So. Pretty much here is the breakdown. I am moving in a couple weeks and I have decided to do a mix of dwarfs from Attitude.. I haven't picked the seeds yet. I starting this new grow completely from scratch. I have a digital 400w HPS with an air cool tube, carbon air filter, and will have an entire extra bedroom I can use. I want to set up a tent with an area of 5x5 ft maybe more to grow. I want to keep this real simple. I just need some advice. I plan on purchasing 2 or 3 Hydrofarm EMSYST Emily's System's that will give me 12-18 sites (unless you know a better "plug and play" for the same price $65 each.. $195USD total) I figured dwarfs would do well in these. I want to get 5 seeds each from 5 different strains of auto dwarfs.. I also need help choosing these. I want them from attitude seedbank. of course i want the highest yeilding plants.. and i want a wast diversity of strains... Any help you guys can give me will be greatly appreciated.. loving you guys !! Also I will be making a very active journal of this grow and will post a link as soon as the setup is complete and my seeds arrive!
I have been researching this for a while... plan is still the same.. I am thinking of going aeroponic.. Anarchy makes a 12 site system for under 300.. includes everything but nutes... what do you think? here are the dwarf strains im thinking of buying... -Short Stuff Seeds Blue Himalaya Diesel (5 seeds) -Delicious Seeds La Diva Feminized Automatic (5 seeds) -Big Buddha Seeds Automatic Feminized (5 seeds) -Lowryder Diesel Ryder Feminized (5 seeds) -Paradise Seeds Pandora Autoflowering Feminized (5 seeds +3 extra free) Also I will get one of each of the following for free with my order UFO#1 Delicious Seeds Il Diavolo Feminized Automatic UFO#2 Delicious Seeds Northern Light Blue Feminized UFO#3 Delicious Seeds Sugar Black Rose Feminized UFO#4 Dinafem Seeds Diesel Feminized UFO#5 G13 Labs Purple Haze Feminized ANY ADVICE??
well i was waiting on some advice... but nobody here seemed to help... i will be moving to a different forum... i cant wait any longer.. i have to place this order... good luck with all your grows guys... sorry mime didnt interest any of you..
There is tons of advice on here if you look around but it sounds like a plan to me. If it were me I would grow in small pots of soil (3gal) it will give you more control over individual plants.Also that 400 watt lamp you have will be fine for 4-6 auto plants but you might want to add some side lighting and do a 20/4 cycle. Those seeds sound good and dont over feed them and remember they flower early so keep an eye on flushing times and feeding formulas. If you plant in soil you wont have to feed them for 3 weeks except supplements. Good luck.
I have got allot of great advice from this guy and his journal http://forum.grasscity.com/indoor-g...flower-grow-start-finish-seed-production.html
Thats a good idea. I was torn between soil and hydro.. especially since I have never grown dwarfs.. I think ill just get a tent, filter and fans. I have a 4 ft 2 tube t5 and some cfls as well... ill put them in some foxfarm and see what happens.. Thanks
Definatly look up on some low stress training, ive done them with all my auto's with absolutly incredible results. Good luck
Ya i have been researching for weeks.. i figured rubber bands and clips would be effective... im gonna try to do like 9-12 plants in a 4x4 tent
As far as the strains the lowrider ak-47 is out of this world with a fairly low smell.Im also growing buddha red dwarf and thats supposed to be a good one as well. Im growing mostly out doors with other strains like lsd, super silver haze,Holland's hope,Durban poison and NL but my auto im gona try a few in this aerogarden i got cheap.Its my first attempt indoors so im really just experimenting. good luck
I ordered my beans.. they should be here in a few days.. i almost got some ak47 but they were out... so instead i ordered 3 Samsara Seeds Supersonic Cristal Storm Automatic fem 3 Sweet Seeds Big Devil Feminized 5 Paradise Seeds Vertigo Feminized 1 SAGARMATHA SEEDS AK48 Automatic Feminized and i got some freebies 1 T H Seeds Burmese Kush Feminized 1 T H Seeds Kushage Feminized 1 T H Seeds S.A.G.E Feminized 1 Dinafem Seeds Blue Hash 2 T H Seeds Heavy Duty Fruity 2 T H Seeds Darkstar 1 G13 Labs New Strain Feminized 1 Dinafem Seeds Blue Widow 1 Dinafem Seeds Critical + I am gonna do foxfarm ocean forest and a 400HPS with a carbon filter in a tent... i will prolly try to do all 12 i paid for in 3 gal nursery pots in a 4x4 tent... i have some awesome nutes... including botanicare Pure Blend Pro GROW, Pure Blend Pro BLOOM, Liquid Karma. I also have some advanced nutrients bud ignitor and some advanced nutrients final phase.. it should be an AMAZING grow
Sounds like you're going to have some fun. Just out of curiosity, why so many strains in one grow? Trying to see what kind of high you like best from which strains? Are you worried the grow rates will vary. I guess I don't know if they would or not. Last question. Are you going to try to get some clones going so you can have a perpetual grow or are you just going to reseed when this is over? I'm excited to see how you do. I have a grow room set up which is pretty large right now, but I'm thinking of getting a tent soon myself. My grow room door is blocked off by a comforter that I sewed activated charcoal filters on.....My dog likes to go in and drink out of my water reservoir , its pissing me off so I may move to a tent.
