Hi, this is our second room, currently flowering 56 Dutch Passion Powerplant.

The room has a growing area of 8’ x 12’ with enough space to walk around three sides. We use DPM (damp membrane) for the floor to catch any run off. The irrigation tank stands in the corner with a ‘T’ feeding a loop of tropf Blumat drippers. The fan/filter is suspended on the ceiling and feeds directly out the roof. Not much else really to add here. Let me know if I have missed anything.

Soil Mix
Peat
Perlite
Rock Dusts
Dolomite Lime
Seaweed Meal
Coir
Worm Castings
N Guano
P Guano

Ventilation
System Air 8” (200mm)
Filter (250mm)
Inlet 25mm inline RVK
Dehumidifier

Lighting
6 x 600w Dual Spectrum HPS

Control
no control - this is being managed manually by heater and grsslin timers on inlet/outlet i.e. inlet is passive most of the time and comes on for 10 mins here and there, outlet is constant in the day and reduced speed at night. (a bit shoddy we know - just waiting for another controller)


Irrigation
Tropf Blumat x 56
200l Res on stand


only one pic for now due to ICmag's limitations....

Grapeman She is very easy to grow and a good yielder, very forgiving plant with amazing taste and smell, that's why she's been the main strain for a few years now. The three pheno's we have 2 are mainly sativa and the the other is still sativa but slightly more indica than the others with higher yields

I think we have a similar diesel pheno come through one of our back crosses. Can't wait to smoke it! ;) We also get the same itching with stinging nettle style bumps!

Cannatopia Thanks buddy, nice to know we are makaing people :D

Hi everybody,

just a messafe to say that I am waiting for my picture limits to increase so that I can upload more images. The ones above are of week 4 and frankly could be a lot better. The plant's are ok but the photo is a disaster. Just remembered that the plants we took cuttings of, for this room, ended up being a mix of Violator Kush and PowerPlant so there could be both strians in this room!!

they are just budget reflector's not adjustawing. I have just bent the middle ones out to spread the light. They will be 5 weeks on friday so yea not bad bud production! Thanks for looking!!
 
MAD PROPS Sr.! :tiphat:
You got what I would concider about the perfect size setup. Six 600w lights over one area. Sweet!
Did I read correctly your using Hps/Mh combo light bulbs? If so I cant wait to see how you do with them. I've seen them on Ebay but I can't say I've heard alot about them, I'd like to hear more from growers.

Again, sweet lookin' setup! Mind if I pull up a beanbag chair, spark one up and hang out for a bit? Hehehehe.......

PoopyTea - I hope so

Phog - Thanks - I hope the yield speaks the same. I try to have as little going on as possible (so there's less to go wrong) The watering is gravity fed, i avopid buying loads of expensive plastic sheeting by painting rooms white, the temp and humidity are controlled by a single unit. All the plant's food comes from the soil so there's no nutrients to buy!

FarmerStealth - The bulbs are Sunmaster dual spectrum.... apparently they give a more balanced spec so it's not necessary to change bulbs ever. (they only last 5 months). I have used them for a few frows with spectacular results. Pull up a chair wherever you like.... don't forget to watch my other thread (see my sig).

only 1 day until my pic limit increases... I may have to donate/subscribe to keep up with the the mag's limits!!!

Scrogger - Thanks for watching...

- I've over complicated things in the past which has led to expensive mistakes and a whole host of unforseeable complications! I love the PP because she's so forgiving and high yielding. This room i looking healthy but I think I may have not mixed my soil well enough as I am getting sporadic deficiencies throughout my room.

D9 - I think the bags are around 15 litres - to me that says 4 UK gallons so may be around 5 american gals??
