New Grower Soil question
- Thread starter FallingSnow
- Start date
Only way i can see to shrink my grow space is trying to find a way to setup a block in within the closet without damaging the closet itself. i'm trying to think of way to shrink the clsoet for just 2 plants without damaging the closet or spending anything and using stuf around the house...
maybe i can get a better idea of plans if i could get a just of general dimensions needed for 2 plants in one space through its entire cycle?
i could build a growbox but im terrible with carpentry lol.
anyways if anyone has any ideas on how to break the closet down for better growth ill be here daily asking questions and learning before next grow.
These forums are so addictive due to such the high volume of content T_T. i wanted to go to bed 2 hours ago but i just cant help but ask questions and read.
screw it im getting off before im on here until 5 am lol.
Be back here in the morning to continue getting the help i need and get to know the community better.
If you want pictures of the grow area let me know here and i'll do my best to get the pictures with the webcam. i should be able to get a decent picture as well as give you the measurements of the room and all the info you need. just ask about something and ill answer it to the best of my ability. i see this being a good way to get going as well.

I used a cardboard box as a partition its ghetto but the plants dont care. You'll figure out how to prop it up without doing damage. With the lights you have now id go for 2'x2' area.:tiphat:

checking that out now. i'm growing with friend so two people should definitely be able to build a 2 by 2 partition.
now is that 2 by 2 for both 3 gal pots? or 2 different partitions per plant?
also should i paint the cardboard white like the walls in the closet or will it be fine?
oh and i forgot to mention i do have another 12 pack of 23 watt cfls but they are all 2700k like the ones currently setup in closet. also dont have any of the adapters or anything yet so haven't been able to hook em up.

Now were getting somewhere as far as grow area set the pots beside each other and leave a little elbow room for each, thats the grow area size no bigger then necessary. I would find a grow that has your strain and see how much spread it has, then youll know how much room you need. None of this is etched in stone its a common sense thing. All that gear your getting is nice but im not the one to be answering much about that, im a KISS grower i dont do techie grows like i should. We have plenty of folks to help you with that end of it but were not there yet. Now you have the grow area dialed in get into the lighting section and figure what you need for lighting and concentrate on that and setting it up. Make sure you spend some time in the soil section and learn your mixes and aging process if needed as this was one of your biggest problems. I going off line now i'll ck back tomorrow looking good so far:thumbs:

awesome yea i plan on using a soi mixture i read in this thread.
for the lights though i plan on using just cfl's for this and 23 watt at that... like i said i have 4 per plant right now all 2700k 23 watts. i have 12 more of the same bulbs i can use if needed. anyways about how many bulbs would you recommend per plant? also whats the other kelvin i needed again?
also whats a simple method of stringing up cfl lights lol. cant really afford purchasing huge items for them to plug into

just finished reading and i will need some 6500k cfls for optimal veg growth.
anyways the humidifier i have is a cigar one. it says it will keep a constant 60% rh.... will that work for a tiny grow area. ive also ghetto rigged the closet for one plant with cardboard. actually very easy now i'm just not sure if i should do soemthing to help reflection with the cardboard or leave it as is since the light is so much more compacted....
ill upload some pictures later today.
