So the glue is dry.
Coco & 1 gal Smart Pots showed up.
Soaked the coco and mixed in perlite 60/40 .

Decided to test and if all goes good I will add the 5 little
Ladies late today.

Placed mini~me in my CAB and though she fits it's going to be tight...

Waiting on the air pots and the clones to root.

She passed the test so plugged the little ladies in.

Got a 300 w LED (Which has a narrow foot print so added
4 x 26 w CLF's. Will add 4 more on the other side once clones get moved.

Found my pens. Tested the water under 2 pot.
Jacks hydro only in Mini~Me
PPM-688
Ph-6.7

I dilute Jacks with warm sink water then PH down and let sit in buckets 2 days.

Lets see if she can save the (so cslled)Girl scout cookie cross.
Little lady looks to be dying.
Has been cold and the girl friend decided to
take a look while im at work and leaves the door open all day.

All the little ladies seem slow so im hoping
the new CAB & system will do the trick.

BUMP in the road....

Pulse feeding is not going so well.
Continues to drain water after pump turns off..
Hand watering for now. Not often enough..lol

Talk about a good way to start 2013...

There have been various unknown factors to setting up for this winter's grow...
Unsure when I would be moving and where I would need up.
Money and all the other little stuff life tossed in...

In the last 2 days...

I talked the owner of the house into a deal for not 1 or 2 rooms... I got the whole 3 br small house... yahooo..

Talked the girlfriend into staying here and even got her ta give me the

10' x 10' room with a
2'x10'x10' closet to grow in.
Then with 2 - 4" holes I would also have access
to the 2'x2' closet in the hall. (Holes needed to vent)

So now that money is stable and my feet are planted...

Let grow a little somethin...

Yet another piece of the puzzle...

GROW TENT ROOM 8'X4'X7'

This thing is going to be sweet.
Should take about a week to show which will be perfect.

Air Root pots should show tomorrow for the clones.

Only thing im missing is a R.O. system.

Now that I know what my grow spaces are the questions are...

What ~ How & How many...

Since The grow tent will be in a locked room I can place any feeder/control bucket & ballas outside the tent.

I also have tons of CFL's from 26w-64W Bulbs.

CFL Vert ? 4 x 64w cfl stacked Vert.. lol...
In between 2 ladies on a 10gal tote.. hummm..

What ta do ? Ideas ? Suggestions ? Warnings ?

Smoken that...

Diamond Crack -- Sativa. A+++
So smooth. Great thinking smoke. Heavy hitter..

Louis Vatton -- Indica. A+
Like smoking pine needle soaked in apple juice.
Strange yet wonderful empty headed smoke. Loven my couch..

400w Hps -VERT- 8 x 1.5 gallon Air pots

I placed 5 pots on a 20" x 33" x 11" tote.

I placed 2 pots on 2 -16" x 24" x 9" tote. - (Will be my most common tote) I might have o1 pot on the corner tote.
Small fan placed in the space with a small hole under to help with RH

- 430 watt HPS still in its inline 360 glass case as the case is designed for VERT Grows.

Open ended as I have read this is better than venting.

I will use 6' poles in each corner of the perimeter of the square
in order to make 3.5' screens ta train into.

Short Veg after fresh clones root.
8 Different strains with from 45-70 day flower.

Heavy defoliating in mid and end of flowering.

Going in half of a 4' x 8' x 7' tent...

I'm open to suggestions and what not otherwise im hoping
I'm on the right track...

I got the tent up and just placed 11 clones into the ppks.

Love this tent. Cant believe how well built it is...

Shap shot of the work in progress.

20130110_024514.jpg20130110_024228.jpg20130110_024105.jpg20130110_024200.jpg20130110_024215.jpg20130110_024248.jpg


Not even a inch of extra space on the side's of the tent.lol

The skin weighs 75 lbs and super tight fit = hard build alone.

Worth it tho.. Setting up for more clones and flipping the tent to flowering within 2 days.

Starting with somethin like 5 ladies Vertical bulb.

All about timing guessing 3 waves around a month apart this season.

Thinking I would like to keep small mothers for next year and do a seed grow....

More DIY Pieces of the puzzle.

Made up a few more CFL hoods. Same as my original hood from last year.

That make 3 large and one small hood I will be using.

They fit perfect in both my DIY tent and closet.

Thinking way too many hoses running around the tent.
Figured I needed better way.

1" PVC pipe
Plumers glue
1/4" T- connectors

Using a 360 gal pump. (I now have 4 pumps)

Each line from the manifold will feed 2 watering rings giving me 16 rings to start with.

I made 2 manifolds & I might need one more as im thinking of running 3 different P.P.K's
