Hello people of the RIU community!
I have been lurking around for over a year now, and really enjoy seeing all the different grow ops people have going. So why not share...
I have been a strictly veg grower for 2-3 years now, vegging for 2 other people, because I kinda lack the space to flower in my small studio apt. I had a corner that i never used, besides for storage of crap (snowboard, cards, bags of clothes), so i decided to clean the corner out, and setup a low budget home made plastic tent. Dimensions roughly 6'x5'x7'. The plastic was black/white poly left over from my veg room, so all i needed was some strapping, and a bunch of Duct tape... And in two days I had myself a makeshift tent.
Here is what I got for equipment in the tent:
Lumatek 600w hps
6" air cooled reflector
Carbon filter
6" inline fan
Co2 (runs for about 3 hours when the lights turn on)
4" inline fan(fresh air intake)
2 fans for air circulation
Soil: Formula 707
Water: Adjusted to 6.00
Nutes: Earth Juice (bubbled and mixed 24-48h before use) This is my first attempt ant using Earth Juice, and its been a challenge. I am still not sure what ratio to be using, so i started at 1/5 strength and have been slowly working my way up.
Strains: #1 Skunk, Trainwreck, The next two I crossed last summer... Bubblegum/Diesel, and Bubblegum/Blue Moonshine
I have always like the technique of scrogging, and came across a few V-scrog setups that had much more surface area, so I decided to give that a whirl. Using 1/2" pvc, a handfull of pvc joints, and some green fencing attached by zip ties, here is what i came up with.
More pictures to come in just a moment.
And please if you have ANY suggestions, Id love to hear your input. Thanks
