Hey folks. In 3 days my current Think Different plant comes down and immediately after a week of drying, my new grow fully starts! I'll be germinating my seeds in about 5 days, just thought I'd post this here for people to subscribe if they want to see how Dutch Passion's new unreleased strain grows in soil!

The ladies and gents over at DP offered me the opportunity to do this test grow for them. Right now, not a lot is known about it but from what I do know, it's going to be a killer! It's an autoflowering feminized variety with a 12 week start->harvest time.

I've decided to grow two big plants under the ScrOG to see how it goes! I'll also be using CO2 enrichment.

As always, here are the details.

Strain: Unreleased 'AutoX' by Dutch Passion
Pot: 2x 15 litre plastic
Medium: Soil (Biobizz light mix)
Environment: Secret Jardin Dark Room pro DR60 II, 24"x24"x64"
Lighting system: 250W HPS, dual spectrum bulb with cool tube reflector, 2x 50W LED UFO lights (3W per LED)
Carbon filter: Rhino pro carbon filter
Extraction fan: 100mm RVK fan
Intake: Passive
Nutrients: Biobizz grow, Biobizz flower, Biobizz Topmax, Formulex, Biobizz Root juice, CalMag supplement, Liquid silicone (for increased uptake of CO2), Dr Hornby's Big Bud (Advanced Nutrients), Advanced Nutrients Overdrive
Temperature: Aiming to keep a consistent 75°F - 80°F during lights on, 65°F - 70°F lights off
pH: Aiming to keep a consistent 6.5 in the soil
 
billy im no expert but i think you may have gone overboard with your co2 last time, the only video i can think of is the green man on you tube he uses co2 maybe check him out.i did watch others but cant remenber(must have been high)good green kharma sent your way :peace: sj
 
Yeah I haven't been able to afford a decent CO2 PPM meter until now, I'll be getting one in a few weeks :) I put the CO2 on a timer so it only enriches for 5 minutes every 15 minutes, whereas it used to be on all the time on the automatic built in regulator timer. It enriched the room too frequently so I changed it and increased the extraction fan power :)
 
The way I understand co2 to work (and I'm no expert on it) your temps have to be higher than usual to have any effect. I may be wrong, anyone with more experience chime in?

Either way I'm excited to see this grow take off! :pop:
 
Hmm I'm not sure about that bud, I've read around and CO2 allows for higher temperatures but doesn't necessitate them :) I'll take another look though to be sure.
 
Good luck with the grow dude and if your Auto'X' goes anything like mine your gonna need a bigger tent lol
