Indoor First grow! Some quick questions...

[atpmixx]

Hey there! First time grower here. Ive done TONS of research, but would like a few questions answered by the folks who know best!

1-Ordering Northern Lights Auto & Bubblicious Auto seeds from worldwide-marijuana-seeds.com. Reputable bank? Good strains?

2-Only growing one plant. Yep, just one! Have about a 2 foot by 2 foot wide 4 foot tall space. Plastered it with Mylar, have a fan, all that. I purchased a full spectrum 15 watt (18") Instant Sun Fluorescent lamp from Verilux. It is a T8 light, 6280 Kelvin ACT and 94.5 CRI. Will this be sufficient lighting for my one plant?

3-The space sits at about a constant 60 degrees. Is this a good temp? If not how would I go about warming it up?

Thanks! Ill be posting pics once I get underway!

I have ordered all of my beans from worldwide and everyone of them has germinated and autoflowered. I'm happy with that site but there are plenty of other sites that sell the same beans from the same banks. The thing I like most about worldwide is that you can order single beans.

Try using a heat mat to help ya roots have some warmth...60 deg throughout won't quite get ya to where you wanna go IMO...my ain is 80 at pott level..85 max at foliage level...and that's with ventilation around the plants....with your lone bulb, you will be able to veg for a couple of weeks, but you wil need to add more energy to produce any measureable bud.
NL is a fav strain I grow...all my last 5 stretched to 4+ ft but yeilded about an oz per with major lst...
Get ya some more lighting, warm it up a bit, ventilate area....good luck...let su hear ya results! Green karma sent.

You definitely need a lot more light. 15 watts of T8, is nowhere near enough to carry you through your entire grow. I would look into some fixtures for a bunch of CFLs for that space. If it were a bitl larger, I would go with 2' T5s, but they will not fit in your space. You will probably need a propagation heat pad for your plants, at 60 degrees F.

Best of luck to you bro.

Good choice on seeds both have won awards and have held the test of time. One plant can accommodate your needs between grows. Otherwise, you would be knocking out walls to make room for another plant or two. A little goes a long way, particularly, if you vap. Sounds like worldwide is aok. A few seeds in mail should not be a big deal. Seed interception has not been a big deal. You have done the research and that is about half the battle--good luck and post some pics. Run your plan by some of the pros on the forum, e.g. your soil, fertilizers, etc.

Dont rush it Bro, I did at first and Im building another cab now the right way from the get go, I managed to get something out of my first grow but could be alot better if I didnt just rush and get the plants in there. And with more lights it will bring your temps up a bit. More Light the denser and thicker the nugs will be

Thanks for the help! Ive already found a heat pad to buy. I assume I just put the potted plant on top of it? Also, anyone have a good suggestion on a decent CFL light (wattage/brand) for my space? Appreciate it!
