i guess we can call this part of the thread the mars mash-up...


the ts3000 is in one of my old lighthouse 4x4 tents and the mars hydro 5x5 tent has a sp150 and another led similar in size/coverage to a sp250 made by a member here on ic ichabod crane...


great thing about leds...it takes like zero time to set a tent up with an led light,some fans and a filter and basically run the whole thing off a power strip...up to 4x4 at least...




anyway,just did some up-potting in the 5x5 tent used for veg...

Seems the light in 5x5 tent is more bright than the one in 4x4 tent. lol.
we use diamond mylar lining, which can increase the light reflective rate. :biggrin:
Have a nice weekend. :huggg:

a little update from mars-ville...


first the 5x5 tent...everything vegging along nicely,have enough plants now to fill the mars hydro 4x8 tent when that run is done...i'm seriously considering buying four sp250's for the 4x8 as it's already spring here,and summer will be hitting soon enough...

and the lighthouse tent lit by the ts3000 at 2 weeks of 12/12...added a trellis net to keep the jungle somewhat tamed,took a plant out to put in my led room and may take another couple out and put them in the 4x8 when i harvest some plants from there to make more space...

a little too full really...the flowering run is sorta a throw together since i had plants ready but nowhere for them to go before they got way too big,which they did anyway...but space will be opening up in the 4x8 tent so i can always shuffle stuff around...

Right? Totally worth the bucks! Although the growroom may now look like a planetarium :) They are getting way tougher now too, using better mat'l.

It seems a little crowded for these ladies. But they will grow nicely under the care of TS3000:biggrin:

Uncle fishsticks,
After reading through your thread getting a better understanding about your style of growing. I noticed that you didn't discuss your drying or curing process.
You also chose the same genetics twice in this thread without mentioning any phenotypic expressions that you like.

What is special about those strains to you? You mentioned twice that you prefer multiple plants over one plant and quantity. That one plant grows are boring.

What is a maximum yield of one plant in your environment? I see you average a half a pound roughly per cycle, over 12 plants.

What's the allure of hydroponic growing? I ask this with all sincerity. Is it the constant babysitting of timers and ph balances? Being very interactive through the process?

I see you're very earth friendly with cycling. Yet your choice of growing is very technology driven and chemical oriented.
Without incredible phenotypic expressions of colors and smells.

Why wouldn't a person such as yourself be a great promoter of organic soil cultivation? A completely renewable and sustainable growing environment. I thank you for your time and reply.
I hope you and your family are all safe during this pandemic. I have always been curious about how each grower chooses their growing environment. After reading this thread, I'm honestly more curious than ever.
Peace brother, farmerlion
