Hello all. I've been growing for years in all types of media, and systems. I am currently switching back to the canna coco line. I'm also remodeling a new room. Due to size and hight limitations I've decided to grow my first scrog. I am also limited to the number of plants I can grow. Here is a little about my setup.
The room is 7'x10' with a 7' ceiling. The screen will be 4'x8' with a 3.5 inch grid. I'll be running two 1k matrix ballasts hooked to 40"x30" low profile hoods (only 5" deep). These will be vented with 8" ducting. My meaduim is canna coco brick (to save on shipping) and cannas coco line of nutrients. I'll be growing 8 querkle in 15 gallon smart pots, and before anyone jumps on me for the 15 gallon pots, I can't water every day so I had to go big. Also I'm a firm believer in the bigger the root system the bigger the plant/buds. I'm going to hand water as needed and drain to waste. The particular pheno of querkle I got is a very squat thick plant. It should work great for scrog. The room will have AC and a dehumidifier, and be augmented with co2. My temps usually run 80/85 lights on and 65/70 off. Humidity is generally 45/55 day and night. I set the co2 at 1500ppm.
I think that about covers everything. If anybody has any constructive advice, I'd love to hear it. Its been a while since my last coco grow. Jumped on the organic bandwagon for a few years, and haven't noticed any change in flavor, smell, and smokeability with the organic, only a drop in overall yeild.
But shes doing OK and growing. Hope she recovers well....
...and just went for it: I bended that girl down for one last time! Hope she don`t have major stress now and will be heading up and stretching few more days!
