Story:
So guys its been like 2 maybe 3 years since Ive been on here. Glad to be back. Ive moved from Tx to CO so now I can grow without worries and man does it feel good. Ive had a few grows under my belt but its been a little time off so I feel like a noob again. I still watch grow videos on youtube and insta, so Ive nvr lost the passion for growing just had to stop because of living situations. Now I have a basement that has water connections and a vent already so this will be a lot better than growing in a closet. I got rid of most of my grow equipment so Ive had to get everything again beside my lights because I kept those. So here's the run down of equipment and genetics that Ive collected.

Equipment:

We are starting off small because I have a shed also that I eventually want to move the grow to because the wife isnt happy with me growing inside. But the shed needs to be insulated and needs power to be brought to it. So hopefully by summer we will be in the shed growing.

Tent: AC Infinity 4x2 tent
Exhaust: AC Infinity T6 with temp/humidity controller
Lights:
Seedling/Veg: HLG 65
Veg/Flower: 3 Chilled LED Logic Pucks on a meanwell 320w driver
hlg288
atreum 288( off brand hlg288)

Soil: Buildasoil Light Mix
Amendments:
Buildasoil Craft Blend
Crab Meal
Shrimp Meal
Kelp Meal
Bone Meal
Alfalfa Meal

Humidifier: Vivosun cool/warm mist
Circulation: 1 Clip on fan - going to get 2 more fans also
Heater: need to get a small heater to keep inside the tent
Environment Controller: looking into controllers but will prob go with the cheap ones for the heater and may get another one for the humidifier











Genetics:

Ive been buying seeds here in there even though I havent been growing. But now its time to get it poppin!

Stank Genetics: Stankberry
DTF (Durban Poison x ATF)
Ethos: Hulk Angry IBL
Thug Pug: Peanut Butter Breath
OMG Seeds: The 5th Dimension (GG4 x Clementine)
Mountain Oranges (Jilly Bean x Clementine)
Mephisto Auto: Beary White
Robinhood Seeds: Apple Wood (GG4 x Apple Fritter)
Apple Cup (BBC x Apple Fritter)
Square One Genetics: Kick Flip (Peanut Butter and Jealous x Purple Punch)
Frozen Fuel ( Tahoe OG x BBC)
GG Strains: GG Wedding Mints S1 (Wedding Cake F2 x Kushmints 11 x GG4 bx6)
Inhouse Genetics: Platinum Gorilla





Poppin Beans:

Decided to go with Robinhood Seeds: Apple Wood (GG4 x Apple Fritter) - Threw the beans in water today going to leave them there for 24 hours and will throw then in soil after that.



It was a 5 pack but there were 7 seeds in the pack. I only have space for three 7 gallon plants. Eventually I want a raised bed like a 4x4 grow bed in a 5x5 space but we will start here with the 7 gallons. More updates to come. Thank you guys for coming along for the ride.

Welcome back Amigo, nice start to your journal.
Glad your back my friend @DonChiefums20 .
:popcorn:

Stay safe
Bill
 
Great journal, Hela seeds and product, looks like your off to a good start...good job. Cool light to...Everytime go to a new grow journal there's always a different light lol so I'm curious to see how that baby does. I'ma follow along if cool and drop some humor along the way :snowboating:
 
Nice restart Don, lots of sweet genetics!

Thanks Otter, Ive been dying to pop these beans. I hope the ones that came with me when I moved were not too hot during the move. I forgot to move them to a car instead they were in the uhaul when I drove to CO. And it was so hot outside so Im sure the uhaul was hotter.

Hey Bill, yep there is a smoke detector and a carbon monoxide detector down there. I also work from home and my wife put me in the basement so I have an eye on the area for at least 9 hours a day lol.

Hey Hazmat, ya everyone has a different light for sure. Im curious also but Im sure it will do great. When I fired it up it was so bright definitely brighter than anything Ive had so far. But I guess thats not saying much. The most light Ive had in my tents is like 200W with 2 QB288s from HLG and that did decent but I always felt like I needed more. I got it on clearance 3 years ago and never got to put it together. Im glad nothing was wrong with it cause I never even took the parts out of the boxes.


Just stopped by to see how it's going @DonChiefums20 , welcome back.

I will be around when your ready to start. Always up for LOS.

Stay safe, and grow well my friend,

Tok..

Thanks for stopping by Tok. Glad to see you along for the ride any advise always welcome.
 
Grow Room Update:

I was able to set the tent up today. Went ahead and put the inline fan, humidifier, and the clipon fan in there. I know its a little early but dont want to deal with that stuff later. I still need to pick up some ducting soon and the carbon filter anytime before flower really. Also Im going to get some Rigid foam board to put underneath the tent so it doesnt have to sit on the concrete I think that also make the tent colder. My plats will sit on risers when they get put in their final pots so not really worried about them sitting on the floor but still want to take the extra precaution.

Also the beans cracked their shells and the tails started coming out so I went ahead and put them in soil. This is my first time using this soil its very airy and the water ran straight through it and the cups were still super dry. I will have to get some type of wetting agent here soon to try to fix that. Not sure which one to use been looking at a Yucca extract and some Aloe I cant seem to make my mind on which one to get.





 
Dude the similarities between you and I continue. I think I have that light you are use and I’m going to make a suggestion. It looks like you may not have the power supply screwed to the light. I recommend you do as mine fell off
The top and ripped the plug off the light and then I did it to the other side too and had to solder them back on. I’m such a putz. If yours is attached that’s cool it just looked off Center so I thought it might not be.

off to a good start ! nice lights, I run 6 of them, love em.

Ya Ive had that thing a while I use the power supply to balance it really. This is also the very first model they came out with there are no places to screw it down to the board not sure if they changed that later on. I thought about securing it with some double sided tape or something but the light is really temp once the ladies get their first few nodes ima switch the light anyway. BTW are you using a wetting agent at the moment?
 
off to a good start ! nice lights, I run 6 of them, love em.
Ima have to check that out Ive been thinking about just getting 3 more of these for a 4x4 or just getting the chilled led 5 or 6 strip. Do you have a journal up?
 
BTW are you using a wetting agent at the moment?
No but I ordered some concentrated aloe and I have started a cover crop.

Mine had the holes but I balanced it anyway and yeah I was doing something and it fell. It’s actually a decent light although not well made. I’m flowering under it right now and I’m actually surprised and the buds in getting.

Yes I flowered an autoflower under it before it did pretty well even though its a veg light.


 
Dope pics, was able to zoom in on all the goodness goin on. How long til chop?

I wish I was about to chop that lol. That was like 4 years ago. I dont want to get a medical card so I have to drive like 40 mins to pick up. Cant wait til my first harvest again. That will be the last day I go to another dispensary for a very long time.
