First grow room setup

Lol, glad to hear I'm not the only one that sings situational appropriate songs to my plants. "Little clip clip here little clip clip their here a clip their clip everywhere a clip clip".
 
The closet lacks ventilation and a power supply. I'd go downstairs for those two reasons alone, but having more space is a bonus. You're going to accumulate a ton of stuff for mixing, measuring, moving and testing the gallons of nutrients and soil you're going to use to pamper your plants.

All the crap I have, would barely fit in your closet.

And that's just the stuff that I'm using...there's a couple of boxes of old lights, air pumps, little fans, power supplies, panda film, hydroton, yoyos...ridiculous.

BUT! I don't have a wet/dry vac !!! Note to self...MUST ADD wet/dry vac to giant collection of indispensable grow gear....and possibly a couple of those syringes with the really long tips, haha.

Cheers
 
They speak the truth.... I have 6 - 5 gallon hydroponic buckets I made that cannot stack inside each other because of the other hardware attached... I just leave them outside now... stacking them makes it 7.5’ tall. Agh!
 
BOO ! 🧟

Alltatup is right. It’s just part of the path to growing. Learning by mistake and the brain that powers those thoughts..” hmmm, I need this....hmmm, that would work great, hmmm,that would make it easier....etc etc. ‘

.ALL OF THAT however, goes away when you go a few weeks into flower and see the amazing transformation into the beautiful buds and aromas however potent

LMAO, besides responding to alltatup, this is the first post I've read this am. Ya, I get it. Just think back when you had your first grow, that's me, so I will have plenty of time to create messes lol. I'll be doing it in the basement, you've all sold me on that. Going to try super soil for my fist grow, and would like to get that down. I know hydro is faster but I am confident enough to say that it's out of my league right now. Good lord that's a lot of chemicals, sad it takes all that but I'm there nube here so thanks for all the advice and for letting me know those crazy stories about Alltatup.
 
Just playing with ya Alltatup, no one said anything besides your kind and helpful and that was me. Thanks again.
 
I thought hydro was out of my league too. Then I tried it and it turns out that I find it much more simple and user friendly. I only add nutes once a week and my daily grow room chores include a ph test and adding ice bottles to my res. Other than that it's just topping off the res maybe twice a week. I was able to build a complete rdwc setup for around 150 bucks. That includes 5 pails, net pots, air pump, water pump, hydroton, all the fittings and hose I needed. It was simple to build. However there is nothing wrong with growing in soil. Veg just takes a bit longer. Hope everything works out for you dude!
 
Supersoil is a good choice.
I was just remembering my first grow the other day. I had been reading this book
20190324_162239.jpg

over and over for weeks, saved up a little money to buy shoplights, plant bulbs, plastic pots, bone meal, blood meal, kelp, bat guano, dirt in a bag, perlite and a small fan for my 2 × 6 foot closet, Never pHed my water, flooded my saucers with standing water, did feed them ever. I don't even know how I got to harvest but I did, four months later, i had the best Damn quarter oz ever, lol . Cannabis growing has come a long way especially with the information on the Internet and the quality of your return will be worth your initial investment, you will be soooooooo thankful you have the extra room and the means to acquire this and that trinket. Point is you can get it done with the minimum but why settle if you've got the room.
My nemesis in hauling and storing water, 5-7 gallon jugs in a 7×8 grow room not to mention everything else, oh and room for plants, If you only knew my small room problem.
I look forward to you grow Dude
 
Thanks Furley, money is really tight tight now but I'm serious about doing this, I love the plant because it's so darn interesting, let alone what it does for the body and mind. The tent will be 150.00, lighting 130.00, Kind Soil and Fox Farm Soil 75.00, Root Trapper pots and Root Riot starters 50.00, need to find some good inline fans to move old air out and new air in, plus a small fan for inside to help strengthen stems and just a nice breeze as we all like. So roughly I'm at 500.00 to get started right. Now I could always do it the other way and hopefully have a badass quarter like you ended up with as well.. Lol....I buy no means have money, but I've always believed that when buying tools for any trade, buy good tools and always take care of your tools and they will take care of you when needed.
 
Farmall, I know what you're saying and I get a bit excited like a kid going to the fair. Lol...I have good seeds coming so I have hopes that as long as I do my end hopefully she will do her part. I'm learning about topping Right now and how to pinch off the pistol on the sixth node. Also learning how bending can help grow new branches from the damaged knuckle. Ms Cannabis is designed to keep reaching for three sky, so I need to slow that a bit so she can spread out and grow more friends/buddies. When I get going I'm going to need some advice on how to help bush her out. Like your name BTW Farmall, good equipment!
 
Sirsmksalot, man that's awesome, I try to be creative but putting a hydro together for 150.00 that's down right awesome. I really appreciate your kind words as well, can't wait till I have pictures for you kind people, men and Woman... Sista
 
Dude I'm the first to admit it when I get silly. But so do lots of other folks on this forum. Heck, dude, you fit right in here!!!!!!
