Default Best book for small home grows?
I was looking to get a book on growing that had more info useful to somebody doing a wardrobe or closet grow.

Specifically, I would like to know about LST, hydro setups, soil and nutrients, proper containers, lighting, exhaust etc. for "micro" grows.

Any suggestions?

thanks Floridasucks,

do you own this book, and does it have information on the above topics?

Also, is this a "regular" book that I could find at a bookstore?

Why buy a book when you've got this website? Besides most of the books you would need, are already available online for free on torrents.

floridasucks could have gone on to add that it has a helpful section on "mini grows" such as small sheds, micro-greenhouses & hoops, but I wouldn't say it has what you're looking for. I can't think of any piece of literature that addresses micro-grows directly. You're better scanning the Internet, really. There are some impressive micro-grows on here, and some people are pretty eager to help.

yes i do own that book and gamberro your right this probly isnt the best book for a micro grow. but it does have alot of very useful information. also like someone else said this website probly does have more info you just have to search for it. check out my sig its a small grow in a cardboard box not exactly micro but it may help.

wow, that's perfect. I'll get the book to have as a general reference. Hopefully after doing some reading my questions won't be so stupid.

For the actual grow, I'll try to study and replicate the the grow setups that are most suitable for my space. thanks for the link and the tips.

IMO a DWC (Deep Water Culture) AKA "BubblePonics" setup is stupid simple to setup and maintain and can easily fit in a small space. Foot tall plants with 1/2 oz of bud is possible in 8"X8" space. Or you can go big also, very flexible system, very cheap and easy to make yourself with the only tool you really need is a good sharp knife.

Probably your biggest purchase is going to be the light, do not skimp on that part as it is the biggest contributor to yields. CFL and Fluoros do work, but HID lighting ( HPS and MH) are the kings of yield.
