Hooked on small perpetual auto grow!

[DeeDoubleYou]

Mannnnnnn, I LOVE the ease of keeping a little 2x4 stuffed with different autos running perpetual. I’m so stoked that I can keep a tasty variety headstash at all times by running like this. Only change I’m going to make is switching the build a soil living variety to compliment the organic nutrients. I’ve got a decent catalog of photo beans built up now and a 4x4 and HLG r spec on the way, but I don’t think I will ever stop running this auto tent!

I have some questions, if you don’t mind.

How are you spacing them out time-wise? Are you purposely looking for strains that have roughly the same finish time?

And how are you handling humidity? Higher for seedlings and lower for flower won’t work there, what’s your happy medium?

Looks great and gives me ideas (not always a good thing for my wife. LOL)

Very nice! I use a 18" x 30" and a 4x2. I do two seeds every two weeks in one gallon pots.

I’m not even putting that much planning into it. I have a 2x2 that I dry in, I also use it to start seedlings every couple weeks that way I can keep it in the upper 60%RH without changing my big tent. If one takes longer than the others oh well.

Love running perpetual in the 4x4 with my Rspec!

Love running perpetual in the 4x4 with my Rspec!

Don’t give me any ideas or I’ll end up there too haha. I can’t spend anymore $$$ on grow equipment for a while and the R spec dented my wallet

What are your lights? How much power are you using?

If i may I run a 50x100cm space, not sure what that is in freedom units 1 every 3 weeks or 21 days whichever is soonest no cares of how long an auto takes,they much of a muchness i find + or - 1 week. I can have 3 sometimes 4 plants in my space.
It can and will work.
In an ideal world seedlings like a higher humidity than flowering. But if we was in an ideal world there be no wars or 2 faced folk, and weed would grow on trees
Whats the ambient humidity? Do you live in a desert or a rainforrest? maybe somewhere inbetween like most of us. With no aircon my growing space bounces between 40% to 65% every day maybe twice a day. I also do not use domes or mist ever.
There is a perfect way to grow weed at ever stage of its life im sure, but 99% of weed will be perfectly happy 99% of the time if it's somewhere in the middle of temp/humidity and every other range of figures Sometimes it can even grow all by itself imagine that

@DeeDoubleYou I fully concur with your conclusions, I have also ditch my hydro for one litre pots with a concomitant rise is variety. With the small pots you can get very hands on, and there's always room to squeeze someone in somewhere.

What are your lights? How much power are you using?

One ‘22 Mars Hydro TS1000 150W and two ‘22 Spider Farmer SF1000 100W. Adds up to a total of 350W and I keep them on 100% using a 18/6 schedule. I just use my lux meter to match plant heights unless it’s a huge stack, then I would put the smallest plant on the end and drop the light and or intensity using the meter as my guide. For a 2x4 I really can’t complain so far. There’s going to be a limit on how fat I can get the buds in here but I’m sure I can dial in a few more things to increase yields over the next couple plants. Switching to organic nutrients has been a huge breakthrough for me already. If I could start over I would have gotten an HLG LED board instead but I only paid for the SF1000’s, the MH was a free promo score.
