ThumbSnap.com - Free Image Hosting for Weblogs, Forums, Emails, and More - CFL :1,600Lumens; 4~7500k, later I'll add a 2,600: 7,500K, CFL on a 'Y'. You can also see the 2 different seeds (some Cali big bud, which I hope to successfully grow indoors, and the dreaded Durban Poison. woohoo.

ThumbSnap.com - Free Image Hosting for Weblogs, Forums, Emails, and More - what 'the grow' looks like. lmao

ThumbSnap.com - Free Image Hosting for Weblogs, Forums, Emails, and More - the size is 3 cubic feet.

So, what I did was
1.disassemble the cardboard box.
2.Using glue stick put some 108 bright white paper all over the interior. (I got the paper at the local printer's paper store. They have the really white stuff).
3.Cut a hole in the top to feed the extension cord thru.
4.stuck a thermometer / humidity gauge inside.
5.Got the paper towels pretty much saturated.
6.marked the paper towels so I know who is whom.

Comments? Complaints, protests, demonstrations?

I plan on ''upgrading" to the cardboard box which they use for hanging clothes. I see CFL's lining the sides :)

Last time ('79) I grew it in a old toilet. Put the nute's into the reserve, placed the toilet on top of a bed of bricks tall enough so that I could put a tupperware container under the outlet. In the bottom of the bowl I had placed a bunch of lava rocks.

When I flushed the toilet, the plant got it's nutes and the excess flowed into the tupperware container. I could slide the container out from under the toilet, pour it back into the reserve tank and be ready to go again.
