Utilizing vacant space in tent
Hello all
![]() I currently reside in Colorado and do my legal (medical before, and now under new laws too) 3 plants, vertical lovin' under a 600 watt in a 4x4 tent. I usually have some vacant space around the edges, and the floor is lit up somewhat too, even though vertical shoots most light out to the sides. I keep seeing various kits that people grow herbs and such in on their kitchen counter tops, indirect sunlight from a nearby window. Could anyone recommend some plants that will grow on the floor of my tent, or possibly anywhere else that light is scattered that I can't train my real girls to? Herbs seem neat and like the right ticket, but idunno how much I'd consume or cook with them. I like lettuce, and I love peppers... Are these doable? Suggestions welcome, just trying to put a couple other things under my belt, utilize wasted light, and have some other little living greens to take care of. I had planted a ton of lettuce that I got in a cheap seed packet from Wal-mart in coco, but was using the same nutrients (and batches of water) that I was using for my girls. It was always really pale, and one day I forgot to water..and that was that. Never tried it, not sure how maxibloom (KISS formula) works for things you intend to eat, especially really watery greens. Thanks! |

Fellow Coloradian, fill up that space!
I've got peppers, 3 types of tomatoes, a big ol' bubble bucket full of herbs and lettuce/kale in my veg tent. I just ate a huge salad out of my growtent next to my med crop. Pics to come...

Peppers will do great in that scenario!

Do peppers need a different light cycle to grow in a tent?

Do you plan anything else besides peppers?
