I can't wait to get more space. Maybe I'll work on the garage this winter. I have a 2x2 and a 2x4 in my room lol I want a 4x4... but gotta wait til I got the $ for the lighting I'm gonna need. What do you run in there for veg?

So this will actually be my first grow. Right now they are under a tsw2000 but switching it out for the fc3000 when it comes in. I use a 2 in 1 tent with the main section being 3x3 and the small section being 3x1. I'm planning to use the bottom of the small section as a veg area and the top as a dry area. I bought a ts600 for the veg area but darn that thing gets so hot. Your plant looks awesome in the pic you posted on the other thread though. These are just autos to start out.

Thanks. I'm growing 1 auto pineapple express and 1 blueberry 420 in 7 gal pots next in the 2x4. They go in the pots in 2 weeks. by the time they sprout I'll be harvesting to clear the tent.

I can't wait till I get a perpetual cycle going. I'm just learning with this small setup while we live in a apt. Told my girl if I can grow good bud that we would start looking for houses hahaha

Now that I think about it I'm gonna need the tent for like 2 weeks max to hang dry lol Oh well. I can always start them off in my clone box.

You're tent is awesome tho. I'd flower in the big section.. seedlings/clones in the side top section and veg on the bottom side.

I am probably gonna build a small box for seedlings/clones. Ya I'm trying to do it all proper. I once tried in a closet with a shifty dhgate blurple light but didn't really pay any attention or do it right. This time I've constantly been reading and watching videos on stuff. RiU is definitely one of my favorite sites for info.

Yea between here and youtube I picked up a ton of info. Still have more to learn. You can build a clone box cheap. I paid like 14.99 for 4 of those light bars on ebay or amazon.. idk lol $11 for the storage bin and I drilled a few holes to zip tie the lights to the inside of the lid. I also lined the inside of the tote with foil and taped it up nice and tight. I have since f'd it up so if I use it again.. I gotta redo it all.

Check out this guy's little journal of switching to the fc3000. I'm so stoked for mine to come in.

Next clone round try taking the cutting shaving the bottom of the stem to peel off the outside skin ... dip in clonex and poke it thru the bottom of a root riot cube (After soaking it in your nutrient solution and gently squeezing it so that you don't remove all the moisture) It will have the wide end on the bottom. You need to put it in a seedling tray. Being the wide end is on the bottom.. the cube wont touch the bottom of the tray or the water you're gonna put in the bottom of the tray. Keep it under light as if you were vegging. Mist your dome as you would.. and pull those cubes up in 5 days. Not 10+ days. One or more of them would have rooted by then. Just don't forget to PH your solution.


I copy & pasted that from a post I was trying to help someone on. I can get you a link to the dude that put me onto that.
