  1. well my grow box is literally a box...the height is roughly 22'' by 14'', 6'' deep so its practically a pc grow box. the interior off it is all tinfoil, 1 cfl light in the box...im only goin 2 grow 1 plant, and do i really need fans? because i wont care about smell
     
  2. You should really check out the guides in the forum. You're gonna need at least 100 Actual CFL watts not the equivalent wattage. so 4 23W bulbs probably. And you need two spectrums, 6700k-ish for veg and 2700k-ish for flower... and yeah you need fans to circulate air for the plant to breathe.
     
  3. i knew why i need the fans. but the light bulbs i need help wit cus i have no idea wat ur talkn bout. but i guess ima just surf these forums
     

  4. You also need wind on your plants to strengthen the stem.

    If you need help with lights click on this link: Kamels CFL guide to lighting
     
  5. Tin foil = heat reflection more than light reflection (after all thats what it was made for)

    So if your planning on using tin foil and that small of a box, plus the amount of lights required just for 1 plant alone.... You will need a way to circulate air in there to help keep the heat down. Plus air circulation will help with bringing in more Co2 etc...

    Now if you are using a box, Id suggest going with white paint. It will reflect light better than the tinfoil and wont reflect heat.
     
  6. thanx for the help, that guide was helpful.
     
  7. is there lights that don't send out heat?
