Strain Whore Extraordinaire!
Veteran
Howdy all

Been a while since growing, had a couple kiddos and a move which was my hiatus from growing.

Now that my kiddos are old enough to run around I have some freedom to start a grow back up.

I scored a 8'3"x8'3"x10' nice built shed similar to a $2k shed from home depot for 400 ish

It had 2 shelves but I took one down before taking pics

The purplr heirloom x blackberry are from seed the rest are from clone. I also have blackberry kush and jager in my stable.

With soil im running PBP grow, bloom, botanicare liquid karma, calmag, AN big bud, bud candy and bud blood (for the pineapple)

0 ppm RO/DI water stored in a food grade 55gal drum so we can drink the water aswell.

I still plan to get a ice box and ice box thermostat to completely seal the room to start some co2. I plan to grab 3 or 4 of those exhale co2 bags to try out but eventually i'll get a water cooled propane genny.

Thats it for now I have to jet out and check on some things.

As always and questions or comments are very welcome.

Cant go with out some pics of my past work

Thank you, I plan to rock this room for a while so I hope to get to 2lb/ light.

This first run will be to find what strains I wanna keep and run in the room.

I transplanted the last few into 7 gallon SP so I have 10 in 7gallon SP and 1 in a 5 gallon bucket and one with the 2 gal pot bottom cut off and set in a 3gal SP.

This run im also running out the botanicare PBP as next run will be rdwc and I like to run sterile in hydro I will keep cal mag in the mix tho.

I'll pic update weeklyish so I'll snap some in a few days after they get used to the tga supersoil/promix HP mix.

Im hoping they all explode some within 2 weeks or so so I can flip.

Ha I know me too dude! Buty moms got way too big for my 4x4 veg tent and I didnt have the heart to chop em and kill em off so into the bloom room they went.

Next run will be rdwc tho, either the system I have or an undercurrent system.

I also want to mono strain bloom next run too, I like even canopies.
