yea dude 2 things that suprised me are... size of lights and size of the seeds the seeds are so fucking small and the lights are so fucking big... i got like 100+ watt cfls and there huge

and ill get pics up as soon as i get ahold of a camera (1-2 days) but i wont have grow setup for like a week.. i still gotta put hinges on and attach the doors to the cabinet... then get things like soil/pots then wire it all up and set everything in place

If Anyone knows a best way to germinate let me know( most popular) i plan on doin wet paper towl thing cuz i dont wanna just throw them in a cup full of water... but do u need like towl wet in plastic bag with no light ? or some extra shit like that ( not asking cuz im lazy ive just seen people do it so many diffrent ways.. just wondering if some of the shit wasnt needed)

I use the wet paper towel method as it seems to be the most popular method. I use a dinner plate with a wet paper towel filled with seeds and then cover it with a bowl. Put it in a warm dark room and then the magic begins. I usually have 9/10 germinate.

Ive used a "Seed Starting Soil Mix" before, and I only got 7/10 to germinate that time.
