Hello,
I am off, i have everything i need to get on my way. I have been going for about a month now, i started from seed with some bag seed. they are now about 1 to 2.5 feet tall. they were growing under floros and cfls. Now i have added a 400w hps. I will list my what i have and what i've planned, enjoy. I can use all the suggestions i can get, i am a first timer with indoors and hydro.
I am using :
a 10 gal tote with an air stone and a 30 gph pump split into 4 net cones for my mother plants, the pumpis 15min on and 15 mins off 24/7.
a 1 gal container with a submersible heater and an airstone hold my clones. I have 8 spaces for clones that accept 1.5 in micro rockwool cubes.
an identical tote as i use for my mothers to put my clones into after they are a couple weeks old until there roots are more developed.
an 18 gal tote with an air stone hooked into a 6 way 42 liter per minute air pump. this also holds 4 net cones. I use this tote as a transitional tote to veg them before i put the plants into flowering.
I have 2 totes identical to the transitional tote that i use for flowering, these also run off the 6 way air pump.
I make my clone under 6500k cfls.
My mother plants, and veg plants are under 5 florescent tubes(2cool and 3 warm), and i have 6 other 6500k cfl's in a reflector i will soon be adding.
my plants are flowered under a 400w HPS with a homemade reflector with a remote ballast located in separate cabinet.
My veg and flower rooms are 2'6"x4'6"x5'(WxLxH).
my clones live under a hung cabinet and a 2'x2'x2' area
I use General Hydroponics Flora series 1/2 strength for flowering, vegging, and clones(follow the charts on the bottle and divide by 2) i add super thrive to my veg plants and clones
I use red garden lava rock and rockwool plugs for a medium and 18 inch black knittign sheets rolled into a cone withthe bottoms cut out for a net cup.
I have a regular 12" box fan venting my clone/veg room, and i leave the door open for fresh air during the day, closed up at night.
I have a old large squirrel cage fan for my flower room, right now i use a passive intake, but i am looking into an intake fan(open for cfm suggestions)
I have a 24"x6" homemade carbon filter on my exhaust.
I use black duct work and made some 90 deg turns to light proof( it a little long right now, i will be shortenign it when i get my intake fan)
i used a 2x2 frame and panda film to separate my veg and flower room
I am running my hps at night to help battle high temps during the day.
I think i have covered everything, but i am open for questions and suggestiions.
Will post pictures when i get back home later.
