PAGE FIVE FOR LATEST BUD PICS

If you live in a non medical state or just need overall stealth, and you are short of funds, or just dont have room to do flood trays and 1000s, CHECK THIS SHIT OUT!!!

Basically i dont have the same Sqft i had at my old place, and we gotta be sorta stealthy about this grow. So me and my roomate decided to buy 4 IKEA closets and fit them into our standard bedroom closets. We ran an IKEA closet at our old spot, and yeiled a QP of really good GDP off only 150 watts! So, if you do the math, off our 4 closets we should yeild a full P, half P each is not that bad for such a small investment. Each plant is vegged approx 2-3 weeks then flowered. Each plant yeilds about a quarter ounce so if you have 16 plants you will get a QP. I currently have 20 stuffed in there but 2 will become mothers. Strains are Asian Kush and Purple Bubblegum.

Total Costs
IKEA Hosle Closet (71in tall, 32in wide, 22in deep) -80 each (there are other models and designs for more $, or you can find one cheap on craigslist)

Various 150watt HPS lights - $70 shipped off ebay

Organic Soil (EB STONE) - $10

Nutes - $20
Pots- $20
mylar - $20
Small mount fan - $10 each


Per closet average setup costs are around $200 bucks. Another 100 on some seeds or clones and about 50 a month electricity. After you establish mothers costs will come down much more..

If you live somewhere and you are tired of paying $500 a zip you have no excuse anymore because you can pull this closet grow off anywhere. Perfect for apartments even dorm rooms if you have the balls.
Once the closet is all closed up it looks like this..

we can probably stuff 3 closets into there but i need room for my gun safe and clothes, i can probably fit another couple in my room, maybe a random one in the garage somewhere. since i cant have a dedicated grow room this works perfect for me..
Hopefully some of yall out there give it a try!

the closet actually has no light leaks, its built pretty good, i wrapped mylar around everything as an extra layer of protection. the only issue is probably air circulation but it gets plenty with the fan and if you leave the door cracked open, theres also a flap in the mylar in the back which allows some air in.

what size pots are you using? I seemed to have missed that IKEA model but it looks like a winner.

right now they are in small pots but they will soon be transplanted to half gallons....i know not the biggest root space but it works for this grow...

Snappy-doodle grow program you got goin' there Yes4. Looks stealthy. Bugs a problem with that design? Small space grows are the "meat of the market" and I will be staying tuned to see how it turns out...

^yup i couldnt believe it myself, it would have been more but we had a really low yeiling white widow in there last time, the grand daddy we grew was fuckin awesome...a QP off 150 watts means your getting a P off every 600! the best way to maximize GPW!! Plus you dont even need a dedicated grow room, you can sprout these things up anywhere, in kitchen, garage, living room, who cares!!

yea bugs are a small problem got a minor fungas gnat invasion, dumped in some nemotodes and using lots of neem oil

so far they are healthy as fuck, the kush is growing super fast. might have to start flowering soon....
