Hey ICMAG thought I would share my current grow. I dont post much, just usually watch and admire the amazing talent on this site. Im still very new to growing but have 3 harvests under my belt. Ive been using the scrog method with great success. My cab is tall, but lacks depth, and width, making a flat scrog screen very small (maybe 12 in by 20 in) I then made a half pipe/ v scrog, and then I enclosed the sides and flipped my cooltube vertical and there you have it.
As stated the light is a 250 hps in a bake-around cooltube. The cab is cooled by a 6in vortex on a contoller (overkill I know) and scrubbed through a can 33 filter. I also have a couple computer fans for intakes. Temps vary usualy 78 at the base of the pots, and maybe 82 at the tops sometimes higher, sometimes lower, but pretty consistent. Humidity is 35-40 %.
Growing 2 aurora indicas both feminised. Have grown her before and she always outperforms her competition. Better, faster growth, bigger denser buds, and of course great smoke. Growing in 3 gal smart pots with bcuzz coco, with some hydroton. I dont usualy "cut" my coco as I dont think its necessary, but came up a little short on coco so I added some hydroton I had laying around. Nutrients are HG coco line with multizyme, also using canna rhizo, PK 13/14. Plants have been doing great. One seems to be laggin a little behind in bud development, but is still drinking alot and seems healthy. I just think its a diferent pheno, maybe a late bloomer, she smells amazing though. I believe I vegged about 6 weeks from seed. They are now 6 weeks into flower. Once their res is empty it will be straight water from now on.
I have my pots suspended allowing me to water with runoff and not having my plants sitting in waste water.
Here you can see the hole for the cooltube. This allows me to raise and lower my light as much as I want. It is crowded though and you can see some light bleaching.
Thanks for stopping by. I will try and keep you posted as this grow comes to a close.
