So going in through the new year gonna be expanding my room pretty quick within the next two months. I started a journal in wrong spot and title deffinatley doesnt fit it any more. So I am starting in the correct spot.
*Equipment:
-8 Qb 132 boards 4000k fixture (veg)
-4 qb 288 r specs (flowering)
-4×4 tent
-6inch ac Infinity intake fan.
-Vornado tower fan
Vivosun tent clip fan
*Ordering this week and next:
-4×8 tent
-RO machine( have been getting water from work )
-8 PLC strips for a 4 board 4 ft fixture( as soon as pre orders re open) I wont need them for about 2 months.
Running in veg area I have 6 california connection tahoe og feminized seeds already topped once.
In my 4×4 tent starting pre flower I have 3 Star tribes by Rythm and 1 unknown seed from my brother. I will post pictures of them tonight.
So I will have about 500$+/- left to spend, wondering if anyone can think of anything I’m forgetting I will need a couple more fans for my 4×8. Not sure if I will need another 6 or 8 inch intake fan or if I can split my 6 and run both tents off that? Any input anyone has would be much appreciated.
Plan is to after this harvest turn my 4×4 into veg tent and use the 4×8 for my next harvest.

Thanks, intake fan I dont currently need my room stays a pretty good temp over winter with negative pressure and fan in bottom vent hole facing inwards, my exhaust is vented through my attic door, temp controller I have a ac infinity controller for now but eventually will upgrade. Do i need to go with an 8in for a 4×8 or a 6 for exhaust? Fabric pots i have 7 gal but your correct seeing the ones im flowering now I’ll def need bigger pots. Soil ill buy when transphering out of 1 gal pots. Currently using CYCO nutrients till they run out ( probably after this harvest and current veg ) then will switch to different line I think except for swell and maybe Suga rush, ph meter ect i have most of that. Should of added into first post but am at work and got a little side tracted while writing
I found the yellow and black heavy duty yellow and black totes on sale at home depot. At some point after these 2 runs I plan on going back to hydro but gonna build my own rdwc system an these will be useful I think for that. Big 55 gal one i can use in basement for ro water or i have a uline recycling 50 gal trash can thats new with flip lid I could use also for water res.

Oh and yes each tent needs it’s own fans, don’t share that. Independent controls to regulate their own areas

Oh yea always building, if your gonna do it might as well do it right( well attempt to at least ), spend about 700$ a month on buying bud for me an my wife so if I can prevent that it will all just about all pay for itself in 2 months maybe 3. That and its fun to do and amazing to watch!

Tahoe og update all are healthy bushy and growing extremely fast. About 4 days in after flushing the old cyco nutrients out and switching to fresh Emerald harvest nutrients I can tell a big difference.
Will post a pic of my flowering star tribe tonight when lights come on
