OH HAY GUYS GUESS WHAT
New house, roommates are not psychopaths. Growing as a team, which should make us super successful. I failed at trying to grow and work 50 hour weeks at the same time, but now the roommates all have opposite schedules, so there's pretty much always gonna be someone here. I didn't even build the tent, which is good, I lack any carpentry skills. it's about 4 feet by 8 feet and probably about 6'6" tall. Less height than I really like, but we'll just have to train the ladies well. Low ceilings in this 1920's basement. tarped off the closet and gonna use that for veg as soon as the flower tent is full. Starting from scratch, Got a few random S1s from a friend, it was a pineapple pheno, but I'mma be hitting up TGA's rep tomorrow or the next day for some real fire. Wish I could get more starbud though! Really happy to be doing this all from scratch, with all I learned my last few tries, and the motivation for proper upkeep, I see no reason I should be plagued by the earlier problems like PM, heat, space, humidity, and generally not being a drunk and doing proper upkeep. It'll also help that it's in a basement, not a garage like my last roommate insisted on. I also have way too much equipment so it's gonna be an easy setup to get dialed in, I have two 6 inch vortex s-lines, 2 six in boosters, an 8 inch hyper fan, two carbon filters (buying a 3rd and then using the oldest as a room scrubber), 2 rw-75s, 2 w90s, 2 LECs, 2 t5 fixtures, and tons of miscellaneous.
For the first round, since we have nothing in flower we're gonna veg in the flower tent. The general idea is to mainline to keep 'em low and use the cuts to start veg and keep some moms. Gonna have both the LECs and all 4 area 51 LEDs in there to start, then eventually find or build some new COB LEDs once it's vegging time, and move the RW-75s to veg and put the new nice shit into the flower tent. We're probably gonna use the boosters for intake and exhaust in the veg closet, the vortexes for in/out in flower, and the hyper fan on the scrubber.
The roommate built the tent like a pro, I can do chin ups in it with no motion at all. It's waterproof just in case, the tarp going on the floor is just a cover. I picked up a window well cover which is cool, obscure's the yuppie neighbor's view a little bit. The landlord is very up front about the fact that the last tenants grew and he doesn't care.
Anybody have any TGA favorites I should be looking at? I know jillybean is on our list, all the roommates but me love it, I just don't like the taste. Querkle is on my list if they have it, but I know it's a slow veg with low yield. Yield isn't too important to me, I'm looking for that weed you show off to people. Frost and taste is paramount.
Also feeding recommendations? I've always just used the biocanna line, which definitely worked, but there may be something cheaper and better. There's a local company called mammoth that apparently makes good shit, and a friend of ours works for them, I'd love to incorporate their "mammoth P"
