Hey all,
I'm from Belgium, new to this forum and about to start my first grow ever. (noob warning!)
I wanted to grow just one plant since it is for personal use and I'm just curious how it all works.
I'm planning to grow in a old cardboard box from my printer which is about the size of a desktop.
The problem is that I'm just a student and I'm working with a budget. I think I have all the material I need, but I'm still struggeling with the light. Since I'm growing in a cardboard box I want to use LED lighting to reduce heat problems. All the growing LED lights are to big for my box and I've found some LED strips which may work?
bol.com | 2* 5 meter LED strip, verlichting, RGB, compleet 401564
These are 2 LED strips of 5m (16.5 feet) with 72W so a total of 144W. I can cover the whole upper side of the box with these LED lights.
Do you guys think this is going to work? Or are there other suggestions? Maybe those 1 bulb grow LED lightings, but they are just 20W or so?
Thanks
