Indoor Gardener

[gregm112]

My name's Greg, 28 from upstate NY. I'm a musician/artist and a first time grower. I've suffered from Fibromyalgia for the past 6 years and have read that changing my diet can help. Everything seems to have fluoride, high fructose corn syrup, bht preservative, aspertame (aminosweet) etc. So I got fed up and decided to grow my own non gmo organic food.

I've got a 4x4x7 room with a 600 watt HPS light, and bunch of blue fluorescent lights that are in the mail. I'm so excited to get started!

I've got a long list of things I want to grow (strawberries, potatoes, onions, peas, peppers, peanuts, broccoli,lettuce, etc...). I've also got a long list of questions which ill take to a diff forum section once I'm up and running. :D

WOW! Sounds like you are doing all the right things, for all the right reasons! Welcome to the boards!

Welcome. Do you have any outdoor space to work with?

[gregm112]

Thx for the warm welcome. I do have some outdoor space but I'm completely lost as to what will do good here in Buffalo, NY. I'm prolly going to move what I can outside by spring. That HPS light will prolly be too warm for summer. I ordered some 3000k fluorescent lights until I can manage the HPS heat.

Feel free to post a pic of your outdoor space. I'm sure all of us can give you suggestions to get you started.

Will do. I would like to post You-Tube videos of my entire grow. If I can convince my parents to let my borrow their camcorder for a few months :p
