Aloha all,
I am a new grower just setting up my 1st personal medicine grow and I have a few questions before I actually get to the growing. I plan on using two 4ft x 4ft x 6.9ft tents. One tent will have two feminized photo period critical kush plants from Barney's Farm, the other tent will have two candy kush auto flowers from Auto Seed. I have both tents tied into a y(wye?) with an 8" exhaust fan. Both tents have a carbon filter and some duct work so I don't believe there will be any light bleeding from one tent to the other tent. My issue is lighting I have a few different fixtures and was hoping you brilliant people could illuminate me: I have a 600 watt 11 band LED light from Mars Hydro, a 280 watt G8 LED light which needs a light supplement for blooming, I also have four 55 to 65 watt power compact florescent and 4 each of 3000k bulbs and 6700K bulbs, and finally I have four 2ft T5 fixtures loaded with 24 watt 12% uvb bulbs from Arcadia.
I am going to use submersible water pumps to supply the drip rings with nutrient enhanced R/O water and using a "T" valve to drain the nutrients when changing my water on a weekly basis. I also will use air stones driven by a piston pump to ensure ample oxygen is available for the roots. So how do you suggest I setup my lighting? two uvb in each tent, the mars hydro in one tent with the photo period sensitive plants and the G8 with the 6700K in the power compacts for the auto flower plants?
Also, I am using Advance Nutrients PH balanced grow, PH balanced flower and PH balanced micros. What feeding schedule should I implement for the grow from seed to harvest?
Mahalo in advance for your mana'o.
