Hank's 1k SOG Coco DTW Tent

Hello everyone! Like some of you I have been lurking on IC for a while now and feel that I have read and gathered enough information to start my own thread. Inspired by Cannabeans SOG in a tent I went out and purchased a 5x5 Gorilla Grow Tent where ill be throwing a 1000 watt light and 64 plants in a 4x4 table w/ co2. I was thinking of ebb and flow at first but after reading some DTW methods I decided to go that route. Ill be using the full Canna line with some othere additives here and there. I quite dont have everything setup and am still piecing everything together. What i did just get were 36 Ultra Sonja seeds from Grindhouse through SeedBoutique.com As a little surprise they threw in 5 Med-Mans Headband and his Special Kush as a freebie. I really dont know what to expect with the US since they were pretty cheap at the time and i felt like 36 seeds is a starting place to hopefully find a suitable cut. So please ask away I know I will be through this grow. Ill post pictures and updates as they come. Thanks for checking out my grow.


Thanks Hank

Thanks for stopping in Canna. Yes 64 plants. Im going to have 4 plants every square foot. Im just using these 5 1/2 x 5 1/2 square pots. The pots hold just under 3 liters of coco. My veg time is going to be way short. Maybe 10 days or less. Im hoping to get about 15-20 grams per plant. Not much off of one plants but in numbers it adds up. Thanks

He said he is running a SOG.He will be using 6 inch pots by the math. Or just a bed. And if you are getting 18 pounds off 1000 watt with 3 week veg...........Lets just say i'm glad I have my work boots on. Shit just got real deep.Or did you mean per light?? Sorry if I misunderstand what you were saying.As you were Hank. I'll be watching.

Lol I think he meant 2 pounds per 1kw, not 2 pounds per plant :tiphat:

each states laws are different, but from what i understand the more plants you grow the more trouble you can get into. say u get 1 pound of smoke from 64 plants and i get 1 pound from 6 plants we both get the same amount of smoke but if ever caught, who would be in greater trouble. i hear in Californian its 12 plants for personal use that your allowed to grow, not sure it that's correct. even thought i don't live in cali i try and grow by there restrictions as a peace of mind. hopefully a judge would be more easily conceivable with a smaller operation, just something to think about

Coco dtw is what I have been rocking for the last few grows and love it. Tried it all over the past 20 years and this is my fave. But I grow in 5 gal airpots 2-3 per 1k and get +-2lbs per 1k light. That's like 12-16 per plant, albiet veg is at least 2 months.

My 2 cents is that that many plants all with drippers is gonna be a lot of hassle. I can see a dozen maybe 2 dozen per light, but 64 is a shit load. I think ebb&flow would be pretty sweet with coco and lots of plants! No fucking around with tubes and drippers for every plant. I was just talking to a buddy about doing 1 gal airpots w coco in a deep ebb&flow table.

I'm ready to see this in action!

Hey guys I'm still working on this setup. At the moment I'm looking for suitable strains that would fit.
Hey medicalmj I was thinking of E&F system but I want to keep the Rez out of the tent. I'm still going with the drip method I just have to tinker with it for a little bit. Thanks
