I have read and learned on this site for years and it is time to show what it's taught me. I will spare you the history and just show where I am. 4k of double ended supplemented with LEDs and t5s. Half the room on foliage pro and blumats and the other half on drip rings and new millineum nutes. Bog sour grape, rare dankness blue haze train, blue dream, and Pineapple Express are the strains.
Hardware:
Friedrich Breeze 24k and pioneer 12k mini splits
Sante fe advance dehuey
Solis tek selectable ballasts
2 acde and 2 boss reflectors
Mars hydro 1200 led and Kissel 90w LEDs, more on the way
4 single bulb 4' t5s
Blumats are 1 per pot on a 55 gal Rez elevated 5'
Other set are black hole drip rings with all 1/2" tubing and a valve at every site to even the output. It runs for 2 mins. Per feeding with 18 sites putting out a half gallon feeding per 2 or 3 gallon pot. Little giant pump.
I keep day temps around 80, night time to 70, humidity is around 60, co2 at 1000. I veg under t5 to about 24" tall, 6-8 weeks. Up next I have some rare dankness venom og and some custom sour grape x blue dream and Pineapple Express crosses.

Blumat side

Blumat side

I have had good luck with blumats. I use drip clean at 30 ml. Per 50 gal. Just 5 ml foliage pro and 2 ml of dynagrow silica per gal. I just top it off when it needs it. Ph to 5.9-6.2.

I have the blumats inline filter at the tank and any runoff drains to waste. I adjust constantly if I am in town.

Pineapple Express in front blue dream in the back

Pineapple Express in front blue dream in the back

With a big Pex mom flowering out in the middle. The BD and Pex under the trellis are at 3 weeks and starting to set up. The new millineum really seems to allow you to pick when to stop stretch with their decision product.

I think the 1/2" tubing at each pot was a little excessive, I will eventually reduce it to 1/4" past the ball valve in hopes of making it easier to make output more consistent at each site.

The nutes

The nutes

This is the first time I have used either. It's been canna coco and then maxibloom since I switched to coco. The big Pineapple Express in the middle under led is on foliage pro. It has 3 weeks to go and is really getting nice and dense. I am going to follow this schedule from one of my favorite threads on the site for the new millineum side. So far so good.

Thanks, I am just copying the folks in here who have done the work. I just went to 2 feeding a day on the drip rings. It's taken longer than normal for them to get hungry but I suspect they will show the love. Trying azasol as a coco drench for the mites I have battled this last year. I have been able to control them but never eliminate them. I hope to see some seeds forming soon on some lower branches.

I put the moms I flower in the aisle between trays under led since they get big. I cut the pineapple ex and the blue dream mom has a few days left. The blue haze train is starting to establish itself and the next round is ready to be selected from the clones.

Thanks

Thanks

It's nice having people stop by to check it out. I am going to put a few more LEDs around the edge and a bare 600 mh hanging right in the middle as the temps cool down. I was checking on the sour grape in there and it's still hard to pick any kind of potential keeper out of the 4 but there is still 5 or 6 weeks for one to grab my attention. The blue haze train was fluffy last time but I think it was that it's light was too high. I lowered it to 36" off the tops and they are looking as they should. We will see how long they take. I didn't clone it so it will probably kill it and I will have to play the reveg game.

3 weeks to go

3 weeks to go

Things are bulking up nicely. The new milineum side is looking thick and delicious. Going to add some carbs and budswell to finish it out.
