th seeds is a good brand and the skunk xx is cheap right now plus 25% off with the promo as seaofseeds. skunk is always a winner, NL, stick to the basics, sensi star ect. plenty of good strains that are easy to keep small.

nice lol..do you have them send to your house?
what seeds do you recommend to start off with?
doing scrog and micro as you know.
but im also gonna get a 250w
im looking for the cheapest strain thats a good grow lol
I always order to my house, just don't care 'cause your legally allowed to own seeds! When they ship it's just a plain bubble packet envelope with no branding or anything so no-one will know what it is, brilliant stealth... They even throw in some freebies!

When it comes out of your account from attitude it comes out as TF Corporation or something non weed related like that so I even use my own card... by buying seeds you are doing nothing illegal :)

As for strains, just go onto the site and have a look, search for feminized seeds between £3-£20 or somehting - in the advanced search thingy (somewhere on the site, I don't remember where). Though in a small space I'd recommend a good Indica or indica dominant hybrid, it tells you in all the specs anyway so you'll know. If you want my personal recommendation as per strains, I can tell you that G13's Pineapple Express is a very resilient plant, stays short and works well with scrog, Nirvana's AK-48 is also very strong and finishes flowering very quickly (in ideal situations in 48 days hence the name) And Bomb Seed's Berry Bomb is brilliant, very strong plant, temperature resistant and tastes really good, even prematurely cut!

Thanks guys im seeing alot of strains in the website haven't ordered yet but I will soon.

I have a couple babies flowering in my closet with a 400w
They are hermied now I think iremmeber
Simone saying just pluck out the seeds and leave the hairs and it will still
Give some decent bud

I need some seeds so im not really worried
But how does this technique work?

As for my baby hope she is doing good nice new growth

Dont be embarassed, man. This is a learning experience. Even professional growers run into problems every now and then. Just think of it like this; by posting pics of your plants (healthy or not) the replies you get might help out other people with the same or similar problems. Thats what this awesome community is for, to help and look out for one another.

That being said I've been reading this thread all day like a soap opera xD. I got 4 bagseeds germinating right now to try and make my first scrog, so your journey has been very informative. Match and poly have given some awesome tips that I have noted down. Hopefully everything goes well with your baby and keep us posted!

Thanks you guys it feels good to talk to someone about this stuff.
I can't tell anybody because im immediately assumed like a bad person
On drugs or as an addict worried about a drug plant.
They dont understand that it's mainly for fun and an interesting experience.
Its mainly a hobby with a gift at the end =D ;-)!!!
also it actually helps me with my stress =D of real problem in life.

But the plant is looking way better leafs are getting healthy and everything
Is look good green =D
I'll post picks so you guys can see when I get a chance =D

NUMBER216: yes poly, and match have been lots of help
Actually a great tutor for me if it wasn't for them my plant/baby
Will most certainly be dead.
So get those notes cause I have proof of them working.
Happy growing guys and I will post pics!!!

Alright so one of my buddies gave me his decker cabinet wich is perfect for a perpertual grow im planning on doing.
I am planning on using a 250w as soon as im done with my 400w grow wich is coming along nice :)
once its finish ima sell my 400w because its to much energy and downgrade to a 250w wich is good with energy and low on heat.

My decker cab is 5ft 1/2 tall 1ft deep 2ft width.
Im planning to ust 4ft for flower and the other 1ft couple inches for my vegging.
For vegging im planing to use my micro grow box just put it in thier.
For the flowering ofcourse the 250w and it is going to be absolutely stealth proof i will not start the grow until it is stealth proof.
I have a couple questions before i start building because i am planning to keep this (forever) lol
the cabinet is plastic!

Will pc fans handle ventilation?
How many will i need?
Is the 4ft,l 2ft w 1ft d to much space for the 250w?
Is 2 plants enough?
What size pots should i use?
Is distillled water good to water?
Im planning to get the plants 1ft tall then flower is that ok?

I know its not considered a micro grow but you guys have been alot of help so i want to stick with this thread.
Im also still going to scrog with this cabinet so is the setup ok cant i just through a screen on thier and scrog 2 plants?

Thanks guys this isnt gonna be done for a while but just getting started with notes and brainstorming :) happy growing
here is a picture of how im planning to make the cabinet. If you think i should change somthing feel free to let me know
thanks :)

To answer some questions:

Will pc fans handle ventilation? Most likely not

How many will i need?
A decent 4" inline fan

Is the 4ft,l 2ft w 1ft d to much space for the 250w?
well if your scrogging you would be better served with 2ft in veg and keep a nice sized mother in veg for cloningalso if your looking for stealth you could spit the veg room into 2 and vent into it, (also have holes in there to let heat escape, would act like a baffle box for the big fan and keep the sound down a bit anyway.

Is 2 plants enough?
plenty :)

What size pots should i use?
5-10litres, as big as you can fit really.

Is distillled water good to water?
any water is fine for soil, I've had no problems using anything!

Im planning to get the plants 1ft tall then flower is that ok?
yeah should be fine, but then you'll learn how big/fast they grow so you know exactly when to flower over time.

Most likely you'll need a decent 4" inline fan for cooling even for a 250w :) how are you cooling the 400w grow room? use that method lol!

the more u grow the more you know. just keep at it and you will get better. i am doing a 150 watt grow right now with 3 plants to mother out. theyre are ok but not great. soo when you feel down just look at my grow its right where yours is in a way.

Thanks for all the replies and for still sticking with me!
4weeks that puts me back a month O.O
will see how it turns out then thanks.

Thanks for the organized response matchbox =D

A decent 4" inline fan. Is it noisy at all?
About my space. well first I would like to learn more about
Growing a natural plant no topping fimming basically not touching
The plant. So I will probably be growing about 4plants in 1 gallon pots
Vegg for about 2 weeks under flourecents then vegg another 2weeks
Under a 250wmh bulb then finish off flowering with the hps.
I will report once I find out sex to lets say 3gal. Pots im hoping to
Get at least 2 females if I dont get all females =D if I get 3 well I make
One a mother plant =D and learn how to clone =D.

After that im planning too scrog wouldn't lowering down my light
To 2ft high be the same than rebuilding the cab. To 2ft tall?
But I after I do that grow im going to stick to scrog :)

Remember the story I told you of how I got my fan. I took it off this old humidafier
I had its like 6inches big and really fucking noisy lol. So it's really huge.
But do you think that maybe 2pc fans as intakes
And that big ass fan as an exhaust will do it.?

As for stealth im planning on using this air duct tape long holes looking things.
Thanks guys im finally going to have this set up good :)

Those 4" fans are really not too loud you can easily muffle them, I personally never use fans for intake, only worth doing if you have a properly airtight room. If you have a good extractor it's best just to have a few holes at the bottom opposite corner to the exhaust, that way the extraction brings fresh air in through the bottom, cheaper on the lecrtic too... mildly lol

If you want to grow a plant without any kind of training pruning etc you will most definitely want an Indica lol you really don't want to let a sativa loose unless you have a good 5 feet between the top of the pots and the lights, 'cause they're ridiculous.
