Greetings Fellow Growers..
This will be My First attempt at growing indoors...
Keeping My Budget under 50.00, with a thesis in mind, that "Dialing-in" will be My "first grow",Adjusting Lighting and such, ferts, size of containers etc., then a attempt at growing 2 oz's to a QP in a small space..
I have to give full Discloser here...
I'm a old dis-abled guy, with health that isn't to good, thus; I'm a Medicinal User.
I'm also really poor.. (I'm on SSA, and after bills can't afford Squat)..
I also have as part of My Full Discloser, I made several appeals for beans in the past few months..
Thankfully, 2 people donated to My cause at trying to grow My own during winter, inside my Abode, here in the "Ghetto"...One other, I've known for awhile and We traded out some PC parts that He needed and Made a great trade with Me..
They all Three sent Me Lowryder seeds to get Me started..
Credits on the Beans go to..

This will be a Long winded post, so please bear with me..
I had a "Ghetto Plant" growing on My back deck for Quite some time, budding nicely, until some punk-azz relative(s), decided to rip Me off..
Stripping My poor Girl that was doing great...
(I just got word that fucker is now in jail for CC theft)...
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
That was Her... A couple Weeks after that Pic was taken, She was "fattening up", getting crystally, and smelling really good.. Surprise; one Morning I go out to water Her and find Her "de-nuded"....
Now, Back to the Topic at hand...
The "Cab" has INSIDE dimensions of 12" X 12" (1' X 1')...
It is 36" tall, (3foot)....
So we have
12"X12"X36"
12 inches are chopped off with a shelf so the TOTAL grow area is..
12"X12"X24"...
2 Cubic feet right? (correct my math if I'm wrong..)
So We are going to attemp 2 oz's or better with 2 cubic feet...
Pic of the Cab, Mind you, this is a WORK in Progress so light leaks are not a problem..
I've also got Computer fans and Power Cords for them ready to Rig up.
Here's a Pic..
At this point I'm going with CFL's..
I've got the 23 watt ones ATM, as I'm unable to find the 42's, wait, except for Office Depot, and they want 15.00 for one..
Everything, I've got invested thus far is 6.00, in CFL lighting..
Cords/Sockets/Potting Soil, Yes; the CAB also were free..
Opening up the "CAB" we get a look at whats currently inside...
These are Mexci Brick seeds that were thrown out into the garden last month... I took a few, to try to get a "feel" at what CFL lighting can do, plus checking temps, and other enviromental factors that are part of My computer room...
These were transplanted 2 days ago///
So if someone could do the quick Math and check what Whatts/Lumins/etc are for 3 23 CFL's and a 2 X 2 cubic foot grow area would be nice, (I never was good @ Math)..
