    6'x7' New Room

    With a light hanging at 4-1/2 ft, should I grow an indica or sativa strain?
    I'm seeing the strain "lowrider" mentioned quite often on this forum for small setups, but can't find a pic to check it out. Anyone got a pic of this strain?

    How difficult is it to maintain a DWC setup?

    Well for something like that you should consider how you time the grow cycle. You will need a vegetation room a flower room and a cloning area.

    Timetable to use for all the strains you can grow like this, some are shorter but this is the max (with in a few dayâ??s either way)

    Flower â?? 45 â?? 60 dayâ??s total
    Clones â?? 21 dayâ??s
    Vegetation â?? 30 â?? 45 dayâ??s

    You take clones a day or so before you move from Vegetation to flower.
    Use an aero-clone that can hold up to plenty of clones. Most of the time you can sell or trade the ones you donâ??t use.
    The best 16 clones make it into the vegetation room. Of those 16 the best 12 make it into the flower room (again trade or sell the others you donâ??t use)

    Everything is done in KBS style of growing with 10,000-btu AC unit each room, co2 each room; A CAP controller to watch everything, top & bottom lighting (well mid lighting anyway) in the flower room, top air-cooled MH in the vegetation room and a fogger for the flower room to keep the RH high.

    Room sizeâ?¦.Flower 7x7x7 Mylar on all walls, ceiling and the door. White plastic wallboard on the floor to keep everything clean. The Vegetation room is 6x7x7 with Mylar and wallboard on the floor. You can clone in a closet lined with Mylar. Use duel flourex lights under one batwing will provide plenty of light and keep temperatures down so the leafs donâ??t dry out before they get a chance to root.

    It takeâ??s about one year and ½ to get everything up and balanced out and get a good cycle going. You could even have time for a good cleaning after each cycle too.

    The 12 finished flowering plants each will produce 1.5 pounds, sometime more (Kush is great grown like this) so every 66 dayâ??s there is a crop around 18 pounds to enjoy.

    All it takes in money, time and lots of work for a grow like thisâ?¦.but it does work.

    Yup, what he said DWC is incredibly easy. All you have to have is a few 5 gal buckets some air stones, aquarium compressor, and tubing, a little hydroton and some net pots. and of course nutes and plants.
    the only thing you might want to consider is hauling H20 up to the attic, you'll be surprised at how fast the plants suck up the water.
    Good luck,

    There are some old farmers out here who started growing MJ when they couldn't make the farm work with conventional crops. For stealth they would bend the plant completely over and stake chicken wire over it (a modified version of scrog) the plant would esentially grow horizontally along the ground I haven't tried it but it seemed to be pretty successful. If height is limited you might try something like this.

    How many plants do want to grow?

    Peace

    Thx nosehit.... I like the redneck version of scrogging. I have a redneck buddy that will probably find that useful and sort of relieving.
