yea from looking at your floor space it all comes down to what style of grow your going to do personally i would use a tote get a big one that fits in there then place 4 - 6 plants in it train them go scrog and you can probably produce pretty good

sea of green again you can only fit so much plants into that area,
size of pots plays a big factor in overall growth and yield
But in all honesty 3 plants would be max if i was growing in that space all depends on veg times hell you could place 70 clones in there in a tote flip to 12 /12

as for smell lots of insence, here is a good thing which i use when drying boil cinamin, and cloves on stove helps for smell no matter what its going to smell

Hi there Happy Cannabis! Glad to see you have a thread going on here too mate. Mind if I pull up a chair to take a look at your progress?

Good that you're a fellow grower who uses the metric system. Hurts my head reading nothing but fahrenheit and inches all day long! Happy growing.
 
Hey! Thank you, would be great if I have you aboard.
Yeah it's hard for me too... I have to use converters and things to get an idea about inches,fahrenheits,feet,... :D
 
I have one question first. I was waiting for delivery guy for almost 3 weeks, because my ballast was kaput, so my flowers are pretty much the same size as they were 2 weeks ago, because they weren't under the light. Today I'm putting them under the light, so my question is, are they gonna grow normal from now on or should I just trash them and put the new ones in?



Ok, so today I finaly got 400w ballast and starter...
+ I found some nutrients laying around...
Nutrients
~ Big Bud
~ Overdrive
~ Sensi Bloom A+B


I made a chart which I will be following, if you guys have any better suggestion, please tell me. :thank you:

If they aren't all stretched, you should be fine using them.

My answer to this would be the same thing I said to this guy in post #4.

probably not what you're looking for.:tiphat:
 
i am on my third run i started my first with a 400w and quickly kicked myself in ass for not getting a 600w. i now have a 600w for veg and 2k for flower. i have started using teas last run and they help out. read the tea sticky in the organic forum you can make your own pretty cheap.

Yeah...you're right. You basically get double lumens if you choose 600W over 400W, but I will use 400W and see how much I will harvest.. Thank you !

mate isnt it an issue with transparent cups ?? once the roots start pushing and come into contact with light they can turn green and stunt growth ... ive seen people starting in transparent cups but they insert it into another one covered with tape this way the light doesn't mess with your new little roots and when wanted they can lift the secondary cup off and check the root growth .. just an idea
 
I heard that day after I planted them from a friend. I am transplanting them today or tommorow to 11l pots. So if that happened will they continue to grow normal after I transplant them?

I've used ona gel.. it doesn't really work. Your house will smell like fine weed with a dash of ona lol.
Ozone generators work but you can't have them in the same room as the plants and i wouldn't advise you using it in your living space sooooo....
A canfilter and a cheap vortex fan combo is really your only option.
Good luck

Around week 3-4 of flower and you'll be needing odor control. So you got some time.

I found a 6" fan and a 6" flanged tall boy filter at HTG for 200 for both. Works as good as the Phresh, which cost 180 for just the filter.

I also rock a BIG BLUE ozone gen that is connected in line AFTER the fan. All ozone is pumped outside! Cost is $380 for the 3 light 8" and it produces 10x more ozone than the other brand, which costs almost as much. Just in case you want to do O3 instead of a filter. I do both.

Rocketman brings up a good point about teas but since you have nutrients I'd suggest bubbling them in the water, most perform better when you do that kick starting all the micros ect... Also, don't transplant yet, they can cause problems but wait until they have grown enough to need to be transplanted. The roots won't turn green immediately so just transplant when they colonize, this will also make the soil stay together when you pop them out of the cups otherwise you end up with a pile of dirt and not a nice rootball. Transplanting multiple times is also a good idea, every time you pot up the roots have colonized the pot making an overall dense rootball by the time you get to your desired flowering pots. If you use this technique you can eventually start customizing soil mixes for various stages of growth, seedling, vegetative, and flower. If you can afford 2 or 3 more stages before your 11l pots, you will see great benefits.
 
I'm not gonna explain much, but the circumstances are that I can't continue with this grow for some time (hopefully less than a month).

Problem is that I'm moving, because I'm having problems with the house owner... So I will be in a new place anytime to december third.

I will UPDATE this thread when I will be ready to START...
