This is my first post which will document my latest grow in a 4x4 tent. I have limited space and am only allowed to have 5 mature plants due to state law. I am using a Mars Hydro TS2000 light, and the tent is from Mars as well. I am growing four strains, Blue Dream, Tangerine Dream, Darlins Net 2, and Original Glue 4. These are all grown from clones that I got from the clone collective near me. I took cuttings from all of the plants so I can have mothers and clones ready to go for my next cycle in the tent. I just wanted to get these clones grown and put into flowering so I can have some product from my efforts.
My method of growing is using the Mass Producer coco buckets with the KISS method of fertilization. My coco buckets are 3.5 gallons with perlite in the bottom reservoir. The coco is a mix of Coco Loco mixed with plain coco coir and perlite. I use tap water as my tap is around 120 ppm out of the tap, and the maxi bloom and epsom salt brings the pH of the water down to 5.9 to 6ish depending on how much I add to the water. I havent been mixing it too strong in the vegetative stage, but I will be mixing it stronger in a few weeks when the flowering stage picks up.
I put the plants into flower yesterday, so the photos that I post will reflect that. I have been a little lazy getting this post together but will keep this diary updated on the regular. I also use mosquito dunks in my coco to kill off any fungus gnats that were appearing in the tent. I am posting my pictures below, and welcome any comments or tips, or constructive criticisms as I am fairly new to this. I grew a few times in the 2000's when I lived in California, but used 1000 watt lighting and a hydro setup, so this method is new for me, especially using the led lighting. I look forward to any questions or suggestions.
Thank You.
