I need help! There is to much to choose from, I want to grow indoors in a cabinet about 48 W x 24 D x 78 T. Money is'nt realy a issue (don't realy want to waste any. I have been reading so many different opinions and stories about hydro/aeroponics and fogers and don't know which way would be best for my grow. This is for personel use for me and the wife and we like to smoke so I need to get as much yeild out of each crop as well. Any sugestions about which setup/seeds would workout better or any high yeild short propragition times and ease of growth indoors would be great. As well as the strength of bulb. Do you think co2 would be needed for this type of build???

alright the easiest way would be to get some diesel ryder seeds and an aerogarden. I have 5 of these aerogardens and get about 3-4 ounces per aerogarden about every 2 months.

Another way would be to build an aeroponic system
(http://forum.greenmangardens.net/Vanilla/comments.php?DiscussionID=5&page=1#Item_0)
and use metal halide bulbs for vegging and High pressure sodium bulbs for budding. the rule of thumb i believe is with a reflector 100 watts per ft2. so you'd either need two 400 watt bulbs(better) or one 1000watt bulb(more wattage not as versetile of coverage)

SOG/ScrOG would be the best method for you to grow its quicker than most other methods and you could split your cab and have a lot of plants going. i personally smoke 2-3o's per month so my method is working pretty good for me anyway.

DWC would be much easier for you to build and be way easier on the wallet you can build a system for under 60$ minus the lights.

Anyway you should look into those three options or grow in soil. Good luck and happy growing:bigjoint:
