Hello mates, I'm using 2 "High Output" T5 lights on these girls. They are clones I got from a dispensary. I will be adding a few more plants, possibly up to 12-18, 1000 watt HPS (eventually 2 or 3), and then sometime soon will be getting a tent. But right now that is my set up and this is my first indoor grow, kind of. I have grown a few plants outside but all have gotten destroyed by storm, dehydration......sad stuff Regardless, I am setting myself up for success this time and would love hear advice, criticism, tips, queries, whatever. Thanks UPDATE: purchased a tent. purchased more clones purchased 2 T5's heres some more pictures
looking good so far man, what are you feeding them? are you using nutes or natural? and how many watts do one of those t5 ballasts put out? My only suggestion for you is, try a simple hydro setup. You will notice a large improvement in yield 2x, sometimes 3x more but other than that, excellent start. and if your a grow newbie im sure you'll want to experiment with hydro soon enough anyways
Thanks man, I'm using some Ionic brand nutes. Ill be switching to fox farm nutes, and some type of advanced nutrients. I will try organic at some point. Right now me and some buddies are dumping a lot of money into our current setup, but hydro has always had my attention and will try it once i get a few soil grows under my belt. (need to practice my PH balance and other things first ) Heres some more pictures!
I transplanted many plants today. Strains are as listed: blueberry, MK Ultra, Buddahs Sister, Jilly Bean, Green Giant, Tropica, Maui, Purple Erckle, Angel Heart, 2x Jah Kush.
Hey man great strains, but it seems to me its gonna get mighty crouded, you need more lights for sure. happy growing
I will be getting chain links as soon as i can to lower them, hoping for tomorrow. How close are you thinking? 10-15 inches away?
I have 12 of them and eventually all will be in 7 gal smart pots (some are already in them) Its a decent size tent, so it might be ok. On the lights, Ill be getting 2 HPS 1000 watt lights for flowering that should be good for 12 girls you think?
help on light schedule please! Should i keep these girls on a constant 24 hr, or for less stress on them do 20/4 or 18/6? Any help/advice is welcome.
UPDATE! got my ventilation on lock, ducting, w/ a 6 inch inline fan. Lowered the lights Got a 70 gal reservoir w/ 2 air stones and an air pump
Looks pretty good bro. Based on your last pictures it looks like you've got some stretching starting. Unless your doing that on purpose i'd suggest lowering your lights a little Peace n' Pot
