Hello RIU,
This will be my aproximatly 6th grow heres the details
8 strains:
Kandy Kush (not sure of breeder) reg seed (either DNA genetics or Reserva privada)
Critical Kush, Barneys Farm. fem seed
blueberry gum, G13. Fem seed
Fruity chronic juice, Delicious seeds. fem seed, onto clones now.
Blue cheese, Big budah. fem seed, on to clones now.
White widow x Big bud (unsure of breeder) fem seed. good chance the breeder is female seeds but not 100%
Blue OG, G13. fem seeds
White lavender, G13. Fem seed.
ok so the WW x BB and the Kandy Kush were a gift from a good friend i met on RIU some time ago. the rest i ordered from the tude, the blue OG and white lavender were UFO freebies.
Equipment:
1x 1000w Apollo HID digital dimable ballast.
1x cool tube
6x4 grow room, i built the room
32x32 cheap chinese grow tent.
360w CFL DIY fixture.
600w apollo digital dimmable ballast (coming soon when tax refund gets here, right now the CFL fixture is in the then this light will be going in)
aircooled hood, cheap chinese got it with a cheap 400w light kit i ordered and the ballast is jusnk now.
i am using a booster fan to cool both rooms, 240cfm i believe
ducting and all that other shit.
i have alot more equipment but its all general shit like rockwool and propogators, fans blah blah blah..not worth listing every thing. I plan on upgrading to CO2 soon and getting my charcoal filter in place once taxes come in i will be dumping about another $1000 on equipment should make my grow complete.
Medium/nutrients:
Fox Farm Happy Frog soil. Was using ocean forest but you get 25% more happy frog for same price so i switched.
General Organics GO lineup.
Espoma garden Lime for PH stability
Espoma garden tone as a organic amendment.
Fresh worm casting, i made a worm farm and they produce my castings.
Perilite, right now i have black gold brand but have used all different brands. i try and go with organic perilite and stay away from MG perilite.
clonex solution for cloning.
general hydroponic bloom nutrients (for a hydro project i will be trying soon, DWC)
PH up and down again for the hydro project i will be trying soon.
and i think that about covers it. I just harvested a fruity chronic juice and blue cheese plant on friday. ended up with around 5 oz of dry material, 2 ox from the blue cheese and 3 from the fruity chronic. I know i can do better than that. i made a couple mistakes by flowering way too early and did not utilize the space in my room well. I have up and coming around 14 plants from seed and clone that are currently vegging under the 1000w MH and my flowering plants which are 2 fruity chronic clones and 3 bagseed plants (these will be the last bagseed plants grown in my grow, the guy that owns the house where i am growing wanted to grow his own so i said go for it. from now on he will be given clones) are all under the 360w CFL fixture in the 32x32 tent and are doing just fine up there and will soon have a nice 600w HPS, they will probabally finish out thier cycle in that tent as i will be doing some training in the 6x4 and flipping the light to flower all the vegging plants at the same time.
before i flip i will be taking clones of everything and filling up my veg room again to do it all over again. I would eventually like ot get a nice perpetual style grow going so im going to try and leave room in the 6x4 for upcoming clones.
i am going to be starting something new with my feedings and that will be putting my general organics nutes into a AACT to brew instead of just watering them in. I will start my brew on thursdays and feed on saturdays. 1 feed a week for plants 2+ weeks into flowering. probabally plain water for veg plants untill they show me they need some more food. the soil i use is pretty rich in organic fertilizer so they should be good to run out a 6-8 week veg cycle without any extra nutrients.
i use 1/2 a bag of espoma garden tone to every 2.0 cu yd bag of happy frog, 1/4 of a bag of perilte and 1 cup of garden lime. this is the soil mix i have been using the past 3 grows and it is doing me well. i want to try making subcools super soil one day but not today.
The plan:
so the plan is pretty simple, im going to build some shelving in the grow room, LST the seedlings and ScROG the clones. i currently have 3 fruity chronic juice clones and 2 blue cheese clones. they will be going into the same screen. all the seedling plants will go onto the shelving so that they can compete with the scrog plants for light.
heres some pics of the room i built and the tent.
Here are some pics of my old setup with the 6x4 flower and the tent veg, i was running out of room fast in the veg tent and my flower room looked empty so i did the switcheroo. these pics are a few weeks old and in the flower room the 2 biggest plants are gone now,
heres som epics of after the switch and now vegging in the 6x4 under the 1kw MH and flowering under the CFL rig. and some pics of the DIY CFL rig i made a year or so ago.
and last but not least a few pics of my last harvest.

and a nice selfie pic so you guys can see who your talking to.
some of these pics are a couple weeks old, im going to go ahead and get some nice updated photo's later on tonight. I currently have 2 fruity chronic juce clones that are 2 weeks into flower, a bagseed reveg clone that i lollypopped and supercropped about 3 weeks into flower. and 2 bagseed seedlings 1 is on week 1 of flower the other has not shown sex yet.
so along with some good training on the veg stuff i should have some good bud porn coming up shortly hope to see some new faces as well as some old friends here. feel free to post whatever you want but lets keep it mature and clean guys. i have no issues with people posting thier opinions and debating over methods but i dont like name calling and childish crap. If someone is incorect in thie rposting feel free to correct them in a mature and informative way.
