So, I will start this a touch early. Firstly I need to decide the strain I wish to use.... Suggestions?
I have approx 25 or so different strains, I would like to keep this to a single strain for simplicity reasons. It will be used for the following four (4) primary medical reasons.... I do understand the difference between Sativa/Indica and what it does. I Feel these issues will be treated with my narrowing of strains; not in the order listed.
Pain,
Severe Anxiety,
Severe Depression,
Insomnia
Of the strains I have, I have narrowed it down the the following: * They are all verified strains through breeders*
1) Twisted Citrus
2) Purple Candy
3) The Best (Blueberry x The Purps)
4) Jungle Wreck
5) Northern Lights
What are your thoughts? I plan on starting them on 3rd Oct via paper towel / heat mat method after soaking them for 24 hrs.
The following is be my setup (I already have 99.99% of this)
Indoor/Soil
7 Gallon Buckets (Solo cups or similar will be used to start, transplanted into)
Soil - Debating one that I can get locally, mixed with perlite. (Undecided the mix, or if it comes premixed) (**IT WILL NOT BE MIRACLE GROW**)
Watering
Full Technaflora line up. Starting at 1/8 strength when the plants are 3 weeks info "full" veg mode. I figure there will be enough nutrients in the soil to get them to minimal of that stage, probably a lot further. 0 nutes prior. After the switch I will give the plants 1/4 flowering nutrients. They will be flooded and given time to dry out. *This will all be adjusted if any problems arise.*
Lighting *Air Cooled Room*
2x Mars Hydro 144's + Ratchets
1x No-name blurple (Supposedly a 1200w, 10w diode) - Measures out to approx 300W actual draw. (I will remeasure this to confirm)
Tent/Exhaust
5x5x7 Quictent *I need to invest in 2x monkey fans*
6" Inch 460 CFM Fusion Breath Inline Fan *Variable speed*
6" x 16" Carbon Filter 304 CFM (Max)
Extras *I do not need A/C* (I have two A/C's in the house; Door is left open. Cold falls, Winter I need to worry about heat.)
1x Small heater for the room, Located at the intake.
1x small dehumidifier for the room the tent is in. *Can drop the room to 35% RH*
Harvesting/Other
1x Shears for large cutting
2x Clippers (Fine cuttings)
1x Jewelers loop
1x Drying rack
Many Mason Jars ( Will hold 1 to 1 1/2 Oz per jar)
20x Bodeva 8gr 62% humidipacks
2x RH monitors
Too many labels for plants
1x Colloidal silver set up (Fem seeds)
Multiple pest diversion "chemicals" (can't think of the name)
I made a DIY cloner for just prior to flowering. ($40 CAD)
1x CloneX solution
1x Soil monitor (Light/pH/water)
1x Bluelab pH pen
1x Digital Timer
1x DIY c02 bottle set up
1x Freezer to save all the sugar leaves for later processing.
2x fans in the tent itself running 24/7
1x Freezer converted to drying "room" complete with a DIY filter (I will not need this), 2x computer fans.
I am sure I missed some small things, but overall this is what I have.
I appreciate any feed back of items that I am missing / should look into.
I will be upgrading this system soon with a 4x8x7 tent w/ 2x Mars Hydro Mars II 900's with a full hydroponic system. Or at least adding it if my wife gets her license to grow.
My first update will come the day the seeds are germinating. I will leave as much info as I can including pictures as I go.
This will be my first grow since 2006-2008. It is vastly different than a gorilla grow! So I am sure I will need some help along the way!
I hope you join in my adventure!
