Ok, so tomorrow Im going to start my first indoor grow in my garage, I'm going to do 8 plants on one 1000w HPS setup or more if I can but Ive been told 8 is good for one 1000w, so far I have
1000w HPS Basic Setup (Hood, Bulb, Ballast)
8 5Gal Buckets, with holes drilled in the bottom
5 Big bags of FoxFarm soil
I have a variety of nutrients:
FoxFarm Big Bloom, Bat Guano, XNutrients Line Up (Micro, Bloom, Grow)
I should be getting clones tomorrow, I need some help in deciding what to grow, or what would be best to grow for my setup and all, I want some good stuff and high yielder but doesnt really matter too much just whatevers good for indoor grow, heres the list of clones that I can get tomorrow and maybe you guys can help me decide on which ones i should get, I will also be taking pictures throughout this journal from clone to finished bud
One buddy has these clones available
Green Crack
Candy Purple
One buddy has these available
NYC Diesel
Purple Romulan
One buddy has these available
Cherry Pie
Master Kush
Lemon OG Kush
ChemDawg4
Bubba Kush
So i got a few buddies that have these strains available, I would prefer to goto one buddy and get all 8 of my clones... so heres kinda what i need help with.
1. What buddy should I get my clones from and which clones?
2. Can a 1000w HPS do 8 plants comfortably?
3. I got 5 gal buckets, is this too big or can I get away with using these?
4. How much electricity (or about how much) will this run up every month?
5. Do I need an AC unit? Im growing in my garage, I live in northern cali, nights get cold as 40 and days are usually under 70 and it stays pretty cold in my garage
6. When I get my clones tomorrow I am going to transplant them into the buckets and then under the light they go, What is my lighting schedule suppose to be? 18 on 6 off? or 12 and 12? Im not sure
Sorry for all the newbie questions but I just wanna make damn sure I do this right the first time (or at least try! haha) and what a better place then rollitup? Thanks Guys!
