High guys, thanks for stopping in to take a look at my first grow, the grow room is a 2'x5'x8' closet, for veg lighting i currently have 8 6500k CFL's running, its a bit cluttered now i know but once I'm out of veg phase it will be nice and clean, i still haven't gotten the ventilation set up for my stealth veg cab so things are a bit messy in there for the moment. For flowering i have a 400 watt digital ballast, a radiant 6 hydro-farm air cooled hood, and a 450 CFM fan and carbon filter combo from HTG supply. I have also equipped the room with a wall mounted oscillating fan, a flame defender ceiling mounted fire extinguisher, a min/max digital hygrometer, air pots, home made scrog crates, and a smoke detector.
I would like to grow hydro but from what i have read the learning curve is a bit steep so i have decided to go with a soil less premixed soil mix to get the hang of things first and if all goes well i will be switching to dwc in the next grow or 2, this is the recipe i used its a slightly modified version of vic's super soil.
2.8 cu ft promix
1.0 cu ft ffof
8 cups Bone Meal 0 10 0
4 cups Blood Meal 12 0 0
25 lb pure worm castings 1 0 0
7.3 cups green sand 2 tbsp per gal
4 cups powdered dolomite lime
4 cups kelp meal 0.6 0 1.5
Epsom salts
25% perlite
8 cu feet total
Here are some pics of the room,
well that's all for now folks i will be posting better pics of the plants soon.
