Arena-Plantage

[TheBudFather]

I'm growing some mothers separately at the min for clones.... i have, Chocolope, SSSDH, PPP, Lemon Skunk, Trainwreck, Buddhas Blue Cheese and LA Woman.

Ill post a pic of my young mums in action! Mums are grown in soil, 1 part House Garden Bat mix and 2 parts Bio Canna Terra Plus... Using Bio Bizz Grow, Bloom and Organic Meridian Molasses only...

... anyway catch up soon!

is that some kind of plant support by your arm in the center pic ?

 

[TheBudFather]

yeh when the plants get to a certain size and weight, these props are used instead of bungees, there about 12 inches long!

Great Setup TBF, Hesi nutes are great I used them in the past. Do you stick with indicas in your arena? Your fingers must hurt from taking clones

awesome set up

This spring i have plans to build one from pvc that will be about 16 feet high and 20 in diameter

Dammmmmmm T, that is one heck of a system you got their.
"If I ever write a book" on said subject. I'm gonna be in contact. 40+ years growing and I still see "New & Different" ways to cultivate our favorite plant. Cheers my friend.

Great setup can't wait to see it rock!

I dont normally stick to anything....whatever im growing gets stripped for clones! I usually take 325 clones and it takes me roughly 4-6 hours..... I normally end up with 1 or 2 slices in the finger from the scalpel, nuthin i cant handle!

Quick question...
How strong is the pump in your system?

 

[TheBudFather]

The pump i use is a Little Giant 7600lph.... i paid around £65 for it a few years back, very good little pumps! I have 2....1 to feed the system, and 1 to empty the reservoirs at the base of the system.... I never re-use the run off water, it gets pumped out...

Your kicking ass TBF, keep us updated. How big do you let your clones get before you flip?

 

[TheBudFather]

They will get 6-10 days veg! let them have a good settle in, make sure everything ticks properly...then bring on the madness!
fingers crossed for the next few months......
Here's a cpl pics of my ballasts set-up and Reservoir, Mothers are ready for a good sort out in the morning.... the outer plants will be raised & positioned properly on planks either side of the lights to make better use of the light! Ill add a picture i sketched a few months back which roughly explains the lay out of the room...
Thanks for the interest.... ill update here as things happen.....

Looking very good TBF, what way are you designing your room? 2 600s with plants at ground level and an upper plank? Have you ever done a v-scrog before? Setup is looking legit!

 

[TheBudFather]

Hi!

Hi!

I sorted out my Mom's last night! room's abit messy still, but i have them all positioned now! Also i changed the lights to red spectrum ready for flower (in about a week)... there is 3x600w down the middle... with 2 scaffolding planks raised either side of the lights to create something similar to a vertical grow!.... i think i will be taking cuttings very very soon...next 2-3 days maybe???mStarting to come together now! finally!

 

[TheBudFather]

I got up nice n early this morning (8.30) for the Rez seeds release....! Just to find out, the release isnt until 5pm.... so i spent my day taking clones....335 of them....
The ball is rolling!
I'm the proud new owner of some Sexy Chemdog/Sour Diesel's whoooooo!

here's a cpl pics of my new babies.....

 

[HYDROJUNKIE]

that is an awesome setup bro,...what kinda numbers do you get out of it? im looking to buy a similar setup but their insane exspensive,....what did you pay for it?,...in the states all ive seen is the colliseum which is like $3000 or so...

 

[Dr Dog]

everything is looking good

do you have the room for 300+ plants?

 

[TheBudFather]

If I were you, I would try making a vert system, for $3000 you could have the setup of your dreams.
You could stack buckets, or use guttering and pipework to create a very nice system....cheap!
Before i bought this system, I did a load of research on all of the vert systems...PI rack, Colosseum, Omega gardens...ect and found Arena-plantage to be the easiest to use, and best watering system out of the lot. also the cheapest!
