with 600 watts you wont need $200. sounds like you have got just about everything.

 

Depends on your space and what you want to grow.

Take $20 to bunnings and grab 3 or 4 20 litre buckets with lids.

Take $30 and get a resun 4 outlet air pump

15 metres of tubing and 4 air stones or curtains $10 - 15

Pool noodle $4

 

Save the rest for things like nutes and meters

It’s your 1st go so I wouldn’t go over the top with recirculation n shit.

If you have any problems they will be confined to the one-bucket rather than going into the res and spreading through the whole system.

can you be a bit more specific about the grow room? like how big is the area? how many plants do you want to grow? how much do you want to yield? have you already bought/aquired genetics yet? etc..

 

the more specific you are the more help we can offer :smoke

 

like if i go hydro shop do they ask for my adress and shit all i know is to say im growing tomatoes haha yeh so just help i wass looking some around nsw but still havent even gone in

 

i have been told by a few hydro shop workers that they are pretty sure 99.99% of people that shop there are growing marijuana, they usually say herb or not growing tomatoes :) but you get the idea ;) they know what you are doing and will respect your privacy in most cases....i knew 1 shop where all people were just given a number instead of them giving details for lay-bys so no details were exchanged, you just handed your reciept over with the money and when paid for, you got the item and no details, not even phone numbers or a first name are exchanged...most will probably ask for a phone number and a name but you can usually just make those up as long as you keep the reciept in a safe place....

it will cost the same to get a drink from maccas to use the cup as a pot as it would to buy a decent pot from big-w + you dont get the pain of tasting watered down coke or a more accurate description is watered down cola flavouring :)

 

also, i strongly suggest that you get some seeds from a seedbank or clones from someone who has grown really good pot in the past...starting from unknown genetics givin to you by a friend is a great way of asking for a hermi crop that wont even get you stoned :thumbdown sure you might get lucky, but chances are you'll end up with an average plant that takes way too long to flower and yields dismally if you use bagseed :thumbdown

 

wish you the best of luck and keep us updated :smoke
