Closet SOG: Jack the Ripper, Strawberry Cough, White Widdow, White Dwarf

mrhs · Mar 27, 2009

Okso due to circumstances beyond my controlI was forced to abandon my last grow and am now getting restarted. I am limited to a very small closet so I will be setting up a small sog grow and harvest every two weeks. I have not decided what size pots I will be using to flower yet so I am not sure of the number of plants I will be putting in

Here is the space. It is a small closet about 2 x 3.5 x 8. In order to have a mother/veg area I have divided it into two rooms. Vegging occurs in the bottom flowering in the top:

The ladies will veg under 400 watts power compact fluorescents. On the left you can see the air intake. The floor is raised about 2 inches to allow a blower housed in that box to get fresh air in from under the door:

When they move to the flower chamber they will be met by an air cooled 600 watt hortilux HPS:

I ordered from the pick and mix selection from Attitude Seeds. From what I ordered I chose to start a Dutch Passion Strawberry Cough Female, a Seedsman White Widow Female, and a Buddha White Dwarf Auto-flowering Female. Pictured in above order.

About a week ago a friend of mine came by with a folder full of beans. He had everything in Subcools array plus a few more. He told me to pick what I wanted to grow! So I chose a five pack of Jack the Ripper and put them in a paper towel March 22 they all germed but 3 of the seeds produced 2 plants each. I separated them before potting and ended up with 8 seedlings from 5 seeds. 2 have since died so I now have 6 The 2 that germed normally have been strongest the others have all been fairly weak, if they dont improve soon I may pull emwe will see

I hope I get a female or two from these maybe a pink pheno!

These pics are a couple days old, Ill get some new ones up tonight when the lights are on.

Feel free to comment on my set up if you like

Are you using a four inch fan to air cool your light? I see the six to four inch reducer on the left side of the reflector and was a little confused. What type of fan are you using to air cool the light?

Is that blower real loud? I was looking at blowers that put out the same amount of airflow at my local hydroponic store. Can you post a pic of how you mounted yours? Thanks a lot bro

mrhs · Apr 6, 2009

it is kind of loud but not too bad with the door shut....ill snap a pic next time i take some...i just hung it with a rubber bungee from a hook and shoved a pillow behind it to dampen the vibration...i know its kind of ghetto but it works lol.
