I see your from the NE US so am I, where abouts? I would reccomend getting a bigger box. Once the plant starts growing 24 inches is tight real tight.

Not to get too personal..but why not just tell yer mom? If yer 23..yer old enough to take the heat if something happens...and if you only have one plant..nothing is gonna happen anyway. Tell her you'll lock your room/closet...etc and forget the attic. yer gonna waste yer time...

ya didn't mention light...VERY important.. whatcha gonna use?

good luck

bt dt

it gets hot as shit up there.. but in a week they are installing a special fan that turns on @100 degrees and sucks all the hot air out.. without this fan.. its probably 110-120 up there right now.. i could put it in my room.. but I'm worried about the smell .. i live in a 2 family house.. so i don't want smells to travel.


Lighting: I'm using the compact florescent i have a bunch of them around the house because its all we use here.. so that worked out

I'm going to take pics of all the equipment in a hour or less and ill post it all up

--So lets talk more about his bedroom theory. I have a few spots in my room i can fit it.. closet and such and a long as do some sort of carbon filter.. the smell shouldn't be too bad.. and any time i open it i can Ozium the apartment.. but my room is always like 65 degrees isn't that just as bad as the extreme heat in my attic?


Thanks for the help so far guys.. look forward to more as i build and grow! This site is very knowledgeable

really .. is there a way to flower it early so its just a small plant... or is 24 inches even too small for a smaller plant.. i mean i don't want a tree growing in the corner of my room .. lol just a hefty personal stash lol i guess i might have to get something a little bigger.. just don't want to raise submission.

I've got the closet door open all day long while the lights are on and I can't smell a thing in here... the little fan in the closet helps to circulate the odor and disperse it. If I close the door and have the fan off overnight, it gets kinda stank in there, but not outside of the closet.

Maybe you should go ahead and just wait until you really have a problem before worrying about this.

ok sounds good thanks for the advise..


On to the other questions.. is like 65 too cold.. if it is i guess i can keep it a lil warmer in my room .. I'd just have to know soon.. so i can get mentally prepared for not freezing every night under my blankets.. i love that...

But sorry for Ranting.. i have my own A/C in my room so it should be fine...

does anyone know or have experience with envirolites? i am starting a lowryder cross grow, lowsnow. as they are small and autoflowering i will probably use one 200w envirolite to grow four of these babys at a time.

think this setup will be ok in a small closet? maybe 2ft by 2ft and 5ft tall.

cheers!
Dan
