so whats your plan with the mylar in the buckets.
details man details. lol
whats your soil, nutes, lighting,venting,room.
fill us in with what you`ve learned so far.
haha sorry man, I was kinda pressed for time when I started the thread. I planned to fill everyone in on Sunday.
I put the mylar in the buckets because I thought I could use the 3 inches of bucket space to give 360 degree reflection.
For soil I started in the MG organic shit but it SUCKED! So I transplanted into an all organic mix.
I looked around the web for different recipes and I came up with this one-
1 bag of regular soil- 40 lbs
1 bag of top soil - 10 lbs
1 bag of worm castings-10 lbs
1 part of pearlite
1 part vermiculite
1 tbl spoon per gallon of bat guano
1 tbl spoon per gallon of blood meal
and 1 tbl spoon per gallon of bone meal
For lighting I'm using two 4' fluorescent lights with 2 CFLs on reflectors supplementing. I'm not sure on the watts right now, but I'll check and get back to you guys.
Well, the room has changed. I started the grow in my attic and things were going great until..... one day I was really baked and went up the attic ladder to check on my ladies. I climbed over the first rafters with no problem, being careful not to trip. My luck ran out, and I tripped over my extension cord. I fell hands first on to the dry-wall of my kitchen ceiling, then head first on my kitchen floor.
Don't worry, the plants were fine!

So from then on, I thought my closet would work fine. The closet is about 10' X 6' with 8' ceilings
