Hello fellow growers ,
Me and a friend are currently in the planning stages of setting up a medium sized grow room with full attention given to quality. No corners will be cut and we are probably looking at a budget around $5,000 once it's all said and done.
With that said, the plan is to use a 3rd room and completely turn it into a purpose built hydroponic grow room. While a location hasn't been nailed down yet it's safe to assume the room will be at least 10' x 10' at a minimum. Probably going to go with a 4x4 or 5x5 grid of buckets so anywhere from 16 to 25 plants grown under absolutely ideal conditions (4x1000w+ lights, organic nutrients, perfect water chemistry, 1500PPM+ C02, 72-76 F, everyday TLC, etc, etc).
My question to all of you is what strains should we been looking towards. The goal is to have decent selection of strains that all grow similarly (height, width, flowering times, nutrient needs, etc) so that we aren't stuck with just the same thing over and over again .
I'm thinking a good mix of hybrids with 1 or 2 leaning heavily indica with a solid 50/50 hybrid and hopefully some strains that grow relatively short but have sativa dominant effects. So far I've been at it for a few days reading multiple strain reviews and grow journals and the strains standing out so far include: Sensi star, shiva skunk, Jack herer, Vortex, and Warlock.
As far as "cash cropping" goes we probably will be selling 60% to 70% of our yields to recoup operating costs as well as to reinvest into perfecting the set up, so yield is a priority only behind strain quality and complexity; besides we couldn't smoke it all if we wanted. Figured it's better to share the love.
Anyways, you input is, as wlays, greatly appreciated.
