protopipe1s tent grow!

• Growing in a DR 100 tent (love it!). Exhausting w/450 CFM through carbon filter into closet attic.
• Lit by 600 watt dig HPS from HTG and using the Agromax bulb w/enhanced blue spectrum.
• Temps stay in the low 70s and humidity is around 45%.
• Growing in 4 plant top drip set up and a waterfarm.

• Nutes-Dutch Master Gold Grow A & B, DM Zone, and Cal-Mag, for vegging.
• To flower, I add in Liquid Koolbloom and Flora Nectar, and then replace the Koolbloom with AN Overdrive the remaining 2-3 weeks of flower. Then, after 2 week flush they will be harvested.

I took some more pics...this time I used the close up mode, so they maybe a little better. I am waiting for a better camera to arrive, but until then this will do. This is a boring phase of growth IMHO. Flowering is a blast and watching the buds grow so explosively like they do is a joy to see!

The first 2 pics are Widows, the next is the NYCD and the next is the Blue Moonshine, I am going to load (he he, I said load!)the last pic of the LA Confidential in the next pst. P

The exhaust is really loud, so I hooked up a speed control to it. I am running it at about 70% maximum speed and my room is in the low 70s. I tried using the thermostat controller that automatically turns the fans on at a set temp, but it killed my plants in there 3rd week of flower. And I will have smell issues if I don't run in 24/7. Now it is just a matter of time waiting to turn to 12/12.
Thanks for your kind words. Peace out, protopipe1

Here are a few pics of the other tent. I am going to grow out 4 Kushberrys in 2 waterfarms, under 2-150 watt HPS, and 3-125 watt CFLs w/7,500 lumens each. This is ducted to my attic using the fan in my other tent as well as 1-2 small fans for circulation. protopipe1
P.S. I will post pics of the other 5 girls, they got there last veg nutes this morning, so I am ready to go 12/12.

Hey riu farmers!

I flipped my lights to 12/12 this morning, after flushing with just h2o for 24 hrs.

I fed transition base nutes only (1/2 DM Gold Grow A & B and 1/2 DM Advanced Bloom A & B). Next week I will give them there first full base bloom nutes, and add in Flora Nectar and Koolbloom. I will stay on this regimen from weeks 1 to 6 and then replace the Koolbloom with AN Overdrive for weeks 7 and 8. After a 2 week flush, I will harvest. The NYCD will get an extra week of Overdrive. (I foliar fed with DM Reverse and will repeat in 10 days).
I made one minor mistake when I put my NYCD in the waterfarm, which is 6-8 inches taller than my other hydro set up. Next grow I will grow out another LA CON in the waterfarm and grow 2 Super Lemon Hazes and 2 Red Diesels. This should help me keep an even canopy!
