2nd grow, 2/3 ladies - home made set up- input welcome

Hello, if you have seen any of my other posts you will see i have been mentioning putting together something over the next month or two to grow 2 or 3 plants maybe 2 strains.
 
what im after, first of all on some input on lighting
 
Flourecent http://www.homehydro.co.uk/lighting/lamps-bulbs-leds/54w-6500k-grow-t5-tube.html
CFL Kit - http://www.homehydro.co.uk/125w-cfl-maxii-reflector-kit-cool-lamp.html
 
basically anything with fairly low leccy. i have already got reflectors and extractor/exhaust fans.
 
dont know what im going to do it in yet, probably a double wardrobe or old chest of draws, i used to do allot of carpentry so might just make one.
 
another thing i would love some input on..... Strain, i will be growing from seed, im after something with a deep (like berry/diesel) obv a nice high thc content.
 
if im not after a very tall plant am i best going for auto's? 
 
 
Any input welcome.... i will be deciding on lighting by end of the moth and that will determin the size of the area/growbox i get.
 
 

 

That's my idea, i don't want it any bigger than about 3ft reallysize isnt really a problem for the grow box, depends on lighting as if i use floro i will need it longer.
 
found these seeds for Blue dream autos they sound so dank. always wanted to try it http://www.leafly.com/hybrid/blue-dream

 

Need to decide on bulbs, lighting, i have a limit of like 60 quid, but that's tops , if i can get some ok lighting for less with more output..... Thats what in after. Need some advise reallyI have heard cfls will only get you a finished product of fluffy weed not tight nugs ( we all like nice tight nugs ) Sent from my spaceship using Grasscity Forum

I just don't think you can get the needed coverage and penetration with FL or CFL that you can with HID.Got ventilation? Considered a small ScrOG? Is that possible with autos?Sub'd up to follow your progress. Good luck with it.[/quote]I have got like 5 6"inline fans lying around so i can sort out ventilation, hole in the bottom for intake with a intake fan(might not bother) And a hole at top on otherside with extractor in. Should keep temps and air flow good, its purely a lil persi grow, dont wanna spend more than like 50 quid on light though, any ideas? Sent from my spaceship using Grasscity Forum

Im going to do 2 girls first time round, im going to use cfl bulbs. Trying to decide what w to get though, will be using probably a double wardrobe. What is a good lumen output to have? Can you have too much? Burn plants? Sent from my spaceship using Grasscity Forum

 

So I'm going to try and get my hands on a 250 - 300w dual spectrum light of some sort.Going for 2 plants. Thats decided. Just need to pick a strain now. And read up on, diff bulbs, ballast and then find an appropriate box/container/cupboard Sent from my spaceship using Grasscity Forum
