Hey folks. I'm new here. My name is CaptainPeck :D:. I'm in the construction phase of medium sized closet grow. My goal is to be do this as high-tech as possible on a non-existent budget. I am lucky to be ridiculously resourceful. I've got a 2' x 5' x 8' bedroom closet that I will be converting into a 24 site hydro farm using 1200+ watts T5. First though, I'm working on this smaller grow cabinet that started life as a Thomasville dresser/tv stand. I've got a 250watt MH that I scavenged from an old PetSmart aquatic plant grow tank. I cannibalized an old pentium tower for the atx power supply and 3 fans. I have an ozone generator/ionizer for odor control and I'll probably use some carbon as well. My reflective material was free too. So far the only money I've got invested is in the actual hydro supplies. My White Ryder seeds are even being donated by Matt Riot of Riot Seeds. I'm pretty excited to get things going and I'm finding patience to be the biggest hurdle. I want to do it right. My only growing experience is from a few bag seeds I tried to grow this spring. I managed to get one about 3 feet tall in a 5 gallon bucket outside but it grew big balls so it got tossed into the burn pile.

I want to grow my own cannabis for different reasons. First.... I'm tired of having to go down to the ghetto and park by the second trash dumpster at the housing project to get $100 an oz dirt weed from whichever thug is closest to the door. It's just a shady deal all around, Second.... I have severe nerve damage from a failed back surgery that causes uncontrollable spasms several times a day. In keeping this under control I have become a pretty heavy user. I can go through a 1/4 pound in 2 weeks and think nothing of it.

I've been doing my research for years. I've joined countless forums and lurked in the shadows absorbing information like a tampon but this is my first post on any forum. I only recently came to learn about autoflowering strains and they appeal to me in many ways. I'll be starting a grow journal in the future. I've been documenting the process with photos and HD video and will be sharing as much as I can.

So yeah. Hello ! Here I am. I'm glad to be a part of this site. Everybody seems very friendly and positive and I think I'll fit in nicely.

Welcome to AFN Captain Peck, glad to have you on the forum. It looks like you have a very nice start to a grow cabinet. Resourceful you are! You should have plenty of help as needed and feel free to ask if there is something you can't find. Everyone here is very helpful.

Maybe 1/4 lb in two weeks of borderbud but once you hit that homegrown you are about to grow I have a feeling your usage will cut down quite a bit!
 
Glad to have you CaptainPeck :smokebuds:
 
Good to meet ya captain, welcome to the family
 
Hey Captain! Welcome Aboard! ^_^

Blighme .. i don't blame you mate - it's disgraceful that decent people are channelled towards these dangerous situations over something as mundane as canna (although in fairness, at least America are making positive steps in the right direction!)

mini-rant over lol, Happy growing, and if you need any assitance around the forums just hit us up and we'll be happy to try and point you in the right direction!

All the best

Blue ^_^
