Almost done 1st. Pondering about 2nd

[crailtapper]

My first grow has 2 weeks to go! Considering options for my second.

I found a big 50L tupperware that could be used for one giant plant. But SOG seems interesting as well.

I have 350W of light. 3x3x7 of space. Not too much cash so upgrades are kind of out of the question.

All ideas are awesome !!

An ideal would be to try and arrange a small area to grow some vegetive plants in ,
that way your next attempt could already be underway.........
Or you could have clones on the go from your first attempt ... any pictures ?
just a thought......

I'm in sort of the same place you are. But the problem is we don't know what you are finishing so we can't give you advice about something along those lines or just tell us your idea of genetics etc... But it's certainly easier to do this in a linear fashion.

I'm working on dialing in my timing, canopy control (still) and a strain search this year. I also plan to add another light for veg and am trying to decide if T5 is sufficient for veg or if I should up my game to HPS or MH for veg.
Anyway good luck and start a grow journal.

Hey =)

I am currently using a 250w mh in my veg cupboard , i want to change it for a t5 unit as i just can't get enough fresh air in to cool it,
Before i changed from my T5 i didn't have the issue,
now i have to change back or drill through my ceiling .....

OH I too have a 250w MH! The only difference is mine has the self-contained ballast. What a stupid move that was putting the heat in the room and then no way to cool it sheesh! That's precisely why I'm thinking of going T5.

I have a little 2' 4 lamp T5 I use for seedlings and then in the height of summer I started using it for the moms and it works well. So I'm going for a 4' 12 lamp (I think). Then again I keep looking at just buying a copy of what I have in the flower room so in a pinch (equipment failure), I'd have a duplicate for backup.

im going to wait a while before i get another room for perpetual growing. im just not sure on style of growing.

main lining seems really cool. like one plant with 16 main cola's. seems like a lot for a second grow but im pretty confident in myself.

another idea is having 4 plants and doing a SOG. i live in canada so worse case scenario and i get busted, it would be a fine. any more than 4 and i face jail time.

its great to hear your plans for lighting and stuff but to be honest im really interested in growing styles. lighting and what not isnt going to change for a bit. cant wait to hear more of your ideas! thanks for all the replys! please rep!
