Hey what's up people. I'm a long time smoker, first time grower. In the beginning of researching a set up. Any recommendation? First I will explain what I'm thinking of doing and feel free to give me some pointer.
1. The box
The box will be 4'6"x4'x3 most likely pine. the out side will resemble an armoire. The inside will be covered in a white vinyl. This is for three things, one white to reflect light, two vapor seal, three a tight seal will help keep bugs out. Two small mounted oscillating fans. Mounted around half way up. At the bottom a unidirectional intake valve, 3" diameter. the single action intake should keep bugs out. At the top one squirrel cage fan that vents out. (no carbon filter). Just a few dryer sheets tacked into place. (changed weekly) mounted in the top right corner a air purifier/ozone ionizer.
2. Lights
I'm hearing mixed things about LED's. I was thinking a 90W UFO with 4 screw in CFL's for budding? The CFL's will be mounted on the sides of the box and will not be moveable. I am drawn to LED's and CFL's because of the low heat given off and the low power required to run them. I ran the numbers and with a set up like this its the equivalent of running an old tube style TV 24/7. (a sad number of people do that).
3. Hydo or Soil?
No clue how do I choose?
4. Nutes
No clue... brands to recommend?
5. What ill be growing
I only smoke Blueberry strains. For the most part. I love it! I do everything I can to get my hands on that. So it only makes cense that thats what I would grow. I also plan on growing with a Scoge??? I think its called. Any thoughts or tips on that?
Well I think that covers it. Any question or comments would be a great help!