I just wanna grow alot of different strains at once so i will have a variety.. You know sometimes you just want something different... and the freebies were just a perk!! Im not to worried about the grow rates.. i can always rearrange them or buy another tent and light.. I have ALOT of room to work with All the seed I bought are autos... you cant clone them because flowering is based on genetics rather than the light cycle. So i will have to reseed. but i dont mind. depending on the outcome of this grow i might just order a couple hundred seeds and offset the next couple of grows for a consistent perpetual grow. I will post a journal of the grow once it starts.. How is that comforter working out? you could always build a tent inside your room out of polly and pvc pipe and filter out of it... it would be cheap and you could line the poly with mylar for more reflectivity... and it would solve your pup issues
Nice, I have a ton of room to work with as well. Ya, I have two rooms one is 10 feet by 12 feet and my veg room is 4' by 4' (walled off in the utility room), and you're right I'm in the process of creating a tent soon. I've got a bit of a unique situation. I have two types of grows. I grow vegetables and herbs as well organically. The MJ is for my fiance who is dying of pancreatic cancer. None of her prescription meds for nausea do a damned thing and I got fed up watching her throw up blood because she had torn her throat up from puking too much. She went from 120lbs to 85lbs. I am convinced MJ saved her life. Her appetite immediately comes back after smoking. So for me I have to have a perpetual grow without worrying about if seeds arrive (however I order them while my clones are rooting and plant them side by side just in case). Inside my flowering room I have two lighting systems, one to allow the plants to continue to grow larger in vegetative state (CFLs which are gigantic, each one is equivalent to 400W) and then the HPS digital system for flowering. Funny enough, I leave the CFLs on the same timer as the HPS system when I begin flowering and it made my basil, hot peppers, strawberries, chives and tomatoes flower, which was kick ass because it helped me figure out how to get more produce AND seeds from those plants. The comforter literally covers the cut out doorway in the room I finished for the grow. Inside the room I also have a carbon scrubber I built using a huge honeywell vortex fan. We used to have strong smells but no longer. Right now the comforter is secured to the door way (it's thick and black) on three sides so you simply grab the one side to open and it closes with gravity. However, the dog can enter as he wants. I'm going to install snaps. It was expensive to build because I used active carbon filters X 40 sewed on and eventually they'll stop working. Anyway, I've never grown auto's so I'm looking forward to subbing to your grow.
Wow Im sorry to hear that about your fiance. I have dealt with cancer in my family as well. Its hard, but it sounds like you are taking it well. MJ is an amazing medicine. maybe you could cut a hole in the door and attach a filter and fan to it with ducting... that would be cool. sounds like you have a nice setup. My girlfriend loves habanero peppers. I am thinking of growing some for her under the same conditions as the meds... Ill go ahead and make the journal and post the link
Here is a link to the journal... I Will begin as soon as I have the seeds.. just figured i would make the thread now. http://forum.grasscity.com/indoor-grow-journals/769702-multi-strain-automatic-female-grow.html
