Hey guys I had started a while ago about my system I was building but went ahead and deleted it because I was delayed a tad bit and didnt want to leave you guys hangin. Anyways just got it all tuned in and am loving it.. just hopin I can keep them all happy considering the different stages of growth..
I started with 30 clones and cloned them which is why the ones on the top are small single colas and the ones on the lower levels are bushier and take up more room. I have about 55 total in the system right now but it is built to hold 85 which I will do next time. It also has plenty of room on the top to add another level if my little heart desires. About the system: 85 sites 4 600w lumatek digital ballasts with eye hortilux bulbs hung vertically 3 levels with gutters and feed lines that have 4mm inline valves to regulate flow. I do not have an exhaust right now I am waiting for it to come in but I do have a 747 cfm can filter for an intake with fans circulating 40 gallon res 2000+ gph water pump as far as the lighting goes I run one side for 8 hours and the other side for 8 hours so that there is a 2 hour gap mid day where all four lights run on the 12 12 schedule.. when there are about 3 weeks left I will run both sides 12/12 Thats about all for now feel free to ask any questions. Oh ya and with 55 plants my goal this time is to hit 1.0 gpw with the strain LSD (Lavendar x Sour Diesel) The first four pics are of the building of the system so you can kinda tell how its laid out. the next pics are of plants and the last pics are the completed system

heres the completed system with babies in it..well except for the first one... and some of them look backwards because I took pictures in a mirror due to space constraints... forgot to mention interior area is 4x8 total system exterior is about 10 x 6.
Last picture shows how them growing vertically really makes the node intervals much smaller compared to the 2 weeks or so they were flowering in the bathroom haha btw the bigger ones are at day 22 the smaller ones at the top around day 15

update : had one of the larger babies die while I was on vacation because my dumbass had the feed line turned off like an idiot.. The rest are looking good.
I forgot to mention that I am using RO plus GH 3 part nutes with a few additions such as a bloom booster, h2o2 and calmag. Also look at the very last pic of the top cola,, growing vertically has made them so much more compact I cannot wait to see them when i have a full system next go around!! Feel free to chime in and ask any questions or make a comment! Dont be shy!

Nice set up. I have an apartment grow also. My wife only gave me 4 sq ft x 8 ft tall. Plus the are over the sink in the half bath. (good for clones and 3 mothers)
I only have a 430 watt light and some cfl's for side light. check out my grow (signature) I like to trade tips on how to grow in an apartment. It's long maybe just check out the last few pages as that is where most of the area pics are at. Good luck and good grow. |

thanks guys... noticed today that I have some spider mite problems and since they aren't very far into flowering (and its probably the latest I am willing to do it) I am going to fog them out today and kill those little fucks and follow up with safer soap and neem oil!
On a better note they are finally starting to get an aroma about them... its a faint sour smell combined with the sweet plant smell if you know what I mean. Cant wait till they start stinkin up my whole apartment complex!!

well after bombing em with a .05 percent pyrethrum bomb those little bastards were still frolicking around... Im coming up on week 4 so this is the last time I can bomb em.. I went today and got some fox farms dont bug me to help control em along with a commercial 4 percent pyrethrum bomb! Im going to have to wash the shit out of em after I do bomb em in the morning and blow some serious air all over my babies dont get all moldy..
fockin spider mites are a BITCH I hate these lil bastards.. my next step if this doesnt get em is to brew up some nicotine spray.. ill post some pics in a couple hours when the lights come on.

Thanks guys I appreciate it.. This first run is just to get it all tuned in and tested out... I cant wait till my next cycle where I can put 85 babies in there and get it really cranking!
I bombed this morning, Im getting ready to go in there and spray down all of the babies reaaaly good and put fans on em so they are dry by the time the lights come on... they are starting to fill out quite nicely.. I have been bending the stems to get them to spread out a tad bit more and take up more of the available space... I know I said I would post pics yesterday but now i really WILL post pics in about 4 hours haha Thanks again for the support and encouragement... makes it all that much sweeter!
