Whats up guys! So im currently working on starting my first grow! Its going to be in a small closet space, using 4x 40W CFL´s and probably a SCRoG!
So this is the closet:

not really big, is it? it´s about 48x77cm (19x31 inches).
I´m going to be growing think different and possibly purple kush, using All mix soil and fish mix and bio bloom nutes. just ordered them. The closet will be all ready to go and seeds will be starting to germinate this monday!

so right now i have two questions:
1- do you think i can fit 2 ladies in this space (1 Think Different + 1 Purple Kush) or will i be safer just going with the TD?
2- ventilation: im going to put a fan inside the closet to move the air around, but i really cant drill anymore holes in the closet, so i wont be putting an exhaust fan. Anyone has any ideas on how to get the air moving without drilling the closet ( preferrably cheap btw, as im completely broke), or will the fan inside be enough?

Thanks, and good tokes :stylez rasta smoke:
 
Really similar setup as mine. Looking forward to it. You should leave it open for air exchange and also it helps with the heat.
 
Can you get another CFL to push you to the 200W mark?

How do you plan on distributing the CFLs? What color are the CFLs?

Looks like you're in a "shared" space.. (pretty small "closet") is that why you can't make an exhaust? Exhaust is pretty important because not only does the air have to move around in there the stale air has to come out. You're going to need a form of odor control as well depending on the success of the plants. I'd go with just the Think Different and maximize her.. what size pot is she going in?
 
Welcome to the Family Shaggy :pass: im all sub'd up , and when you can stop over to the intro section and say hello to the other members , you can also put a link in your hello Mess. to this thread..:gthumb:
 
i currently have 1x 6400K 40W and 1x 6500K 45W i was hoping to find 2 50W or 40W 2700K to mix the spectrums a little. if not ill just go with 6500K again. I've also been thinking on getting one or two more 20W, but i dont know how that will affect the electricity bill. wouldnt want my landlord to get suspicious :no:
im going to build a reflector similar to this one: How To Build a CFL Grow Light Fixture - CHEAP! - YouTube except ill have 4 (or 6) bulbs.
im living in a rented room and the closet´s not mine, so its not a really good idea to drill a huge hole.
the pot is 34x28cm (not really sure how much soil i can fit inside it)
glad to have people helping out already! :D

will do! thanks :stylez rasta smoke:
 
Nice to see another Bio Bizz grower and i would stick to just the TD she can get big lol What size pots was you thinking of using? Hop digity
 
Hey hey heY !
Good luck with your grow buddy! using bio-bizz aswell!
I dropped 3 mj's in my closet and I gotta say, its pretty dense here!
So I would definitely suggest just growing TD for the first time, especially because the plant can reach around a meter high and yield 90 and more grms. (can do 300-500 grm in optimal conditions)

Good Lucks and Ill come by often to check on ya :)

i´ve read great things about bio bizz!
the pot i currently have in the closet is 34x27cm (13.4x11inches) i dont know exactly how much soil fits in it but im hoping about 8L!
 
Welcome, Shaggy!
8L should equal 1 gallon dry... I'm old, it's late, but a 13.4 X 11 pot should be in the 5 gallon (22 to 30 liter) range, depending on the taper of your pot, who made it and your soil type.
Your gal will love it!
