ok, here we go. i have always wanted to do this and when my fish die, i turned that tank into my first grow box.
Grow Box:
I got one GLO-LIGHT, that came with the tank(i thinks it like 40watts) then i got a 25" fluorecent light(34watts), and also a 60watt regular white house light in the middle. I bought some miracle grow organic blend for like tomatos and herbs and shit. Its a .10-.05-.10 blend. I tinfoiled the whole tank, and use a 6" fan for ventalation.
Plants:
I got some 1 day old clones. I once had them in some small cups, not the best idea, because i overwatered them I have had them for 4 days now and they seem to be coming back They just got transplanted into the soil today. I now only feed them once every other day with pure spring water(6.4ph). Thet get 18/6 of light and fan. The mix between the light and the fan makes a great tempature at 72. Also i spay water onto the leaves just before i turn off my lights since tha are such young clones. Be nice, i know they are not the best looking plants but they are my first babies and they had a few rough days.
Plans:
I am going to get 4 more plants to put into the front row of the tank. I want to get another 25"flourecent light for the other side of the grow box. hoping to let all the plants get to around 1 foot before i move them to 12/12 for light. I am hoping to get like 2oz or so. What do you guy think and any suggestions i will be very thankful.
