So Serious about this

Im not in this for business just for on shit to have but i have a nice size closet in the house but i been looking at some video and how they have shit set up looks like the dark room is popular but i dont need that i just need something i can use for a reflector thats the first question

1. what can i use as a reflection that i can put on the walls

2.now i have to big shelves and i was wonder could i just buy these hps bulbs and put them in a lamp or i can hang chains and attach them to the lamps for how ever long i need them to be. and i was reading about uvb lights are they good

3.do i need alot of light WHEN I FIRST START GROWING PLANTS. and how many seeds do i put in the soil pot thing

thats what i know of now if i need anything else can u add that in

and starting the process could i use a
Aquarium

can put and better bulb in there

1. mylar or white paint for reflection on the walls
2.hps bulbs require their own ballast and can't be screwed into normal sockets
3. when you start you do need sufficient light but in veg spectrum, metal halide or veg spec cfls work best

ok so until i get enough money for that cuz i dont see them cheat could i use flood lights or cfls and what can of heat heat levels will i need

you can use cfls and get a decent veg cycle out of them... though you will have much better results from a veg specific (blue spectrum) cfl. i've gone to home depot and purchased full spectrum cfl's and has some success with them in normal light fixtures.

for seedling and clones especially you don't need much light. you can actually kill clones if you put too much light on them. so until you get a little closer to the flowering stage you won't need to spend too much money. but having said that... if you're going to spend significant money on any section of your grow you want to spend it on the the flowering light setup. you want to go with an HPS... meaning ballast, reflective hood, fan, duct work, carbon scrub/filter, etc. It's not cheap but if you want to get smokable buds then it's a necessary evil.

i spent about $1000 bucks on my intial setup but that money can be made back in one or two harvests...

oh, and if you don't want to buy mylar or paint the walls you can also use the reflective insulation sold at Lowe's.

It's what I put on the inside of my grow rooms and it works pretty well, and is relatively cheap.

okay i was going to buy seeds but i new at this so im take this regular weed i fucking buy off the street and grow that first what kind of minerals do i need to get

I use Botanicare Pure Blend Pro. For veg there are three components... for flowering I use 5. Each component (in the size container I buy) costs $20. So I look at $100 when I have to fully re-up. But that amount of fertilizer will last for very long time... at least 3 harvests depending on number of plants... so it isn't hard to regain the cost.

You should be able to get all the supplies at your local hydro store... if you have one.

you have to choose if you are gowing to go organic or chemical. I love organic the smoke does taste better in the end...

which one cheap lol
