Hey all, thought I'd start a journal of our medical grow here to support the greenhouse forum and get some input from the good people of icmag. Glad to be here, icmag has been a huge resource for me and hopefully I can start giving back to the community now. ![Tiphat :tiphat: :tiphat:](/data/assets/smilies/tiphat.gif)
24 each of Hindu Skunk and XXX will be flowered. Thoughts on these strains? We're doing an early light dep, shooting for end of June harvest on the Hindu Skunk and second week of July for the XXX. Looking for 12lbs with all of them LST'd.
Vegging indoor (for another 2-3 weeks, they were put into soil 2.5 weeks ago) under a 400w MH in a small mylar box I built. I'm about a week into LST with them. Hopefully the .8 gallon containers I have on the way will be enough until they're in the 5's outside.
Roots Organics soil in the 4.5" pots right now, I'm going to run about 30% Perlite 70% Roots Organics for the 5 gallon pots they'll finish in.
Keeping it simple on the nutrients this cycle since this is the biggest I've gone so far. GH Maxigro and GH Maxibloom along with some Maxicrop, no other additives planned currently.
Greenhouse is 2 carports end to end. To make it a little easier to cover and not so obvious from a distance, we're building a PVC bottom frame to shorten it instead of cutting the poles. It'll sit on top of a "foundation" of 2x9" lumber that we also put together. This will make stapling the cover to the frames much easier and cleaner. Inside will be a PVC drip system and the floor will be covered with white poly to keep humidity and heat down as much as possible.
I've been holding off on starting the journal until I got some good updates built up, so here ya go:
Every veg room has to start somewhere right?
45 Hindu Skunk and 25 XXX, we were babysitting some and a couple others will be mothers.
The front panel pops off for tending.
Bit of transplant shock/burn on the left there (I think). This is the XXX.
First LST.
Foundation and top frame assembled.
If you like building stuff and don't have a good set of quick clamps, go get some now! These things are amazing.
Legs for the frame.
They'll sit right at the edge of the foundation for a nice, clean attachment of the greenhouse cover.
Thanks for watching, I'll be updating this regularly and certainly appreciate questions/comments/suggestions!
