i am tweaking my grow a bit. i went and bought a 2ft t5 with high output lights to do the germ/seedling stage. i like to fuss over them when they are that little. as i am on 6-2 light schedule i check them three times a day and water as needed. i have a little seedling greenhouse from my previous grows that is tall enough for the plants to get their first 4 nodes in and get to the veg stage.
instead of putting an inch of super soil in bottom of solo cup i am only going to put in a half inch and then only fill with seedling soil to an inch and a half from the top instead of a half inch as before . this is to try to keep them in solo cup for only 3 weeks instead of the 4 or 5 which is what happened when i filled them all the way up for the transfer to 3 gallon pot. i will get my lights in the next week and get a place set up to grow at my house.
i still have my tents at my buddies house, two 4’x4’x74 inches secret jardins. i will still be using the 315 sunsystem ceramic light in the veg tent and the 630 sunsystem in the flower tent. i still have the exhaust fans for both and a filter in flower tent. both tents have a big floor fan but i have added a coup[le smaller fans to mount on the tent poles for the flower tent. my only job to get the stuff ready is a clean up job for both tents. i will have to go over the flower tent with peroxide and water because i had some seeds in the last harvest, not a lot but some so i figured i better clean this time. i had a herme my first grow and i didn’t clean the tent before i had to bring the second grow in so hopefully this will fix the bit of seeds i have. i will remember to wash the cloth cover of the filter also.
i will still be using “the treehouse’s” supersoil for this grow, it worked great for the last grow except for the part where most all my leaves were yellow 3/4 of the way thru flower. my feeling on that is that i did not get ahead of the nitrogen that blue dream notoriously sucks down and i think i will not have that problem with the strains i’m doing this grow. i will use terp tea veg and bloom if need be(when the plants ask for it).
i have also given up on the perpetual grow idea. from what i got out of the last grow i am now going to two grows a year and will start the 2nd when appropriate to the flowering of the first grow.
