I need help on the other supplies im only going ot be growing 1 plant to keep it on the downlow. what lights should i start out with i know CFL are good but i know nothing of wattage and where i can buy decent priced cfl's iwth reflectors, or what to screw them into cause i dont have a lightning fixture maybe someone can help me out there. and someone help me turn a comp fan into a plug in wall adabter for the fan to turn on for it would be great. Opinions and recommendations on different nutrients and foods for the plant is great, i already know how im doing the soil. seriously total noob needs ur help here. i need stores to buy this shit. like eventauly metal halide and hps lights too iunno im just totally lost and noobed

Welcome to the forum. Uhh... a cube 17.5 " won't be big enough. By the time you put the plant in a pot with a light above it, you will be out of space. VV

well i can get a taller box, with thinner width and length but taller , can u give me the minimum dimensions of a box or the height im using 1 CFL cause only 1 plant with a reflector. and i might get MH or HPS lights if i find alamp to use them, iunno how to use the lights with sockets an dlamps though cuas elal i have are lampslike desk lamps.
