Feel free to post any comments or questions about my setup or grow!!
Please just keep it on topic and somehow related to this post and try to keep multiple points to one post. I am always open to feedback or questions.
Getting things set up for my 2nd crop and figure I'd start one of these things this time around.
Today I got my buckets in finally so things are starting to come together.
Have a bunch of my parts in and will need to get this together soon so I can get my clones out of the cloner! Trying to avoid the black Friday stuff so I'll probably have to wait a couple more days to get the rest of the PVC stuff for my water falls. They will be set up pretty much like the drains.
For this grow im building a new veg room in a 5x5x7 tent with 2x 4ft 8 bulb T5 lights and 3.5 gallon buckets.
I went with T5s for the heat! My LEDs in my big tent dont put out enough heat and I had a hard time keeping temps up during my first veg. These lights get pretty warm so it should help without being too hot. I have a full set of new 6500k HO bulbs on the way. Will keep them nice and low on the plants. I also got them will all good bulbs for $100 for the pair off a local seller. Couldn't pass that up, they're like $150 each new.
8" duct with a 700+ cfm fan are a bit overkill, but its adjustable and I already had all of it.
I will be building in a platform 18" tall for my buckets to sit on. My back isnt what it used to be, so getting them up off the ground some will be great when it's time to train. The drains from each bucket will go through the platform and connect underneath it.
I am considering not using a control bucket and doing just undercurrent, but I'm not 100% on this.
I use 6" net pots that fit on 5/3.5gallon buckets. I bought a case of 25 when I built the first system so it worked out perfect for this. The big system is 17 gallon totes with holes in the lids that fit the pots. So when I'm done veg I'll be able to just pick the hole net pot up off the buckets and just drop it in it's new home for flower.
I guess that's about it for now. This is what I have going so far, waiting on slow holiday shipping. Will update here as I get things done.
Clones are Bruce Banner, Skywalker OG, and some grape shit I have no idea what it is.
