i just went with hempy buckets on these last four sprouts. will take pics tonight. seen people with good results from straight perlite. easier than DWC and almost worry free. Heck, anythings going to work better than what ive been trying lol. will be ordering more seeds soon, any suggestions on strains? i like short indicas or hybrids. No sativas for me, i don't have the patients for a 12 week flowering plant lol.
i have a new 4x8 tent but not sure how i want to set it up. don't know if i will have enough plants to use both 600 watt hps's. i may just use one right in the middle. i have an intake fan and an exhaust fan. i have a carbon filter but don't know if i will be using it. i live in the country so smell isn't a huge issue for me.
okay so here is the most recent pics of the grow. I took out the cfl's and installed the 600 MH. its about 4 feet above the seedlings. I also have my two swiss cheese clones that were needing more light than just flouros.
let me know what yall think. I hope these little ladies make it in these hempy buckets, they are my last hope to keep these strains I ordered. I was hoping to be finishing around new years day but I might not make that deadline. Im gonna transplant my two cheese clones into a bigger container tomorrow. probably 3 gallon pots.
I've never personally seen or tried straight perlite and am very curious to see how that works. No problem with drainage I imagine haha. Definitely along for the ride
