Bgsixx's 2x4 Grow Lab, Different Strains, Lots Of Pics

So finally got the 5x5 up and running. And i have to say its pretty dam easy to setup these ac Infinity kits, took about 15minutes to get tent up, about 30 mins to get exhaust fans and oscillating fans hooked up, and about 2 hours before my high 9n brownies ass could figure out the 69controller. But finally got it setup, and this fuckin light is huge and bright. The fans are super quiet, the inline fan is quiet up to setting5 after that it gets a lil loud, but not to bad. I have the light dimmed down to 4 outta 10 and temps havent hit 80 yet. It stay around 77, and im venting str8 into the lung room for right now, since its pretty cool outside. I know in the summer things will change.

Autos are loving the space after their first day in the tent. Also decided to check ph and ill be dammed if my ph was like 5.3-5.5, way to low. Recalibrated ph pen and checked again, yup 5.3. so grabbed a cup of tapwater and checked it, it was 6.9-7.1.. let it sit for a couple hours and checked again and it was down to 6.7. so ill just let water sit for a day and check ph before watering from now on. Well I'll just check 5 gallon buckets of water. If they are between 6-7 ph, good to go. But they plants are still thriving, just not uptaking some nutes. Hopefully theyre str8 now. Also filled buckets of smaller autos for the first time, ph 6.7 water.
Dam its a lot of space in this tent. Also zipped my self up inside to check for light leaks, found none, just have to make sure port socks are completely closed. Thats the only spots i saw lights. Tent takes up half the dam room though, small room. So far i like it, and it is high quality and thickest ive had. Snapped some pics of course. 1st pic is before i put big mama up.

That looks great! Nice kit and clean environment. :thumb:
 
Looking like the autos in the buckets might be stunted. They just should be bigger by now. Oh well they will stay.

Gonna setup autopots after xmas. Will put some autos in them. Gonna use the canna coco and canna nutes a and b, along with canna pk and calmag. Also if theres room will put as many buckets in there as i can, probably 1 or 2 more autos in buckets. Just wanna make sure i have enough plants to fill these 2 tents up. Gonna grow autos starting out, but will try a run with some clones. Thats the tentative plan for now.

Dope setup bro, that MF is huge did everything come included lights and all?
 
So went ahead and put some auto seeds in some canna coco. Also went ahead and set auto pot system up. Have the 2 6.6gallon pots filled with str8 coco mixed with some mycos. Put 2 Fatality autos from speedrun seeds in those. Watered them in with a weak mix of canna a&b 5ml/gal. Watered each pot with 125ml before I planted seeds, waited about an hour, then planted. Used turkey baster to moisten dirt over seed. Used the rest of the canna i had and filled 5 gallon fabric with it and mixed in some grow dots. Just gonna use plain water phd to 5.8-6.2 and recharge once a week on that pot. Planted a mystery seed from speedrun in it. All the mystery seeds look pale and small, don't know about these beans. The Fatality seeds were big and dark green. We'll see.

Was thinking about top dressing the supreme runtz auto, but shes pretty green. Dont wanna overfeed like I've done to the others, gotta work on my topdressing skills with these autos. Also gotta find a style and stick with it. But thats what this is an experimental run, never had a space nowhere near this size. But hopefully it'll fill up now. All this moist coco raised the humidity up to perfect vpd range, so thats a plus, but this granite haze is looking rough, but flowers are getting bigger. She just gets plain phd water and recharge once a week. Snapped a few pics, not really much changed from 2 days ago, but auto pots and new round fabric pot.

So checked trics on both plants, also sampled both. Trics are mostly cloudy, not much amber. So they both will get harvested around day 70 they're on day 61 now. The potency is there, both are headbangers, just need a lil more time. Nice head high to start out, and relaxing after about 30min. Last about 2 hrs or so. So I'm happy about potency, but it could get better. Wanting to see them fade out a lil. Overall im satisfied with this run. Should get at least 3-4ozs each.

