4000W Medicial Purple Kush 256 Plant Ebb and Flow SOG Grow

Ok. Heres the deal.
4x1000W lumatek digital ballst in 4 Magnum XXXL 8" Hoods
15,000BTU Air conditioner
Sentinel Electronic Ignition CO2 generator ran off of propane
Sentinel CHHC-1 controller
2 70gallon res
4 4x4 trays
2 8" Vortex for light cooling

There is currently 64 plants on each tray. 3 of the trays are full of PK. the last tray has a mixture. 25 Querkle, 20 Grandaddy Purple, and 19 PK. I want to see which strain yields the best and then i will probably switch completely to that strain. The entire harvest will be split between me, my 2 uncles, mom and dad, and the rest will go to a medical club that a buddy of mine works at.

The controller is set to 85 degrees. At 85.5 degrees the A/C comes on and cools the room down to 79. For the night cycle the temp is set to 76. At 76.5 degrees the A/C comes on and cools the room down to 70. After about 4 weeks i will be dropping the temps during the night cycle into the low 60's to bring out the color in the ladies. The CO2 is set to 1425PPM. It cuts off at 1425 but then continues to rise into the mid 1500's. When it falls below 1425 the generator cuts back on.

My last run I kept the nute schedule pretty simple. I ran the lucas formula and added Big Bug after about a week or two. This time I am trying something different. Here is the list of the nutes I am using this time

FloraMicro
FloraBloom
Hygrozyme
Diamond Nectar
Bloombastic
FloraNectar
Clearex for flushing

I am hoping to yield between 6 and 8lbs. Video of the setup is below.

deff jealous . will you use lucas style formula with new stuff? im kinda confused also, does lucas formula just only call for pk nutes only.??? no additives?

i am going to use the lucas formula. but i think I'm going to do it at 3/4 strengths or maybe half strength because the diamond nectar increases nutrient uptake so i think they will burn easier. or that's what i have learned at least from reading threads and researching.

Loved the last 2 grows, Subed

yea yo with that monster setup i cant wait to see what it can do lol thats a lot of power ur running.. i have a question did you have to do any electrical work? and what did you do? i dont know much bout the electrical side of things ive been trying to find something to understand it better but havent had any luck.. i was thinking bout doing something similiar to this but with a lil less power

I definitely in on this one. Subscribed

im here for sure

Very nice. I'll be watching.

no major electrical work. just ran 2 different circuits into the room straight from the breaker box. one for each pair of lights and fans. i could of got by without it but i just wanted to make sure there was nothing else on the circuits so i know they wont trip.

glad to have you

dude it takes 5million watts to grow one bacth how dose the grid not notice that, do u have a license

figure 1 month veg =30 days = 30* 18 hours = 540 hours lights on
figure 2 months flower = 60 days =60* 12hours = 720 hours lights on



540+720=1260 hours total

1260* 4000watt = 5,040,000watts

hahaha thats 5000kw's

Another amazing SOG grow, who would miss that? Not me.

^^5000kw hours where I live is only 400. Not bad, but once you add in fans and everything else it's probably closer to 5-600.

I believe hes doing SOG so no Veg cycle, so Less light in total, 12/12 cycle all the way
Loving the set up btw, nice and clean, how many mothers you got?

yes i do have a medical card. as you can see in the title this is a medical grow. i am a caregiver with numerous patients that i grow medicine for. this grow is very legal. and i dont know about the grid. all i know is i pay my electric bill on time. and i hope they dont notice anything.

i am vegging right now. but i will only be vegging for about another week. then the lights will get flipped. got about 30 mums.

it cool then your in no danger, i said that because people have been caught by that. say u live in a house for 10 years, and suddenly one year your electricy usage doubles they notice things like that.. but becarefull cuz i have heard of DEA running in and raiding every thing cuz the fed gov still calls it illeaga.. dont know if u will get in trouble but they will take your shit and break your lightsl

very nice and clean... love the setup! can't wait for the results!

Thats a beautiful set up! Keep up the good work!

o yea dont think im haten on you, just random facts, i wish u best of luck "may bud be with u"

Bout time there's another grow god dam man!! Jk man you know I'm here for the ride dude good job on the last grow and good luck on the new.

Question,

I seem to do well with my rockwool grows after I get through the initial veg stage. Once they grab hold and take off I'm good. The first two weeks are brutal for me though. I'm running RO water and GH nutes, 4x8 tray and 2000w. Any advice regarding watering or nutes in the critical first two weeks? I feel as if I'm a logical person but still cannot dial it in. I'm ready for soil...
