Hello there.
I was growing autos for first time and my first grow. I failed so bad. I got 10g per plant (two plants and total 20g) after 9 weeks under 1000w hps. I didn't gave any nutrients first 4 weeks and then i overwatered few times. So they are pretty small. Autoflowers not forgiving any mistakes. So i will go for photoperiods which is you can control many things better than autos.
So i will write what i have now and want to know your opinions about veg time and other things.
Grow Tent: 150x150x200cm (5x5x6.5 feet)
Pots : 6 gallon fabric pots (22 liters)
Strain: 6x Big Bud XXL (photoperiod)
Nutrients: Advanced Nutrients Perfect PH Grow, Micro, Bloom
Light: Philips 1000w HPS
Ballast: 1000w Magnetic Ballast
Cool Tube: Yes
Intake Ventilation: 180 m3 S&P TD-160 Silent Mini
Exhaust: 580 m3 S&P TD-500
Carbon Filter: 665 m3 carbon filter
So that's my setup. Now here is my questions.
1. How long to veg in 6 gal pots with 1000w HPS? I am thinking about 6 weeks of veg + SCROG net. Is that okay?
2. Can i easily hit 0.50 GPW with 6 weeks of veg with only using Advanced Nutrients PH Perfect Grow, Micro, Bloom?
3. I have heat issues. Even with 580 m3 exhaust fan, it's still 30-35C inside grow tent when it's closed (RH is between 30 at day times, 60 at night times). Is that really big issue? It might go higher at summer peak (Jun, July, August).
Thanks.
