I was gonna do the 1000w but I don't want to have to run any loud inline fans for ventilation(it's a grow room within a garage) because it might attract attention......if I have the 600w I should be able to run it with just a couple regular fans
well since mine is literally outside (greenhouse) do u thnk 1000w will work? its an old place with terrible wiring so if anything ill only b using 1 fan n 1 light cuz idk how much or how to find out how much electricity i can use b4 burnn it down lol. kinda y i was leann towards 600w instead. i dont thnk high temps should b problem tho with fan plus 3 vents for fresh air (the door plus 2 lil windows up high are a screen not plastic). wut do u thnk?

I think you need to get all the electrical checked out first lol......How many circuit breaker boxes do you have?

Late start on the thread. I'm new here (RIU and California) and this is my first grow. I'm growing in a old greenhouse that hasn't been used in years. I had to clean it out, plastic it up, and change out a few green roof panels for clear ones (couldn't afford to replace them all, that will be next year). Made some homemade boxes for plants and used a couple buckets for the others.

Started around 5/21
MG soil
Hose water
All dispensary clones
-Deadhead OG
-Gods Gift
-Cinderella 99
-Guido
-Querkle
-Purple Dragon

thnx bro! ill b updating with pics tonight or tomorrow. they r really taking off. i wanted weather protection and stealthness. people have roamed and stole items from this property b4. its worked great which suprised me since the light is filtered through plastic. next year i will finish paneling roof with clear panels, dig out stones and make holes for plants, and grow directly in the ground instead of pots.

Sounds good! I know you can get a really nice garden of greenery in there!

greenhouse(w15).jpgguido(w15).jpggodsgift(w15).jpgdeadheadog(w15).jpgpurpledragon(w15).jpgquerkle(w15).jpgcindy99(w15).jpg
same as before. 1st are the 5 healthy girls then guido, gods gift, deadheadog, purple dragon, querkle, and sick cindy99. all the healthy girls are really stretchn and poppin hairs now. guido is weeks ahead of the others. gods gift had a SM infestation on a low branch hangn towards the dirt so it got under trimmed big time yesterday. ill go back to regular treatments for those on all plants now... cindy stil looks bad but shes slowly and i mean SLOWLY recovering. i wonder if she gt SM n i didnt see em...
cloneguido(w15).jpgheres the only clone that survived and shes grown well. it recieves sun all day then a lil cfl at night to keep her veggn. shes from my guido, so at least i know shes a quick finisher. update again at the end of week.

i just went to look cindy over again and found some SM on a few leaves. if it was mites, for them to destroy cindy in a matter if days and me not notice is amazing. either way, i pruned and treated her again. i hope she can pull through with a lil sumpn. all the rest look great though.

so i havent been updating because the property my plants were on had tresspassers. broken windows broken padlocks on sheds missing items... they had to of walked right in my greenhouse and decided to come back when they flowered. i since had been busy being paranoid as fuck thinking of all the possibilities and preparing for each one. last week i decided its too much stress so i built a new greenhouse on a diff. property and moved my girls there. much safer and it eases my mind. i will post pics n a few hours because i think they have a deficiency.

ill post pics soon but ive pulled 3 plants and yielded just over 3 ozs/plant.

querkle-106 g
gods gift-105g
guido-92 g

deadhead og and my purple dragon faunt both look like they should pull more than 3 zips and the cindy 99 came back with a vengeance after literally losing every fan leaf by a mite attack. ifi estimate correctly ill pull jus over a pound which was my goal so im extremel stoked. all my buds are kinda airy due to insufficient direct sun but the potency is off the charts. they smell delicious and the taste is almost there with a few more burps. ill pull the other 3 this sunday. then update on those as well.
