Im planning on doing my first ever grow with only one plant just to get to know cannabis growing better.

Im interested in growing an auto, mainly beacause of the short grow period. BUT ive read alot of bad reviews on them as far as potency goes compared to reg strains.

should i go with reg. or auto
in a 2x2x4 cab

with no carbon filter and using only cfls do i pretty much go with the same number cfm fan as there is of cubic feet in a cab??????? for example say i have a 54 cubic feet in a cab whould using two(intake/exhaust) 80 cfm fans be good?

iv done autos and never had any problems with potency. it 1 hit quit just as my reg... plants. autos are very easy to grow you dont half to mess with the lights, and time is cut in half. but if your looking to learn about growing plants you need to read read read and do. the more you grow the better you get. i have autos and reg plants going just check out my link on bottom.

it should work. it might be a lil scimpy but if you do it right, like one fan on one and and at the bottom sucking air in and the other closer to the top and blowing out it would clean ur box out around 1 n a half times a minute. u might want more of a breeze rolling thru there tho. how many cfls are you running, do u have anything lining the box or anything like tht? another thing u gotta consider is heat. i may be a 1st time grower but ive put alot of time into research, what kind of cfls do u have, wattage, and color type, like warm white, or bright white. and how many plants do you plan to grow, more plants mean tht ur gunna want more air goin in and out. let me know if any of this helps
good luck-pc

Just playing,

I can actually give you an answer on auto's i'm doing my first auto grow just out of curiousity to see how it goes as if i go on holiday i will run one when i get back for example.

I done my research and found the biggest yeilder and strongest one out there at the moment is the,

AK47 X LOWRIDER 2

It's looking ok i've got 5 on the go under a 600w not bad. Will never be anywhere near growing normal seeds vegged etc.

But for quickness and low maintenance it serves a demand and certainly there is a market for it..''

:bigjoint:
