I'm makin a small grow room in the ground. its about 2'wide, '3ft long, and 4' tall. Is this a good size for 2 plants or should I dig more?

lol digging a hole....

what are u putting in the hole? just cables running straight down into the ground? what about when it rains? all the water will get soaked up from the ground and drip into ur stuff.

Yea man, its harder than you think and pricey as well. How will you get power to it? Were will you put all the extra dirt, how will you enclose it ext... Im already 1000$ deep into my setup and not even close to being done. 2 600 watt ballast, 2 bulbs, nutes, aero ponic water pump, a/c unit, co2 regulator and tank all ran about 600 and I still have a whole bunch of bs needed. Its not as easy as just diging a whole and planting pot... But if it was me, i would make for advantage of it. a 4x4x4 with 2 2x2 trays doing sog dwc with hps or something in that source. But come on, use your head.. Why would you put 3-5 plants when your going to run out of space with height issues. If your going to do it, you need to do smaller sog plants, or scrog it...

dont bash um... it doest cost that much money if you already have some supplies layin around...... cinder blocks. concrete, some hydraulic cement for the cracks keep the water out.. plastic sheeting on the outside with PVC and gravel on the outside of the walls to flow the water around the walls instead of at them...... but for power ya gotta let us know if its near your house... like if the doorway your gonna rip a hole in your foundation and just put the room next to your houses foundation and use it as an entrance or are ya puttin out in the middle of nowhere with no power jakcs near.. kus fuck a generator.. way too much trouble, and money....Pe@ce.

Im not bashing, im being realistic. When its all said and done let me no how much it cost... concrete, center blocks, pvc+ the lights, nutes, growing medium, seeds ext.. Its adds up. But to his her own, to do a good stealth build, its not easy. Aalso, what about ventilation? How will you get fresh air in and hot air out with out letting water/debree in? There many issues to combat for this but what will you do to solve it...
