Hi all, I like to keep to myself and I don't post much, but the latest project is turning out great and I have to share a bit.
Here's the GG #4 ladies in their happy home, just flipped to 12/12:
Sorry I don't have a photo a little to the left showing the light stack. 3 1KW blue halides (ushio opti blues) in stacked cooltubes. Room is AC'd with bottled CO2. 21 plants total - 6 per wall and thee on the door. Whole room is 6x6x8' tall. The trellis racks are removable. vegged without them and I will train them though and spread the branches apart as they stretch.
For nutes I use grow-more hydroponic tomato dry powder (essentially the same as jack's hydroponic) with the standard calcium nitrate. That's is except for a bit of PHdown and some H202. This is a doser fed setup, meaning no reservoir. Everything is in-line with the plumbing, meaning no work for me to do and no res to worry about. Feeds a bubbler at each plant site, drain to waste. Here's the nute setup:
And here's a detail shot showing the in-line water filter, plumbing supply line, and booster pump (my water pressure sucks):
Working like clockwork so far. I'm going to keep the updates light but will post some milestone shots throughout flowering. Goal is 4z per plant, so around 5 solid units from the room. It's going to be a fun one
