Alright, I just invested some money in some new equipment, but before I begin going through the spec's, I just wanted to give a brief history of my experience.

I've been lurking around here for about a year and a half. My first grow was with a local strain, called Purple Sticky Punch, for which I was given three seeds. The genetics are unknown to me, I know it was cross-bred with skunk, but other than that I'm not sure. I had decent results--I was growing out of a rented house, with two plants that got to be about 14'' tall using 3 fluorescent tubes angled aroud the tops of the plants. (Not near enough lumenage, I know. Plus I didn't even switch bulbs when I began flowering. I think the bulbs were 40W apiece or something, and I had six of them. lolol)

Anyways, my results were decent, and I was pleased to say that my first grow yielded some of the best Marley I'd ever choked on. Since then, I've gotten more and more interested in starting an "Ops," and have invested a small amount of money in some decent equipment to start a small closet. MY specs are as follows:

-Lumatek 400w E-ballast
-Hydrofarm Daystar AC reflector
-Bubbleponics system w/ rockwool and hydroton (I know I'll be insulted for ACTUALLY investing money in a "plug-n'-play system, but hey, its my first real grow, and I didn't want to have a large margin for error on this one. Only problem is it has only 6 holes in the top. My methods of growing will come into question later in this post.)
-400W MH bulb (Lowe's special)
-400W HPS "Hortilux Eye"
-GH Flora and Micro nutes

Plus, I've mounted a 4'' inline fan on the side of my daystar. I have a 4'' to 5'' converter to hook it in, but I'll probably invest in a different inline, as this one is pretty weak, and I need all the space I can get vertically to jam it all in this closet.

Now, for my dimensions. I have nearly 6 ft. vertically, and about 3 feet both ways horizontally. My lights are on a pulley system, so I'm not terribly worried about exposure. I have, however, been reading up on ScrOG, and was wondering, would this be the best method to use for my personal dimensions and setup? I'll give my strains information.

-5x La Diva Auto Feminized
-5x AK-48 Fem
-1x 3D Fem. (freebie)
-1x Sweet Deep Grapefruit Fem. (freebie)
-3x Jack the Ripper (freebie)
-3x Cloud #9 (freebie)

I've read about some good experiences with ScrOG auto's, but I'm not sure if I would be brave enough to mix auto and regulars. Any thoughts?

I'll be beginning my grow log after some feedback, and after I move here in a week or so out of state. Until then, any criticism is greatly appreciated.

Happy 4.20! :rastasmoke::rastasmoke::rastasmoke:
