400w Flowering Tent - Clone / Mother Tent

Set Up to date:
Flowering room open. Soil at this stage, working towards hydro.

Looking up into the tent. A small oil fin heater, thermal retention works better compared to a bar/element heater - well, there is a more controlled constant temp, put it that way. 150mm inline axial fan on dimmer controller, pushing air air into hood and out - duct is straight. 150mm axial industrial fan controlled via variac pulling air through the charcoal filter you can just see between hood and heater.

Exhaust Axial fan buried in 44 gallon drum filled with silencer batts to the brim, one word -
silent.

Temperature control centre, lol............stc 1000 2 relay digital control units. Flowering room temp, mother room temp and clone heat mat temp.

Clone chamber, with a few strawberry plants ready for planting outdoors soon. Single Grolux fluro tube. Heat pad controlled via above photo.

Mother room, 150w Hps (yeah yeah). Bar heater (swapping to oil fin this weekend), exhaust fan etc. White Skunk from feminised seed - and one other random NZ indica/sativa mix (very minty?).

6 random nz - about 5 weeks to go.

4 x small collars ready in 2 weeks according to calendar days. The one on the right that looks different is a White Skunk from seed, about 8 days into 12/12.

Full shot of flowering room. The 6 in front have just gone in, room for another container also, so could have 4 x containers holder 6 plants each. OR, each container can hold 8 plants each - so 24 or 32 collars? That is if I can master the cloning technique for a perpetual grow.


So - let loose with any comments, upgrades ideas - tell me if you see something wrong - live and learn.

P.S - Dead smack in the middle of winter here, hence the wool blankets over the tent, works a treat a little insulation factor.

I am surprised no one has commented. Is this site dying or something? No one can improve on the above setup, give some hints, or experience?

hey bro lookin good. nice and clean and tidy i like that. if i was u i might veg out a little bit longer, let those babys stack on some branches before putting them into the flowering room. if ur concerned about height then just prune or LST ! keep us posted man im whatchin

Trying to take taller clones to combat the no veg time. if I can get the rockwool cubes to work - jiffy pots are being used at the moment, while taking a few cuttings in RW at the same time - but are taking 3-4 weeks to get roots, compared to the 1 - 2 weeks max with jiffy pots?


10L square pots - brought 8. The old pots in the mother room were all different size and shapes.

So rearranged the mother room and transplanted them into their new home, trimmed roots while there. 50/50 mix of organic soil and perlite. Still have one more to replant, but leave that one for another week or two to establish.

Finally a full house - well just about, could fit another 9 in - that will be 8 per tub.

Day 65 for the four sticks, while the forked White Skunk from seed is on day 33. Be very surprised if ready by day 45 as suggested.

Another close up shot of above arrangement.

These six are on day 50. Bigger than the above 65 dayers, these ones were taller clones.
