Looking to grow for personal use

Im looking to grow a plant for personal use. I dont know if I would need more than one plant to have a steady supply, thats why im here. Also I have read alot on here and Im still a little confused as to exactly what i will need. ie Lights. I will be using a small closet that is in my room

Also are those websites seed websites actually reliable, and if so what kinda seeds would u suggest for a new grower, and something that will have me higher than ive ever been :weed:

What's not a lot of money? If you want to do it on the cheap then you can try the CFL route but I would suggest going with a HIDs.
The cheapest easiest way would be to get some 3 to 5 gallon containers fill with a good potting soil and grow it under a proper CFL or HID.
Get an all-purpose fertilizer like "peters" and don't feed it or water it too much. Veg the plant 18/6 for a few weeks then turn the lights to 12/12 and flower for 9 - 12 weeks until done.

Lots of people order seeds without any problems. Check them out and get some that speak out to you. Don't get overwhelmed just get something that sounds like you want. you can always try another in the future.
 
What size closet Grab a tape and give us dimensions and everyone has a limit and set one or you will have this closet looking like something from outerspace. First timer grow some bag seed for the first time unless you can get a hold of some clones. Get the first grow to harvest then spend money on seeds thats what i recommend. Get a good soil (if your going soil)and a light that you will need for that size closet is there enough room for a fan for air flow?

the closet is about 4 feet wide, at about 2 feet deep...

what would be some good soil, and a good light to get?

Check out my first grow journal. it's in my sig. I didn't know wtf I was doing and still ended up with some good smoke. I grow for personal smoke also and like you have no limit on money but just wanted to keep it cheap and simple.

I spent the money on the good soil cuz I just think it's worth it. any questions just ask.. it's easier than you think. waiting is the hard part.

400 watt mh/hps switchable light, 4 plants, 3 gallon containers, a light/good quality potting soil, and jack's classic dynamic duo all purpose fertilizers. that's just what i would do. get an indica dominant strain and if you want something easy then you can't go wrong with white widow or northern lights.

Ok. You are approaching this all wrong. In just a few posts, you asked about 5 questions, one leading to another and another.

You need to get a book. There are tons of them out there. If you dont want to read, then search youtube for videos. There are some great ones out there. While all this is going on, save your money. Save until you have around $300. By then, you will have enough information to build a basic grow room for around $300.

Your first grow wont be very impressive. Its more for learning than anything else. Just like when you try anything new for the first time.

This will help you out:
Stick to soil for your first few grows.
It will take about 5 months from seed to smoke.
If you get an oz per plant, you are doing great.

There are about 10,000 steps to growing cannabis. Learn 9000 of them and then ask about the rest.
