Marshydro Sponsored TSW2000 Multi-Strain Grow In A 3x7 Build With CArt: Seed-Finish & Clone-Finish

[CultivationArt]

Hard to not flip them. But the smaller clones are not going into flower and white wedding is just now recovered from topping. Just running out of head space. I figure I flip over the weekend, first day of flower should land around the first of may. Easy day count on the firsts. But as far as the beauty of the plants. They’re green and very healthy. Every type of grow medium being used from coco, to Promix, and fox farm. As well groden gro blocks. (I root my cuts in those). But everything is Growing in the right direction. And the perfect size. After 4 weeks of flower. The entire cab will be full corner to corner completely thanks to the @Mars Hydro tsw 2000.
And I’m only at 60% power. Can’t wait to get the new tent for the garage. Much bigger one. I was given the okay for a 5x5. But I want to run a 4x8 now for more space. But we’ll see.

I cannot wait to flower these ladies. Wednesday is flip day which should land transition around the first to the fourth.
Everything is drinking and feeding at a decent rate. Watering and feeding coco every day. Soon twice on the acekiller og and garlic. Digging the coco plants health tho. Expressing the fullest potential to what I see. Countdown soon people


Bruce banner is a rough strain to grow. But she’s in fox farm. The only one. However never had problems before. Even her cuts didn take. But taking cuts of an Unhealthy plant…. We all know that answer to that. Ima try again.
Also will probably put her in the ground and hopefully she’ll adjust and take off from there. But we’ll see. I haven made up my mind. No struggles anywhere else. Could be a happier grower atm. All is well.


Happy spring everyone

Are you planning to add a couple more of those lights when you switch to a flowering schedule?

I have the lights to add. But no. I’m not planning on it. Only if I have to

 

[CultivationArt]

Thinking about it. Only 2 of these lights will fit lol.

 

[TorturedSoul]

It's a 21 square foot garden? I think I'd want around 850 to 900 watts for a 12:12 flowering cycle. Somewhat more, if I wasn't using decent quality LEDs.

Huh. Your serious? No. not in that tiny little thing lmao. No way. 900 watts!

And it’s not fully a 3x7x6. It’s around 2.5x5.5x6 in a exact dimension. I fucked up reading my OD rather than ID when I used 2x6 for the frame. But man. You really push your dli huh? I don’t have anything to support that power of light in a tiny setup like that either. No co2. Not enough cooling not to mention the battle I’d have keeping 900watts at 82f. Yeah man. Lights are gonna stay in the boxes untill I get my 5x5. But I respect your advise. It’s just not for me. Yet.

Almost Wednesday

Couldn’t be happier we’re this space stands. Coco is really awesome. I’ll tell you that.

 

[CultivationArt]

Flipped the timer to 5am to 5pm. That was a hard decision actually. Either 7am-7pm I chose lol. Pics ina bit.


Also transplanted coco blue dream and coco Girl Scout cookies to their final home of 1 gal.

Oh. That's significantly smaller (13.75 square feet). My previous post was based on your mention of 3' by 7'. And my "in a perfect world" answer, so to speak. Also coming from someone who: likes sativas, and was assuming the flowering of photoperiodic plants instead of autoflowering ones. Then, too, I was thinking of garden temperatures that would be five or six degrees warmer than your target temperature. At 82°F, the average cannabis plant won't be able to process as much light-energy.

<SHRUGS> I haven't paid close attention to the actual output of that specific Mars Hydro product, either, so I suppose it might be somewhat more powerful than I was thinking. My target was 1,000 PPFD, across the entire space.

I suppose that might have been attainable without having three of them, IDK. Sometimes, one ends up with a "hot spot" (not really the correct term - light, not heat) directly under the center of a lighting product - so it ends up being preferable to run more of them, but at a reduced wattage/output, in order to keep things (closer to) even from wall to wall. "Back in the day," (when HIDs were king), going from (for example) a 400-watt HPS to a 1,000-watt one, you wouldn't merely be able to effectively illuminate a larger garden area - you'd also get a more intense light that would penetrate deeper into a canopy. That meant that there were advantages in running bigger lights, and different advantages in running more - but smaller - lights. With the current "lots of little low-powered diodes" style of LED grow light panels... the gardener does not necessarily see a significant increase in canopy penetration when going to a higher-wattage panel from the same manufacturer because often, instead of ending up with more powerful diodes... the higher-wattage product just has more of them. If that makes any sense.

Again, that was a "perfect world," optimum conditions response. One can certainly use less. I certainly would, lol (but not by choice) - the house I live in has a total electrical capacity that is equal to or somewhat less than some people's cannabis garden electrical loads .

Tonight’s their first long night Sweet dreams my sweeties. Wake up call is 5am light out 5pm. I’m stoked for this space.

 

[CultivationArt]

Day 1 12/12

Nothing has changed. Slowly increasing power 10% a day. Stopping at 90%.
Currently at 60%. Everything looks good.
Coco on same feed. 1.7 ec 5.8 ph. Still once a day. Ignore the Brice banner. She needs water and she can’t stand fox farmOF. I’m gonna transplant her outdoors tomorrow after winds. Full dedication to
White wedding
Garlic x4
Blue dream
Girl Scout cookies.

 

[CultivationArt]

Busy weekend. Man. Busy week period.

Quick update on these ladies. We’re going into flower but I’m not counting just yet. Other than that. 2.3 ec ph5.8 for the coco. And just tap with superthrive and recharge every other watering for the Promix. I’m really happy with this grow this far. Still at 75%. I don’t think they want anymore.

 

[CultivationArt]

Yesterday I’m starting my count. So today is DAY 2 of flower

Girls looking great. However. Garlic has a nearly stretch. Prolly 200%. I don’t wanna top? I guess tie em down?

 

[CultivationArt]

Day 3 of flower

Did some training. I hope holds. But seriously doubt it lol. But I’ll buy another trellis. I have a couple by vivo. But there outdoor 5x15. Or 6x15. Big. Lol.

Could cut one up. But I’d rather not. Just buy smaller new. Unless other suggestions. So for now. This is my mr quick fix. As for my blue dream and gsc looking to be iron Deficient. I’ll be shopping at my hydro spot to grab a good coir nutrient blend. Coco specific.
Maybe stick with FF. Or run canna coco. Iv read a lot of good. Or even order thru our current sponsors of the site. I’m keeping my options open. Only thing is. I’m on day 3 of flower. I can’t wait 5-7 days shipping. So I’m more than likely going to have to just pick up maybe some grow finish amounts. And then explore further options. More long term.


Todays watering in the coco. Not the Promix. Let’s not mix that up. Clear up real fast.



White wedding rbx1 Promix
Garlic breath2.0 x3promix x1 coco
Blue dream coco
Girl Scout cookies coco
Killer og kush#1 coco

All medias. Coco and Promix are amended with dr earth 4-2-6, mykos and growdots. Amount Varys with container size. 1 tea per gallon of media.

1 heaping tablespoon of dr earth per gallon of media.

Coco only:
Water. Ph 5.8. Superthrive 1/4 tea per gallon of water. Re charge every 2 waterings to renew the microbial content.

Nutrition. Fox farm trio. Grow, big bloom, and tiger. At an ec. 1.8-2.7. Altering back and fourth. Flush after 4 weeks. 1.5 gal with even sprayer. (I love that thing)

Watered every day. Sometimes twice


Promix only
Watered with 6.3-7.0. Depends if I use recharge. I don’t use ph down when I use recharge. Water when 80-90% dry. Fully drying out to half wilt every few waterings. Superthrive every watering.

No bottled nutes are added at the moment. Nutrition only is what I amended in soil.
Grow dots, 1 tea per gallon of media
Mykos and dr earth 4-2-6.

200% stretch is probably considered to be pretty minor, as random cannabis strains go. Yes, you can tie your plants down. If you them in such a way that the (former) top tip ends up below others, the plant will redistribute auxins that determine tip dominance, which should cause those lower ones to catch up, so to speak. But remember that the flowering stretch normally only lasts through the first 40% of the total flowering period. If you want some height on the plants, it's best to release them prior to the end of that 40%.

 

[CultivationArt]

What’s a random cannabis strain? Lmao

 

[CultivationArt]

Day 4 flower

Trained em over even more. This should be plenty for them until then “harden up” after stretch.
Still at 70% power. I don’t see any reason to increase yet. I’m going to wait till around week 5. I bump to 80.

@Mars Hydro The light is great. Preforms solid. I almost feel like the lights the only thing growing these ladies . I couldn be happier with the outcome. And iv already gotten a couple people on ordering the tsw1k for their first grow. This light out preforms my other lights. Hands down. Link to the light in post one.

day 6 of flower

 

[CultivationArt]

Just praying away before bedtime.

I gotta weed thru leaves big time. Clear up the canopy. It’s pretty dark down there.
