long time shroomery user   (my last 2 tubs) and have been putting off coming here as long as i could. i have always just been a big fan of outdoor growing just for the ease of it and had the space. nothing outrageous just some for my wife and i (2 from one of our last grows) but i can do the outside thing anymore and really don't know were to begin with everything that's changed over the last few years. i had 1 500W HPS and 2 drip system hydro pots but sad to say the law has taken from us before we moved. so now i want to do something less bulky i guess with not such a hit on my light bill like it used to be. so were should i begin? or even just a few links that some of you started with? thanx to new friends or any one i already know from shroomery.

like i said last time i was growing indoors you needed allot of space which i don't have for at least a year and CFL and LED were not even an option back then. so i guess i was trying to get out of reading through allot of stuff like i did on shroomery and maybe have a few links of a few good setups or at least were i should start as a beginner again. allot has changed and i tried to do a few searches but got overwhelmed with all the new info these days

I never even used light bulbs. I just left my plant by the window. It takes care of itself at room temperature.

You don't want to do ^^^^^that^^^^^^^ unless you don't care about your yields though.
Why not do just a small 150-400W Scrog grow? It won't take much space, and the difference in your bills will be negligible.
Hey Dr S: Why don't we take this one over to the cult forums?

Well honestly you won't find a better bang for your buck with any different type of light. If you thought your electricity was too high before and don't have much room to work with, I would suggest getting a smaller HPS light maybe a 400w or 250w (or even a 150w if you're okay with that). Also it would be minimal, but it would take less electricity to have a Soil grow vs. Hydro, but you sacrafice some growth.
Maybe a Mod could move this to Cultivation?

Also, I hate to be the one to say it, but try using the search at the top of the page, you'll likely be able to asnwer all the questions you have Or go browse through the Cultivation and Grow Journal sections to look at what other people have done, and get some ideas.

I would just do it naturally for the first three months. The females will grow forever after the first three months. I've seen some tall house plants.

BMS: That is straight misinformation.
FF: You can still do the 24/7 to 12/12 with a very low incidence of hermaphroditic qualities. Many growers (including me) still do that.

You do the longer lighting periods after you've cultivated them for the first time.
