by at least 10 degrees F so id say no unless u got a bunch of money to just throw in the garbage in that case throw it in my recycling bin which i never use

hahahaha, oh dear god. Theses are the kind of people giving weed a bad rep... I was thinking just a few plants, maybe three or four. And more of like an old astrovan or something along the lines of that. If I could hook up a small generator for a fan and some back up lights, it could possibly work, no?
