what do you think of my low bugdet grow?

hey roll it up I started a grow trying to keep a low budget I started in a small green house now I have a 4'x8'x7' room useing a 1000 watt red spectrum mh. and my second room is 5'x5'x7 using 1 t12 shop light and 6x65w cfl'shere is how the rooms started. now I made some progress they are not done obviously. I am using general hydroponicsnutes, the flora-line. have the grow, bloom and florabloom. and have been using regular organic soil and pete moss mix but plan to change that to peralite, not sure on the soiland pete moss. I have spent under 400$ on my whole prosess with used ballest for 75$ the wood only cost 45, but was given to me. got free pots from the local gardening surplus. about 75 in nutes. spent 40 on big relector. and 50 for a 3month used mh light. free cfls.and my soiland sealers and paint I would say maybe 100. here is some of my girls 34 days into flower. I want to brag about the size so I have to show you guys these pics aswell from 3 days ago. so what do you guys think? any questions will be answered. and I would like to hear any suggestions or comments. thanks for your time....

Looks like a lost cause. But to prove my point keep growing it, harvest it, dry and cure it and send it to me. I will validate it was a waste of time by smoking it.

Looks great and a grower after my own heart. Use used. Use it up, wear it out, make it do. Check your areas, readers, for home building materials supply places that are all reused/recycled. Great sources for lights, plumbing fixtures, pumps, A/Cs etc for much less than new and easier on our environment.

Keep it up!

Looks like a damn sweet set-up dude - never knock a budget DIY job as is amazing what use u can turn random things to & i always love getting a bargain when shopping too!

Plants looks cool & healthy too - the one other thing i loved was how delicately u'd balanced & smuggled the pepsi can into all the size comparision pics! lol! was good!

thanks This is my first real grow. had one plant finnish but is was small. just over an oz. can't wait for this to finnish so i can taste it. I had to laugh at your joke hot rod.

Looks amazin dood, so how much have you spent?

He has everything broken down price wise, did you even read the first post?

It looks to me like after this harvest you'll be able to get some upgrades, good shit man. How are you handling the temps? Doesn't seem like you have any ventilation.

Doh!! Too busy looking at the pics, I cant read anyway.

Looks amazing! I will be going to 1000 dual ballast in a month or so. Will be throwing in window air as well. Cant wait. Keep up the great green.

Looks good. I like the DIY approach.

I don't need vent right now, I leave the door open in the light hours and seal her up in the dark hours. I have a window a/c that keeps the room around 75 without the ventalation. and a box fan moving the air around more. next is a cloner so i can just keep the flow going. and I have to paint and seal the veg room. but I have to wait because I will be moving in 2-6 months. more twordsthe 6, my next set up will be 100% right

nice work.

good on ya bro!

my plants prefer coca cola, but hey, looks great otherwise.
