so of course, first you need to germinate some seeds and plant them into jiffypots.
thats not the jiffy pots...thats the jiffy pellets...and i read on several sites...most people have bad things to say about the pellets...retains too much moisture and eventually leads to root rot...jiffy peat cups on the other hand are recomended a lot of times...your grow though...use what you want to...good luck

yes they make the cups...some people here call them dirt cups...they sell them at wal-mart,home depot and lowes...put your soil in them and plant your seed or clone...when you get your roots established you can plant entire cup in a larger pot...roots grow through then

I was reading another Fridge grow and the biggest issue seemed to be heat, and letting them veg too long. To ensure you have the space at the end of flowering it probably is a good idea to keep on top of them with LST and get them into flower as soon as possible.

As far as heat goes, with an enclosed space like that a exhaust and intake fan are a must which might require you to cut up the back of the fridge a wee bit. Don't drink the cooling juice... good luck!

sweet fuckin deal! posts!
im workin on the cutting holes thing its gonna require me putting in fire wood for my old man so he will let me use his sawsall to cut the venting holes. ill be using exterior dryer vent covers on the backside and some sort of backing plate on the inside to make sure it seals totally (the old insulation in the fridge is probley best left to stay inside)

i already have 3 sprouts cracked from the pile of seeds i dumped onto some tissue the other night! gotta get $30 togeather quick and buy myself the proper light socket at canadian tire and get things wired up.
for now ill use a lizard lamp with a CFL bulb (the wattage works, i stole it from a buddys apartment building) the bulb im using says spring light and 120V @ 60 Hz / 13W @ 200A... wtf that means. spring light.... leaf as company logo. works for me.
