Haha, I've been trying to figure out how to pull that off. We have to have a permit to park outside of the garages and they only issue permits if you either have more than three registered vehicles (motorcycles don't count or I'd be in) or if your vehicle is too big to fit in the garage 'safely'.
I got one when we moved in for the truck I had because it was longer than te garage but that truck's gone now and that permit expired. I use it for a while in my new ride but eventually it expired and they won't give me a new one....dicks, lol

thinking I'll see if my trailer counts and if it does, I'll squeeze my ride in the garage with the trailer and the motorcycles and try to get a permit for the wife's car. Then I could go as big as 8X10 since my trailer stays at the in-laws' place.
8x10 great ammount of space.. parking enforcement bastards..

A 12/12 grow from seed does not give you a mature plant in the way a six week veg gives you a mature plant. Even in a twelve twelve from seed grow the first week or so is vegetative growth until the plant realizes it's time to bloom because of the light schedule...but the plant is not naturally mature and ready to be flowered. As for auto flowers, they don't necessarily make auto flowering strains. An auto flower strain flowers regardless of the light schedule. They are ruderalis strains and will flower when they get ready, they are not tied to a 12/12 light schedule to flower. Personally we can do almost anything with cannabis and anyone can stick a seed in the ground and get bud from a 12/12, however, why just stick seeds in the ground and do a 12/12 when you can take the time to allow the plant to mature naturally and get a much better harvest? Also, I've done a couple of 12/12 from seed grows and the plants have never reached maturity enough to start alternate branching. Some of the girls I veg for six weeks don't start alternate branching until after flowering begins.
in a 12/12 from seed grow there is no change in the light cycle to cause any realization that its time to bloom. the only point in time a weed plant can flower either male or female is once its reached sexual maturity. i quote the cannabis grow bible, "...the plant must be mature enough to present its sex. An immature plant will not show sex because initial calyx development is not photoperiod-related." "...sex is not genetically determined until the third week of growth." you do have a point on the autoflowers as i dont have any experience or info on that. alternading nodes on branching is well known way to tell sex but i understand completely that some strains and seeds may not do it until after showing pre flowers or being put in flower.

Country- sounds like you can combine both your clone and veg area to save space and time of a dividing wall for a seperate room. i like the idea of the home-made SCROG on wheels, cant wait to see how that plays out.

1BMM- good looking buds! nice amount of different strains as well!

I need some advice here on a new setup I'll be building soon. I want to plan it out well so I'm not running around like a chicken with it's head cut off when I load it up with plants.

I'm getting another 600W digital to go with the one I already have and selling the 400W I don't use anymore. I have a new space to work with and will be building a new flower room. I've got 9'3" floor to ceiling and can build it as big as 5'X9'6".

Deciding between changing it up completely to a vertical in soil or NFT, setting up E&F in the room with two trays and two reservoirs (harvest one of them every 4-5 weeks) or setting up E&F with one big tray and just do one big harvest every 8-10 weeks.

Not sure I want to grow in anything other than E&F or possibly NFT if I go vertical. So far I've tried soil, E&F and DWC. Haven't tried any others and want to stick with what I've become used to.

I've got just about everything I'd need to do either E&F setups or soil. I'd have to pick up some things if I build a vertical setup and I'd need some parts for NFT. Not a big deal though.

I'm leaning towards the two E&F tables for the ability to harvest once a month but would like input from the 600 peeps. I'm entertaining the idea of a vertical because it doesn't use so much floor space, leaving me with a new veg room too if I build it to utilize all space available and divide the room up.
You should make sure that your bulbs are able to be hung vertically.....some are universal...but most are either or......other than that...I must suggest SCROG!!!!!! Try a vertical SCROG....that would be fkn awesome.....the best of both worlds!!!!

Yeh. Quick dried what is shown in the box. Really liked it. Nice indica body buzz that comes along with some psychoactives. I haven't tried the big bud yet, but it is easily the stickiest out of the three plants I harvested.

Vert scrog sounds like something I would like to see done, or maybe do myself after I get a horizontal under my belt. That is next on my grow ticket.

And now I need to stop surfing, quit procrastinating, and get back to trimming.

You should check out my last two grows.... both different variations on a vert scrog. I must say it's a very interesting way to grow. It's funny, people always ask me on youtube... "how do you get it to grow up the screen like that"... not sure what they are asking... plants just grow upwards usually don't they? lol

600w club eh..... ain't read much but what a big thread!
wonder i ain't seen it yet!
I run 2 x 600w'z and a 400w, each with there own tablbes, Aerophonic i do.....

little to fuk"d up off me last harvest to indulge more.... just look me up here....

I think 600w'z is the way to go, you get more of the spectrum for less annual coin....
how can you go wrong?


peace.... out..... :leaf:

now in a space that is more than 4x4, say like a 3x6, you would need two 600's to get proper coverage. but in a 4x4 space or tent with your light at the right height a single 600 could cver a 4x4 area.
-ZEN-
Am I understanding you correctly when you say that one light will cover more space than two per light? Sounds a bit contradictory. I'd have more confidence and better results using 2 600w bulbs covering a 4'x8' area (two 4'x4' areas) than one single 600w covering a single 4'x4' area. In other words, if you're going to use one 600 watter expect to get weaker results around the perimeter in a 4'x4' area:leaf:

Bump for Country Farmer.....


Do I see some purple in there or am i trippin. Nice flat of Bud CF

Cof thankyou. yep should last about a week hahaa. For the most part those plants were flowered under 1 600 watter. Give a good idea of what a single 600 can pull for our new growers in the mix. Im quite impressed with the frostyness. lol.

Nothing like having a good coughing choke off your own smoke. Trainwreck is really potent.

Love trainwreck. One of my favorite smokes. I think I am calling it a night. God am I a slow ass trimmer. If I worked for one of you guys you would have fired my ass by now, lol.

And yeh 1BBM. That strain purpled up on me. Sort of neat. Anyway, off to the showers and then bed. I'm whooped.

Thanks for the tips, opinions, advice, etc.

I'm glad I waited for my wife to get home before I started cutting up the lumber I bought. we talked about it all in the garage while looking at what all we have to deal with and she suggested building my new room around my existing rooms and then take down the existing rooms after so I don't mess up the light cycles on the plants at all. By keeping everything on that side of the garage, I can and will be bilding it to where it will have clear inside dimensions of 5'dX9'8"wX6'8"h. Stoked because If I stick with the 36"X84" table divided in half I'll have a solid 24" walkway between the table and the wall. I'll also be able to use the space at the end of the table as an area to keep mothers and veg youngins (32"X60"). So now I'm thinking I'll put up a couple shelves on the wall at the end where the mothers will be to germ seeds and root clones.
