Welcome to Autlip's Automatic Perpetual Adventure Wonderland.
We'll be starting a perpetual run of autos today. The goal is to maintain 5-6 autoflowering plants and stagger harvests about 2 weeks apart. Autos were chosen so we can use a single tent setup. While we're growing autos, we're going to experiment with topping each strain to see how they respond. We'll also experiment with different nutrients and compost teas, though we will be staying organic. Might even break out the refractometer for all the high brix fans.
Location:
Indoors in a Growlab 80L 2'7"x4'11"x6'7" tent.
Equipment:
Old style Mars Hydro 300watt lights (130 true watts)
Quantum 600w HPS with Yieldlab 600w bulb.
6" nobrand inline fan with 8" Phresh filter. Passive intake.
Grow medium:
Coots recipe living organic soil. 1/3 Peat Moss, 1/3 Worm Castings, 1/3 Perlite. Crustation meal, kelp meal, neem cake, and rock dust minerals as ammendments.
5gallon Smart pots from start to finish.
We also have a swick bed of perlite that will be dry until I purchase a dehumidifier.
Here's an image of our setup, the plan is to start seeds under the mars 300w on the right, and progressively move them left, with the bulk of flowering under the 600w HPS. (ignore the plants currently in there. Just 3 photoperiod plants from my other grow flowering(link in Sig))
And an idea of how we'll run them averaging 10 week seed to harvests. 3 plants can be put on the left if needed.
Strains:

We'll update soon with a sprout hopefully.
