Dyold's Grow 1

[Dyold]

Day 1 for one MMJ script. Other script will go in the ground tomorrow. Grow room almost finished, just need to add ventilation (it is in shipping at post time) a little fine tuning and we are good.
Couple picks of the light pulley system.
clones under lights for 2 days prior to transplanting to final 5gln containers.
15 Permafrost under 1000w HPS.

subscribed. what is your soil mixture? what pH are you adjusting your water to?

 

[Dyold]

Soil is #4 mix its neutral PH. Water information for area have not tested this yet, is around 6.5

Subscribed look is like ingredients to awesomeness!! What's your plans for the grow if you don't mind me asking

 

[KingJohnC]

you want pH 5.8 for hydroponic and soiless (peat moss and coco coir) and pH 6.5 for soil.

here is a nutrient availability chart

Day 2. Had some help today and finished transplanting the remaining 5 Permafrost and 10 ATF's.

To answer a couple of questions. The fruit of this labor is for MMJ patients and is my first attempt at growing on this scale indoors and my first real grow outside of a couple plants over the years.

Some spec's ( everyone loves the spec's )

Room is 12 ft. (3.66 meters) wide by 17 ft (5.18 meters) deep with 9 ft (2.74 meters) ceilings.
Venting will be done with 12 inch (30.48 cm) Hurricane fan intake with a 8 inch (20.32 cm) Hurricane fan exhaust. Hoods are all Yield Master II 6 inch (15.24 cm) vented with glass enclosures and 2 275 cfm inline fans. I picked this up used from a respectable person and the gear all checked out prior to purchase.
Cooling the room ( if needed as we are coming up on winter ) with a 14K BTU AC Portable Unit.
All the Ladies are in 5 gallon (18.93 liters) pots with Sunshine Mix #4. They will remain in these containers.
Can filter for the smell of course, although it is a legally sanctioned grow, just to keep the curious at bay.

That is it for this entry and much appreciation to all those that have shared the knowledge.

Week 2. Small signs of heat stress. Electrician is in this weekend thankfully. Hoping that the one ATF is ging to pull thru. Time will tell. .

 

[Dyold]

Well here we are 10 days after transplanting to 5 Gallon containers. I have been topping/femming from the beginning and have started my version of low stress training to get the plants bushy.

Thankfully the weather has cooled down and so far everything is still alive and thriving, even the little girl I thought was toast is slowly recovering.

Almost think i should just put another in its place and move her back to the vegi/clone room. I also have some Nutes inc from Fox Farms. I am also wondering if this type of Molasses is good/OK to use between Nutrient feedings and general flushing.

Thanks and have fun.

 

[Light Addict]

Subbed well up for this. Gonna be a Forrest!

 

[Dyold]

Can anyone tell me if the brand of Molasses is good to use between watering with nutrients and for general flushing?

 

[Light Addict]

You want blackstrap my friend

 

[Dyold]

Thank you for the subs Light Addict and everyone. The advice has been helpful and put to good use.

 

[Dyold]

Here are a couple of pics form last night and then again this morning before I watered.

Have the Titan set up and installed (certified)

 

[Light Addict]

Loving the training you've done my friend great looking girls. jealous of your big set up!

 

[Dyold]

Thank you Light Addict, appreciate the props.

 

[Dyold]

Some more training photo's with recovery over 2 days time.

 

[Light Addict]

Really nice job my friend, Your methods look similar to mine for the training into bushes. I just go a little more nuts, but I am doing one girl only so no wonder!

 

[Dyold]

Thank you LA. I am attempting this with 29 and a runtling.

Some pics of recovery and I am trying my hand at defoliation, of course with a self imposed twist as always. Like LBH said " Make it your own garden". so I have endeavored to do so. Thank you for the comments and advice I try to put it to good use.

Are the temperature's and humidity at a safe level ?
edit: I just noticed that the temp low is reading 90, it was actually 82 for the low during lights out for 4 hours.

Edit: This is the last day without proper ventilation, 12 and 8 inch hurricane fans with filter being installed Monday.

Has anyone tried the GLR light cycle for a legit grow. I have discussed this with some friends and everyone seems very hesitant to say how this work. I would love some feedback on this subject that is on the level and not some hype or joke. Thank you in advance. If your not comfortable posting here please PM me. Thanks.
