Well I had to rearrange and clean my entire basement (and grow rig) due to an in-progress renovation. The good news is I have a dedicated 20 amp service to the grow-box and a kill switch now! I was going to wait until the end of summer to start this grow for fear of high temps. But after seeing slightlystoopid's grow I can't wait any longer, plus the supply is getting low.
So I've been doing a full power test run all day and both type of lights are holding at 86-87f with 62% humidity, and its hot and sticky today. So I'm going to go ahead and green light this grow!
My biggest concern is my cabinet's small size. I can fit 3 plants in 2 gallon pots, and have 24 inches for plant height, by the looks of slightly's plants I will have to LST.
Okay so for the sake of science my grow stats are:
3 White Sirus (Trippy) test beans: Courtesy of Stitch
OF amended with lots of perlite and a splash of lime (2 small palm fulls for 6 gallons)
2 gallon pots
1 litre soda bottles until sexed
Fox Farm Trio for nutes
180 watts of blue cfls for veg can add more if I want
450 watts of hps for flower (I love that cool tube!)
18/6 light regime
Germing in damp paper towels and tupperware
I think that covers it so I'll update when there's some sprouts!
Cheers all.
