Outlier's Indoor (Growbox) Soil Arjan' s Haze #3 Biobizz Grow Journal - 07/2014
Hi Everyone,
After some research and reading, I finally decided to germinate one of the seeds I bought last year. As I'm growing in a grow box, I don't have a lot of space. Also, as this grow is for personal use only, I won't grow more than one plant at the same time. But in order to increase the final yield, I will be training and scroging the plant.
I tried to limit my budget as much as I can. All the setup including, 250ml nutrients, grow box, Mylar covering, ventilation, air filter, cables etc. cost me approx. $400. That was the cheapest I can find. Still I think the outlet a little insufficient because the temperature is around 30C (outside of the growbox is 28C) during 18h period (MH is on). In order to prevent any damage due to high temperature, humidifier is set a little bit higher than its regular setting.
Before I start my first serious grow, I want to thank all the growers sharing experiences in this forum. This place is a great place to find all the information about growing.
Hopefully my journal helps other people want to start growing.
Please feel free to comment, share your ideas and suggestions.
Thank you.
