So, I'm looking into growing my first plant

Liar · Mar 19, 2009

I've never grew any plant in my life period. I'm just looking to grow a few basic seeds I got in some reg out here. However, I want to do it indoors, so what kind of lightening would you suggest?

Any tips will be appreciated

Also, I don't have 7654324567 to spend, lol

growing one plant inside on a budget? same here. I had an old clothes hamper made out of pvc pipe with a net bag. took off the bag, got two car sunblock shapes from the dollar store($3.00 ea), wraped one around, one goes over top. go to hardware store, buy 2 socket lamp kits, includes socket and cord that you attach, easy. buy two cfl 26watt, "Daylight", not softwhite, not good enought, and the lights you can use velcro strips to hang the lights or get the clamp on already made socket set with the reflector on it, maybe $8.00?. then when you want to flower you'll need to beef it up alittle, more lights and then go with the softer white 26watts. I now have two set-ups one for the vegging and one for the clones. the mother plant is outside now. good luck ,don't forget to get a small clip-on fan also.

this is about it...one thing to add go to the riu faq and look up the co2 mixture, 20oz bottle half full 1 cup of sugar and 2 tsp of live active yeast, this will produce co2 when u shake it and open it. i noticed a large difference when i did this
