Simple,Low cost,grow setup...
K guys an grils ,,,,,this is what i do,as in frist two pics,i place all my plants in 3.5 liter planters,then in 5gal buckets,with 1gal jug for ferts.now growers i'm sure someone may [disagree with me].,,,now that the plants are growing good do this,i mix 1x4 tsp ferts in gal jug,pour all of it in so it will drain,now watch your plants so they don't get to dark green,,,,i do this every time i water,now when you see that they are getting to green take 2 gallons of just water,flush,but never water,or fert,plants until surface is dry,this keeps down green algae,on surface.i use pro mix BX to grow my plants in.also by letting the top dry you have less problems.now i never check ph in my plants,don't have to, i use rain water ,i have a few 30 gal trash cans to collect it in.if dry spell i go to lake, river,creek,haul till i fill my cans.now each plant has its own watering table,all plants are differant when it comes to this.also i have found out that by letting my water run through the soil like this,i have few problems,,it gets rid of salts build up.if you dont let the soil dry out some you WILL have problems.a good way to learn is to take 2 or 3 planters,fill with pro mix bx after pre moisting the soil,not wet....leave one that way ,take an pour QT water in 2nd an in 3rd poor water til runs out planter,check weight of each an compare...this an seeing the top of soil helps to tell if it needs water,once you can tell if needs water good,,,...i have not lost 1 plant to problems,,never really had any with this water tech:in growroom can increase amount of ferts if needed,1x4 tsp to start with is all you need ,1x2 way through flower i seem to have to add a little extra,1x4 tsp then 1x2 that much,,...mostly i mist the lower leaves with 1 full tsp in gallon jug. i only mist buds with water to make them think its raining...well i will answer questions,,Live Free....Growalot...some pics to show you...also i will come back in a while to show how to keep plants open to light,never need to cut any fan leaves,you lose some growth in my opinion,also the plants are Blueberry x Jack Herr an soft skunk.here an up at the others,,,...
