1000 watt perpetual grow

Discussion in 'Indoor Grow Journals' started by Action32Jackson, Mar 17, 2012.

  1. I will be doing a perpetual grow where I will be aiming for 2 lbs a month. I have enough room for 12 5 gal pots in my tent. I will be putting in a set of 6 then when they are half way through flowering I will throw in another set of 6. Here are the specs...

    Equipment:


    Flowering tent ( 4x4 ):
    -1000 watt hps cool tube

    Pots:
    -5 gallon
    -black gold organic mix

    Plants:
    -6 Hindu Kush/Cinderella Afghani

    Nutrients::
    -advanced nutrients for flowering
    & other additives from AN and other brands

    Lighting:
    Veg - 250 watt cfl
    Flower : 1000 watt hps

    ***** I currently have a scrog set going right now and when I put in my new set of 6 into flower I will just put them around the scrog grow. My scrog grow isn't getting me enough weight so I am trying a new method and just got about 5k worth of new equipment. They will be done in two weeks or so.

    I will post pics soon
     
  2. Yesterday was day one for the clones into 5 gal pots with black gold organic soil.
    I plan on letting them grow for almost two weeks or less before switching over to flower.

    I've been having problems in my flowering room with humidity levels, temp levels, and co2 levels.

    My temps right now are good because it's cold outside here in California. My co2 levels are around 250-350 ppm throughout the day. I know they should be at least 1000 more ppm but what are good co2 levels throughout the flowering cycle.????? My humidity levels are also in the 30s during the day and jumps to the 60-70s at night. What are good rh levels throughout the cycle as well??? During the day and at night???
     
  3. Yesterday, I watered all veg plants after transplanting with general hydroponics flora grow at half strength with fox farm bush doctor root drench at full strength.

    I also used Mycos plant food when transplanting the next set of 6 into the 5 gal pots.(put them at the rootball)

    Foliage spray - Dutch masters gold penetrator & liquid light.

  8. 2lbs/month is a shitload of work and a shitload of money in nutes and electricity, I know first hand. You need to be pulling a qp every week and that is not easy, especially with 1kw of light. Not to mention cloning and vegging constantly to keep up that pace. good luck
