hello all,
tha name is mAc, i'm finally got all my gear collected, n my box built but not completed. i'm open to opinions, n comments to improve my setup. i'm not very good with intro, soo i'll just get right to it...
tha Grow environment:
NGB style cab but supersized
7 feet tall, 7 feet long, n 3 feet deep

flower section is 7ftHx4ftLx3ftD
veg(mother/clones) section is 3ftHx3ftLx3ftD
utility section 2ftHx3ftLx3ftD
intake/air section 2ftHx3ftLx3ftD


box was framed with 2x4 then i used 7/16 osb plywood to wall it up, caulked up all the seams n cracks, n paint my interior grow sections white...

tha Grow Gear:
Light- 800Watt Sun Systems Vii (400hps + 400Mh on 1 ballast)
1x 4 bulb Sunleaves Pioneer Jr. T5
2x 2 bulb Sunleaves Pioneer Jr. T5

600gph Sunleaves Air Pump
n some other random essientials needed to grow with.

tha Seeds:
got some mixed indoor strains from BC buddepot, n Nirvana going right now in some soil mix(15 seedlings), still gotta sex them n pull the males n keep tha moms
then i got Nirvana's White Widow seeds waitin to be germed, once i got my enviornment perfected.

tha Plan:
i wanna go with a simple bubble bucket system for now till i can get all the parts need for my Recirc-Dwc. i wanna go with 6 of the 5 gal buckets in the flowerside. i wanna try n get a harvest every 2 months. need to build a bubble cloner, already got my veg tub setup.

So its been chaos the last 2 weeks, i moved my clones over to flower (12/12) n two of them went hermie o(>.<)o so in my last ditch attempt to keep my bud numbers high i thru 4 x-mother plants into the flower side (4clones n 4 x-mums) n kept two moms in veg. Living in the Desert Sucks A Big one when trying to keep temps. in check even with Co2 added to the mix its pretty hott, n humidity very very low,n lights on only at nighttime. been adding frozen gallon jugs into the box every 12hours to add some moisture n coolness in the air seems to help some. plants lookin great, double in size over a short two weeks lil hairy buds showing on top :D n they are some thirsty thirsty biotches. seems about every other day i'm watering or topping off. LoL my guess is this comes from the hott temps. its cooling itself by drinking a gallon a day. LoL its CraZy!! will post some pics tonight when lights come on! Till then Grow Safe! Be Safe!
