    Hello everyone! First time signing up for the forums. Always lurked, but I figured I might as well create an account now :D

    So basically I have some expirience in the field nothing too drastic 4x4 9 girls. Basic knowledge and all that. I'm looking for some knowledgeable advice on how to go about setting a new space up.

    My plan:
    Two 10x5 tents
    One more for mothers.
    Veg tent x2 mh lamps 800watts total
    Flower tent x2 1000 watts and x1 600 in the center 2600 total

    I will be growing indica Dom plants. Pretty much decided on fucking incredible from Vancouver.

    I want to have a 2 month cycle of between 15-20 plants at a time. So 20 in veg for two months and 20 in flower. I plan on using 5gal pots all organic etc. In the glorious state in Washington I am allowed up to 45 ladies.

    Few questions here:

    1. With a two month veg cycle how many do you think will fit in a 10x5 with LST and also having some wiggle room to work with. I plan on just tying branches down just for more light exposure to smaller nodes.

    2. Will the 5gal pots be sufficient enough for the time in veg+flower

    3. What would you recommend for lighting power

    4. With a 45 cap how would you personally go about setting up for maximum yield. SoG, Scrog, topping, lollipopping, etc?

    I'm sure I'll think of more questions later down the road regarding sufficient co2 and all that jazz that goes along with upgrading.

    Any recommendations and/or constructive criticism is appreciated!
     
  2. 1) The most plants that I could/would fit in there would probably be 8. 4 plants per 5'x5' square and 40 day veg.

    2) Use the biggest pots that you can afford to fill and will work for your space. 5 gallon pots full of high quality soil will work for veg and flower. 10's or 15's will work better.

    3) 2kw in a 5'x10' would be plenty for flower imo

  3. In your thread title, you said you started a new co-op or coop as in chicken coop? A co-op is a dispensary. Unless you mean that you are growing for a dispensary.
     
  4. Oops you are correct. Meant a new collective garden. Not a new dispensary. Fixed headline. Thank.you
     
  5. Thanks for the response. With the 40day veg are you including from clone rooting, or after clone transplant into the veg tent?
     
  6. Also getting a larger tent for flower is not out of the question if need be.
     
  7.  
    I have a collective garden in Wa.
     
    #1 if the plants are happy it will be full in 2 months, a bit crowed but doable
     
    #2 yes but you can go bigger.
     
    #3 all 1,000 watt MH/hps
     
    #4 Hydro , Sea of green or both.
     
    BTW fuck the plant numbers, keep them under 99 plants.... Even then..... :D
     
  8. I would count it from the day you TP a rooted clone into a veg pot.

    I'm gonna be doing all organic in soil. Just personal preference. Are two 1000watts necessary just for veg?

    Haha I've thought about that 99 rule, but I want to keep it legitimate if it goes sour for some reason.
     
  10.  
    For starting little ones and clones a single 1,000w will rock. Little plants will not stay small under one for very long. :)
     
    Flowering under 2,000w makes for a nice harvest. A little bud porn...
     
    Buy the way you can grow hydro organic, the only difference is bigger plants and bigger harvest.

  11. Those definitely do look nice. Only problem is I have zero expirience with hydro. Wouldn't even know where to start to be honest haha.
     
  12. Just do a SIP and you will keep up with hydro. Grow in smarties, set them in a 4x4 tray or similar. Fill the tray 2-3" deep with perlite. Put the smarties on top of the perlite. Keep the perlite wet which will wick water up through the bottom of your smarties and keep your soil moist while keeping those microbes happy and working at peak efficiency. Explosive growth. For anyone who knows what they are doing hydro will not outperform organics.

    Sent from my Galaxy Note II. I know you bitchez be jealous.
     
  13. What exactly is the whole 99 plants thing? I cant find any info on it. What are the penalties of 99 plants compared to 100 plants? What is the deal with this 99 thing i dont get it...
