Hi Guys, am new to the community and glad to be here.
What my goal is with this thread is to get good advice from experienced growers in order to have a successful first grow. I wont start my grow for at least two weeks until I get all the proper info. Any tips or help will be greatly appreciated.
I plan to get more or less 6oz out of this setup from what I've read in other threads. This should last me a whole year, its for medical purposes. So am only planning to do one grow a year if this is successful.
I haven't been active growing since my first grow on a Stealth PC over a year ago. I was growing two autos and it was a half successful grow, had to chop em early because I was leaving out of town for work for at least 3 weeks.
Anyways... Please if you can... have a little patience, its not that long of a read. Thanks in advance.
A year later.... I bought myself a good setup from what I've researched this past two weeks
Setup>
- Gorilla Grow Tent 2 x 2.5 feet
- P300 Platinum LED
- Hurricane 171 CFM - 4 inch
- Phresh Lo-Carbon Air Filter 4" x 20"
- Four or Five Gallon Smart Pots
- Couple of Small Oscillating Fans for inside tent
- Fox Farms Ocean Forest + 25% Perlite
Strains>
In this 2 x 2.5 grow tent I was planning to grow two or three plants due to the size. This are FEM not Autos.
- Fem Sour Diesel
- Fem Girl Scout Cookies
- Fem Super Silver Haze
I will probably LST to keep em the right height and wait for different strain to catch up. Should I do topping or defoliation? I plan to Veg for 5 weeks and Flower for 8-9 weeks.
Ambient>
I have established my tent in a bathroom inside a room. The bathroom has a small window that goes to the outside of the building. The room itself has another window which am using as an intake for clean fresh air. Now... I will be growing summer time where I live. Average temps climb to 34C(93F) during day and at night they drop to 24-26C(77F). In the bathroom should be around 29-30C during the day but the Room has 12000BTU split inverter AC.
So I guess I'll have to turn the AC every two hours or so to keep temps down while having the window in the room a bit open for intake (maybe with a small window fan would work as well?). Window in the bathroom will be the outtake.
Please any advice on this setup would be awesome. I also want to make sure that carbon filter works well as I live in a building and about two floors up from Social Area, and don't want to provoke any nosers knocking on my door, if you know what i mean
Nutrients>
This is where am getting a lot of confusion. I've read many threads with many mix feelings about what to use and not to use. This is my list of nutrients I haven't used since last grow, many I never used. Using Fox Farms Ocean Forest I've read that you don't need to feed anything for at least 30 days for maybe except root growth like Voodoo Juice. I will put them on soil after they sprout and then all the way until harvest, no transplant (am afraid lol)
- AN Voodoo Juice
- AN Big Bud
- AN Overdrive
- AN B52
- AN Bud Candy
- AN Bud Igniter
- Calmag
- Humboldt grow 2-1-6
- Humboldt bloom 0-6-5
- Foxfarms grow big 6-4-4
The PC Stealth grow I did with Autos a year ago doesn't really count since now its a year later and with FEM instead of autos. So any advice from growers who have used this products before and have a proper schedule or any other tip based on my setup will be greeted with great appreciation.
Thanks for reading!
