First off, comments are appreciated. Especially if the comments are funny with good info! I'd like for this to be fun and involved for myself and anyone curious about my grow. Okay, then! Journal time!
I'm hopefully going to begin a grow. I've ordered 75% of my stuff which should all arrive next week. Stuff which I'll talk about. Unfortunately, I'm not so sure when my seeds will get here. I ordered bubblelicious auto feminized seeds from Nirvana. I'll also talk about stuff I haven't ordered.
My grow area:
I'm dealing with a 100 cubic foot closet here minus the space used up by a water heater. 5.4 x 2.8 x 7. I like it because there is already power in there (hopefully enough for what I'll run through) and also because it is in a private centralized location in my home. I'll post pictures eventually.
Equipment:
Lights: metal hallide during veg and hps during flowing. I was very close to using cfls but I decided I wanted something more for my plants. I want to give them the best of the best. I want them to feel like they are out in nature. Mainly so that I can chop them after they've made fat dense buds to smoke
....which I believe cfl grow wouldn't be able to match the size and density so I've read. I also wanted to avoid fucking with ugly wires and extension cords that I'd need with cfl. I've got my 400W apollo ballast on the way and the air cooled reflective thing coming too... I just need to get my bulbs.
Inline fan: haven't gotten this one yet
Scrubber: see above!
Soil: coco coir and perlite
Pots: 2 gallon and 5 gallon fabric pots.
My nutrients and cal+mag are on the way. I have my pH kit. I have a pH+moisture meter. I need a temp+hygrometer.
Really all that's left for me to get are bulbs, the scrubber, fan, duct work and random shit like chains and hooks. I even had to order a drill. I'm NOT handy but maybe that's where you guys come in!
That's all for now. All I can do is wait and prep my closet up. Step 1: Cut hole in ceiling without electrocution or dismemberment. Step 2: staple panda film on walls floor and ceiling and over the water heater.
Pretty good start?
