My first grow (Moneyless Grow Challange)

Grunge

Member
Well I started growing 4 plants after my friend (a grower) gave me some seeds, saying he had no idea which grow they were from. He challenged me to grow it without spending any money. I'm notoriously creative when it comes to creating setups and building things (you should see some of my homemade smoking devices), so when he challenged me I decided that I had nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Here I am 4 weeks later, I put the 3 plants I didn't really care about outside about a week ago and they all were mysteriously eaten : \. This is the only plant I have left, I'm currently using 2 23 watt 1600 lumen CFLs found in my house and a Walmart flourescent grow lamp I found in my basement. The first couple weeks were pretty rough and the plants all stretched because of lack of light.

Tell me what you think!
I'm very well researched on all aspects of growing, having read hundreds of facts and articles, but I'm still very open to suggestions : P

The first picture is of the initial setup, the rest are of Mrs. Dexter (I like it.) The grow is being done in a large square storage cabinet under my bed.

looks good so far. Keep the lights closer to the plant and it will be bushier rather than tall. also... a grow would have to be done outside as you would have to pay for electricity inside.
