Ok, I know I have been AWOL for a bit. I am changing the grow room to no tents.
I am starting this early, but will try to keep it up dated better. I have about 2 weeks before the room is in clean running order.
I will be using 6 autos pots. And for fun. @Myfriendis410 thought it might be good to do a comparison between coco and promix. So here is how this will go since I want to compare my GH nutes to the Jacks.
I will do the 4 DT photos, 2 in coco and 2 in promix 6.6l pots
1 of each will get jacks and 2 get GH
I have a pair of matched 260 QBs. So all 4 will get the same exact lighting. 2 plants under each light.
All 6 will get a 30"x30" each scrog to sit in
I will do the TXL in coco. And one will get jacks. The other GH. These will be under a combo of my QB 320 and a pair of 135s. I will have to show a picture to explain easier.
This is what I have right now. 4 clones from the same mom. i started 5 and took the 4 best.
These are 3 weeks old
I still have a ways to go on the room. here is a quick look of where I am at. I still have to get air pumps in, as well as figure out where the fans will go. I will tidy things us as I get closer to finished…
@Myfriendis410, It fit perfect. Thanks I will get it moved over a touch. And will fill one side today. I had to add a spacer to the legs. There is a cross bar in there I didn’t want to tear out. So I can put the drawers back in later if I want.
Thanks @Missiles, I will get to your journal this after noon. I saw I am about 65post behind
Thanks for the tag. I have been lagging behind on new posts lately. Just been kind of burned out, but I have a lot going on.
Either way, I’ll be following. I ranted a bit.
@Covertgrower, I hear you. I have been in the same boat. I will just tag you then. Since I only do up dates once a week or less lol
I should add here. These have been vegged on the gas lantern light schedule since day 3 of their life. I plan on using it till they hit flower. After that. This room will be on a permanent 12 hour light schedule. And before any one asks lol
This is what I have been using. I used it for the last 2 plants in my other grow. I have tried it before and it did good.
Okay I’m super excited to watch this progress because these are exactly the type of comparisons I want to see even if the sample size is small.
I have to ask to clarify a couple things.
Pro mix, meaning promix HP?
Are you going to alter the promix with more perlite or do it as is?
In comparison to be fair I think the ratio of perlite would need to be equal in each medium as well as Mykos will need to be added to the coco/perlite as promix already adds them in.
Thanks. i am going to have to figure out how to still make this work. I over looked that 2 of the trays I need are still in use. I have all the DT’s transplanted. 2 are in 4.6 pots and 2 are in 6.6
I wasn’t thinking when i filled the pots or I could have still have done this better. I do have one in promix HP I believe. @Myfriendis410 could tell you as he is the sponsor there
And I have another in coco. both are in 4.9 pots. So I will do both in jacks so I can at least compare the coco vs promix.
@Nicky, I will check out the mycos in the promix. I can always add it in when I water since I will be top watering for a week. I can say. I know the coco will still do great with out it since I haven’t used it before. I do have that here too. Also from @Myfriendis410 . The promix one is the top left with the little mud patch lol
I would say the coco may have a touch more vermeculite than the promix. Here is some thing interesting.
When I was doing the pre rise of both. For the promix. I have to add water slow. it doesn’t take water very fast. it pools on top a lot longer than coco. Coco runs right through. At the other end. The promix seems to let a lot more water drain out. or at least at a faster rate.
I had for got too. When I pot the 2autos. I can do one in coco and one in promix too. And feed each different.
I will get it moved over a touch. And will fill one side today. I had to add a spacer to the legs. There is a cross bar in there I didn’t want to tear out. So I can put the drawers back in later if I want.
