Coco Cola's...hopefully - Growing in Coco Coir - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Hello my fellow ic mag members, I am starting a new thread for my new garden. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated as this is my first grow.

I started out building about six months ago.....

in my disgusting attic.

Now I finally have it about half setup

I have one 4x4 table with 2 400's

A 4x4 veg area

a little cloning spot

I am still in the process of setting up another 4x4
and adding 3 more 400 watter's

I also plan on adding 2 2x3 with 2 more 400's

why so many 400's well they were FREE and you can't beat that when your'e on a tight budget, they also help because I have no vertical space,
I little crawl the fuck around up there....it's a funny sight to see

I got a ten pack of nirvana's misty and wound up with 2 females that I'm hoping to find a keeper out of I have clones from both on the table and I'm flowering both of the original females right now

the one the left hardly stretches at all. one the right stretches alot. Flower's are forming quicker on the more indica pheno. But I guess it all really comes down to the smoke report.

I'm using the GH cocotek bricks, floranova grow and bloom, floralicious, and hygrozyme. I'm also experimenting with the bushmaster on a couple of the plants.

I can't gaurentee a good show with the fact that I'm a total beginner
But hopefully we can pull this off as a team.

Beautiful... I have grow room envy. Very nice start for a "beginner".

You should start a thread in the Diary section my man, and keep it updated...

Lotus- Thanks man....Swayze saving the world one day at a time is priceless

Stretch- Thanks and Big thank you for helping me out last trip to the infirmary and saving me from the BORAX

I guess this thread is in the wrong spot can the mods move it for me?

TEH BORAX ATTACKS AGAIN

hey dalton looking good and the best of luck. One thing is when starting out in the beer cups i would use non-transparent cups as roots are light sensitive.

The setup is clean...good job...seems you did your research as opposed to precarious "on the job training". Great setup, medium (love the coco

), and nute regimen....nice....

Good luck with your grow

Insomniac · 12-21-2006, 05:23 AM

haha I love that grow room! I wish I had an attic like that to play around in.

Dalton · 12-21-2006, 10:15 PM

Howdie yall,

Jessee, god I would have loved to of setup in the basement. I was almost passing out from the heat building this summer

The attic is a bitch but if theres a will theres a way.

Stretch- I couldn't resist I was laughing hysterically reading that boron thread yesterday. In all seriousness I don't think he is a day over 15 years old, reminds of the kinda kid with a beautiful girlfriend who just happens to live in some far off land so no one can actually see her. I will give him this he has good intentions and lots of dedication.

powdergreen- why I did not know that.. good to know I will switch it up on the next batch

thanks man

VT- good to see u pop in and I'm glad to see your back up and running. I will admit to some minor lurking on your threads. Best of luck as well and yes for anyone who doesn't know coco is awesome to grow in.

Insomniac- Thanks man I was gonna tell you to get some sleep but that would be just a little bit too f@#*ing corny.

So some questions, The trees seem to be dropping alot of leaves. I know some is normal but this seems excessive. I transferred them to those 5 gallon dishpans about 2 weeks ago when I started to flower them and the roots don't seem to be spreading out. They also have been under attack from fungus gnats for the past 3 weeks, I just recently got it under control with a no pest strip. They just kept making a come back when I was only using the mosquito dunks. So I don't know what the cause is.

As for the bushmaster 2 ml/gallon w/ floralicious @ 5ml/gallon for 3 days threw some wicked claws on the tree to right in pic. I think you just have to open the bottle near the plants and the vapor's would work (: It did stop the stretch but the increased bud production is yet to be seen.

Also with the trees the sides facing away from the light are lagging in bud production, would rotating every day help?

Thanks
