Welcome to the Factory Everyone!
I would like to share my multi strain perpetual grow with you all. This is a setup I have been working on for a year and a half now. It started as a small 2x4x5 tent for my wife and I to grow our own medicine. Since then it's evolved into 3 tents and has become my greatest passion in life. I believe in being humble and freely admit that I am still a rookie trying to learn the ropes. I learn best by trying things on my own so naturally I make a ton of mistakes. Please feel free to ask any questions or give advice. I don't offend easily and I welcome different points of view.
My current setup includes:
Flower
4'x8'x7' Tent- 1 600 watt MH and 1 600 watt HPS, 6in inline fan/carbon scrubber
4'x4'x7' Tent - 1 600 watt HPS, 6in inline fan/carbon scrubber
2'x4'x5' Tent - 1 93x3 TopLED Reflector, 4in duct fan
Veg
4'x3'x6' Wire Rack - 5 4' T12 shop lights 6500k
36 Site KingCloner - 2 2' T12 6500k
Temps: 70 Night/ 80 Day
Humidity: 40-60%
Is it aircooled? Yes, 6in cooltubes
Soil or Hydro? Soil (Subcool's super soil, a few similiar recipes, and Fox Farm trio)
Waterings: Usually every 5 days
Pot size: 5 gal, 3 gal, or 1 gal ( 1 and 3 gal are used in a SOG system)
Pests? Fungus gnats and yellow sticky cards for days! lol
What strain is it? Agent O, Blue OG, Deep Purple, Cheese, Blue Blood, Blue Dream, Critical Mass, Cotton Candy, Cinderella 99, Lemon Thai Kush, Sugar Black Rose, Purple Wreck, Norther Lights x Skunk #1, Tangilope, Ultra Sour, Wild Thai, Pineapple Express, and many more to come
To start this journal I'd like to explain the way my factory line works.
1.Everything starts with my 36 site king cloner. I take clones from teenage mothers to save space. My clones usually root within 7-10 days using just water.
2.Once rooted they are placed under T12's in a Dixie cup with a recycled soil that has minimal nutrients. They are given straight water for 2 weeks. Sometimes they will be topped depending the strain.
3. After 2 weeks in the dixie cup they are moved to a 1/2 gal pot also under T12's with the same recycled soil. They will remain in the 1/2 gal pot from 4 to 6 weeks depending on strain and which tent the plant is going to.
4.When the plants in the 1/2 gal pots are large enough to flower they are moved to either 5 gal, 3 gal, or 1gal pots. Some of these plants will be on the Fox Farm Trio and some will have Subcool's super soil on the bottom.
5. Harvests are usually done every 2 weeks. I'm working on breaking it down to 4 single crops every 2 weeks but right now I have harvests sometimes weekly.
And that's an over view of how the factory runs. Looking forward to using this journal to track future harvests to help provide myself better data for making decisions. Hope you guys enjoy it too!
