Looking for Brainpower to help with shopping list. Big inddor Growop

[coopgrowop3]

Hi guys and girls of icmag.

Until recently i have been able to visit non-international websites for help/advises regarding these things. Now that news where made that the police had infiltrated the servers and taking notes on who was who on the website they shut it down.

Therefore i am looking for your help to help me with inital brainpowers due to it being a rather large project and i dont want to fall short in the end because i wasnt experienced enough or something like that to put together a list of things to purschase and think it through


What i am thinking about is doing is cashcropping, like making good money, with sustained quality. My main two tents that i have been thinking about should be 120cm in width and 360 in lenght. There should also be a tent for really small cutlings and another tent with cutlings that have rooted and allow them to grow some. the best way to cashcrop is to have mothers and taking seedlings and not giving them much time to vegitate and maybe running on a two week cycle.

In each of the bigger tents i was thinking about using 3x600W HPS, and something smaller in the other tents. 11L square pots for the big grow tents and obviously pots adjusted for the situation on the other plants (Mother, seedling and small plants)


This that i have been writing is only ideas. if you feel the need to change anything when looking at this and thinking that is crazy, please tell me.


I have about 25square meters to work with in terms of space.

Now i do have some equipment lying around.

3x600W lightbulbs

4 generators (Dont know what its called in english thatgoes along with the HPS lights)

1 Cooltube to cool the lights.

Lots of Temp/moist meters

Switches.

Extension cords

Suspension rollers for the lightning fixtures

Air fans that you use to suck air through the cooltube. ( in different sizes and strenght. Some do 300 cube meters of air someone does up to 800)

all the pots i will need

small cuttlings water/moist feeder ( like small grow room that stops the moist from going anywhere + sprays water on the roots.)

Lots of airflowtubes that you put between the air fan and the cooltube for example.

One small kneehigh tent that can be used for seedlings

I also have coal filters in two different sizes. One industrial sized and one smaller.

i am sure i have more but this is what i can think about.

This is the equipment i would like for you to take into account when brainstorming about how it should be done, or how you would have done it. For one reason and that is my initial investment can not be superbig considering i just bought a pretty expensive apartment for this alone. I have about 3.150USD or 2.875EUR to spend on additional equipment to complete my setup and make me ready to set it up.


If you have questions, please ask me. I will disclose any information about this project aslong as i keep security n1.

If you want to discuss this project you are also very welcome.

Thank you!

How much growing experience do you have?

 

[coopgrowop3]

I have done it two times before. Once in a clauset. small space. Another time with 110^pots or something.

I have never done a rolling schedule like this. The one with 110 pots was from start to finish. Therefore i want advice on how to set it up, for example. Do i need a couple of weeks for every seedling to vegitate after they have made roots? should i go for one big tent for flowering or two smaller like i write. All these questions you know..

I recomend organic and temp moderated and as for light,well that is the defining factor!

Hi! Thanks for the reply.

As for the organic, i am guessing organic based nutrition or no nutrition and all?

Temp moderated must be selfadjusting fans or do you simply mean a well ventilated space?

I know light is essential and initially what i can buy is 600w, in the future this will be improved either by big LED or 1000W HPS

So: L.E.D's, CMH, H.P.S,merc vapour, quartz halogen, neon, maybe some others - yet in a balance to suit the specific plant(s). OR
the best you can get to the plant(S).

 

[polyflowerbud]

I'll see if I can reply soon

Do you think i will miss out big time if i dont use different lightsettings in the same tent?

I mean 3x600w for something measuring 120x360cm, that must do right?

For seedlings and mothers i was thinking about CFL or maybe lighttubes ( Dont know what theyre called, but reminds about CFL but long small tubes)


Please do see if you can make time to post a small text on how i should think when setting up a rolling sog of this scale, and also consider what items you would have bought. Thanks in advance.

 

[polyflowerbud]

you certainly won't miss out much at all actually, you know that last little bit, or that little bit extra- sorta thing

[polyflowerbud]

that does a very good job indeed~ the rest comes at the time at the place- YES

 

[polyflowerbud]

the organic thing is that it allows expression of individual plant traits that would otherwise be impaired without the broad spectrum of elemental compound to draw from- so you know that entails

Hi thanks for the reply. As i told someone earlier, i got hands on when to chop them done, search good genetics, and knowing about Ph values + nutrtion schedules.

i will be using TOP/FiM method aswell. i just need the initial thinking on how i should proceed from having an idea to buying the equipment and making sure i dont think entierly wrong.

Your in for a lot of problems....
You should have figured out how to grow small scale first before even thinking about this.
I hate to be negetive but the god actually might be right, might be smarter to get a job.
You have gone about this all backwards.
You bought equipment an have no idea how to use it.
Its like me going to a forum full of firefighters an saying hey I got a hose how do I start fighting fires?
There's tons of training an knowledge that comes with it it's not just holding a hose....lol
You need to start small understand the principals then spend tons of money on a grow isn't so crazy.
I do wish you the best of luck
If you can post as many pics as possible of the grow area equipment etc...
Your setup will be highly dependant on the area you chose.
There is no easy way each spot Is completely different an requires different setupost to run right.
The knowledge you aquire over several small runs prepares you for these situations, there's really nothing else that can prepare you for what your trying to do.
You have to crawl before you run!

Run a mom tent, a veg tent, and a fLower tent.

Run a mom tent, a veg tent, and a fLower tent.

My Phone died whole responding to you. Will get back after work to discuss further. Anyways thanks so far!

 

[coopgrowop3]

Run a mom tent, a veg tent, and a fLower tent.

Sure, so if i would run a setup like that, how many mothers would i need to sustain 240x360cm flower room? Do you think 6x600w HPS is enough for the flower room?

How long should i vegitate for after the seedlings have rooted? Should i switch pots as they grow.

Do you think one, two, three or four week cycle is the best?

Mother -> Seedling (10?days) -> Vegitative(2 weeks) -> flower until harvest. Any adjustments?


I will be groing in soil atm the momement and the invest in hydro.
I will also use nutrients and flush them last 1 1/2 week.

 

[coopgrowop3]

Dont know if double posting is allowed but i will be reading lots of basic guides and and also looking at other sog grows to get better knowledge but i just wanted to start here, get ideas flowing and tips and tricks on how it should it be done...

 

[Shcrews]

i think 6x 600w lights will be good for that space.

use this timeline: (1.5 weeks for clones to root + 3 weeks veg + 9 weeks flower) puts you at 13.5 weeks total per harvest, so if you take new clones and also refill half your flower room every 4.5 weeks you will have harvests monthly, like clockwork, as long as you choose a strain that finishes in 9 weeks, and dont have any problems or delays


veg in 1 or 2gal pots

flower in 3-5 gal pots or soil beds

at least thats how i would do it with that timeline, using soil

 

[coopgrowop3]

If i can put 5plants on the width and 9 in lenght on each of the flowering tents, how many mothers do you think i need to supply that demand? And what lighting should be suitable for the mothers. Besides, should i use a "Small closed room" for clones that sprays water on roots and holds humidity?

After seedligns rooted, can i put them straight to 1-3 gallon pots and then move to the biggest pots?


Regardning nutrients, starting when veg time starts right? And using blue HPS lights?


Got any strain tips for 9 week flowering?
