So I'm about to begin my first grow. Just put the seeds in water to soak for 24 hours at 7pm. Wooo!!!!

My room setup:
1 Homebox XXL
2 Sunlight Supply Super Sun 2
2 Lumatek 1000w digital 120v ballast
2 Hortilux Blue 1000w MH for vegetation
2 Hortilux Super HPS 1000w for flowering
1 Vortex 6" 449 CFM inline fan
1 run of the mill oscillating fan to keep circulation well
12 Site Multi Flow Complete Hydroponic Ebb & Flow Garden System with 50 gallon reservoir
1 75 gallon air pump for my reservoir
2 23" bubble wands for my reservoir
1 CAP Ozn Jr Ozone generation

I plan on using WeedHound's nutrient schedule for my first time.

My first grow I'm germinating 7 Sagamartha Blue Thunder (Matanuska Tundra x Blueberry). Males I think I'm gonna put plastic bags over and shake off pollen after flowering and store so in the future I can make my own seeds and then dump them. From the females I will pick the best and move to a smaller homebox which will become the mother/clone room. Really excited!!!

I'll update tomorrow when I put my seeds in damp paper towel and paper plates!

and of course my first question: Should I purchase a CO2 booster bucket with pump? Or is it feasible to use fresh yeast or dry yeast and sugar (I have unlimited access to fresh and dry yeast and sugar in my profession) to produce CO2?

If I add CO2, at what stage should I?


Thanks everyone!
