i'm amazed. i really wanna start growing but i live with four other people so it's practically impossible, i mean one being paroled here. lol. i'm moving out soon and then i'm dedicated an entire workspace.
I will use my first post in this forum to say this... wtf people? Read the damn thread before posting "links don't work". I don't think you can get past five posts before seeing that OG has been shut down. I'm new to all of this (and when I say new I mean I was given a plant this past weekend and this was the first thread that got pulled up from google) but I was able to wrap my mind around the broken links within the first thirty seconds of reading. Perhaps I'm just not smoking enough weed, haha.
heres my setup just made it today, its two outdoor night lamps, ones 70watt hps, and the other is 70watt mh, i plan on doing single cola plants and the scrog method, this will be my first grow threw, ive never finished a crop, i plan on making a mother chamber once i find a nice female i like, and clone it.
Hey I'm trying to find the best situation to grow, I'm looking to grow atleast 10-15 plants at once, as well have a spot for clones and veging. I'm not 100% sure how big of a closet space or what light size to use to pull this off? anyone give me a hand?
i plan to grow 2 barney's LSD strains in a 10 gallon rubbermade tote (many wholes drilled for drainage/aeration) in 2 parts african violety low ph potting soil plus 1 part moisture controll potting soil and a good bit of perlite all is potting soil so no real dirt... i have an "all in one meter" to test the soil and i have a fixture i made out of 6 normal sockets (3 on each side) and a 150HPS bulb in the center, reg sockets hold CFLs all daylight. all is suspended and fully adjustable ( im so proud of it since i made it lol) i hate my hydro tank im ripping it out, too complicated. in the wall a 3 inch hole is cut and an XBOX fan over it for cool intake. temps at 75 - 85 hum at 33 last checked. Timers are in good use. i know roots like to dry out for a good bit and i wanted to know if you can provide a good watering regimine? the meter says when its dry and not but how dry is cool? also how do you flush in potting soil WITHOUT drowning / rotting the roots at harvest? and expert advise or improvements on this setup will be greatly apreciated and ive never tried ANY trees this strong so if yall got any advise hit me back ill be posting pics soon as attitude gets my shirt here... but i need advise by time they get here :-/ HELP should be here by fri or sat p.s. first time poster long time reader of this site. ~Alpha
...as far as flushing your soil base plants you usually do it in parts with a 40-45 minute soil rest between each session.
sounds like a plan! got everything mixed in exept the perlite i'm buying tomorrow, still gotta buy some more 6500k cfl's but it's cool got the money set aside, just wish attitude would hurry up, or whoever delivers the shirt option lol, been 7 days today. i drilled like 300 pin holes in this rubbermade for max drainage, 18 gallon capacity. hurry up attitude!! any nute suggestions?
