I've been growing with partners for a few years now and I've learned quite a bit here and there....but I finally gave my most recent partner the boot and am having to do everything myself. I'm surprised at how much there is to learn. I've been a part of crops where we saw 4 oz. a plant and then those where we didn't even get an ounce each. But I was never in control before. I just helped out with watering and did the clipping.
We've been growing inside my garage, a self contained room built inside the garage that currently has 6 1000 watt lights, hoods, full ventilation, etc. Our plan was to grow a quick crop to raise some cash and then go in and deck the garage out how we wanted it. The system we have now was put up by my brother in law (my last partner). We had one great crop and caught up with bills and then the second one sucked. We barely got anything.
I have plenty of space, the garage is about 25x22 and almost all useable space other than the water pump in one corner. I definitely want a separate area for vegging, right now we use the same room for both veg and flower and it slows us down a lot. We have a cloner too. There are two windows in the garage, but they can be covered up. The garage doors have already been covered over with insulation.
I have a new investor, but I really don't want to spend more than another couple of thousand to get a veg area set up. Suggestions? Do you guys clone and veg in the same area? How about vegging on shelves, so you can use vertical space? Should I tear down the existing room or just add onto it?
We also have spiders, that's what killed our last crop. My ex partner just set off a few bombs, but never really got rid of them. I've used a bomb and I've been spraying them with Dawn and I think that's helping. It got rid of them and then 5 days later, they popped up again so I sprayed again yesterday and I'll keep at it. I want them GONE.
My current crop is looking good though. We're 5 weeks into veg right now and I'm waiting for some of them to catch up before I put them into flower. Would be AWESOME if I had another room!
I'm cutting clones today or tomorrow and would like to have the second room ready to go by the time they are ready to put in pots.
Ideas? I guess I could put some pictures up, is that necessary?
Thanks for your help!
