Hello all and welcome to my grow log! This has been quietly anticipated on my behalf. I have always wanted to start a little personal set up for myself and the girlfriend for the longest time but was always running into issues whether it be money, time, etc. I'm sure a few of us know the feeling. With the family in the business but quite the distance away I have never been able to learn much. I have grown once outdoors which was this last summer. I had purchased 4 clones from the local dispensaries and ended up yielding a good ounce off each leaving them in 3 gallon buckets with just water and good ol' California sunshine. But outdoor was not my thing. Bugs? Not on my medicine.. That's why this year I want to begin down the road of organic indoor medical growing. But here we go! This thread is literally being started from the beginning. I will be posting bucket sizes/ soil/ strains/ schedules/ and pictures when it comes time. Today I have made a couple investments towards my set up and am trying to stay on a budget. Now that is tax time I'm hoping for a little extra help, just not sure how the whole new tax hike is going to effect our hard earned returns.
Since this is the beginning I wanted to post a couple links to the equipment I will be working with.
As Follows:
Off brand grow tent 48"X48"X78" - Mylar Hydro Shanty Hydroponics Indoor Grow Tent
Apollo 600W Ballast w/ HPS & MH Bulbs
Humidity Control
NUTRIENTS - General Hydroponics Flora Series QT - FloraGro, FloraBloom, and FloraMicroThis is where it gets tricky. Anyone tried/heard of these nutrients I purchased? Seemed good for the price but then again I don't know squat!!
This is just the start, After I have acquired all my essentials I will be getting this baby up and running ASAP. I am so done with going to the local dispensaries and paying $30-$50/eight when I'm sure I will be able to grow a decent product for the girlfriend and I, with the help of my new home of course!! I am in this for the long run and hope to learn as much knowledge that will be offered!
!!! Thank you for checking my thread out, Check back often for updates !!!
