First off, I live in LA county and I have my Medical Marijuana Card. I recently decided to start growing. So, I did my homework and research and found a system for sale that had everything I wanted and than some…
This is what I purchased for $1000.
600 Watt Lighting System
-Galaxy Ballast with Hortilux 600w HPS Bulb and Sunlight Supply Inc. Reflector –
-Sun Master Cool Deluxe 600w Metal Halide Bulb
“Sun Hut” Enclosed Greenhouse with Silver Interior (dimensions are about 3’ x 4.5’ x 7’)
6” Inline Fan
6” Ducting
4” Vortex Fan
4” Ducting
Carbon Filter Can 9000 w/4” Flange
C.A.P. HUM – 1 Humidity controller
C.A.P. REG – 1 CO2 Regulator
Frigidaire FAP09EP1Z Stand Alone Air Conditioner/Dehumidifier/Fan
Vicks Cool Mist
4” Rotating Fan for Circulation
Window Fan with 2 fans for Maximum ventilation
Ebb and Flow Water System
24” x 41” Tray for Plants
25 Gallon reservoir for Plant Feed
2 EcoPlus Submersible Pumps
4 – 5 gallon water jugs
Clay Pebbbles
8 baskets for plants
Coconut Fiber Mats
Digital Thermometer
2 digital Timers
24 hour Timer
Eutech pH – 1 Tester
Euntech/Oakion TDSTestr PPM Tester
I think I got a good deal, Everything appears only used once... please let me know what you think…
I have tried growing several times when I was younger and never had any luck. This time I want to do it right, and will stop at nothing until I get it right. The guy/kid I bought the equipment from didn’t clean it; so I’m currently in the process of doing that – should take a couple more days and another couple of days to learn how to use the Timers, Humidity Controller, and testers. This is a bit over whelming and it DOES seem like rocket science especially when it comes to Nutrients, Room Humidity and Testers.
According to the Growers Bible –
I purchased the following:
Nutrients.
General Hydroponics – FloraGro
General Hydroponics – FloraBloom
General Hydroponics – FloraMicro
General Hydroponics – pH Down
General Hydroponics – pH Up
General Hydroponics – pH Test Indicator
Clonex
Rockwool Cubes
And a bunch of miscellaneous stuff gloves, brushes for cleaning, zip ties, Citric Acid, bungies, Rockwool. Spent $200
So, everything all together is now 1,200.00 – (I’m going to be eating Mac & Cheese for next 4 months –seriously!)
Now that you have the low down, here come the questions…
I’m not sure how to set this all up so I will be posting questions here and starting this total beginners Thread.
On the coconut fiber which side goes up? Smooth or rough?
Is there anything else I need besides the clones?
Is it o.k to use bleach on the inside of my tent? the guy I bought it from said he had a pest problem with his last and only grow - the pests came with the clones he bought from a dispensary.
Anyway, Ill post more pictures at the end of the day - for now back to work. please feel free to comment or assist me in making this work - it would be greatly appreciated! Peace. I posted more images in my album.
