This is going to be my journal for my first ever grow! I have been doing my research for many months and now that i have some funding to back my many desires im getting ready to put my first gals in the ground in less than a week!
The Setup
I will be growing with soil as this is my first grow and i want some exp. under my belt before i attempt a hydro setup. I'm also going to do it organic. I will use fox farms ocean forest and pearlite, at a 80/20 mix. As far as nutes go i will be using Iguana juice grow/bloom, Mother earth super tea grow/bloom, Sensi Zyme, and Bud candy. Im going to start with 2 sweet cindy clones from a close friend of mine.
I built a grow box out of 2 27 gallon rectangle totes with 2 200w CFL's each at 4100 lumen. Pictures to come. I plan on using this box for the first 2 - 4 weeks of my clones lives. A mini veg chamber so to speak. After there isnt enough space to keep both clones in the box, im to transplant one into my bathtub and leave the other to veg out in the box. My bathtub is lined with reflective material and hanging above it is a 1000w mh/hps closed hood. My goal with the bathtub is to do a Scrog and fill a screen the entire length and width of the tub with colas. Im not sure what to do with the other clone in my veg box. My idea is to keep it trimmed to fill the tote and then when my first plant is harvested from the bathtub, this would be ready to go right into 12/12 under the big light.
My next update will include pictures of everything, just working out the last of the details.
