Not meant for commercial growers but a great way to spend the winter growing some weed. Once summer comes just grow out side on Gods green earth some where away from onlookers and you will haul in a couple pounds from ten seeds.
Here is what you need to grow dank weed even on your FIRST try!
1. Rag (Yes a rag. the MOST important tool you will need to ensure you don't over water)
2. 5 gallon bucket. ( just ask a friend who uses the 5 gallon detergent buckets or go to a recycling place they will have 5 gallon buckets too)
BUDGET SO FAR: FREE

Find a FISH TANK DOUBLE LIGHT
Most 20 gallon fish tanks have two light sockets.
Garage sales almost ALWAYS have fish tanks to sell... it's like every person in America has to experience aquatic life at some point in his existence.
Make a light reflector from pieces of cardboard you dug out of a dumpster some where. cardboard should be about two feet by one foot.
Now use card board and glue the Aluminum Foil to the cardboard pieces and tape every thing at the edges so the aluminum isn't hanging any where.
Now you have reflectors to reflect light that is escaping back to the plants. See picture.
OK take some duck tape and tape it to the fish tank light sides so it drapes over the edge of the fish light on both sides. See pic.
OK now punch a few holes and you can hang er up.
Fill the bucket up with FISH water if you can or regular water and get the rag.
Get the rag wet and squeeze it onto the plants.
They LOVE this!!! and they will grow FAST. Have some other plants in there too so you can get the watering out of your system. The more plants you have to water the less likely you are to over water just two or three. This is the best way I have found to NOT over water plants. Just use the rag and squeeze water on to the plants.
Try this before you knock it or make fun of it. It really does work for a small harvest like mine and it is also very relaxing to just sit with your plants and baby them.
DO not start to introduce NUTRIENTS until you start to see some serious growth. For the first few weeks just use the fish water and drizzle it over the plants with the rag. Once they get bigger mix the Nutr. and you will see things really take off.
