This is my first serious grow. Sure I've tossed seeds outside in my real garden and hoped for the best. Yeah, it didn't happen. Reasons - to much misinformation from "experts" and our unpredictable weather up here in the mountains. So i decided if I'm going to grow, I'm going to grow correctly. So that lead me to here.
I'm a little behind getting this posted - started germinating my seeds February 9th.
Here's what I'm using:
8' x 8' x 7' grow tent
Running three 2' x 4' ebb and flow tables
Medium: coco coir inside 30 gallon square smart bags (had to fold down tops to be level with top of table)
Lights are cool tubes- all connected and running exhaust fan thru them to reduce room temp.
Bulbs : 600w mh switching to 600w hps soon (one light over each table)
Light schedule: 20 on 4 off
20" oscillating fan running 24/7
Reservoir has 50 gallon capacity but only filling to 30 gallons to avoid splashing on lid and hopefully unwanted algae.
Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients G-B-M system with additives voodoo juice, B-52, Big Bud and Overdrive.
pH on aged tap water is 8.0 having to use pH down to correct. I try to keep pH between 6.1 and 6.4
currently flooding every other day, switching to daily as the girls are getting big
full Reservoir change weekly
Room temp on average is 80°-84°
Humidity average is 54-60% (i live in very dry area so this is as good as it gets lol ) i am running a warm mist humidifier 24/7
ScrOG on each table. We made them ourselves using hemp twine with 2.5 inch square openings
Table 1 is two blue amnesia, table 2 is one moby dick (sadly we lost her sister in germination, seed opened but didn't go beyond that) table 3 is two blue cheese. All auto of course.
As my garden is aging, we will be adding in a carbon filter 12" x 24" and 8 inch inline h.o. fan. The ladies are smelling up my house.
Okay, i think that covers everything. Sorry if that's too much information lol i will be transferring my paper journal on here so you can follow my progress, and mishaps, thus far. As of today, haven't messed up so bad that it couldn't be fixed. All plants doing great -i think ...
