Hey all, first time poster here, thanks for all the great info so far. I have been reading through the posts and feel slightly less ignorant. I am looking into learning to grow two dwarf plants. So far the powers that be (not parents, I is all growed up!) have decreed that the setup would have to be small and discreet. So here is what I am thinking: In a large chest, turned on it's side to make it taller: 1 HPS light (What is the minimum wattage needed?) 1-2 dwarf strains (under 18", any recommendations on strain?) Outlet fan up top (of the 120mm computer variety) Unfertilized, good draining soil (cactus soil? Reg with Perlite?) Interior Painted Flat White or Mylar (why is Mylar an advanced technique? Is it expensive?) Carbon Filter (??? Will two small plants leave a small sealed bedroom type area?) Filter recommendations would be grand. Someone will pop by every 3 days to checkup / water them. Price is an issue, trying to stay around $100-$200. A small yield is not a big deal at all, this batch would be for the most infrequent of partakers. So are the online seedbanks safe? Any negative stories? Everyone comfortable just using credit cards, or should I use a more discreet method? Please critique, attack, and suggest as much as possible. I will take all suggestions to heart.
