Soil bed idea.
After reading a thread on organic soil beds (and reading Organic Marijuana Soma Style) I've decided to grow organic with a soil bed. "They are made out of wood lined with black waterproof plastic.
The bottom 5 centimeters is made up of hydrocorals, little round clay pebbles, covered by a piece of plastic coated chicken wire. On top of the chicken wire I place, some felt root cloth, then 25 centimeters of organic soil mixed with perlite. In each corner of the bed I have a 70 MM PVC pipe 35 centimeters high, going through the soil, the felt root cloth, the chicken wire, and the hydrocorals, giving an air layer to the bottom of the beds."
I plan on using a charcoal filter for out take fan (connected to a small out take vornado fan) and a squirrel cage fan for intake. I'm going to suppliment multiple warm CFLs (42 watt) and a central 400 watt High Pressure Sodium.
I plan on growing Greenhouse White Widow seeds that I've already acquired.
This is not my first grow, this will be my first soil bed grow though. Any experience or suggestions before I start assembling everything?Buddahbear Reviewed by Buddahbear on . Soil bed idea.
