# There's a Misconception About Cannabis Requiring Large Spaces
the truth of the matter, cannabis simply loves to thrive. Today's compact fluorescent and LED lighting allow low power, high quality cannabis grows. Grows which can easily be constructed to contain the lights and smells produced when growing cannabis. 

The ability to inexpensively get into cannabis cultivation is a huge boon to many. People are constantly finding out they're not growers, after spending thousands of dollars on equipment. Micro growing allows you to inexpensively find out if you're geared to be a grower or not. 

Should you have the skills for growing, you will significantly benefit from having a micro grow. :) Already a grower? Breeding projects, quarantine chambers and bonsai mums all benefit from a micro grow environment.

# Here's My 45 Watt LED Powered Veg Cabinet
This is a shelf, on my wall, that is 22" tall, 22" wide and almost 10" deep. I've taken a reflective sun shade for cars and tucked it into the space. One staple holds the folded end. The loop used to hold the folded shade together neatly, is loosely draped over a hook when pulled across the front. This creates a small, reflective space where cooler air can enter from the bottom, warm up and rise and eventually exit out the top. A constant, slow rise of air from convection. :)

## Simple Hardware Store Parts for Lighting
You can see I've used 3 lamp sockets, A corded plug, a few drywall screws and some wire nutes. Three 15 watt, Screw-In LED replacement bulbs are used for lighting. Everything was picked up at a hardware store, very economically.
