My first grow back now in 2021. I previously grew from 2012-2017. I live in Virginia so this was not necessarily Legal.
I decided to start growing again starting in 2021. To my surprise, only months after I started growing again, Virginia 'legalized' growing.
I decided to go with (3) 2'x4' Mars Hydro Tents.
(2) Mars Hydro SP3000 in the (2) "flower" tents, and (1) Mars Hydro TSL2000 in the third 2x4 tent.
For this grow I'm trying my hand at Coco. Utilizing General Hydroponics 3 Part Flora nutes and some additional nutrients.
I previously grew largely hydroponic using rockwool from start to finish, and a recirculating drip system and reservoir each plumbed to top off with R/O water on float valves. This was surprisingly a great setup and the TDS never got to high being a ricirculating system. The R/0 would top off used up water and I had very stable TDS.
I used Advanced Nutrients PH Perfect 3 Part nutes. This kept the PH levels very stable also in this system.
My favorite strains I've grown to date are both by Humboldt Seed Organization; Blue Dream and Lemon Kush Headband.
Both were incredibly powerful and the smelliest strains I've ever smelled. BD smelled as if you snorted ground Fruit Loops.
LKH was as strong as Lemonheads candy after chewing them up.
The BD was bordering on Psychedelic effects, very uplifting, creativity inducing.
