Mr. Sparkle
It's been awhile, but figured i might as well get a new thread going for a few reasons that ill get into in a bit, typically i hid off in the micro section if you don't know me, and or was on other forums but on to the grow.
Currently i run a Dual Chamber closet setup, its around 3 SqFt or 0.28m2 a side, my overall height from floor to roof is 28.75" or 73cm
I like to run in coco, i have some basic DIY auto watering systems, and typically run autoflowers well at least for the last while, and i currently run Megacrop for nutrients.
Lights this round are some of my current lm561c strips "solstrips" running at 70 watts a side on a reduced 3 bar array setup, i was just currently running 5 bar arrays and up in the 100-120w range, but i think i could get by with less.
Saying that the arbitrary 70 watt point was chosen because i was approached by Hydro Grow LEDS to Test out there new XB70 watt units once then become available. So this is a precursor to me doing a grow thread with them, and a good start to show what im doing now.
Currently this is just a half play half trial run, but it will still be a high yield run in the end if things go well, i expect to be somewhere in the 1.5+gpw range when they are done, and i'll be keeping the plants as best i can through out instead of my more normal habit of tossing the weeklings when im breeding or running through a lot of seed, but i will be tossing plants if the others are competing for the same space which they will be, so yeah just gonna try and grow some happy plants and see if i cannot push things a bit to give myself a good baseline to see how these "soon to be released" HGL lights compare. If they work they work if the don't they don't, only one way to find out
Alright picture time
Here's a shot of the outside, all stealth like, its made from Ikea parts, and is built in such a way that it draws air in from the floor to the back and evacuates up into that middle chamber where i have a 6" carbon filter that is exhausted through a AC Infinity t6 to the left, overkill for the size of my space but i wanted to be able to run my extraction fan on low speeds for noise purposes, and it works as such.
Inside Shot from Yesterday showing the layout.
And individual shots of the Left and Right sides.
Currently on the left side im running two Cream Mandarins, and two GT SBR's (Ghost Toof x Sugar Black Rose) which are from a grow bud on here "ReikoX", and on the right a bunch of DarkDevil/DarkSparks from a few different generations of my own crossing/seed making, and a lone TDC which is a cross as follows ((Think Different x Dark Devil) x Cream Mandarine )
Currently Day wise we are sitting at Day 5/9/15 respectively for the different groups.
