Hell oI'm new to growing. And to the website.

Hello everyone, I hope you guys can help me out. I'm new to the growing thing and I need some oen to dguide me in the right direction.
Here is what I basically need help on.

  1. Space limitations.I have a walk in closet that is about two and a half feet wide and 10 feet long. its about 7-8 feet tall.
  2. Square or round planting tubs for planting each plant.
  3. The air filtering system has to be small do to the space availability I have.
  4. I 'm worried about the smell and what film or PVC sheets should I use to keep the smell down by a lot.
  5. The lighting system should I use http://www.amazon.com/Watt-Equal-2700K-White-Satco/dp/B0013CZ996/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1307209004&sr=8-3-fkmr0
  6. The nutrients and fertilizers and the amount of soil water per plant.
  7. And last but most importantly what plant or variety of weed yields a decent amount of bud but is good for newbies like me?
  8. Oh and where could I get seeds ? I dont really want to use the ones that come in the bags from weed I smoke because I dont want to waste my time with the male plants. PS I live In eastern US so please help me get a source that ships here.
Thank you for considering my thread and I hope to hear from you guys. Please dont leave rude comments.


Sincerely ,Gallerito25

Thats loads of space, and most people seem to use round pots. Carbon filters are the best for odor issues. I'd recommend a higher wattage bulb, and quite a few of them.

I'm still a newbie though.

2 round should be fine for what your looking for
4 look into carbon filters
5 i would go with 2 4 foot 8 bulb t-5 look at the sun blaze fixtures at greners.com
6 nutrients depends on what you want to spend, I use general organics, soil pro-mix bx, water when your pots get light
7 Attitude seed bank has a really good deal going on this weekend spend $42 and get 10 free seeds like 8 different strains, try a skunk there pretty newbe friendly

And welcome to rollitup

Hi. Here are my answers:

1. You have plenty of room! I grow in a shower stall and get a good yield!
2. I use "smart pots" or grow bags to maximize space - but square would be my choice between the two.
3. Suggest a carbon filter - but it's going to smell.
4. ???? Film or PVC is not going to keep smell out? Maybe I'm misunderstanding. Read the tutorials on odor control.
5. A forty watt equiv warm white is not going to cut it - especially not for veg. You need "daylight" for veg and "warm white" for flower - and ALOT more watts. Read the CFL subtopic under lighting for more info on this.
6. The amount of soil depends on how big you plan to grow your plants. I use 5 gallon pots - but I grow big plants. Also - don't give your plants any ferts until the first cotyldon leaves begin to yellow. It's easy to kill a baby plant. It's also easy to overwater a baby plant - only water when the soil is dry.
7. A newbie should grow a plant that is mold resistant and time tested. Suggest - white widow or an old school indica.
8. I get my seeds from Attitude Seedbank and have never had an issue. Good selection.

PS...the link you gave is not for a "lighting system"...it's for a CFL bulb! Seriously consider investing in a system...check out www.htgsupply.com

Hope this helps

Thanks for the help guys how could I be able to minimize the odor ? I know some one that grows and his stuff stinks. I dont have a clue about the carbon air filter thingy how does it work? PS do you guys think tha pvc film will keep some odor out?????? and prevent light from entering the room when the light is unneeded. Please help me out which plants grow t about 5-6 feet yield a good amount and a more nooob friendly please list the yield per plant grown indoors. . I still have no clue about cheap or decent nutrition at a good price so please help me out with that. and please tell me that attitude is legit? Because I wanted to but their hasberry to smoke and some others to plant and sell in bulk. Oh and please help me with ways to keep nosy neighbors away and police the popo. help me with some more light sources.
I appreciate all help from people please help me out I'm a complete noob. Please help me decide how many plants I can fit in the room I have. I will measure more accurately later and draw a diagram. PS I'm SO fuckinnnng drunk right now
Sincerely, gallerito25 P.S I'm Odheeeeeeeeeeeeeeee drunk so dont expect much from me

Two members just recommended Attitude for seeds....why wouldn't it be legit? Also agree with Vcambull that T5 lighting would work for you (htgsupply.com)...And no....panda film does not help with odor control. Do a search on "carbon filters"...

You need to do some serious research. We can answer your questions....but you need to educate yourself...alot.
 
Sorry last night I Was drinking and stuff so i wrote madd shit. Istill dont get teh carbon filters I will try to learn more about them.
Thank you for everything

Sincerely "The hungover" Gallerito25.
