Great Pot Smokers of America. Today I bring to you what so many of you have brought to me. Knowledge. A design, a system, and a process that I will prove to you is superb, and functional with minimal time, skill, and effort . I have taken all the best knowledge from all of you and have applied it to a system that takes into account everything I've learned, tested and have found to work the best from you, and some professionals in the growing industry. I've taken two years to tryout and simplify everything. And now I give it to you....Hope you enjoy...
A door..... Appears to be a closet.....
But...... Has a false wall that opens to the "Room"... I Always wanted a "secret" passage....
Our first stop is cloning.
I've done the peat pellets, done the rockwool, and I've done the aeroponics. aeroponics is hands down the fastest, most reliable, and error proof.
I will show you how I obtain 100% success and root in 5 days every time.....
I made a clone machine that performs the same as an EZ-cloner. except this one only has the 12 neoprene insert sites I need, fills and drains without moving the unit, and only cost about $50 bucks to make... All my clones have just rooted, and look beautiful.
(I will post root pics tomorrow I hope)...
IMPORTANT! Here is my formula for perfect clones:
Cut clones with at least 3" of stem.
Cut stem in 45, take X-acto and shave slightly on bottom sides of stem to expose a bit more "meat".
Immediately roll cut end in Rootech cloning Gel
After all cuts are done and in place, fill the clone machine with 10 gallons of 6.0-6.2 PH water.
Add 5 teaspoons of Dyna-Gro Pro-Tekt
Add 5 teaspoons of Dyna-Gro KLN
Mix well, then turn on machine. Keep temps at 76-80 degrees F.
Runs this solution for 3 days only!
On day 4, empty cloner, and fill with, in exact order:
50ml GH Flora Micro
50ml GH Flora Gro
50ml GH Flora Bloom
Mix each well, before adding the next....
Run this solution for 18 days...My clones are starting on week two. They are healthy, and doing well as expected. I will post pics of the roots tomorrow...
Here is my Mixing area.
The top shelf contains (2) 600w HPS ballasts to power the Bud room. The middle shelf has my GH and Dyna Gro Nutrient setup, and a DIY sink for convienince.
The bottom shelf has my 28 gallon reservoir for the bud room.
The Veg Room is a re-circulating drip system.
I chose this as the Vegging technique to establish a solid root system prior to inserting them into a DWC system during budding. This allows time for roots to work through the Hydroton rocks to reach the bottom of the 8" basket to prepare for DWC. This system will be on an hour, off and hour for 3-4 weeks.
The Nutrient Feedings during "Veg" for a 28 Gallon reservoir are:
280ml Flora Micro
420ml Flora Gro
140ml Flora Bloom.
Change once a week.....That is it for VEG! Simple, easy, nothing changes. It is perfect.....
Here's where I store my extra pots, supplies, and Hydroton...
Here is the Bud Room (right side).... (2) 600w HPS... I have an 8 plant capacity.
my temps are a constant 78 degrees, lights on or off.
Humidity is 30%.
My two mother plants.. I have them over here while I was fine tuning the Veg area....
Here is the controller area. It is a 8 port air pump. All the air lines and water lines are routed under the table, and each bucket has an Ebb and Flow fitting at the bottom. It is a gravity system.
Air Scrubber....
The reservoir is higher than the buckets, allowing gravity to fill all 8 with 3+ gallons each. In the middle of the table I have a hatch that contains a shut off / drain valve to empty the system each week.
The Bud Formula is:
Flora Micro 280ml
Flora Gro 140ml
Flora Bloom 420mlIt is the same as the Veg, except you flip the Gro and Bloom.... Also, Starting on Week 2 of Budding add 105ml B-Cuzz Bloom. Stop at the end of week 7... Once again, simple, and a perfect concentration without any burn....
Next is the SCROG assembly. Once the plants move over to bud, the SCROG panels will go in...
A few More Pics of everything....
Close up of mommas.
And finally, the first entry of the Grow:
WEEK 2 Cloning:Lights: 24hrs Fluorescent (2) 32watts
Nutrients: 50ml each of GH Micro, Gro, Bloom
Temp: 79 degrees
Status: Healthy, Roots showing and growing....
