Hello everyone and welcome back to a new and exciting adventure with 3 new strains (for me) to grow.
The strains are (from top left and clockwise throughout this grow):
1-Green House White Widow
2-Nirvana Bubblelicious
3-World of Seeds Amnesia (free seed)
Medium: Modified Waterpack ACS. Basically, it is a 3x waterfarms all connected together and to a main res. and a top off res that sits above the main res. This was purchased from GHE. I modified the system by adding many 1/4" holes to the top container allowing the roots to grow into the bottom res (in a DWC fashion). Airstones were added to all the reservoirs and the top water dripper works when the lights are on only!
GRoom: 1.2x1.2x2.0m grow tent (Lighthouse Lite). Mid 70sF average temp and the humidity will be maintained in the 50s and 60s range during veg and much lower during flowering to increase resin production. 2 fans will be blowing lightly on the plants to help strengthen the stems.
Lighting: 600w MH during veg and stretch period of flowering then HPS during flowering. The light is cooled via an 8" glasstube with reflector wings. The tube is attached to an 8" extraction fan by Xplair (rated at 614 CFM). I want to increase the lighting wattage to 1000 in this groom and I want to try mixing HID and LED here. I plan on purchasing an LED around 400w actual but I still don't know what to get (checkcing Optics, area51, Amare's SE350UBV). I got time til flowering as I only intend to increase the light wattage during flowering.
Growing style/training method: SCROG using a DIY screen made with CPVC and 1/8" nylon string (2"x2"squares). An elastic scrog screen may be used later if needed to support the heavy buds and will be placed about a foot above the scrog screen.
Feeding: RO water with calimagic added to about 200-250ppm (any less and I usually get cal deficiency) and little B Essential (by GH which is essentially micro and submicro elements that I'm missing by using RO) to a total ppm of no more than 250-300. My base nute line will be GH FloraNova @ their recommended dosage. Diamond Nectar will be used also at the recommended dose during the veg stage. I may supplement PK later. Great White will be used directly in the res when i'm super busy to brew Heisenberg's tea. My recipe for this is: in 1-2 gal water I add a tablespoon molasses, half a scoop GW and a handful EWC in a sock and a brew for 48 hours in a warmer room so the brew temp stays in the mid to high 70s.
