Hello everybody! This will be my 3rd grow since joining this site and I believe this one will be my favorite (not to mention highest yielding) one to date!
I will be growing Dutch Passion's AutoMazar, a strain that I believe I would call a "super auto". I ordered this seed along with Think Different and the mazar is the one that I decided I would take up the tent with.
Will be growing under 800 watts of LED. Im using the MARS II series lights from TopLED. The price was great for what I consider to be almost a replica of the BlackDog series. They pull about 180 watts each from what I have seen on various Kill a Watts, so we will say i'll be growing under 360 true watts of power.
I plan on doing a ScROG, usually I would just LST and tie down the branches, but I want to see how I can do using this method.
It is in a 3 gallon Hempy bucket that I made using about 75% coco coir and 25% perlite. A hole drilled about 2 inches up from the bottom will give me a small reservoir that she will use for sucking up those nutes! I have seen a few grows using this method and though it does not compete with DWC, it blows soil out of the water IMO.
You have no issues with pumps failing, no air stones to get clogged, and though you have to water more constantly than with soil, I think of that as a good thing. If I make a mistake, it can be seen very quickly and I can fix it quickly.![hump :hump: :hump:](/styles/smilies/hump.gif)
I will be using the KISS method with MaxiBloom (7 grams per Gal) for the majority of the grow, and during flowering time I will be using Humboldts Nutrients' Big Up Powder along with it. Cal/Mag for my calcium and magnesium. And Clearex for a flush should I ever need one in this bucket. My water will be pHed to 5.8, I will use RO when I can, but mostly tap water thats been left out for 24 hours.
I will be growing in a tent that is about 1.5x3x6, it has a 250 CFM exhaust fan at the top to evacuate the stale hot air, and an 8 inch room fan I use as my intake (MUCH stronger). My temps stay at 75 degrees pretty much all day. Maybe a couple degrees hotter on a hot day.
She will be on a 20/4 light schedule from seed to harvest. I can't wait until she starts budding and I can see that super fast growth!![Big Joint :bigjoint: :bigjoint:](/styles/smilies/smoking.gif)
