Hey whats up? Anybody know any good methods for growing in apt's or any tips for doing it. I read about shroom wizard's method and that seems to be pretty good for a small space. Also, anyone know any good strains for descent yields from small spaces. I am a beginner but I have read alot about growing. Thanks for your thoughts.

Closets work wonders If you are cultivating for your first time, I recommend the Ecuadorian strain. I'm right in the middle of my first grow also (fruiting stage) good luck to you.
BTW, Pink Floyd is brilliant.

remembering that closets get very hot, so you`ll need to think of ventilating the cupboard as well is decreasing the ambient temperature.

My closet actually gets extremely cold. It's all very dependent on location. So, I have to use the aquarium heater Tek for my grows...

That`s quite interesting, have you got a vent of sorts in there?

No vents, nothing. I sware, there is no insulation around those walls. The temp drops to 64 every now and then. Luckily I've managed to keep my fruiting chamber around 71-75 with the help of a heater and bubbler. I think the terrarium actually heats my closet now

Ok you`re living in a std american house with super thin cardboard walls right? We have brick walls here. Once something goes into a closet you`d better make sure you watch it or it will get real hot in there.

Yea, but I think the ghosts will like the shrooms, so it's all cool. If they trip they may realize that they are one with us.

I was more so thinking about growing under behind my bed. I would grow im the closet but the electrical panel's in there and the dudes that work here go in there occasionally. Also.... if I cultivate in a tupperware shoebox type deal, what would be a good way of keeping the temp. ideal if the normal temp in the apt is about 70 degrees. I was also thinking of growing some eq's how are they potency and yield wise. Pink FLoyd is by far the pinnacle of all music.

If you have workers going under your bed every now and then, you're gonna have to make that incubator stealthy. Use Anno's Incubator Tek. for temperature, but of course, decrease the size of the containers drastically.

I'm sorry, but WTF is that all about? Fuck you, we have bricks too. We have mastered the technology of mud!-Thank you very much. Perhaps you need the brick wall because you are fucking surrounded by 100,000's of crazed AIDS infected, baby raping Africans???
And American is capitalized.
Have a nice day.

Dude, I hope this was a joke, if not, you have got to take uncle sam's dick out your ass and shove your head back up there.
If it is a joke, it was pretty good, its just hard to tell these days cause so many people get all defensive over america these . I mean I love this country, err, I love some of the principles of this country, but our government is full of assholes and our population is full of arrogant, close-minded, hypocritical sheep.

wow..that coffee table/chest idea sounds like it could have some potential. Instead of having flo lights in there i could probably just open it up for 2 hours a day after they pin. BTW is 12/12 a good cycle for pinning...
