Square foot grow
- Thread starter 12and12
- Start date
Heres my 10" x 10" x 2'
I'll have 3 of these, maybe different heights:
2 x 26w 6500K
1 26w + 1 42w 2700k
2 42w 2700k
Every month I'll cut a clone, then harvest a plant, and cycle plants through the boxes. Smooth transition from veg light to flower.
I made a cardboard dark hood today to start swapping 2 2 week old plants through 12/12 under a single 42w. Theres 2 more I'm going to veg longer.
compact and low maintenance, perfect personal grow?

Notes: I transplanted yesterday to some 16oz cups with FF Ocean Forest and Perlite no Lime my runoff was in the mid 7s and it seemed no matter how much water I ran through them they still were at 7.5-7.7 with the transplant and watered with molasses pHd at 5.5 pH runoff is now at 6.8 so it seems to be closer to where I would like it.
Growth seems to be fine the edges and veins of Bettie and Clara have a purple tint to them and Alyssa is green are they just showing signs of pheno or is it starting to show a deficiency?
And the tips of the biggest one Alyssa are curling down .I dont know what do you guys think?

Garden tip: Perfect for containers and ready to use right out of the bag. Ocean Forest® is pH adjusted at 6.3 to 6.8 to allow for optimum fertilizer uptake.

yes there is alot of different lime out there,,,i myself like dolomite, as this is more of a slow release,,,as lime is more of a quick release,
it also pay's to take a soil sample to find out its ph, then u will know if its needed to be added to your soil,
there's no need to add it to soils that have already been buffed
happy growing and good luck

I like to see pictures of the veg stage. One less could have been a little better.
But over all 8/10 for effort
