Hello there. I'm Step. I'm not a totally new member, but haven't been around the longest either and have also been away for a little while. I'm a B.S. Biology undergrad getting ready to graduate. I've got a huge passion for growing, for over 15 years now, but just getting the hang of it within the past few. In the past I've grown outdoors, but recently within the past few years I've moved indoors to my closet, slowly upgrading after each harvest. I've gone from 5gal buckets with dirt and CFL lights, to 600w HPS and DWC hydroponics, to now my favorite Ebb and flow systems, 3w LEDs, 5w LEDs, COBS, you name it.
I've just recently added a 5'x5'x7' scrog setup with a 1000w Hortilux bulb in addition to my 6'x2' 1100w LED closet setup for a total of about 27sq ft, or 2.5sq m. My record is something like 1.1 g/w and ~1400 some g/m. I'm looking for a big harvest this round, instead of a perpetual continuous harvest as in the past, so I can cash out all at once and move somewhere more accommodating that has more room, and most importantly: Find somewhere that is easier to maintain the power bill. So, expect a wild and fantastic ride on my next journal!
I plan on taking the utmost care of this grow and my goal is 10lbs. If I don't get at least 7.5lbs I will be pretty upset, but there are always problems when you least expect them (or don't need them). For those of you worried I might not be able to take care of the plants in the black, there are access panels on both sides of the tent that will give me plenty of room to work.
If you are looking for a good journal to follow for the next few months, drop in and check me out from time to time. My last colas were larger than 2 liter bottles, and I have now more than tripled my grow space and also have several strains this harvest. Thanks to all, this community is absolutely wonderful. I've learned so much, and want to share my experiences, past and present, so that you can learn from my past mistakes, help me with mistakes I might be making that I still do not recognize, and watch my progress. Cheers every1! Have a great 4/20 month!
