    So i used to have a 3k watt flower room and a 1200 watt veg room in arizona but some shit went down so i had to move to the east coast. i wasnt able to take any of my grow stuff so im starting over.

    I am starting this grow so i can smoke weed without paying a grip for some alright dank. t cost around 300 dollars a oz so i know i can grow it for cheaper and it will be wayyyyy bomber.

    here is what i have spent so far on my grow:
    180 on seeds
    420 on lights,nutes
    82 on inline fan
    75 on screws nails and plastic, solo cups, etc.
    29 on ph meter
    98 on 3cu feet of FFOF,fan speed dimmer,6x 1.7 gallon pots.
    884.00 spent[​IMG]
    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    so i made a 6x4x7 room out of black plastic and put a 5000 btu ac unit in. Put up 600 watt mh/hps galaxy digtal ballast in a lowrider 6" hood. Hooked hood up to a 6in inline fan hooked up to a fan speed dimmer. a 16inch oscillating fan.

    got 6 plants, there are 2 blue cheese that are 2 weeks old also 2 tangerine dream that are 2 weeks old. 1 OG13 that is 2 weeks old and 1 bag seed that is 6 weeks old and was under cfls now they are all under a 600 watter.

    so for soil im using FFOF. Nutes are big bloom,tiger bloom,grow big,cha ching,beastie blooms,open sesame, aza-max,Earthjuice Catalyst. Havent used any heavy nutes yet just a little big bloom 1.5 tsp per gallon. Also just transplant all 6 plants into 1 gallon pots. Temp at plant tops is about 80F, in the room the temp is 76F. at night when the light and inline fan shut off it drops down to 70-74F.

    All i need now is Uvonair 3000 Ozone Generator Odor Control Hydroponics | eBay. will upload pics of grow when lights come on.

  5. Bumb sauce all over this bitch
     
  6. Looking good man;; Ill wager that since you planned and setup your grow properly youll results will be nice. If this is your journal ill be sticking around!
     
  7. Hey captain if you don't min me asking how you made the room, I'm planning Something stupidly similar, if not a bit larger. Did you just build a frame and staple the plastics to the frame? What's the entry like?
    How do you keep it light proof?
     
  8. I used black plastic with duct tape and some 1x10's cut down to the size i need em. velcroed one part of the plastic to the wall for a door. keeped lightproof by over lapping the layer of black plastic like a lasagna.

    @2bugs nice to have you here
     
  9. Going to water today, also will post some better pics with the update
     
  10. subbed dude can't wait to see that money turn into weed haha

  13. Nice, I just got free sample of "powdered co2" as well, made by extreme gardens, like to see that answered as well, also your Babies are looking nice :)
     
  14. Yea my main thing is i hate mold and dont want to burn holes in my leafs.
     
  15. black plastic is a no no
     

  16. ROFL have mylar just havent put it up yet. Havent had any time plus the plants are small so i figured it could wait. and i have used just black plastic in mad scrog grows and it worked out just fine;).
     
  17. might be time for 1/2 strength nutes

    powdered co2 sound fine carbonated water works also but be careful spraying late into flower
     
  18. IDK about the 1/2str nutes, i just put them in FFOF about 1 1/2 weeks ago, they were in sunshine#4. So i want to wait til about the 2nd 1/2 week they are in those pots for nutes. I still add earth juice catalyst, big bloom,root drench, and micro brew every watering. Just no hard nutes. The C02 I will spray on right as the lights go off and about 30 min's before they come on.
    TY for speaking up on the c02.



    :hello:
     
  19. Just watered last night with 2 tsp of earth juice catalyst,2 tablespoons of big bloom,4 tsp of root drench, and 2 tsp micro brew. Will post some pics. i think im just going to add a sun system 150 watt hps, they are only 74.99 at the hydro store.
