Hi Everyone,
First time grower here from New Zealand. Its been ridiculous trying to source any weed lately so ive convinced the wife to give me some money to sort myself out going forward. This is illegal here so will be done on the stealth in a garden shed out back (not allowed in the house).
Hard to find cheap supplies down here, keeping the budget below the $1100 mark the wife set me isnt happening! Hopefully the Chinese supplier can come through with the lower value customs declaration so i can save the $145 on import tax on the lights.
Few things..
The nute thing im still to work out though... how do you decide on your schedule and what nutes you have used?

- Tent to keep it easy and contain light and smells as much as possible.
- Ebb & Flow because i want to learn this technique going forward and it looks simple enough and easy to maintain.
- LEDs because i want to keep heat down (been in a house fire, scared fucking shitless of it now) and at 0.28c k/wh power aint cheap here..

- How high up should i fill my flood tray? If my tray is 100cm x 100cm and i fill to say 7cm (half tray height) then i will be pumping 70L. 100L res should be enough yes? I would like to change out the res once a week i imagine?
- Once i have some more money i will invest in another 2 x 240w qb kits so i will have a total of 960W. I will have to start out with just the 480w for this grow though.
- Wanting to turn some buds fast as its gotten beyond scarce here to find any, so am looking to start with clones, unknown strains at this stage, gotta do some deals..