The seeds i planted still havent come up yet. Other plants are doing their thing. Snapped some tric pics.

Big autos day 50, small autos in buckets are on day 27, and yes they are miniature. Might've over watered, dont think so, but who knows. So this tall lanky auto is looking very rough, and i dont know what it is. Ph is on point. And the supreme runtz is doing great, and i haven't even topdressed her yet. They're both in the same mix, mixed 10 gallons of soil so both have same nutes and been getting same water. Temps and humidity are on point. And now the ones in the buckets are doing the same thing. Idk wtf is going on. Maybe some of these plants are light feeders and acting like real bitches right now!!! Not to worried, i got more seeds, not every seed is a winner. Gonna maybe put 2 more autos in there since these 2 in the buckets are gonna be little. Still debating. But the supreme runtz is looking pretty good in my eyes. Maybe I'll try some epsom salt, and foliar spray it on them. Even though its flowering i think it's still early enough to spray w/o worrying about mold, plus its dry af round here.

On a good note, both Fatality autos have popped above soil, so its officially day 1 for those babes. Already got some nutes mixed up 5ml/gal canna a&b ph 5.8. I'm gonna use a turkey baster to start out with. They will get a baster full every other day for now.

And the mystery auto seed is pushing soil up, so she'll be up tomorrow, but I'll just say they all started today. The mystery seed is in a 5 gallon fabric pot with grow dots in it. Bought the $10 sample pack to try out. Just plain water and recharge once a week. I'll innoculate her with some recharge once she gets bigger. Hope they take off.

The flowering babes are very close, ordered me another microscope, wireless. The one I have has a short in the cable.
The photos are picking up the pace a lil more. Not too worried right now about them, got some 1 gallon pots ready for them.

The flowering 2x4 tent is drying now. Finally made it, and these babes smell awesome. Im gonna stick with my eatimate of 6ozs total from both plants. They will dry quick as my humidifier is currently busy in big tent. So humidity is very low around here, so after 4-5 days hanging, they should be crispy on the outside. Then ill put them in cardboard boxes for about 3 or 4 days or until they feel ready for grove bags.
Also will hook up vent to the attic for 5x5. Hate cutting holes in the ceiling, but its for a great cause, so I'll do it!lol
And the last note, I'm getting rid of the 2 sour black cherry haze autos in the buckets, they just aint living up to expectations. My fault of course!!! And i dont know what I've done wrong. So will grab a few bags of coco loco, some ewc, and some gaia green bloom. Thinking about mixing happy frog and coco loco together and amending it. Also gonna grab me some ac Infinity self watering bases, so i wont overwater fabric pots anymore. I will plant 2 or 3 more autos in buckets, and use the other 3 for the photos. I'll mix all buckets up today and give them a watering of recharge to innoculate. So my day is pretty busy. I love it and its cold as shit outside!
I'll try some pics.

Ok so killed the 2 sour black cherry hazes...i just fucked them up, had to be that walmart soil, or i over watered, or too many dry amendments. Dont know, But i have plenty seeds and just got some fresh soil, 1bag of ffof, and 1 bag of FF happy frog. Also got some gaia green 2-8-4. And 1 large bag of ewc. 100 bucks. $25 a piece i guess. Guy said coco loco is coming Friday. They had some promix bx but i wanted high porosity. Gonna use this soil on the photos going into the 2x4 in buckets. Just gonna use coco on autos. 1 of the Fatality autos in autopots is looking weird, I'll give her a couple more days, and replace. Gonna use last brick of canna coco on 2 3 gals if possible. Amended coco. Also vented 5x5 exhaust to the attic, and the smell is gone. Snapped some pics.

Looking good over there. Be careful venting into the attic. Moisture can build up and cause mold issues in the attic. Also...not too much of a worry for you, but my first grow setup in my closet years back, I vented up, and let's just say my house was the only one on the block that didn't have snow. That was just from 2 small tents. If you can get up there and run ducting out towards the vents on the eves would be best if you have to do it.
