Sup folks, this is my first journal and first time growing (technically 2nd as I had 30 seeds stretch themselves to death due to neglect caused by a busy work schedule ). I am downsizing this grow (to 12) to better understand the process and to hone my skills as a cultivator. Hopefully by making a journal, I will receive help and wisdom from fellow experienced gardeners and absorb their knowledge. While my goals are high quality buds with a good sized yield (min 2 lbs overall (dried)), I really am just aiming to learn this time around. Strain: 6 Lemon Haze and 6 OG Kush Percentages: LH: 40% Sativa 60% Indica. OGK: 25% Sativa 75% Indica Stage: Seedling (3 days) Where: Indoors Soil/Hydro: Hydro (5 gal buckets) Lights: T5 6400K (for seedlings), 6 1000w MH (for veg), 6 1000w HPS (for flower) Aircooled: Yes, but concern over fan size. Have 1 6" 430 CFM fan connected to all 6 1000w bulbs... Temp: Room is controlled via swam cooler between 79F and 90F Medium: Rapid Rooters for the seeds, growstones (ceramic glass) for transplant Nutrients: GH Flora Bloom/Gro/Micro, CaliMagic, Floralicious Plus Size of the room is roughly 12' long by 12' wide by 8' tall. I plan on raising them around 3' - 3.5' tall in 5 gal buckets (heat of strong bulbs will determine if I can risk them being that high) through a SCRoG. Pictures do not show the screen as Im in the process of building them out of pvc pipes and plastic fencing from Home Depot. I would really truly appreciate any helpful feedback. Thank you.
My girls: All from feminized seeds. OG Kush from HSO and Lemon Haze from Queen Royal Seeds. I have them sitting by an oscillating fan to stress the stems to make them grow stronger. P.S. Dont know how to rotate photos, sorry.
My setup: Room can hold up to 30 plants; 2 routes of 15 buckets connected via tubes to 1 of 2 55 gal drums to be filled by mix of RO water and nutes from GH. (Ebb and Gro) 6 reflectors lined up in 2 rows of 3. Can hold 1000w HID bulbs.
