This round, I'm growing in a new spot and VScroggin' some stretchy sativa-dominant hybrids! 1 gallon Root-pots (fabric like Smart only cheaper) Canna coco uncut running Canna Coco A+B for a while then 6/9 H3ad formula, through a manifold drip system ala Pico (Thanks buddy! )
No money for a buildout right away here so I'm running two smaller tents, a [4.6ft x 9.6ft] and a [4.6ftx4.6ft].
The bigger tent has 1800w, in the form of 2 magnetic and 1 digital 600w ballasts, running straight down the middle.
The first 3 weeks of flower were with only 1200w, and the third bulb was just added. I did this because the clones went into flower at about 9 inches or less, and didn't know exactly what to expect in terms of total canopy. Turns out there's enough room (i.e. ratio among plant numbers: bulbs: sq ft) so the big tent is now up to 1800 watts, simply by moving the two existing bulbs slightly towards the outside, and the new bulb in the middle.
This tent is really just a lazy scrog set up at about 2.5 weeks into flower mainly to brace the limbs for the soon-to-come branches'o'sticky, as well as the usual reason of evening up the canopy. In this case, however, I flipped the plants small enough that a scrog isn't as necessary to achieve a nice yield with these plant numbers.
The plants in this tent are a majority Blue Dream (local clone), second most populous being Headband (R****** P*****), and there are a few Casey Jones to bring the total to 20 in the 5x10.
Few photos from day 10 of flower:
But I thought it said 2800w? The other 1kw is horizontal (booo hisss!!) but I'll put up a few pics anyhow! Vanilla Kush, Bubba Kush, and one lone little Headband under a Super Sun 2.
More coming
