Whats up ic I'm back to share a perpetual grow which is really just getting on the way. Grab your and enjoy the show....
The bloom rooms I am about to share with you measure 4'2" x 4'2" x 6'8" (119.952 cubic ft) they are built inside of a 10x10x7' (700 cubic ft) room which is completely sealed up, aside from the active exhaust and passive intake. I have a 8" vortex 747cfm installed with a 8" carbon scrubber and 8" duct muffler like this --> scrubber--> fan--> muffler--> outside of room. The passive intake hole is 16" to give good air flow.
Each of the bloom rooms house a 1k hps in a cooltube with hortilux bulbs ran from a 40amp intermatic hardwired timer board. I have a 6" 440cfm inline blower pulling air from inside the main room, through the lights and back out the tents to the main room, I have the tents linked together with a piece of 8" hard ducting. In one tent I have 2 3" bathroom exhaust fans pushing air out of tent #2 and tent #1 I have 2 6"x10" vents installed as the passive intake. Basically airflow is set to move from the main room through the tents and back into the main room.
Here are some pictures of the 2 bloom rooms!
The veg room measures at 6'x3.5'x6' (126 cubic ft) I have a 600w hps with hortilux bulb currently, Going to add either a 400mh or some floresent tubes for the cloner and moms. The 600w is for pre vegging the babies for the bloom rooms. I have a 120cfm bathroom exhaust fan installed pushing air out of the room and I have a 6"x10" vent installed for active intake.
I use an easy cloner replica for cloning. I use plain bcuzz hydro mix with added earth worm castings 2 cups per bag of bcuzz hydro mix (4cf) I believe , for starting freshly rooted clones, I put the fresh rooted babies into 16 oz cups to get them started, 10-14 days in the cups and they are ready for the bags!
The soil mix I use is the following
1 bag foxfarm ocean forest
1 bag foxfarm happy frog
1 bail bcuzz hydro mix
1&1/4 cup blood meal
1&1/4 cup bone meal
4 cups earth worm castings
3/4 cup of powdered lime
20-30% chunky perlite
Important
Mix it really well, When you think its good mix it some more!
Now let's get to the growing, Currently I have the following strains.
Urkle
Ecsd
Grapefruit
Schrom
Shire
Chem D
Chem 91
Abusive og
Pre 98 Bubba
Katsu Bubba
Lemon Drop
FFA
West Coast Dog
Dsdv2
Jacks Cleaner
Blockhead
Cheese
STU
Most of the strains listed above I just recently abtained and just got them rooted and planted into cups. I have had ecsd, urkle, pre 98 bubba, ffa, and chem d. I recently built the new rooms and while I was building the rooms I had rooted one clone of each to make mothers out of, Well I took my good old time building the rooms and left them in cups for about 40 days. Then to make matters worse I obtained the katsu bubba during that 40 days, Needless to say it come fully loaded with mites. Me more worried about getting the rooms finished up continues neglecting the babies without notice that mites were taking over. That toppled with rootbound & nute deffeciency as well as lack of proper climate left the momma's looking pretty horrible.
I had to transplant them quickly into the bags using the mix above, I stripped down a lot of the mite damaged leafs and sprayed them down really well with azamax (I mixed 10ml azamax into a 16oz spray bottle) What a way to start off a new growroom...
The plants after being stripped and washed off real good!
Look what I stripped from the plants before washing them down!
Since the above I have taken new clones from each of the above mentioned plants. Plus I obtained all the others listed in the current momslist above. I have those all rooted and ready to go, I also got the old momma's back to health, I decided to throw them into tent#1 and use them as my first round. I also have 16 urkle rooted and in the veg room in 3 gal bags, These will be put into tent #2 soon as the girls in tent#1 are 35 days into flower. They have just been flipped so they have a bit to go yet.
Here are some pictures of round number one!
I know your thinking man that canopy looks like crap, Me too But its a sacrifice I am accepting, I have 2 urkle 1 pre 98 bubba 1 ecsd 1schrom 1 ffa and lastly 1 chem d in there so its gonna be a mess. Round #1 is just a get the ball rollin deal, after this its one strain per run per tent.
Now here are some pictures of the veg room, I have 16 urkles in 3 gal bags and all the freshly rooted moms in cups on the right. Then I have some others in the cloner on the left in the pics below.
Ok everyone thats where I am currently, I will keep the updates flowing, Feel free to drop a line when you stop by for a view, Until next time be safe and take care!
