Here's some stuff that i grew back in 99. Sorry for the blury image's, digital camra where not widely available back then. Had to use an old 35mm disposable. Then took digital pics of the 35mm...lol
The setup i used was a little alcove closet.
I would not recommend using the cardboard. it was the only thing available to me at the time.
The setup was also located in my bedroom. Under supervision at all time. I painted the inside of the cardboard flat white for max lighing luminus.
Florescents where used to give light under the plants to minimize dieing leaves.

The lighting... 400watt MH (universal mount). Bought off e-bay for around 85 buck. no hood, or housing. This was a striped down model not even prewired. Although it did come with
everything need to wire. including the plug cord, and a wireing diagram.

My baby's when they where babys..lol

These where my baby's, around 3 1/2 feet tall, 3 or 4 weeks into flowering. (maybe more..i forget)

Them again in top down view. (sorry shitty cam and im no professional)

One of the colas... This picture really dose not do justice for this cola. This thing was a monster.

Ok well... Let start by saying the smell these plants produced was very potent. Kinda skunky. Trust me when you walked in the house you knew. and if you touched the plants they would smell the whole house up even more. Fertalizer was a 20-10-10 liquid. during veg. And started using 5-10-10 or something like that during flowering. I couldn't tell ya how it tasted or the buzz. (read below). But i bet it would have been kick azz.
Ok onto the sad side of this grow. The reason this grow ended up to be bad was that these plants where stolen right outta my house. The person who stole them used to be a good friend of mine.
Just go's to show you why you should never ever tell anyone about your growing. Although mine was hard to hide seeing it was right in my bedroom in plain view. Let this be a lesson to all. Never tell anyone about your grow. But i guess karma paid the kid back. he's serveing 10 years for armed robbery. I love Karma!!!
