Ive been lurking and reading a lot the past couple months, and as i was moving into my new place i decided to give it a shot. I decided to have both a flower and vegging side to my closet instead of just one large area to try and get a harvest every 2 months.
Nutrients: Fox Farms (Main 3 For Now, Thinking about adding the 3 optionals)
Vegging:
4 x 2in. Passive Intakes (Can Points fans into them to cool room another 5 degrees if needed)
1 x 4in. exhaust fan (pulls through the center of the hood)
Home-Made hood with reflective tape
4 x 50w Actual 6500 CFLs
4 x 23w Actual 2700 CFLs
2 x DIY BB
1 x 140 Gallon Air Pump
2 x 4in Air Stone (1 per bucket)
Light is Let to 18/6 With The Exhaust Fan on When Light is on.
Small Desk Fan & Air Pump on 24/7
Nutrients: Have Them in around 100ppm of Big Bloom & Grow Big for first week til i see roots, then going to increase to 300-400??? Your input is welcome here.
PH: Water was 5.8 when i put it in now its 6.0 but not changing. should i add a little ph down to get it back to 5.8 or leave it. (i have the waterproof series ph/ppm meter)
Temps:
Room Temp Is 78-83 Light On, 70-80 Light off.
Water is never over 77 F. Any input to this? seems a little high. whats a number to shoot for? 68 F?
Air Circulation: The fan is a moddified stanley unit that i hooked up a 6 inch T and then ran to the top of both the rooms. from there i put a 4 inch hole and a 4 inch adapter on the inside of the room which pulls air through both hoods. All the air that is sucked through the hood is blown out under the house. New fresh air comes through the passive intakes from my room which has 2 large windows pointing towards the front of the house that i leave open during the day, and sometimes at night. (gets a little too cold at night for me)
Flowering: Will type it up later and when/if these girls make it there. But i will be using a 400w HPS FYI.
Clones: I have 1 Purple Bubble Kush, and 1 Kryptonite.
Purple Kush is going good, thick stem and seems fine. dark green and healthy looking
Krytonite is droopy and has thin stems. couple burnt spots from light too close so i moved it a little further away to try and get the leaves facing up. Any inputs? the leaves are lighter and feel thinner. cut one brach because it was sagging so bad and eventually curled and was dieing.
Picks Up in a couple mins (lost the camera cord in the move, going to Bestbuy today and will have them up by tonight)
