.... Welcome homies!
Time for a new thread, with both outdoor and indoor action,.... My outdoor season was looking to be canceled, but another late opportunity opened up, so I have a spot to grow at a different friends place! Prior to this, I got my first legit tent in May, along with a new chance to run auto's after a long miserable no-grow break... ... The tent is actually outside, in a small courtyard under the eaves.... it's a Growneer 4 x 2, looks to be fairly good quality.... Lights are AutoCOB's and a DIY 2 COB unit a friend converted for me made from a dead eShine unit (Platinum knock-off)... AutoCOB's are 3500K and 4000K switched as needed, and the other is all 3500K....
... under the bottom liner, I slipped a styro' foil panel for insulation... ....
... And a wee heater unit to keep things warmer at night/lights out, since it's in the 50's typically.... ...nice unit, with the critical thermostat and low setting! It even moves back and forth if needed-
>>> Other must-have equipment includes a TDS meter, pH, and the trusty Accurate 8 soil pH probe! I recently did a comparison test with it against a slurry test... Basically results showed all were within 0.2 of each other- ... Bottom line point here: monitoring and prevention are way-T-F better than monkey-humping with in-pot corrections! ...
>>> Nutes and supplements... always a mixed bag there! This time, I'm running mainly Greenleaf Nutrients Megacrop, with a couple bloom boosters when appropriate: Open Sesame (FoxFarms) and GLN's Bud Explosion... the former is higher P/mid' K for early to mid-late bloom, the latter is mid' P/high K for finishing,... I was given a sample of Atami Bloomtastic (0-14-15) plus other goodies, so that will get slipped on occasion since the others are very high PK#'s!
Rather than list, here's pics of what's in the "kitchen", used as deemed wise,...
>>> more coming later on soils, strains, pics, comments about things that have happened,...:smoking:
