Hello Grow-universe, time to start the next crop! This grow should keep me busy for 4-5 months or so, maybe a little more. I really enjoyed the last time I grew out the GB, but I didnt make a mommy and want to this time, as well as take a wicked set of clones off her to fill the chamber. Hopefully in a bit more than a month, ill be taking clones, and in two months we should be off to the races with this grow. Yes, its gonna be a little slow but the process is fun so read if you want
Last grow I gave too much nutes too soon, and let the rockwool cubes stay too wet too much. I'm not changing much from my less than ideal summer grow as far as gear goes however. Ill use the same screwy mix of led lights, use my 8 bucket recirc hydro set up, and mostly just CANNA nutes. I am switching from clay pebbles to growstone, to try that medium out. Also will likely add one or both of my 600w HID fixtures we get to flower and it starts getting colder.
Started by cycling out all old medium. Removed buckets liners and resivoir. Flushed feed and return lines. Cleaned out all components. Reasembled.
Addedd the new freshly flushed medium to bucket liners 1-6. I ran out before I got to the 7th and 8th, but I'll have plenty of time to get another bag and fill the last 2 buckets as needed.
Once the buckets were full, and the water is circulating thru the whole system, I moved the little baby gorilla into her new quarters.
I have more lights on than I need, as you can see, but the load they require, electrically, is less than the heater I have to keep the temp up, and the heater pops the breaker on the occasion. When that happens the music stops, the remote access cameras stop and half the lights go out. (yes, I know monitors is spelled wrong on the camera, observant friends of mine) Then I gotta hike my butt out to the shop and reset the GFCI. LOL.
Thank you for swinging by and checking out my new grow! Im happy and thankful you are here!
