Hey all! I've been a smoker for a while, but I'm taking a break Due to exams etc. So to keep me from going braindead, I'm planning on growing! Woo! I was hoping you guys could maybe give me some tips and some help. This is the plan: Basically I want a small 1 plant grow (Just to start with), I'm going to grow it in my cellar, I'm going to grow it in a roundish bin (May sound weird but plants will fit perfectly). I'm going to cut into the side of it and attach my old computer fan for ventilation, what I need help with is lighting. Lighting seems to be one of the most important things from what I hear. I want a light that doesn't produce much heat at all (Due to infra-red helicopters, I know I'm paranoid ) I believe I should be wanting either something like LED's of CFLs. But I honestly have no idea, also the colour of the lighting (like warm white etc), I was hoping I could have one light for the whole process (Meaning vegetative and flowering etc), if this is possible that is. If someone could help me with information it would be a great help. Also if I missed any main points off in my grow, please just post!

If you want a good light that isn't hot and gives off little to no heat cfl and LEDs are the way to go. As far as your roundish Ben you should have 2 fans one at the top for exhaust snd one at the bottom for intake.if you have no air coming in and it's just outtake your roots wont get any oxygen and that's not good.and as far as choppers spotting you if you was to grow with hps: you shouldn't be to worried unless you have a Grow operation. Feds don't want to make bust for 2 to 5 plants they want the 50 to 30 plants bust lol etc etc don't get me wrong it is illegal an they will take ya babies but I know ppl who grew for years, about 1 to 5 plants and never had a problem just dont grow to sell dont have alot of traffic in and out of your house/apt and lighting is most important but so is keepin the smell down and never telllll aaannyyyooonneee unless you feel its safe.but what lighting you want to use is on you brother to each is own.
