Just built my self a little seedling/ clone box
Got some:
Green Crack
NYC S/D
I knocked the labels of those two should be able to tell as they grow ones sativa dom other Indica dom.
I’m also waiting on 1 fem cheese and 2 yantra regs to pop.
I have to take my other tent apart to fit another one next to it didn’t think it threw but I had a weed growing stiffi. The old I will worry about that later. When this grow is done I’ll pull everything apart and go to town. I’ll probably buy another shed cant see away around it.

 

[Lucky Luke]

Id like another shed but the costs of the slab puts me off. Not that ive priced a slab, just figured it would blow the cost out.

12m x 6m. That would be about the size id like. Wouldn't want anything smaller than 10 x 6.

Shipping containers my next buy, they’re good value

 

[DustyDuke]

Shipping containers are great my old man has a 20ft he kitted out as a bike work shop/bike storage

 

[Lucky Luke]

They are cheap. Not sure I'd like the look of a container where I live ATM

 

[DustyDuke]

He put cheap timber cladding and a couple of windows. It still looks like a big box but not such an eyesore. I always think weed plants when I see one

That’s a good starter baseI’d add a few more things to that though or you will have average plants. High grade compost, rice hulls/perlite or something like that, worm castings, bat guano, azomite, cow shit the list goes on.

You sure you ain’t selling it.
Ive grown auto’s recently if it’s to strong for a pheno it will be to strong for auto’s there still the same plant. Treat them as normal weed plants don’t listen to dick’s about there sensitive. They are as sensitive as a normal plants just no recovery time in veg. To be honest I won’t do auto’s unless it is outdoors for 2 harvests and the seeds are free

lol, i am not selling it, feel it would be better than the searles premium advanced soil i was using with time release ferts in it. This organic soil i thought would be less hot and better for the autos, which i grow doors, havent earned free seeds yet, have to do more grows, finsihing up second grow, was the best

Here's my nutrients for a sterile hydroponics grow.


It's kinda funny how my nutes cost less than the carbonated water that was originally in the bottles.
Designed to run with soft tap water, the only micro nutes my plants ever see are the ones provided by the tap water.
I do have micro nutes on hand just in case, but never had to use them.

Part A
Potassium nitrate 38.5g
Calcium nitrate 63g

Part B
Magnesium sulfate 76g
Monobasic potassium phosphate 36.5g

Cost 80c per 1.25 litre of a&b concentrate.
10ml per litre of water.

N 102ppm
K 202ppm
P 66ppm
Mg 60ppm
Ca 85ppm
S 79ppm

My veg nutes are the same but with 120ppm of nitrogen.
I use phosphoric acid for buffering.
