My Equipment

Below I have included all the equipment, nutes, meters and so forth that I use in my day to day grows. The items listed below have direct links to their respective web sites for additional information. If your going to be a serious grower then you should at least invest in some decent equipment.


Lighting

New Wave T-5's
I use this unit for seeding, vegging, and cloning.
Seeding and vegging:18 hour light cycle.
Cloning: 24/7 hour light cycle.

This unit works extremely well. But only can veg. about six plants. So if vegging more than six one should use more lights.

1000 HPS Cool Sun Grow
I use this unit for flowering and finishing.
Used only for the 12 hour light cycle.

I would suggest 400 to 600 watt for closet growers.

SunRise Reflector Hanging System

The SunRise relector hanging system is a must have for any grower, but especially closet growers. Very easy to install, and it allows you to move your lighting system up or down with ease.

Exhaust Fan

These units I use to exhaust heat, smell, and to help draw fresh air in from outside. The squirrel cage design on these units are much quieter than most exhaust fans. But still they do emit some wind noise.

Oder Control

Carbon Cans help exhaust heat, smell, and to help cirulate fresh air in my grow areas.

"Oder Killer" Gel is used to help rid the grow area and beyond of all smells. Oder killer works fast when placed near the exhaust port of the Carbon Can.

The Carbon Can I use is 5' x 2.5'. It's fricken big!!! Most closet grower's only need the smaller unit! I like to over kill with the carbon cans. Nothing like clean fresh air! I also use the oder killer gel when I'm growing a major crop, but only while budding since the smell is much greater at that time. A little on the exhaust port clears an entire house out with in 20 mins. or so.





Grow Medium
I grow mostly in Rockwool cubes any more, mostly due to the easy clean up. They are an excelent grow medium, especially for the newbie grower. Soil really sucks to grow in mainly due to all the problems associated with it. pH can be a bear to control, perasites in the soil that damage the roots, root rot due to the acids in the soil as well as moisture retintion from over watering, bugs and spiders are attracted to soil as well. And the list goes on. But Rockwool and hydroponics that's a whole different ball of wax, and things are easier to control. I use 4x4x4 Rockwool cubes, which is perfect for closet grower's who want to grow several plants in a small and confined closet. Rockwool Round Splits work great for transplanting your clones or seedling into the Rockwool Cubes. I use a EZ-Clone 30 which is one of the best units for closet growers.
