Yes sir I plan on it. Just got most of my stuff To start my 4x4x7 tent up and running. I need cal mag, recharge, ph meter, ppm meter, microbes ,coco and clones yet which people now want to hoard. I went with the CoCo Conni A B bloom as my base was gonna grab maxi bloom but this was just 10 bucks more. During veg Ive used bloom nutes alot just less with calmag for nitrogen. just recieved my GC 315w cmh Light to start with, but plan on working my way up to say 3 600w hps or equivalent. I have 3 inline fans and few filters. Cant wait man take it easy

Why 3 600W's? That's overkill for a 4x4, I believe that 2 - 315W will give you wonderful results. From what I have read, the 315W CMH is equivalent to a 500W HPS.
Remember Less Is More! I would use 250 ppm of base nutes in veg and 350 ppm in flower. That for me is about 4 ml +/- base nutes S&B.
Here is one of my recent work sheets for my rez.
Oh, and here is a pic of my current grow! Yesterday

I would still go with the 315's, I will never go back to HPS.
Two 315W gives you about the same light as 2 - 600's at a lot less cost and a hell of a lot less heat.

I'm back guys I did indeed get a home and my grow going. I am still missing the ro filter and actually a lot of little things been feeding 380 to 450ppm AN Conni coco A B. Plus cal mag and ph Down. Well water is 220ppm. It is pretty weak stuff if you ask me. A coco mix supposedly the shop didn't have coco looked to be just opening but it is right next to my house. What I got compulsively is Dairy Doo Plug Mix the Guy told me its a coco blend. Its was quiet hydrophobic at first.
Ive had the plants 3 weeks and they were pretty sad clones at first. strains are 2gg4 and 3 of Bruce Banner #3. Hoping to get more ratchet straps to get the filter off the floor asap. Light is of course the GC 315 set at 245w. GC 3K Red enhanced bulb

Alright fellas I got a room after 10 years of waiting. Many failed caregivers and problem grows with cumplusive people. Patients pays off.
Got my light at 315w plus a ledstrip up along the hood so abit extra light in my 4x4. Here in Michigan having a hard time keeping 70 at lights off. Thinking one more light in there and the heater would turn off. I made a 8x8 room. Puut the tent it and that's about it yet Tuesday I'm hooking up a inkbird thermostat controller to a heater on half power and a 4inch exhaust at top off the 8x8 room. Right now heater is on full time.

Howdy fellas little update I kinda was disappointed with this run but its my 1st one here. Im only using the 315w cmh. I do not have the money for anything at the moment. I wanted more light but not after building my room. Everything seemed double the price lol. I just finally got the temps stable with the inkbird heating and exhust thermostat maybe a week with it. These are on the 3rd week the first two weeks temps were all over the place but i got more insulation for the outside walls of the room in the garage. Now its 75 in the tent. again these are in some kinda coco mix called Dairy doo plug mix idk. Got few bricks of coco now though Seeds are going in the closet.
2 gg4 on left and 3 Bruce banners on the right. Smaller flowers then Id like but seems super frosty.

Question:
Does anyone weigh their coco prior to putting it in the pots?
I started a couple of grows ago, weighing the coco/perlite, packing it in the Smart pots to the level desired and doing that to pots. I will water it in with nute solution and then top it off with coco/perlite to the desired level.
From my observations I note that by doing this the nute solution runs through the medium at a consistent rate. Prior to doing this I noted that some pots held more solution than the others, not having that now.
Just wondering if anyone else does this and what your seeing.

My transplanting method.
I maintain the same weight in pot, create the hole for the seeding in the Solo's to fit.

Start of week 9. The left side is Bruce banner and gg4 on the right. Oh there is a handful of buds missing just couldn't pay 55 for a 8th with this stuff in the tent. Learned my limit with fertilizer. My next round of plants are not even close to flowering size. Needless to say I'm gonna have to reveg that banner I think alot of my family likes the colorful stuff best. The gg4 is stickier it seems.
