Hey all.
I'm still pretty new to the forum but as I'm in the planning phase for setting up a medicinal grow in MA, most likely in a converted basement, I figured I might as well share what I'm thinking and bounce some ideas of the experts here.
Here's what I'm piecing together with the assistance of a friend who's setup rooms in other states and manages a hydroponics store nearby.
12 x 1800w BloomBoss LED Flower
4 x 1800w BloomBlass LED Veg
(these lights are developed by the hydro store down the road and include adjustments for different cycles, most interesting to me is that they cover the spectrum I want, are adjustable, and only pull like 700w each.
Thinking I'll tent the flower in a 10'x20' and put my sativas in there and another 10'x10' for my indica dom couchlock, we have a lot of patients in recovery from opiods out this way who strongly prefer that narcotic/knock out (coincidentally if anyone has a recommendation for a killer body stone high producing not to fussy indica i'm still open to ideas but kinda leaning towards going with a bodhi-blue tara or jabba's stash). But realistically I'm considering shortness of flower and gram to watt yield over my preferences as I plan to get that side up and funding the rest sooner.
Basically I'm looking at 4 x 7gal for each 5'x5' with an 1800w in each 5'x5'. Then for my version of perpetual I'll run it like old school crop rotation, taking out 4 plants (one 5'x5' minicube) for trim and replacing them with the next vegged out clones.
So far my partner is focusing on veganic growing methods and we're both hoping to find some amazing mammas to bring a variety of top shelf sativas (so far I'm thinking Satori n 8 Miles High from Mandala, Soma's NYC Diesel, Privada Reserve's (prolly backwards) sour d, and barney's farm's laughing buddha.
I'm looking to start 1 sativa and my indica/indica dom first to give myself room to get mothers.
I'd be interested in any thoughts of further questions for what we're thinking, I'm trying not to get too deep into it haha.
I'm most interested in learning about phenotypes for each strain and developing relationships with seed banks that I am most interested in (which I've gathered from lurking are the organics like hazeman, mandala, bohdi, soma, and I'm sure i'll pick up more.
Thanks for taking a peak.
