This will be my 2nd scrog. The first one didn't go as planned. I waited to long to start the flower causing some problems later in flowering. My plants over grew my fence by alot causing most of my branches to fall over onto themselves. I still ended up with a decent yield but it caused alot of light blockage to the buds underneath. I'm hoping to do a little better this time around.
I'll be growing hydroponically using a ebb & flo 24 bucket, 55 gallon resevoir system.
Lighting:
(3) 400 watt HPS lights with Hortilux bulbs vented inline with eachother using a 6" flex duct sucking air from outside the room through the lights and back outside the room again.
(1) 430 watt HPS light with Hortilux bulb on a 6' light mover (unvented)
I will be using HPS for veg and flowering. Hortilux bulbs have both spectrums. Mostly red with a little blue. Works great for veg and flowering.
For smell I have a Carbon Can filter 100 with a 830 CFM fan blowing exhaust air through an 8" duct that runs the length of my growroom. I sealed the end of the duct and cut individual holes the entire length of the duct. This way the air in my entire room is always moving. I also have a ocillating fan mounted on the wall for added air movement. I also have one of those electirc ozone air things mounted on the wall. I really don't think it does anything though.
Nutrients (Flora series)
My 3 basic nutrients will be FloraMicro, FloraGro and FloraBloom
I'll be adding the following boosters as well
Hygrozyme
Diamond Nectar
Floralicious Plus
Liquid Kool Bloom
For my medium I'll be using Grow Plugs and Hydroton
This grow will be from mother clones I took from the last grow. So basically this grow is 3rd generation clones.
I'll be growing 2 strains. Grapefruit and Strawberry Cough from Dutch Passion. All seeds in my grows are feminised.
Since I'll be starting the flower at about 8-10 inches I decided to double up all the pots. The pots are only 2 gallons each, and I'm sure some of you are thinking about possible root bound. Hydroponic and dirt grow don't share the same rules when it comes to the size pot needed to avoid having your plant get root bound. I've tested out a few pots in the last 2 grows by doubling up about 3 pots per grow. The plants did extremely well. Hopefully I won't make a liar outta myself .
I had a little trouble getting all the clones I needed. Some clones are a little less then healthy. Some show signs of drying roots. I may loose about 8 or so plants. We'll see.
I planted my crop about a week ago. I'll post pictures soon enough
