Soil bed idea.
"These 4 tubes in each bed help the roots to have a constant air- flow, and the hydrocorals underneath make it almost impossible to over-water your garden."
Quote from Soma magazine.
I think the principal works that soil can be wet as long as it's allowed to breathe is what makes this work. I'm definitely going to be using alot of Perlite in this one.
I'm thinking I'm going to use
50% Fox Farm Ocean Potting soil - contains all vegging nutes I'd need.
25% Fox Farm Light warrior (I usually top my soil with this because it gets good airation, but I might put it on the bottom layer as well seeing as the whole organic soil bed thing works)
25% Perlite/Vermiculite
With extra Guano from www.Guanokelong.com just the way Soma does it.
Standard hydrocoals/pebbles.
I think I'm going to use the following lights on the 20 clones (After I harvest 20 clones, doing 4-5 clones a week from the mothers I have):
For Vegetation.
I'd be doing continual harvest, so different batches of clones go into flowering at different times. First 5-10 clones go through vegging for a bit (not sure how long I should veg them for... 2-3 weeks or something for SoG?) Then next 5-10 clones, etc until I have a full bed.
I have a small Vegging Chamber where I keep mothers and clones vegging.
I use two 105 (daylight spectrum) watt CFLs in a 1.5X2X4 cabinet.
Flowering.
430 watt High pressure sodium, give guano tea after 3rd week of flowering, flush in the last week or two. If I feel that my light's a little weak I'm going to add some compapct fluorescents.
Nuties-
Fox Farm Big Bloom
Guano Tea
Super Thrive
