    Hydroponic DWC LED Fridge Box, total cost: $55 to build and a few nasty cuts.

    I don't have the specs for the led light, but it's red and blue and my previous soil grows have loved it. :)

    I'm not going to train this plant at all - zero intervention other than regular nute purges.

    I'm using organic bloom nutes, organic nettle/bramble compost tea (pasturized), and plain hard-water from the tap. (Boiled then left to cool an evaporate some of the cap chems)

    The last pic is my tentative feeding schedule.

    This is 'Day 1' of this grow journal.

    It's important to note that for the purpose of this grow, I will not be using a pH meter, and will be going purely off of sight and feel. Become one with the force I shall! (This is also my first dwc..)


    SPECIAL THANKS: Special thanks to Jack from The Vault seed bank. Great customer service, and my order arrived within a few days which was pretty shocking. This strain in particular seems to be immune to mold, and hardy as hell when recovering from stress. I did notice that I had a hard time eliminating gnats with this strain, but the gnats didn't seem to affect the plants over all health. Even under duress, 6g has been a typical organic soil yield. Quality genetics at play. I shall definally order from The Vault again in the near future!

    Not quite two months, but I do when it's auto fed, auto watered and the lights on a timer. Lol Keep in mind I'm using the bare minimum to grow, seeing what can be done with as little as possible. I'm a huge fan of upcycling to reduce our footprint as growers. :)

    Besides, small batches give me room to dial in my boxes. ;)
     
  5. All good mate. Personally I smoke about 2.5 grams a day so I couldn't do that. I've done some looking around on forums and so far the best CFL Fridge I've seen is this one below. This is what I'm hoping to achieve with my one.

    It would have been been more if I hadn't been practicing on them, and had more lighting availble.

    The idea now is to get my feeding schedule dialed in, and then run 4 plants at once instead of 1.

    I thought about CFL bulbs (I have a giant one around here somewhere), but they use way more power and I'm already having heat issues with an LED.

    Building an ice box AC unit for the lower chamber as we speak. :)
     
  7. Subbed in!!!

    Let me kno how you build that AC unit I built a mini fridge myself and having heat issues myself first grow by the way

    This grow is closed, lost the crop. Running an Scott's OG crop atm, same box.. should I start a new grow journal?

    I just took an old Folgers tub, cut a hole in the lid - filled it with water, froze the tub and slapped a fan on it. Sealed with tape. 5 minutes tops! :)
     
  9. up to you if you want to start fresh with a new journal, but i hope you will continue recording, especially notes on fridge build/upgrades...i will be keeping an eye on this thread while thinking about doing my own fridge build and you have provided some great info very concisely...thanks! and good luck with the new grow
