Hey Lazyman,
First off this is truly a basement paradise my friend and I commend you for pulling it off.

My question to you is what is your growing medium, nutrient, and feeding regimen?

I am sure that this information is listed somewhere in the 50+ pages of this thread but if you could post it here and then maybe link to it in your signature I bet that you would make a boatload of people (myself included) very happy :jump:.

I look forward to going through this thread inch by inch when I have some more time so keep on doing it big partner.

Hey man, thanks very much, you're very kind to say so!

Yeah I've changed a few things over the last year and a half, but now I'm pretty happy with what I'm using, and it's cheap!

Medium: Botanicare Readygro coco, Aeration formula (out of the bag, no amendments.) From cutting to flowering and everything in between, one medium.
Pots: 4" pots in pre-veg, 2 gallon Smartpots in veg, 5 gallon Smartpots in flower (transplant at the flip to 12/12, 70-75 2-3' tall plants to refill 8 lights worth of flower.)

Nutes: GH Maxibloom powder, in veg I add some Maxigrow for more N.

Aside from that I use GH Diamond Nectar (humics)
Bleach at 1 ml/10 gallons every day
Dyna-Grow Pro-Tekt silica (must stronger than anyone elses)
Technaflora Magi-Cal (cal-mag) (must stronger than anyone elses)
In late flower I add A bit of:
GH Floranectar (pineapple rush)
GH Koolbloom powder (must stronger than ayone elses PK booster)
At week 3 and 6 I give em one shot of Pure Flowers (phosphites)
Flush the last 7 days with AN Final Phase

I use AN PH down (must stronger than anyone elses) and the silica for ph up.

Hey thanks AOD< nope no rinsing with the Botanicare stuff, I open the bag and dump a couple into a small wheelbarrow, and start filling pots! Simple as can be. If it's a known heavy feeder (Triple Platinum OG is RAVENOUS) I throw an inch of EWC on top of the pot either at transplant or within a couple weeks, keeps em green for a few weeks if I have to make em share a res with a lighter feeder (which is everything else.)

I think you will be happy with the readygro! It's not exactly cheap, I get it for $14.50 for a 1.5 cu foot bag, but it's also reusable. As soon as I get a bunch of it into my veggie garden I'm going to start reusing it and save myself the !$500 a month I spend on it.

Man, just about done with hell week. Chopped the jackpot at 55 days, and the G13 Haze was starting to mold so we took that too. At day 70 we took SSH, Triple Platinum OG, and Blackberry Cheese. All very nice. Here's a pic of my favorite triple OG:



And a couple other nice ones I liked:



Oh found a couple shots of some purple gorilla you guys gotta see:

Then we refilled flower with 18 pineapple thai, 20 purple gorillas, 12 SFV's, 9 OG Kush, 4 Sour Diesel and 4 Chem Dawgs, oh and one big Blackberry cheese mama. They were all at least 36 inches tall at the flip so they should get BIG.

Lol good eyes brother! Yeah I love me the Harmony remotes, the One is my third Logitech, lol.

Yep i had a bunch of purple gorillas sittin in my preveg room for months, finally decided to tranaplant and flip 20, they are now 4 feet tall and bushy! Took 80 clones off em last night, plus another 300 clones from pineapple thai, SFV OG, OG kush, sour d and chem dawg. Oh and I just stuck a tray of blue dragon, pure thai, Azura, and Chocolope. Ack! Too many clones! Also just bought a tray of ****** Og, those are going into my next veg run. :) gonna be a first, a whole run of just one strain! lol

Hey guys, sorry I haven't been updating this thread, I've been super swamped this year.

Wife is gone now so I am taking care of the house and critters, with the help of some very kind friends.

Indoor garden is going well, we decided that Triple Platinum OG wasn't a good indoor strain, though it looks good it ended up fluffy and with not enough smell. I yanked em all and sent em up to the outdoor grow. We just cut down the last of the flowered Triple OG's, Pineapple Thai and Deadhead OG from the last run, Super Silver Haze comes down next weekend. The Deadhead is truly a winner! Big, frosty, great yield and tall, done in 57 days too! The short pheno purples, but I like the tall pheno cuz it fits the garden better and yields almost double the smaller phenos.

Veg is now full of SSH, pineapple thai and a few randoms. I also put 72 Rascal OG's in there too that will be the entire following run.

Clone tent is full of a wide variety, most of which I will send to the northern outdoor/indoor grow.

Speaking of outdoor, things are going well there, the girls are mostly 5 feet tall, soil is being delivered today, and plants go outside this week. Joy! :)

Gotta go clean up my disaster of a garage, hope everyone is well and enjoying nice weather like we are! Cheers friends!

Oh yeah, we also built a recycling pit for coco at the basement so I can stop shelling out $500 a month in coco.

Also replaced the light bulbs in both rooms (ouch!) and am adding a second intake fan this week as well for more even cooling. Also trying Dr Nodes on my new crop in flower now that they are done stretching, it's quite a mix of strains so it will be cool to see how it affects bud formation.

20 Purple Gorillas
14 Pineapple Thai
4 Blackberry Cheese
15 SFV OG
9 OG Kush
4 Sour Diesel
4 Chem Dawg D

Whew! Can't wait to start monocropping, I will do Rascal first, followed by a full run of SFV. Looking forward to that for sure! :)

MM,
Thanks for such a detailed response my friend. I actually just saw it today. What EC do you run that Maxi Bloom powder at?

You know I have asked that question several times here and this is the most detailed response I have received to date.

Thanks for the details,
