So I've started the new clones "papaya" I got these plants form a friend so i don't really got any good info on them..

I've started rooting the clones under my old 15 watts repti "2.0" T8 fluorescent light + daylight - ind a small greenhouse using and airpump for the solution under the netpots
solution: 2,5L osmose water ph 6.5 + 8 ml Hesi root complex
-My plan is 14 days in this environment.

Next plan is to pot the plant in 10x10cm pots with clay pellets an veg. the plants for another 14 days under a new grolux 30 watts T8 fluorescent light and start using nutrients "hesi hydro grow"

More to come iam thinking a update a week in the future

Thats my grow space for now... Iam planning on making an enclosed shelf at the top backwall in the closet for veg. 10 - 10x10cm pots.
The shelf gonna be L:20 W:100 H:35cm an powered by one long 30 watts fluorescent light - all plants in one long line under the light for 14 days.

please comment
 
Re: Papaya, hydro, 250 watts, light mover

im just wondering why juicy has not got this moved to actually inside the 'Journals in Progress'
(yup push the blame on the other guy) ;]

your nice sized box gives plenty of ideas.
 
Re: Papaya, hydro, 250 watts, light mover

B.S. My man ;)
You can write to one of the moderators, they can move your journal too journals in progres.
I think it will be done anyways, eventionly? No worries bro, grow :reading420magazine::rollit::rollit:
You can find them in the bottom of the growroom page.
 
Re: Papaya, hydro, 250 watts, light mover

High all:smokin:

Now i have thought up a bit of a new plan for my next grow..

:yummy:Iam gonna change from 10 to 18 pots:yummy:

;My plan for making "The shelf powered by one long 30 watts fluorescent light - all plants in one long line under the light for 14 days" has
changed to iam gonna make another shelf instead LHW 60x50x50 for keeping 20 clones

;New plan is SOG with 18 plants under 250 watts Hps
letting the clones root and grow for 4 weeks under 18h and then go ind the bloom system for 12/12
iam gonna have to upgade my closet with a few new things.. more tubing, drippers and new pots

I made a web order today:cool:
I need a bigger exhaust fan for my next upgrade... i wanna try out co2:idea:

I made some study but i think i still gonna need some help and input
i've come up with a simple system.. though i still have some unanswered questions:reading420magazine:


The system i've come up with supplies 520 ml co2/h
so i gez i need to run it for 3H and then vent the room.. how many times a day should I do this?
Also I was thinking i have 1,5L free space "air" ind my brewer....
can this space be used as storage place for the co2 inclosed by the magnet valve and then released all at once:helpsmilie:

found that 1500ppm is 1,2 L co2 per cubic meter....:hmmmm:
closet size: 1,332 cubic meter - 1 cubic meter=1000L For my closet i need 1,4L comments?

Thats a cool idea but how will the magnetic valve know when to move?? Is it on a timer?
How do you like the light mover?
 
Re: Papaya, hydro, 250 watts, light mover

Yes the timer is also ind my pretty drawing:smokin2:

Light mover for now IS HARDCORE damn nice....
ind they old days i grew in soil an made some nice buds under 2x400w hps but as it looks now i think i can get the same if not more in this setup... as a 400 with 250.. my lamp moves as little as 10-15 cm from the top of plants giving much light and when it moves combined with a heat shield i get no burns.. and a little bill:cool:
 
Re: Papaya, hydro, 250 watts, light mover

High all :thanks: for all the attention

Its time for a small update.. this comming week iam gonna rebuild my closet a bit with a small clone/veg room adding capillary kit for 8 plants, a new exhaust fan and then i'll make the closet airtight with black/white cover plast:thumb:

I aint that great at sleeping at night so i got lots of time to kill so i made a drawing again:nomo:

And iam hoping to upload pics mon or tuesday

Re: Papaya, hydro, 250 watts, light mover

HAH copy paste all u like my friend:;):

I did make a setup putting the co2 outlead on the top rail but i figured the fan for a better way for distribution.

I believe that pll most do measure the amount of co2 lead it to the garden and not the actual amount in the grow space.. I am thinking of buying a co2 monitor anyone got a cheaper one than this?
