    Whatsup GC! currently i am growing outdoor right now but cant grow outdoor during winter where i am so i have decided that im going to setup an indoor grow in a closet,


    Supplys

    white panda film
    ducktape
    velcro
    nails
    wood

    going to take away some of the height from the closet so i get more lumens per square foot. itll be about 4.5-5.0 feet tall

    400w MH
    400w HPS CUSTOM SPEC
    400w MH/HPS ballast
    6 inch air cooled hood
    6 inch flexible ducting
    6 inch fan 400 cfm (exhaust)
    6 inch fan 400cfm turned down ( intake)
    circulating fan inside right below foilage ( plants will be lollipoped and lstd


    Since im going to be doing this during winter i dont think im going to vent outside because i can just leave my window open and it will cool down my room in no time.

    STRAINS

    BC GOD BUD 8-9 weeks flower
    SWEET GOD 6-8 weeks flower
    BC CHEESE 9 weeks flowr
    PRE 98 BUBBA 8 weeks flower


    Fox farms ocean forest potting soil mixed with my own soil i bought from a nursery 45 year old mixture and organic

    perlite


    peatmoss


    5 gal containers


    VEG TIME

    will veg for about 5 - 7 weeks if 7 i can get 5 feedings in veg, plus all through bloom


    NUTES

    AN Mother Earth super tea bloom
    AN mother earth super tea grow
    iguana juice grow
    iguana juice bloom
    final phase
    big bud
    bud candy
    cal mag
    ph up
    ph down
    bud ignitor

    ph/ppm tester

    temp / humidity reader

    going to do agressive lst and trim sucker branches kinda going to do a scrog but with lst just pull them out at about 2 weeks 1 day and lst it all the way down than from there just lst anything you can making as many tops as possible

    also getting a carbon filter to attach onto my exhaust, the carbon filter and the reflector will all be connected to 1 fan the exhaust, than i have my intake and a fan blowing inside, but since itll be winter i can open windows

    i will be using water from my tap that i let sitout for 1- 7 days and i use it on a plant right now and its working very well

    im also going to include a 150w hps with a ballast in the relfector underneath for side lighting i think that will help me quite alot, i can also use it sometime during veg because itll be getting the light from a 400WMH wich makes the specs perfect during veg with the 150w hps, than in flower have the 400w hps going with the 150w.

    SEPERATE VEG ROOM

    im going to setup a CFL veg room inside the same closet, itll hold 4 mother plants bonsai style this way i can take about 20 clones per week and keep the plants so little im talking as wide as a dollar bill.

    TOPPING

    im also going to top all 4 plants atleast 2-3 times, really make them as bushy as possible so i can keep the canopy to fill thole hole area of the space i give it and also keep the canopy very even,

    im hoping to get about 1 pound give or take a bit, im also considering get 2 150w systems just to put underneath to really get evreything direct light, hard to get big buds under the canopy

    HARVEST


    on day of harvest i will cut down the plants trime them on site, hang them by string in a closet with a fan inside the closet NOT blowing on the buds on low , than slo wly close the door after 1-2 days time, than after 6-10 days into glass jars to cure for 2 weeks
