Hey guys, I decided I'm sick of spending mad money on bud and decided that it would not only be rewarding but also fun if I tried to grow my own plant. I am starting with 1 plant with bagseed from a decent bad. I am not so much expecting a huge yield from these plants as much as I sort of just want to learn how to grow. BTW I am growing in my attic
Heres my setup.
- 1 growbox, about 1.5' by 1.5' (made from wood as the frame and sheetrock as the walls that have been painted white for reflection
-2 16 watt 1000 lumen each floro lights (may get rid of these since they don't fit well in the box
- 3 27 watt 1500 lumen 6500k CFL's w/ reflectors.
- generic store brand potting soil (hoping to cut some corners for prices but should still work fine)
- 24-8-16 NPK nutrients, will SLOWLY add these in during vegging but not a main priority. 1-2 weeks into flowering I will switch to 5-15-15 NPK nutes or something similar but I am going to be scarce on the nutes.
- 3 40 watt 2600K 2500 lumen each CFL bulbs (will install during flowering) will also probably get more bulbs
The plant is still in its starter cup and has sprouted, but don't have pics of that right now. I plan on keeping the vegging short and flower early. I'm giving the seedling 24/0 lights right now and will probably keep that through the entire veg until I switch to 12/12 on flowering. I plan to start flower once I get about 4-6 nodes and when I have an established root system
Here are some old pics of the grow box, BTW, the lights are much closer to the plant now, I have cut holes out of the sheetrock in the side and the CFL bulbs are sticking into the box from the outside all around the plant. Works nicely and I will get some more pics when I get ahold of a digi cam.
