This was originally posted in design and set-up, but I thought I should move it here. Original thread is here https://www.rollitup.org/grow-room-design-setup/208517-first-grow-cfl-grow-box.html

What's goin on fellas? :blsmoke:

I'm new to growing so I thought I'd start out with a small DIY grow box. I originally went into this with the intention that it would be for vegetative only, we'll see what you guy's think.

The seeds were bagseed. If everything goes well I'll order some feminized seeds.

Like I said it's my first time growing but I've done some research and with you guys, hopefully I can get some nice bud.

Update:

I re-arranged the 2-26w bulbs to rest above the 105w to the right....I felt like they weren't doing any good so far away from the plants.

Maybe the prong rail will come in handy later. Gonna keep an eye on the heat for now.

Just noticed that the first picture looks like cock and balls. Hopefully this will promote females! heh.
