Alright everyone. I've been around on the forums for a while, giving advice when i can, and soaking up as much knowledge as possible. Finally got most of what i need to start a (hopefully) perpetual grow.
Just gonna list what i do have for now, sorry if it gets a little long.
CLONE/VEG AREA:
-small cabinet completely lined with reflective insulation, able to take 4 CFLs
-4-site DIY bubble cloner that will also be used to grow girls up till they go into flower area
-currently running 2- 23W 5k CFLs
-head room in cabinet will allow me to get to ~1' before moving them to flower
-will eventually add a fan to supply fresh air and exhaust heat
FLOWERING AREA:
-old wardrobe from my garage mostly covered in reflective insulation (working on finishing)
-4-site ebb/flow table with ~3 gallon reservoir
-equipped to handle 12 CFLs
-250cfm inline duct fan for exhaust at top of cab
-passive intake at bottom of cab
-2 fans inside for circulation
as for the strain i'm working with, i'm unsure. clone from a friend grown from really good bag seed. i grew one plant to finish of this strain, and it turned out really nice. very smooth smoke, fruity taste. the friend who gave me the clone said it could be blueberry, as some of the bags he got the seeds from smelled like blueberry and (he said) my final product resembled that. so, possible blueberry genetics.
now as for nutrients, i have nothing that is hydroponic approved. finished out the one plant with diluted soil nutes (i know, big no-no). but i will be ordering some GH nutes in the future.
THE PLAN: i'm going to take a clone, grow it up in veg area, then place it in the flowering area. two weeks later, same thing. then again, then again. when i put the 4th clone into the flowering area, the first comes out. make sense? i titled this StrOG because it won't be a full-on SOG, more of a Stream Of Green. :jointsmile: harvest weight of the plant i finished was just under 20g dried. so, every two weeks i'll harvest about 1/2oz (thinking on the low end).
I'm just starting the whole cloning process, so within 2-3 weeks, the 1st clone should go in. that should give me time to get my nutes and stuff. then the fun begins.
before i sign off, i have to thank all of you who've shared your ideas and experiences with us here on canncom. and i thank you in advance for your input, suggestions, and constructive criticism. sorry for the long post, just wanna be thorough.GoldenGraham84 Reviewed by GoldenGraham84 on .
