Hydroponic Heretic
I am GreenJeans, and this is where I will be posting my grows from now on. I have been absent from AFN for several months. Now, hiding behind a better VPN, I plan to log a fresh grow in a few weeks. (when my current grow finishes up)
I am currently using 2 300 watt Mars Hydro old style panels with 5w LEDs, and using CFLs in flower for a little extra punch.
I grow in Deep Water Culture, and am using General Hydroponics Flora Duo series base nutes, Along with their Floralicious Plus, Rapid Start, Liquid KoolBloom, and Flora Nectar additives. I am also using Cal Mag from Earth Juice, and I use Dutch Masters Gold range Zone to maintain a sterile reservoir.
Currently growing in a 3.5 gallon bucket with two fish tank style air pumps hooked to a Spyder air distribution setup.
My cabinet is a DIY that I have put a ton of thought into. It has three separate chambers. One at the top for extracting heat and keeping the hottest air separate from the grow chamber, one at the bottom to keep the res shaded and cool, and the grow chamber itself. It intakes at the bottom from a closet in the house so I get conditioned air, and am able to keep the coolest air in the lower chamber, and exhausts from the top chamber via a Ventech 4" fan w/speed controller and a Phat filter (changing over to Phresh in a few days).
Here are some pictures of my cab for anyone interested.
