Afghan Kush Ryder + Easy Rider in my newly outfitted box.

Hey Grasscity, just finished putting my box together and figured it was high time I got started on my next grow . This grow will consist of two auto-flowering strains which have been highly recommended - Lowrider seeds "Easy Rider" and World of Seeds "Afghan Kush Ryder." Just popped em' into the dirt about an hour and a half ago. This will be my 3rd grow.

What I'm using
2 - 3 gallon pots with 100% coco coir
Canna coco A + B and Calmag
Custom built PVC light bar that can hold up to 10 CFLs (I plan on using 10 - 23 watt bulbs for a total of 230 watts)
2 fans for intake / outake
some kind of mylar (the kind with the bubble wrap in the middle)

Pics here in a second. Let me know if you have any other questions

 

I got the original idea from StuntShine420 but adopted it to fit my box. In my earlier grow I used a smaller one but built this one specifically to fit this box.

^ please do I'm hoping I can get at least 2 oz off of each plant. Also building something like this isn't really that hard to do either. I originally got this box at a garage sale for $10, put a couple holes in for fans, mounted the mylar with velcro, and added the light bar and there you have it .

I still have a few things I need to do to it though:
1. Lightproof
2. Add a DIY hood which I will probably use turkey baking pans again becuz its CHEAP
3. Carbon filter (maybe)

 

Both sprouted this morning

First is Easy Rider and the second is Afghan Kush Ryder.

 

Hey guys sorry I haven't been able to update lately, my laptop died and I'm still in the process of sending it in to get fixed >.>

Anyways, its been 2 weeks and they're both looking great! I slighly lightproofed the box, but still need to touch up on a few things. I also added a diy hood made from baking pans and got new chains so that I can lower and raise my lights a lot easier. Heres a few pictures, what do you guys think?

ps, let me get the measurements on the box and I'll post em here.

1st pic: overview with lights lowered just a few inches above plants
2nd pic: Easy Rider - I swear this thing gets bigger everytime I look at it !
3rd pic: Afghan Kush Ryder - Not quite as good growth as the Easy Rider but looks just as healthy

 

Its just under 3ft tall.

What exactly do you need pics of? I mean if you followed that post from before, you can pretty much make this light fixture anyway you would like as long as it fits your box.

 

Yeah smell can be hard to deal with at times. These two plants are actually putting off quite a smell if you stand close to the box. A carbon filter + ONA gel will significantly reduce the smell coming from your plants. You can make a carbon filter for cheap and get the ONA gel for 12 bucks online.

 

The doors actually fit pretty snug, but if that wasn't enough - the material that I'm using for reflecting is hanging over a little bit on each door.

As for an update - I was wanting to wait to this Wednesday because that would make them 3 weeks old.. but I'm feeling up to it so I can do it tonight Everything is going great, they both look super healthy and the Easy Rider is still exploding with growth. I've been using 1 gallon of water every watering with 5ml of both Canna coco A + B and 5ml of Calmag.

Also, can anyone tell me when autoflowering plants start flowering? I'm asking because I'm currently using 8 daylight cfls and 2 soft white cfls.

Hmm tryed to upload some pics but it's not working >.> Let me try again

 

Here we go!

2 and 3 is easy rider and the last one is afghan kush
