Im considering a grow which I will outline below. Its not strictly a microgrow but i think i could learn most from microgrowing techniques. any advice will be greatly appreciated...
First I would like to say "hello" to all as I'm new to this forum...
Right down to business,
I have a growroom and I'm planning on using 1.5 x 1.5m (2.25m2) to do an experimental 12/12 grow... I gained my inspiration from reading Del's 12/12 thread.
Soil (Biobizz allmix)
15 cm (4.5l) pots
4 x apollo 12 led (approx 2000w with 1600w actual draw)
temp 26 day 20 night
dehumidifier to adjust humidity accordingly
Biobizz nutes
extraction system
fans for air circulation
strains will be high yielders that dont grow too high under 12/12 like northern lights, grapefruit, ultra skunk etc... basically cola's on sticks!!
My plan is to utilise the space by using 100, 15cm pots. they will fit perfectly into 2.25m2. The aim is to grow small plants with virtually no side branches and an extremely high bud to leaf ratio... like i said before, cola's on sticks.
I am interested on peoples opinions on whether 0.5 - 1oz per plant is a realistic yield. I am only interested in peoples opinions that have grown 12/12 before or grown many plants in small area... I appreciate the average grower may think I'm mad for even suggesting this!
I do not need any comments like "do you know how much work that will be?", "why don't you grow 25 in the same space instead of the 100?" or anything along those lines as I have a certain amount of growing experience and quite a good knowledge. I know it will be hard work!! And like I have said before, its just an experiment. (A pretty interesting one at that I think!).
I am only using soill as the grow medium as thats where my experience lies... I may change to coco if the general concenus is that I will get better results. My growroom will have optimal conditions and be more than saturated with light!! I shall also be giving the ladies the time and attention they deserve. I would also like to add that feeding/watering will not be a problem as they are on specially designed trays I can move about.
I appreciate any feedback or advice from those "in the know..."
Thankyou for your time in reading this thread... If I decide to go ahead with this I may document it on this forum if anybody is interested.
