Keifs Micro Vert- HID, Hempy, Cooltube, DIY Cab

Keif · Feb 25, 2014

Hey guys, I re-purposed my DIY micro cab (https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=271804) to run vertically and this will be my journal.

Nutes-
GH Flora Series
GH CaliMagic

Medium-
100% Perlite Hempy
Rockwool for clones and beans

Light-
150w HPS in custom cool tube rigged for vert

Ventilation-
Td100X fan, low setting
2 4" passive intakes
1 - OdorSok Carbon Filter

Box-
Custom Ikea cabinet

Here is how it looks now, I know the long hose is sloppy looking, I need to find some nice cable organizers or something I can use to mount it to the sides cleanly..

I MAY upgrade to a 250w HPS but I would like to see how this cabinet compares to my previous yield with the 150w.

Heres a small update. Still waiting for sex to show.

Here are the bitches! Yep, looks like 3 are for sure female with the front right plant still unknown, but no sacs. Usually males show themselves first, in my experience.

Super stoked on this ratio from non-feminized beans.

Here they are

hi

i only germed 3 of them during my last seedrun and received 2 females

looking forward to see them bloom.

on a side note - did you observe any temp increase after you rebuilt your setup from horizontal to vert?
i ask because i see your tubing is much longer now, wondering if it impacted the temps?

happy growing, buddy :smoke:

Keif · Mar 6, 2014

Yeah, it only went up a couple of degrees though. The cab stays at a steady 78-80 with lights on. That is about 5 degrees warmer than the room it sits in.

Keif · Mar 6, 2014

Heres one from this morning. Looks to be all fems!

Keif · Mar 9, 2014

The girls are growing up so fast!

Sweet! Looking good Keif! :tiphat:

Keif · Mar 9, 2014

So I have an issue, I use a wifi timer and something reset with daylight savings today and the light stayed on for an extra 4 hours. They look a littke stressed but i just flushed them out and gave them water. Should I resume my 830-830 flower schedule or adjust to 1230-1230 since that is when I shut the light off today?

DamnUglyDogE · Mar 9, 2014

I would stay the course and keep a close eye on them.
8:30-8:30 like it never happened. 2 cents..

Looking good in here,bro..

Keif · Mar 9, 2014

Thanks man! Appreciate it, this hasn't happened before.
