What's up guys? Just getting started out here on ICMag...have been a member of PlanetGanja for awhile and used to be on OG as well.
Finally decided to upgrade my equipment. Was running a 150 HPS for awhile, with semi-okay results. Got my refund check from school, and decided to invest some money in better equipment.
First pic's of the setup. Running a Hortilux 1000w HPS in an Xtrasun Aircoolable reflector, powered by a 1000w non-convertible sad Hydrofarm SG Magnetic Ballast.
Next up this is the carbon filter I bought. It's a 26" x 12" Hydrofarm Carbon Filter. 2.5" of Activated Charcoal all around (if I remember correctly).
The fan I got is a Vortex High Output 452 CFM blower. Shit's powerful haha.
Finally, here's a shot of how we hung the light. Used porch swing hooks, dog chain, and a couple of those spring loaded clips that people use for their keys.
Plan is to build a room, 11 x 15. Going to run an 8x11 flower room and a 6x11 veg with a 6" wall between the two. For right now, we're going to box off a 4x4 or 5x5 area of the room with Panda Film (black/white poly) to run the single 1,000 in until we can get a few more lights. Planning on running the 150 HPS for veg along with some T5's (which haven't yet been purchased).
Right now the plants in the pics are just some random bagseeds from shit I've picked up over the last year. Sprouting 20 NYCDxLUI beans that I grabbed off a friend this week. Also have 5 Kalichakra fem seeds that a friend in Norway sent me
Will be mixing soil in the next couple days. Grabbing Pro-Mix, Perlite, and Worm Castings. Going to do a 50%, 25%, 25% ratio, respectively.
Updates will be coming on a weekly basis (hopefully). Construction on the room should start this week and will be done rather quickly.
Any and all comments and advice are greatly appreciated. Should be a good ride; come along
Peace,
H4TD
