Hello everyone!
This grow is going to include some new methods, techniques and grow gear, that I haven't used before.
I'm still new to growing cannabis, so let's hope with all these new variables, that I don't screw things up ๐.
I'm using a new LED this grow. A Spider Farmer SF2000. It pulls 202 watts @120V from the wall (Hence the title). Since I'm growing Auto flowers, I'll try running them 24 hours a day for the first time.
Secondly, I'm using 3 gallon Airpots for the first time. I've used regular nursery plastic pots, and fabric pots in the past, but these look interesting. Hopefully they air prune the roots as nicely as the fabric pots, and be easier to clean and sterlize for re-use.
I'm using coco coir for the first time. I'm accustomed to ProMix, and wanted to see what all the hype is about firsthand. I'm doing a side by side grow of Coco Coir vs ProMix vs 50/50 coco&ProMix. All three pots also have about 15% perlite mixed in. Each pot also began with Gaia Green Dry Fertilizer mixed in with 6 Tablespoons of 4-4-4 and 3 Tablespoons of 2-8-4 per pot. This little experiment will be far from scientific
since I'm starting from seed and different phenos will show their own growth characteristics, however, some general traits of each grow media should be observed.
Thanks for stopping by!
Peace,
DeaneR๐
Good luck on your grow... hope it turns out great..i will be following..kinda interested in the gaia green..i have only ever grown in water dwc / rdwc thinking about trying new ways..
@420Hydro,Hey thanks
I watched a guy on you-tube(canuck grows or something like that)
All he used was Gaia green 4-4-4,and 2-8-4 power bloom, thats it.
check out his grows if you can find him.

@DeaneR,I used very min. amounts
fellow at the green house said it was good for root growth and nutrient uptake from the soil.
worth a try๐

@northernMike, Thanks Mike, I wish I had a real camera with a tripod. My shaky handed Samsung tablet works pretty good, but man, alot of do-overs, ๐.
