Whats up Grasscity! Switched to a new grow room today and i will be growing these 5 plants in my small attic. I have one plant which is in her 4th week of Vegetative stage. & 4 little one week old babies. -------------------------------------------------- -18/6 light schedule -2 cfl bulbs on my bigger plant -1 cfl bulb on the 4 babies ALL cfl bulbs use 25 watts each 1650 lumens each. Daylight not softwhite. --------------------------------- -Vigoro organic potting soil --------------------------------------------- every 2-3 days i water my older plant. Mist my babies everyday if their soil looks dry. --------------------------------------------------------- PLEASE LEAVE ADVICE, FEEDBACK, anything ! thanks Grass city forum\s\\! cheers!
My advice is twofold: 1. If you live in an area with snow in the winter, attic grows are a big no-no.....you will be the only house with no snow on the roof (hear from grow melts it), which is an easy giveaway that you are growing. 2. Attics are notoriously bad for regulating temps.....way too hot in the summer and way too cool in the winter. Just some things to consider....basements or extra bedrooms make far better grow rooms for the above reasons.
Careful with that soil. My dad used it and it burned the hell out of his ladies. It has time released nutes.
