Hey Yall!! So This is my 1st Attempt at a CFL Grow or Any Grow at all for that Matter!! Im Using My Bedroom Wardrobe/Cabinet... Iv Set up the Germ/Seedling Room so Far On The Right Side but The Left side isnt big enough to fit my Envirolite + Hanger so im screwed once the plant outgrows the Germ/Seedling Room, ill have to get a new Wardrobe or something.. But Anyhow im 2 Days in, The Seed is in a Peat Pot Using JAB John Innes Soil Based Compost Seed Stage + Perlite + Vermiculite and Small Touch of Sand at Bottom For Drainage, and a Small Touch of Cinnamon to Stop Any Mold Infections Should They Break Out.. Using 3 Daylight CFL's Held in Place via Plastic Bottles, Tin Foil as Reflective Material and just Sealing up the Cabinet Door with Masking Tape and a towel Laid Over The Door to Stop Light Esacping/Getting Through.. This is a Budget Grow But I Think Its Effective, i Havnt Got my Temp Gauge or Fan Yet But its a Steady 20c+ in there i wreckon, im opening the door a couple times a day to Refresh The Air. About The Skunk im Growing Well i dont Know what its Called, Might be Some Super Skunk Smells Very Fruity But i brought £20 worth the other week From a Dealer and Luckilly found a seed Like u do, Put it in a Pot and it poped within 2 days!! its looking healthy to so Fingures Crossed!! Iv Taken a Picture of The Skunk The Seed Came From to Giv u an idea of what the Finished Product May Look Like!! ... Anyhow i'll Keep u Updated as The Grow Progresses with Pics Ect Here is The First 2 Days Of 18-6 Light/Dark... Any Help/Feedback Greaty Appriciated Many Regards and Happy Toking!! :leaf:

yo man-real hardcore ghetto setup you got going on bro.i really like your bottle holder light idea man-fucking simple and briliant.props 4 you.
a few tips man-dont use that stupid ass tin-foil-it absorbes so much light than reflects.use whit plastic sheets or mylar.simplest and easyest way is just to paint your grow room plain white-works as great as mylar.whatt wattages are those cfls-looks really low-get some more lights-6 will be good- 8-10 is even better.


keep up the good work man.
