I know.. it sounds a bit crazy that I'm trying to pull off 8 or 9 plants in this single tent, but from what i've seen, it will work.
First off, I'll introduce myself by saying I've never done this, but i've been in the business long enough now to know that this is what I want to do to allow myself to enjoy the high life longer and higher than just "purchasing" it, if you feel me.
My buddy and I are getting this project going with the past experience of his closet 2 plant setup he had going back in the day. So with a solid foundation, research on the internet and countless hours of rollitup browsing, I feel we have the knowledge and experience to pull this off.
Setup:
(1) 4x4x6 Mylar Cabinet Tent - plenty of exhaust holes and ventilation
(1) 600watt HPS light w/ air cool tube setup
(4) 6" inline fans, two for the light and two for ventilation, one sucking air in, the other blowing air through the ducting
(1) 4 foot Oscillating Tower Fan for circulation in the tent
(1) 6" Inline Fan/Carbon Filter combo
(1) Boxfan on the side to filter more in through a side panel flap for cross ventilation
(8/9) 3 Gallon Grow Bag
(10) Bricks of CocoTek coconut soil
(3) GH FloraGrow for the nutrients
Seeds!
So I intended for three rows of three, but with the oscillating fan and the carbon filter sitting in the tent I may only be able to fit 8. I plan on trimming and tying down these beautiful girls because I realize for maximum output 8 or 9 plants in a 4x4 under a 600w may be pushing it, but thats what Im all about.
I ordered 15 seeds total, 5 of each strain of feminized. I plan for
(3) C99 Hybrid (xline)
(3) Blueberry Skunk (flyingdutchman)
(3) Critical Jack (dinafem)
In the long run I plan on taking amazing care of these girls and am hoping to at minimum (and correct me if Im wrong, Im guestimating off what harvests Ive seen from you guys here at rollitup) harvest 50g/plant up to 90g/plant.
Anyone is welcome to comment and help, Im sure Im going to run into some problems along the way, if anyone sees anything dire Im missing now, Im germinating within a week and plan on posting updated pictures in increments of 7 days, so please let me know before I start so I can get it! Hopefully after pictures of the initial setup you guys will get a better understanding on what it should look like
One Question before I start!
-Having serious problems keeping the temp IN the tent to a cool medium. I am stuck around 85 at night and around 90 during the day, I would preferably have it 80 during the day and 70 at night, given I understand this doesnt completely correlate with an early veg light cycle, but regardless, a bit too hot
Any suggestions? Something like an air cooler/chiller?
Not trying to spend too much on this last thing, but will do whatevers necessary
