The Re-Invention of MileHighGuy

[MileHighGuy]

Time to take a deep breath, hold it... and exhale some strawberry cough

Ok, Now for the Story you've all been waiting to hear, I'll keep it brief... well, as brief as I can for a stoner.

I recently Moved, and much faster then I anticipated.

When a decision is made with a definite purpose, the universe conspires to make it happen.

I decided that I wanted to build a Large Greenhouse and raise Organic Hydro Tomatoes in Coco... Year Round and sell them locally for top dollar.

Once the idea was hatched and the decision was made, I was thrown a thousand opportunities and Ideas...

Long story short, I moved to a place in the country on about 3.5 acres. The house comes complete with a Huge 30x40 workshop.

I signed the lease and gave 30 day notice to my roommate.
For reasons that aren't important to the story I ended up moving within a few days of signing the lease and left the grow.

NOW, fast forward to today.

I need everyone's input.

I need to re-build and re-design a full new setup.

The goal is to get a quick run under my belt ASAP so that I can have smoke and fund more into the new grow room.

My local shop will be providing me with a Tent for free until I can pay Love my local shop.

I will be starting seeds and getting them ready for transplant under the T-5's that I currently have in the tent.

Without spending much money, and with little veg time.... what should I do????? for the most yield??

Here are some of the seeds that I just Received:

1 Skywalker (1 Hermie in a huge batch from a buddy)
10 Female Seeds C'99
5 Dinafem Blue Hash (Blueberry x California Hash)
5 Sweet Tooth #4 IBL from SOFT420 <-- Thanks again Mang
3 Paradise Seeds (Wappa, Nebula, Acid) All Fem
1 Auto AK
1 Purple Haze
1 Pineapple Express

and I can get lot's of clones if I need


I'm on the cheap for the first go.

I'm planning on buying the light once I need to flower. Most likely 1 600 this time and 1 600 next time.... but maybe I'll buy both 600's for this first flower.

I want to do a sea-of-green to pick my keepers for Mom's out of all these seeds.

Maybe a huge 3'x6' container full of cocoa and perlite and just transplant everything evenly spaced in there?

Maybe a shit ton of 1-2 gallon square containers to fill up my whole tent?

What in your opinion is the Cheapest way to fill my 4' deep 8' wide 7' tall tent?

Keep in mind I'm going for the shortest veg time possible so don't tell me to grow trees.

 

[who dat is]

I don't enough experience to contribute any good info but I wanted to say that this sounds really interesting right off the bat and will be keeping tabs on this one. Do it up!

 

[MileHighGuy]

Thanks Who Dat. It's been awhile since I had a Desktop Computer permanently installed with a good internet connection. Now, I'm set and ready to follow through on a complete Diary.

This should be boring as shit in the beginning, but, at least we can all witness how fast a grow can be put together starting with nothing. I Imagine I'll come across some strange coincidences helping this all serendipitously come together. So far, the grow store helping with the tent is pretty awesome.

K+... Fresh start, good luck to ya bro! Ill be keeping an eye on this Look forward to some updates. Welcome back. =)

I would pop seeds and get moms large enough to take a clone of each, run a sog with those rooted clones in little 4x4 black pots with organic soil feeding teas and such and keep the moms under flouros or cfls. I would use this run to get you a little smoke and let you select your keeper moms. Rinse and repeat with your selected clones. That is what I would do.

 

[MileHighGuy]

@ zenoonez

I'm going to run every seed out to look for different pheno's and smoke them all to find my favorite. I'll clone all of them and label extremely carefully. I'll then keep all the clones as moms until I select the best from my first batch.... then I'll narrow the Mom's down.

I'm thinking about going the 4x4 tent route, like you suggested and getting a really quality tent.

I'll veg with my current T5's and I'm most likely going to do a sea of green in Roots Organics Soil-less Coco mix then I'll flower under my first 600w with super sun 2 hood

I'm probably going to feed with compost tea and some Earth Juice Dry Sea Blast 3-26-22 and some bat guano to start with... although that's already in the mix... hmm I'm not 100% sure yet.

I will eventually turn the 4x4 tent into my mom room and veg room...

Then I will get a 4x6 or 4x8 to flower with 2 600's

Hmmmm.... Is hempy faster than coco? anyone done both?

 

[killerweed31]

sound good man, i have already up some of your strains..purple haze,pineapple express and auto ak with many other..so can't wait to see this 3d in action buddy, keep it up!!!
subs.

 

[SirSmokalot]

Lol sounds like u already know what to do man. It's obviously sog time I recommend coco when in small containers. U don't have to worry about over watering them. Flood or drip them. Take a lil time in beginning and u are pretty free the whole run to work on other things and added benefit of larger yeild from small plants than in soil.
Good luck.
I need to find a few acres myself!

 

[Canniwhatsis]

Congrats on the new place bro! :tu:


Looks like a good lineup of genetics to start from seed. Not sure what you need help with, you already got your shit figured out, get it set up and get it rollin!

 

[SpoCannabis]

What's your timeframe on getting everything setup?

 

[MileHighGuy]

Glad you asked SpoCannabis!

Today is Day one!!!!

Hmmm... Nothing special going on in this workshop garage.... right?

haha... Or is there?

Just popped some seeds!

Ready to Rock

Tomorrow all these seeds will go into peat pucks under a humidity dome. I predict 100% success ratio.

Then it's on to some Roots Organics Coco Mix.

The first run will be in a GrowLab 120 4x4 tent

I may end up Getting another Tent before flowering, so that I can cut clones and keep some of every plant until I determine the moms.

 

[MileHighGuy]

@ SirSmokealot - Drip system would make things easier. Gonna have to look into it.

I was planning on running come Compost Tea with Earth Juice Sea Blast Dry Flowering Nutrients

@ Canna - Thanks Mang!

 

[SpoCannabis]

Right on buddy!! Can't wait to watch everything progress and come together!!

 

[camoxnhx]

[silver hawaiian]

Ah HA! Found the new digs. This will be awesome.

MHG, so happy for you on the new setup! That workspace looks f*cking awesome.

I'm with the others - I'd go SOG styl-ee this time around.

 

[MileHighGuy]

@ Silver - Stoked to see you round here as always, thanks for the kind words. I cannot WAIT to get this shit perpetual.

 

[MileHighGuy]

All my seeds are in peat pucks, under a dome on a heating mat and doing well.

I've got a few poking through the surface, tomorrow I'll have my first few standing up and I'll snap some boring pictures.. haha

 

[budman678]

[MileHighGuy]

Any Coco Heads around here?

Thinking about a few things.

I'm going to buy a bag of the Roots Organics Coco Mix.

But I also want to try my own mix and compare.

I'm thinking about 20% Earth Worm Castings and about 20% perlite, the rest coco....

Anything else I should amend? Is this a waste? Should I just go straight coco?

I'll be feeding with Compost tea as well.
