Let me start by saying I'm card holding state certified.
So like the title says this is the new room after a long road. Let me tell you a bit about how I got here. I'm not new to growing, last time I ordered seeds was from Marc Emory and it was Big Blue (like 2002). One of my best friends had brain cancer and we grew to constantly keep him in smoke. Long story short he died and I quit growing, we grew for 6 years. The grows were decent, or so I thought. We were using 400 MH and HPS but never CO2 or ventilation, we just used kmart ferts too.
Last year I got my medical card and now a few caregiver cards too. In the past year I have grown in:
Home made aero in a shed.... Rating SUCKED! (mites, uncontrollable temps,ext)
Switched to soil in a room in a basement (moved)... Sucked a little less. All i did was give the mites a ride from the shed to the basement on clones.
I moved again and started a room in a new basement and transported the freaking mites again. I was constantly trying sprays and crap and wining a bit then losing a lot. I had horrible webs, it sucked! What did I expect tho... I sealed a basement room with black plastic and only had 1 light, one fan and humidity through the roof. I said FUCK THIS and chopped down everything and started over.
Since I have drywalled the room, expand foamed all the cracks, silicon ed all outlets, vents and bulkheads, panted, installed a steel exterior door and bleach everything between all steps. I got a 3 gallon heavy duty sprayer I loaded up to keep shit clean.
Equipment wise I have a 8" Active Air fan hooked to a Green Air DH-3 for ventilation. I have 3 4" filtered air inlets to the room. I added a de-humidifier and a humidifier. I have the same 1000 HPS and a 8 bulb 4' t5 fixture. In the next 2 weeks I will be adding another 8" Active Air fan and create a closed loop to cool the HPS, 6' light mover, 4' tent and EZ Clone. I also plan to have CO2 by the time I flower. Now I should also mention I ordered seeds, Black Domina, Black Domina and the free Dynafem Critical +, Sweet deep Grapefruit, California Hash Plant and Power Kush. I threw out all old pots and dirt and got all new. I use ProMix and AN Grow AB and Flower AB.
I'm going to try to post some pics now. Please feel free to post as I want the best of 100 minds and not just my own.
