Default First Med Coco Grow
I am starting with 12 Purple Kush clones (per my and my wife's medical perscriptions) I would like to say from the start this is a medical grow for our perscription medication.
So here is what I have so far

The Room-
-10'x7'x7'
-3/4" R-max Therma board walls
-4" pea gravel subfloor for moisture buffer - with pool liner floor attached to walls
-2 x 1000w switchable ballast
-2 x 1000w MH bulbs for veg
-2x 1000w HPS for flower
-6" vortex exhaust with 6" passive intake vent
-oscilating fan
-passive intake for now- will be getting 6000 btu a/c (I am waiting to see if I need it before next summer)
- 2 - 4'x4' trays
- Milar on walls
-12 - 7 gal smart pots
- medium is Atami B'Cuzz premium coco

Watering
-55 gal heavy duty blastic drum
-pump and stones for aireating drum
-Stealthro 200 R/O purifyer
-Hanna ph/ec/tds meter
The drum will be sitting about 15' higher than the room and gravity feed a 1/2 rubber hose into the room. I will be hand watering at first.

Nutes-
-H&G A&B
-H&G Magic Green
-H&G root excel
-H&G bud xl
-H&G drip clean
-h&G shooting power

Electrical
- new sub panel
- 2 x 220 outlets
- 4 x 110 outlets
- mechanical timer

will be adding a carbon filter, automated watering system, humidifier and a/c unit

Here are a few pics..I haven't put up the milar yet..the girls were just transplanted last night.

What ever you do..get the air cooled reflectors..I turned mine on before I hooked up the ducting and they were so hot..too hot to touch..as soon as I hooked up the duct to the exhaust fan, it was a world of difference..warm to the touch..also you can put the lights closer to the plants..good luck keep me posted

So I have a little time I will explain the plants process...
I drove 3 hours to a clone farmers market in Lake County Nor Cal..because of outdoor harvest season there were no vendors..fortunatley there are several dispenseries in the area so we went to all of them..
There was a lot to choose from, but I wanted to get the healthiest plants I found( strain was second)..everyone had clones, but none looked as good as the 12 purple kush I bought.

Yesterday I moved them from the 6 oz pots and I put them right in the 7 gal smart pots. I moistened the coco a bit before I set them in the new pots. Afterward I watered them until it came out of the botom of the pot and didn't water again today...no nutes yet..the B'Cuzz coco is steam rinsed and re-buffed so I won't start nutes until week two.. when I top them..more updates to come

Default Day 3 in their new home..
So this is day day 3 form the transplant into the 7 gal pots..they sprouted up pretty quick.. they were 5 inches on Saturday...they are about 7" high now. I watered tonight..0 PPM filtered water only no nutes yet I will start the nutes in week two..I didn't water yesterday. I also trimmed an un-healthy lookng fans last night..I want to let them recover from the transplant and new envirement before I do much triming.

I am picking up a humidifier tomorrow..the room has been between 36% and 42% humidity..so I will fix that.

So I added a humidifyer and another oscilating fan..I have a little leaf curl on a couple of the girls..so I am hoping the second fan and raising the humidity will help..they should be getting over the shock of the new pots, medium and lights by now..
They look good though..not much dif than yesterday.
I will water again tomorrow and then add nutes to my water storage so I can test it and get it right before I feed the plants..I need to get my ph down a little.it's at 7 now and I am hoping the nutes will bring it down enough. The R/O filter is great..the water read 0 PPM today.
