Hi all,
I've decided I would like to try my hand at growing. I've watched videos and done quite a bit of reading, and I'm prepared to pull the trigger on an order of soil, supplies, and seeds.
4 plants at a time (as per Canadian law... now where'd my halo and wings go...)
Any advice/guidance is definitely welcome! I'm not a rich man so I need to keep "budget friendly" in mind.
My thoughts/shopping list so far:
I have a heated/finished basement and would like to do a closet grow. The closet has doors on it and can be very dark. I'm torn between buying a grow-tent (potentially a 3'x3'x6' vivosun) or just attempting to use the closet.
For lighting, I was thinking (on amazon canada):
OPULENT SYSTEMS 3 Gallons Grow Bags Heavy Duty Aeration Fabric Growing Bag Thickened Nonwoven Fabric Containers for Potato/Plant Pots with Handles (Black)
For nutrients:
General Hydroponics GLCMBX0009 Calimagic & Flora GRO, Micro & Bloom Combo, 1 Quart Fertilizer
Others:
-Mechanical light timer
-Oscilating fan for additional air movement
-Intake/Exhaust Fans and ducting (still unclear on this stuff)
-Humidity Gauge
-Soil (unclear on what base soil to get)
-A large tote for mixing soil and nutrients
Again, I would like to avoid buying junk but still want to get into growing. All thoughts, opinions, and suggestions are welcome.
