Hi RIU friends.
This is a journal for the @ViparSpectra P2000 that I won in the Christmas New Year Giveaway and thank you @ViparSpectra
I'll update once a week.
The plants that I'll focus on will be six autos. They are already on day fifteen. One pot has three plants that are regular auto seeds and I'm waiting on them to sex. Then I'll cull the males.
Light is on 20/4 schedule, at about twenty inches away on 50%
Four plants are Sweet Seeds- Sweet Mix Auto and the other two are crosses by a friend.

I really don't use a thermometer anymore. I did for a few years but nothing changes in my grow area so I don't have the need for one. I did find an app I'll use for this. You can download the app and compare it to your thermometer. Seems to be pretty close to the heat and air thermostat for the house which it set to 68 degree's winter and 70 for the summer. Also, it's about right on temp compared to back when I did have a thermometer in there.
The highest it ever got is 80 in the hottest part of the summer.

These are day 22 from sprout and harvest time says 53 to 65 days

I don't ph my water/nutes either. Well water is 6.0 to 6.5 and I use Greenleaf Nutrients which has never changed the ph enough to worry about imo.
Hope this helps and if there are any questions feel free to ask.
Peace friends.

The wide angle option on my camera. It really does the trick.
I just noticed the old dusty PC fan o_O I should clean it. Need a good fan upgrade one day. They really do work good for a small space though and last forever.

I'll get some single plant photos up next. Been busy with heart rehab 4 days a week and working on the outdoor garden. Also building a chicken coop to try my hand at that.
:peace:

Thanks @ViparSpectra :mrgreen:
I use green leaf nutrients line. Mega Crop 9-6-17, Cal-Mag Pro, and Sweet Candy 0-0-16. I start with 1/4 gram per gallon of mega crop after the first 7 days then move up to 1/2 gram after 14 days. At around 25 days I'll move it to 1g per gal and add 1/2 of cal-mag. Around 35 days I'll bump it up to 2g per gal of mega crop 1g of cal-mag and start adding in sweet candy at 1g per gal. After about 45 days the mega crop is at 2 to 3g per gal depending on how the plant looks. Cal-mag is 3g per gal and the sweet candy is 3g per gal until the last week of growth where they just get water.
I add tablespoon of grandma's molasses every other water after the 14 days of growth. Next grow I'd like to add in their Bud Explosion PK booster 0-19-39 or their Gravitron Flower and Bud Hardener. We'll See how that goes.
I use well water and the PH always ran around 6.0 to 6.5 every time I tested it. Now I've not PH tested anything since 2015. I've been growing autos indoor since 2011. Started with a small nightstand converted into a little grow box with 6 CFL bulbs and 4 Short Stuff Blue Himalayan. Been growing my own medicine ever since.
That's about it I'd say :weed: :bigjoint: :peace:

Wow, such a detailed and professional nutrition process, no wonder they grow so well, this is inseparable from your careful planting. Is this nutri process suitable for other strains? Or just Auto? :hump:

Thanks @ViparSpectra and yes it works for all strains, soil and hydro. But obviously a photo would be able to handle a stronger amount than a auto.
Their website has so much information on the use and how to dial in the feedings to get the most out of your plants. Lots of grows documented over on Grow Diaries.
I used the fox farm trio with a couple of additives for the first few auto grows back 2011-2012. Worked well, great grows, full chunky buds but I was looking for something a little more organic. Then switched to general organics grow box for soil. It worked well and didn't have to be pH tested if you had correct pH water and had a lot of attitudes for the root system, stems, buds, and so on. Only drawback was the buds were just not full and chunky enough when comparing it to other peoples grows of the same strand on other forums.
A friend turned me on to the mega crop line a couple of years ago. It has really exceeded my expectations.
So easy to use. Pretty good support if you have questions.

Here's the Bruce Banner auto I just harvested a couple weeks ago grown with Green Leaf nutes. Last few weeks is was getting extra light from the P2000
