Hello,
I'm just getting everything planed out for my first indoor grow and looking for a few pointers.
SOIL GROW
Strain -indica or hybrid (something around 3')
# of Plants - start with 10 fem seeds
Grow Type - Soil
Grow Stage -
Bucket Size -
Lights - will probably go with the Mars 11 900w
Nutrients - General Organics
Medium -
PPM -
PH -
RH -
Room Temperature -
Solution Temperature -
Room Square Footage - 4x3x5
Pests - None Known
1.The room will be set up under the stairs to the basement. It will be inside a storage room thats already there. I just need to put a couple walls up for the sides. I was going to line everything with vapor barrier to help keep moisture in that area then cover it with Mylar for a shine.
2. I was thinking of using a tarp zipper for the door or getting some Velcro to keep the grow door closed and sealed. the storage room isnt 100% dark with the doors closed at this point but I cant see my hand in front of my face so not to bad.
3. Ventilation, The room is currently 16c (I guess i should be using Fahrenheit? 61f) it moves a little between 61 and 64.5. I was going to use a 4" Charcoal filter with a control switch to vent out (60 cubic feet). Originally was going to vent it into the storage room but im concerned it could eventually cause problems in the grow room with the air just getting drawn back in. Might cut a hole in the wall and add a small furnace vent near the floor to send it into the basement. Im not sure if i need to add a cold air intake (also 4") or if enough air would naturally be sucked in?
4. I was going to use soil. I tried using a soil-less mix on some of my outdoor plants this year (tomatoes, hot peppers) but had better results in the soil. Could have easily been i wasn't using nutrients often enough. Figure stick with what I know and can try other ways later. I have looked at a few mixes on here but open to suggestions on a recipe.
5. Lighting- as much as i would like to have the best LED that's out there I just really need one that will produce well and is big enough for my space. I figure the Mars 11 900W should do fine for now and let me learn a few things before I spend the big dollars. I dreamed about the Dominator 2 last night. My gut says yes but the wallet says no.
I think that's it for now. I feel like im on the right track and just need to get started. Im out of town for a bit so it will have wait a bit longer. Any comments are appreciated.
Peace
I know im a day late but lots of love for any Vets out there Canadian or American
