Hey Guys,
I though it might be kind of cool to document my very first (indoor) grow. One day hopefully I can look back at this and see how far I've come ; )
~~~(Any pointers are greatly appreciated)~~~
My first step is to modify a spare clothes closet-ON A BUDGET of $30-I'm going to do this by:
-building a shelf/light bar
-covering walls with reflective material
-working out a ventilation system
-also, I'm going to create a light proof area at the top of the closet for germination and cloning so it can be on a separate light cycle from the area down below.
I decided to cover the walls with aluminum because my budget is tight (I did get heavy duty Reynolds Wrap, not store brand)
Next I cut two 6" holes. One in the door, and the other in the wall. As it turns out I was about to tap into an old chimney for my fresh incoming air, and I have the exhaust running out the door. I don't have a carbon filter but I do have one of the Oreck Ionic air purifier.
exhaust hole in the door w/ hook for fan
6" Desk fan purchased @ Big Box store for $5, end of season score!
from the outside, nice, tidy, and unassuming...
I ran into a problem with light leaking out so I decided to make a light trap. I recycled it out of a cardboard box that my vaporizer came in, and wrapped it in aluminum leftover from the wall covering.

Still waiting on UPS to deliver the lights though. I ordered this complete set on amazon. I hope it's a pretty good set-up the price was awesome!
Seeds are in the mail as well
10 White Widow seeds plus 5 free mystery seeds from Marijuanaseeds.nl
I'll update again once I get those babies germinating
-Cheers!
