Hi boys and girls, I wanted to share with the world what I have been up to! Unfortunately there are no pics as of yet, things are still in early stages.
I have a 54cu ft room, well its really a giant box. It has 7 vertical units that all connect to an octagonal drain base, which goes back into my reservoir. And each of these 7 units has three sites in it!
I have two (hopefully) mothers 4 weeks into veg right now and are looking quite good.
I have a 28 site clone aeroponic clone box I built. the res and the box run off the same pump which is something like 600gph if I recall correctly.
The res is a little small, but it gives me a chance to either change it out or top it up every second day or so, its all we could work out with the size restrictions we have.
There are 4 120mm 44cfm fans blowing into the box at the bottom giving me 3x my cuft blown in per minute. I also have a 60cfm exhaust fan, just a single one that breathes through a carbon filter and up and out the top. this fan has three different speed settings, which I think will come in handy for odor control/db.
There WILL be two 1000watt units inside the box, but currently I have only funded the one as building this box took a toll on the wallet
I expect to hit a high respectable yield by the time the second crop is harvested. I need the first one to pay me back and any profits will be used for upgrades. then its smooth sailing from then on! I need to fund a co2 system, some ppm testers and a second light. so far I have spent $1500 building this thing. but it will do whatever I want it to.
I am currently growing northern lights x haze from seed, and they have not been sexed yet. I usually only do female seeds/clones so I have never really dealt with sexing the plants.
Any ideas on the best way to do this? assuming both plants are female (long shot), when its time to hit the clone box I want to be sure I know that I am cloning females only. I know its stressful on the plant to go from flower back to veg, but in my case it almost seems like its worth a shot? when I think they are ready to clone, I should flower them for 2 or so weeks and make sure its all good? I would have wasted enough time vegging these two already, I dont want to veg 21 clones to find out they are male.
help a girl out here living in alberta. I will use this thread to document my build. I'm glad I found this place
