Hello all!
Newbie to the site, just about have my first auto grow under my belt. I just popped 3 more today and figured I'd start a journal to track my success (or failure). Here's the stats:
Strain: Buddha seeds mix, unknown variety.
Environment: 4x5x8 closet, insulated floor and mylar lined walls. 600w hps light hanging vertically with diy cool tube ventilation connected to a 4" in line exhausted into the attic 18 on 6 off. Temps with lights off in the high 60's, when on room stays about 75.
Pots/Medium: 3 gallon equivalent smart pots with a bottom watering tray added. Essentially a modified hempy bucket. Perlite/vermiculite 75/25.
Nutrients:
Seedlings: tap water with rooting enhancers for the first 2 weeks
Veg: Jacks classic feed 20-20-20 with continued use of rooting agents. I'll start really light 150ppm to start and go up accordingly. Supplements of Cal-Mag and molasses prior to switching to flowering nutes)
Flowering (or whatever the auto equivalent is) : more Jacks classic but the blossom booster, 10-30-20.
*all water used is plain tap water, all feeds ph'd to 5.8 after addition of nutrients*
No pictures yet, as soon as as they break ground I will post pictures at least once weekly until harvest. Thanks for stopping by!
