juicepro Hi everyone,
I'm real excited about sharing my grow on this site. I"m still waiting for my clones to get delivered but wanted to post some pics of the equipment I'll be using I took the summer off from growing because it gets too hot where i live. I used that time to brush up on my skills by watching Grow Boss videos on YouTube and reading his grow book (highly recommended). I also attended Harley Smith's online course at NPK university.
I cant wait to try out some of the new techniques I just learned but changing so many variables at once is sure to create unexpected problems also.
Wish me luck!
The Transplant 9/21/17
I set up the tent and tested it out, I learned that I didn't really need the carbon filter yet or run the inline fan since it only cools 2 degrees when running 100w of light. I did add a dehumidifier because I'm paranoid about powdery mildew.
I learned that each 54w T5 bulb I turned on increased the tent temp by 1 degree.
The transplant went well even though them showing up in riot rooter starts kinda caught me off guard because i had to go straight into 1 gal. I ran about 7 gal of 6.0Ph water through the soil and added microbes and Yukka extract to the final feeding. I'm currently running 1 6500k and 1 full spectrum bulb.
I'm unsure as when to start feeding the 3 in coco because i usually grow in soil exclusively and only use plain city water for the first few weeks.

juicepro I'm down to 9 plants from 15 at the start. I was really disappointed because that never happens, I blame the new source for clones that I used. I won't bash them here but I won't be using them again. I was tempted to just start over but am going to continue with 9 and see how it goes.
I've watered once on day 10, added a little cal/mag, microbes.

juicepro Week 3 Update
Day 16 Culled #6 and FIMMed the rest
Day 17 Watered about 1 gal total, added cal/mag. 5.8ph 260ppm
I'm down to just 8 clones from 15 and after much thought I've decided to switch my set up from a 2 light rotation to a 3 light rotation. Flowering only 8 clones isn't very efficient. So I'm going to start another batch of 8 to run concurrently with a 3-4 week delay. This way my harvests will be smaller but more frequent. Every 30 days if everything goes to plan. I've already ordered some Grape D clones which should be arriving today. I'll start a new diary for those once I've transplanted them.
