Current setup on page 6



So after going MIA for years, I decided it's time to start back up. This is going to be a Hempy bucket grow 70/30 perlite/vermiculite using Lucas Formula (8ml/1gal of FloraNova and molasses during flower) I am going to use the MaxiBloom later if this goes well.

I decided on going with a 3'x2'x5' Lighthouse Hydro tent. Tents sure have come a long way. This thing is nice and secure, although I think I am going to run into issues (I'll explain later).



The light is a Blackstar 240W LED lamp. My reason is, tight nodes, bushy plants, HEAT, cost. I didn't want to dump a lot of money on a Lumigrow quite yet since I haven't done this in awhile. This light should still give me plenty of yield for a personal stash. They are doing 18/6.



Exhaust is being done with a Can Max 6" fan with a Can 33 (not here yet :( ). Although I am completely worried about the filter fitting in this tent. I had no idea how big they were when I ordered it. I am also going to be getting the 6" insulated ducting tomorrow. Last thing I forgot.

Beans are a cross between Schnazzleberry x Blue Velvet. These beans are 5+ years old and I didn't know if they would even germinate. I had 20 of them and just threw them all in. Today I checked and 8 have popped (4 aren't out yet enough). Decided to start with 4! I also am being gifted 3 Sour Diesel clones this week, it's why I only wanted 7.

Nothing too exciting yet but since I have officially started, time to post the thread I hope you all subscribe and I will actively be monitoring this. Cheers to all who have helped answer LED / Hempy bucket questions! Hopefully this is a success.

DTF, GP73LPC, Seebeedee - thanks for the positive vibes and welcome!

I heard from the breeder, these seeds are actually Schnazzleberry x Blue Velvet.

Tent is running right under 80 degrees even with the shitty fan placement / no duct work yet. My RH is sitting around 31% though :( I put a cup of water in there but didn't seem to help that much. Think I will have to get a humidifier?

Taking a seat since this is basicly the setup I want to upgrade to :'D

you could use some pearlite in the bottom of the plants recipients and then have a tray with water under them. that would definely raise the humidity more than a cup of water. you want surface, more surface, more evaporation..

good luck! I'll follow!

You mean just a tray with perlite and water and just set the cups in that under the light?

[exploziv]

no.. because perlite floats over water..

i meant like 2 cm in the bottom of all the pots that would be in the tray, and then water in the tray (1-1.5 cm of water). perlite will be there to keep them from drowning.

Maybe I am not following The media is perlite/vermic already mixed in the cups.

I'll put some water in the tray though and put the cups in the water.
