Me and my friend are going to try and buy some seeds online and plant them under his basement stairs. Is this a good idea? Should we worry about mold? Bugs? Any help for a beginner is appreciated!

Can you block it off from light?

yes mold and bugs need to be considered.

clean the area thoroughly with watered bleach or some disinfectant.

Can you get ample ventilation, lighting ect. is there access to water?

These are all concerns for growers

Ohh and number one: is it secure from intruders, parents, landlords ect

Hey dude welcome. Growing under the stairs sounds like a great plan.
You should order some seeds online, start a journal and get something going quick!

Well, I don't think his parent go in his basement a lot, so that's not really a problem. I haven't seen the area in a long time so maybe when I get the seeds I'll check it out.

What kind of light should I use? Would a regular 50W light bulb work? Can we use those energy efficient bulbs?

I'm definitaly starting a "log" so other can monitor w/ us and give us help.

I guarantee they'll start going down there a lot more often when they begin to wonder where the hell that skunky smell is coming from. This will not work. Think of something else.

We may try doing it in his shed at the back of his yard. And I'm only 16, I can't buy an apartment.
