This is my first grow. I will be growing Pineapple Chunk by Barney's Farm from seed. I plan to copy LBH's famous ScrOG Tutorial. 13/10/18 - Planted 5 seeds in Root It propagation sponges. The sponges were planted straight into 1L air pots into a 50/50 coco/perlite mix which was watered with 0.5 EC, pH 5.9 water. Professor's Nutrients has a starter soak with an EC of 0.5. Instead of buying the started soak I mixed up a solution of other Professor's Nutrients products to the same EC. I have read different opinions on whether or not to provide any nutrients in the first couple of weeks. I decided to give them a weak nutrient solution, tune in to find out how it goes. 17/10/18 - Day 1 - All seeds have sprouted. One of the seeds (plant 3) is lagging behind the other 4. See day 1 photos above. 19/10/18 - Day 3 - 4 out of 5 seedlings have their first set of true leaves. Plant 3 is still lagging behind. My setup consists of the following: Grow Room The grow room is a total of 2.1m (7 ft) x 1.5m (5 ft). The grow space measures 1.2m (4 ft) x 1.5m (5 ft). The room has been painted matte white. Lighting 4 lighting fixtures, each with 2 x QB288 v2 3000K quantum boards. Each lighting fixture is capable of producing 275 watts. I am currently running 2 of the lighting fixtures at 125 watts each. I will monitor how the seedlings are reacting to the light and adjust the distance between the light and the canopy accordingly. Ventilation I am running a 150mm (6") Can Fan Iso-Max silenced fan with a carbon filter. Water Tank I have a 200L water tank. I mixed up 50L of solution to start with. I have an aquarium pump set up inside the tank. The pump is plumbed up with 19mm irrigation hose and controlled with a digital timer. I am running the pump for 3 mintues per feeding using 2 x 8L/hr drippers per small air pot. I will use hydro halos for the larger pots. Waste Water A platform has been installed approximately 250mm (10") off the floor to allow the installation of waste water tanks. All pots are sitting on Rhisostands which have been plumbed into 2 x 80L low profile plastic storage containers. I plumbed some irrigation hose with a tap and a 12mm snap on hose fitting into the tanks so they can be manually drained when required. Pots I will be using 1L (0.3 gallon) air pots for the first 2 weeks before transplanting into 9.2L (2.4 gallon) air pots. I am growing 5 seeds. At 2 weeks old I will choose the 4 best seedlings to transplant into the larger pots. Grow Medium/Method I will be using 50/50 coco/perlitefor the 1L pots and 70/30 coco/perlite for the 9.2L pots. I will be watering until 20% of the water drains to waste.

Boss, no other way to say it. Boss, you are a BOSS! I’ve never read about a setup that was so well documented as yours. If you are this fierce out the gate, I fear for the rest of us. Bravo.

good luck with the grow buddy, I expect the chunks will love the SCrog method! I LSTd my one and she stretched like crazy so watch that

hey man, def tagging along for this. gotta say someone else said this was the best first grow theyve seen id have to agree. i love your setup. personally im using the 135W HLG QB288 V2 paired with a King Plus 1000w, and the king just pales in compassion, eventually id like to add some more qbs, im running a 3000k but would like a few 4000k for veg alone. keep it up man impressive stuff!!

@FoxyLoxy, Thanks man. I go away for work for 2 or 3 days at a time and am always surprised by how well they are doing when I get home. I don't have anything to compare the QB's to but I'm pretty happy so far. They're super efficient lights and easily adjustable. I knew I wanted to do a SCrOG so it made sense to go with the QB's and spread them out so that the light is evenly distributed.

@MadMama, Thanks. I did a lot of research and had it all planned out before even starting. I won't be able to blame the setup if everything turns to shit!

Hi! I always love DIY light setup :) I was thinking about the samsung LT-Q series, but I went for bridgelux cobs (with reflectors) for heat managment. I put the heatsink part and the power supply on the outside part of the roof of the grow room. I sacrificed a bit of light uniformity in change for that... but is summer was a bit better. Both have pro and cons! I recon that 3000k was the best too ;) You will not be disappointed with the results! PS: Just in case you did not know: there is a limit of the number of power supply you can put on the same main house differential magnetothermal switch. You may need to check that if you want to expand.
