thanks for all the positive feedback guys, always makes a fellow grower feel good. your babes are beautiful del.
well, the reason why i have it set up like this is because of time. im getting ready to move soon so i need them to be done fast, change kinda happened a little sooner than expected... but ill make it work. its not the best by far, just the best that i could do with the money i have. trying to make the most out of everything i can utilize. experiments are my thing right now since i just started growing not too long ago. ive never had a plant stay 100% healthy the whole way through, and as of right now things are going better than expected. experiments with cutting/pruning/lolipopping-whatever you want to call it, rootbound, topping, lsting, seeing what a plant does when grown with high ph levels along with low ph levels, same with high doses of ferts compared to lower doses. supercropping during different stages of flowering to see differences in growth. cutting fan leaves and leaving the nodes, cutting nodes and leaving the fan leaves. noting any small changes in node/bud growth throughout the whole plants life. just trying to learn as much as i possibly can before i move, because my dream is to make this my career.
theres a variety of strains in my garden, and while most all of them were started under 12/12, there are 9 plants in my garden that were put in the flower room after 29 days in veg from sow. thats why you'll see bigger plants in the back and toward the middle.
1k and 400 watt hps above the canopy, 6bulb t5 4ft by 2.5ft angled down to get the canopy and some of the sides aswell, relfecting the light off of the wall. 2bulb t5 on the left side of the garden to get some extra lumens and to reflect more of that light. also to utilize more would be wasted light i tape/glue/tack 2mil Mylar to large cut cardboard pieces.
150watt hps over my 3dwarfs that will be done in a couple weeks (when they are done i will replace the smaller t5 from my garden with the 150watt hps) another small 2bulb t5 over my experimental aero/hydro system. havent asked for help, want to try it myself before anything. figured they would have died by now but they are doing so good.
the yellowed plants in the smaller 16oz cups are my experiment with rootbound plants, and what happens to the growth and color of the plant when the roots dont have the surface area they need to thrive.
jacks classic for the win, every plant im not experimenting on looks perfect except for 1 or two lower fan leaves. cant wait to get more money so i can experiment with different kinds of ferts, and combine them too.
if u guys got any more questions let me know ok? thanks a lot dudes compliments much appreicated
