Ok after months and months of reading this forum and a half assed 1 gallon pot window sill grow I think I am ready for the big leagues....
Some background info on the space... it is in a detached garage attic so temperature is going to be an issue. i am going to be insulating the roof but i am going to have to figure something else out in the summer. i am going to pull fresh air in from the garage because it will be cooler than outside.
for the winter aka NOW. i have a 150w ceramic heat bulb rigged to be sucked into the box. it might be better to just have the lamp inside without the air being sucked through it but i dont know yet. i will try both and see. the metal halide puts off decent heat so hopefully i wont have to run any sort of heater unless it gets in the 20s outside, which it rarely does.
Lighting:
-Veg: 150watt MH. 8 26w cool white CFLS
-flower: 600 watt hps - air cooled hood
Box:
- 4x4 DIY OSB
Strain:
- Bagseed @ seedling stage - 5 out of 8 germed(paper towel) and 3 out of the 5 are out and about. 2 more are slowly working their way out.
- i ordered some seeds but we are going to let the bagseeds grow out a little to kind of get the feel for it. the seeds we have are gigabud, strawberry blue, skunk #1, la woman, haze x hashplant
Medium:
- FFOF
- seedling we have neoprine pods in perlite
these pics are a couple of weeks old and we have since sealed it up and put reflective mylar up. do you guys think it is worth putting on the ceiling and floor of the space?
bagseed
already my favorite:
more pics in the coming days. ahhhhhhhhhhhh.
