Hey People, First I'd like to say Ive been reading up on growing for the past month or two, Can't remember. Decided it was my time to try! I have 2 friends who are gonna help, I've Drawn out the plans and What not to the grow box, and have a pretty good idea what kind of things (Lighting, Buckets, Fans Ex.) We'll Be using.

I have an extra room upstairs (attic) I'd like to build a decent size box to where i can get about 4 plants in their Comfortably.

*Dimensions of Box: (LxWxH)

4'2" x 4'5" x 5'6"

There will be a whole in the Right side close to the bottom about a foot up. for a Fan. Also a hole in the left side about 1 foot above the hole on the right side for a exhaust setup for hot air to be taken outside.

*Lighting
-I want to get a 400 Watt HPS white reflector system seen em for $90 from insidesun.com
Q: Is starting at 24/0 or 24/7 (same thing) Good or should i start at 18/6 ??

*Soil
-Plan on just using regular bagged soil

*Ferts
-Want to use Miracle grow once a week if needed.

*Growing
-Vegie state, I want to vegie till around 30" between 50" tall
then start to flower are 12/12 lighting

Well, That's all I have to say at this moment. Any comments y'all might have is greatly appreciated. If you have anything to add/subtract from what ive said please do so!
