This was never meant to be a serious grow, we just wanted to have a go with the resources we had available.
We found some seeds in a recent batch we had and decided to try germinate them which was a success using damp cotton wool pads,
we planted the seeds in small pots using soil from a plant pot we found in the back garden lol.
I lined out a kitchen cupboard with foil ! and bought a lamp holder which i fitted with a 100watt incandescent bulb (they stretched, suprise suprise)
cost so far:- 2 pounds 50 pence for the bulb holder.
after realising i was wasting my time with the normal bulb i checked all the bulbs in the house and found a 20watt CFL which i decided to use instead.
at this point i transplanted the seedlings into 2 litre pop bottles which i cut in half. I also made a reflector using a beer can and added some pc fans which i wired to a nokia phone charger.
after a couple of days under this setup they seemed to be doing ok (ish)
I purchased a 200watt envirolite as we plan on a serious grow eventually but it will be a case of buying things bit by bit over the next few months.
I cleared out and foil lined a closet that is 20"W x 30"D. The height i can adjust easily up to 5 feet.
the following pics are taken after a couple of days of their re-housing.
Thanks for looking. any comments or advice is greatly appreciated on this amateur grow.
