Hey everyone, welcome to my garage grow. This grow is isn't going to be perfect in respect to the climate, my geographical location presents many challenges one of them being how cold it is and the location of our furnace and water heater - they just so happen to be in the garage a few feet from the plants. I have constructed a make shift grow tent that i'm using for vegging, which actually works pretty well; either way, the tent is about 5 x 5 x 9.5 and will house 5 - 6 mother plants under a 600W MH. The Flowering room is located in the open portion of the garage and ill be utilizing a Fluence Bioengineering Spyder 2p - I pick up two of these bad boys earlier this year and they have been doing work! I've been a bottled nutrient person for about 10 years and just recently decided to give the no till organic growing method a try, its seems especially useful when looking at large scale production in both cost and labor. So I've decided to start 4 x 4 Grassroots living soil bed as a tester for something much larger. I'm also going to explore something a little more unique since plant count is not an issue where i'm located. I've never given SOG a try but looking at the quality thats yielded its seems like you can get the best quality every time, no larf, and less trim to pass off to extraction. I'm still cant decide if going 1 plants per square foot or 4 plants per square foot would yield a better crop, i'm torn between less veg time and slight bigger roots for bigger buds. What are your guys thoughts on 1sq ft or 4sq ft? anyone have experience?

Please feel free to join in, ill have regular update and would appreciate your feedback - Fallback out.
