Hi ppl, Done some bush growing b4 but finally got to the point where I had to give indoors a go. So there I am in a cupboard and I realise that I need to have something to drain the nutrients coming out of the pot, as the cupboard will soon rot. So I got a pot tray from K-Mart, but I can see this will just be a problem because the nutrient wont go anywhere and I will have to lift the plant up to drain it out. I am still at the seedling stage so lifting isn't a problem now, but what are the best drainage solutions for a cupboard?

its me again love the site and all your advise. Here is another couple of questions. when in bloom , lets say three weeks into it, top lookin nice , starting to fill out. is it safe to presume that by removing the lower branches, the scanky lookin buds and storky branches that get stuff all light . will this aid the top to bud better or not. and is it true u cant look at your plants or should i say show them any light no matter what during lights off, cause my mate recons it doznt harm them or slow them down but ive read different. oh and one last question: why is the sky blue

I know theres about 4000 fan questions on this board but I just wanted an opinion on my fan situation and basically double check my thought process I have 5 120mm computer fans running on 3 dimmer switchs 2 intake 2 exhaust 1 circulation Each fan rougly moves 18-30 cfm of air, this in my 4x4x2 grow cube. Does this sound like an adiquate about of air flow? The reason I went with the computer fans is obviously cheap to run, small and super super quiet (all double ball-bearing)...... Any thoughts on wether or not it will be enough please let me know. Thank you

hey ya here,s a good idea for a cheap nft recirc system, all you need is a flat plastic storage bin with top ie under bed storers are perfect, also you need a medium pond pump x Kmart $17.00 under bed storer about $12.00 from most salvage stores 1 13 /15 mm t piece about 12 cm of garden hose , not for bong,,, Tools required drill 1 self tapping screw small, stanley knife or similar instructions as follows , mind your fingers and play safe.
