bongsmiliebongsmilieSo for many of my own reasons
I decided too take some time to
Learn too grow indoor small scale.
I'm soon gonna be taking a step
Into a bigger scale, for the time being
I can only use a small 5×6 double door
Vanity closet, I'm looking too make it a small investment rather then a large expense, I have germinated 2 regular indica seeds, and a single OG kush seed, I'm using substrate for soil right now and am looking for good input on ways I could advance this wonderful section of mine - Kimbo

My lights are 120v 60w LEDS and work beautifully although I may need one more for now what are some cheap "ghetto" tricks round the end for turning my plants will my lights work or will it waste my time? Should I be using nutrition now or wait? I'm looking for short and brute sized plants that will yield a nice amount? Any suggestions

Are you sure those are LED's? they look strangely like CFL's to me :o
Without more than 450W of light youll struggle to pull any further than 0.5g/Watt.
Youll need a few computer fans and an intake fan to push air in and out of the closest as it will need frequent CO2.

Those do look more like CFLs than LEDs. If that's the case those lights need to be within 4 inches of those babies unless you want a plant that looks like a spaghettini noodle and a pair of leaves.

Is that Mylar you're using for reflection? As stated above, if those are CFLs, put them closer and add more as they grow. They'll love you for it. Good luck.

You are using iguana/ Anole/ Bearded Dragon substrate for a growing medium? I don't have words. Please don't. That stuff is designed to be safe for your reptiles, not grow weed. I would personally suggest going to a home depot and picking up a couple 300-400 watt equivalent CFLs (75 actual watts, ish) over those bulbs you've got man.

Please use soil. There is no real nutrition in the Exoterra substrate. It's mainly coco coir, you would need to PH and use nutrients to have a good grow in it. I couldn't even grow a cactus in it for my scorpions. This was before I grew though.

Don't listen to this.

Get yourself a F&D rock table. After it's set up even an old age citizen can take care of it:)

You're right, don't listen to the guy that used multiple Exoterra substrates for temperate, desert, tropical and wetland terrariums for a decade. What was I thinking suggesting that he use soil instead of amphibian bedding?
