Hey all i've been around for a while, i grow for personal med use with led's but now decided to step up to hps. I will keep a detailed diary, updating daily and pics, i'll include a grow and smoke report at the end, along with my side projects. Ok my seeds are enroute, barneys lsd, pineapple chunk and pineapple express auto, 5 each from herbies. i also have two seedism blz bud sprouts i am trying to save after the other half gave them a drowning so i transplanted from the coco into my unused aerogarden with air stones to try salvage them, we shall see. Have k2 clones ready (nl x ww), vortex, querkle, chernobyl beans on order and a jack herrer clone being babysat atm. Plans for the room are 2 600 watt hps to start with, Inline fan and carbon filter, ac and a sealed cupboard for my t5's as a veg/bonsai mother area. The measurements of my room are 2200 deep, 2900 wide but only 1800 high after lining and insulating. With such limited height, i've considered a few options, hanging the lights and scrog/lst, flip early, do a low table sog setup or two shelves similar to hobbes grow lab study and continue to ccob train them under a light mover? Or even still set up two small vertical cages using pvc and nft around the two 600s?My experience lies in making my own soil or using osmocote plus organic in air pruning hempy buckets so i would prefer to stay with soil but am more than willing to work with some pvc and pumps. I'm looking to maximise my yield while still retaining the quality i currently get and run multiple strains at one time, eventually setting up for perpetual harvest. In your opinion what would be the best use of this space? Whatever way i pick, i plan on pheno hunting and breeding some of these 'elite strains' and introducing some new ill to my parts. Well that's about it for now, any advice will get +rep but come join the ride! Ben
