Advice for my first grow.

[KB420]

Hey ther guys, I have a few questions for yea. First, how many watts should i have per plant? ive had people say 55, and others say 100. Id like to get this cleared up because ive got 6 seeds germanated and planted under a Plant Light 65 Watt Im wonderin if thats enough, i got 2 of them so if its not i can just hook it up. Also, how long does it take for the seeds to sprout out of the ground? The first 3 were planted March, 6th. My friend planted some the same day and hes got 2 sproutin already. Here are some pics of my box, i no shes ghetto but im not wantin to spend alot of money if possible. Oh and also, she sits at around 75 Degrees F.

wow ... agreeed budfather......... KB420 is either realllllly stoned or just stupid......

use anything but a cardbord box man ...... find some wood and make a box or somthing .... like come on for real... i cant belive you posted that.. lol made my day ..... heheheh

First off, how is that a fire hazard, it dont even get hot enough in ther to start a fire. And could you please just answer my questions. Also im startin to see a sprout now which makes me alot happier.

Edit: Oh and im not stupid, this is my first time growing anywhere or in anything. Before i just smoked it, id appreciate it if you dident call me stupid and just tell me what i did wrong. And the reason i dident make it out of wood before is because it needs to be lite enough to move around, the area where this box is, is in a small corner in my basement with benches around it, its not easy movin heavy things around down ther.

Ok, you guys win. You got me thinkin about how bad that would be if it was to light up in flames. Im gunna build a new box out of wood today same size as that one. Also would painting the inside white do the same as those posters?

 

[Lucid]

lol ... i thought thoes were posters.... or wrapping paper...

buy some flat white paint ... to paint the inside of the box .... buy some hindges and make a door..... make it have a bottom ... if your gonna be moving the box around buy some handles and screw them in to make it easy to move......

How did my thread end up in this section, coulda sworn it was in the Growers section. Would be much appreciated if a Mod could move my thread to the growing section. Ill post more pics of the wooden box im makin today.

KB420,
DO a search on this site for Rubbermaid grows. It's inexpensive & prolly alot less time consuming that building a wood box. Also u can find the complete construction design on here too. There are plenty of cats on here working with Rubbermaids so ur set up would be just like the next guys set up which would mean that help would only be a post away.

Remember, the most important thing, ALWAYS, is safety.

Just my 2 pennies.

Well ive already built the box, and coated the inside with White paint. I am suprised at how bright it is in ther i have an outside pic of it, will post more updates tomorrow.
