I know some-ah y'all gonna laugh

Here’s my set up. 3x3x4’ plywood box. Matte white walls for reflection. Handmade trellis net with PVC and mason line. Side wall lights are 400 ppfd max.
Overhead light is literally a Ger-Love 100 watt overhead LED. A 45$ light
Fan is a mainstay hung from racks with light hangers.
No humidifier.
2 Autos going now.
Royal Runtz Auto
& OG Skibblez Reserve Auto
I don’t have money like y’all do to get Fancy shit.
So I made due.

Necessity is the mother of invention. Good luck with your grow

Looks good, and we all started somewhere at the beginning too. Most of my stuff is outside in the ground, so can’t get much cheaper than that…lol. My only concern/comment on your grow setup is it looks like the fan is blowing directly on that plant. That can cause windburn and dry it out. You definitely need the fan on moving air, but not directly on the plants themselves. Hope that helps. Good luck on the grow, I’ll follow along.

Anyone growing prior to legalization should know that’s exactly how its been done. You do what you do to make it work. Good job!!

Yes, I moved Skibblez Reserve up closer to front of box, so that back corner is kinda dedicated now for the fan. I hung the trellis too, I feel like making a 34" square screen of green net today, so I can have the box full next round.
Thanks for the tip. To the touch you were 100% correct, they were dried out

Thanks man. I’m hoping to get better. I grew Milky Way F1 last time, it’s the best weed I’ve had.
So I hope this Runtz holds up to its reputation

Idk about the runtz from that place but I’ve grown ILGMs version and it was a banger. The more time you put into the hobby the better the buds seem to get. :grin:

I really take alot of time .
I clean the box, spray antimold spray.
I used Neem to keep pests out.
I trim carefully.
I pH my nutes over about 2 hrs time
I’m careful not to over feed
I think.
But still I burned em lol
I love looking at them
I wanna fill the box up with 3 next time.
I love Runtz. It’s on my top 5 strain list.
I wanna breed Stress Killer CBD with it= Hill Country Runtz.
I’m rambling.
Permanent Marker has me blitzed

Good practice, I was more or less saying as you gain experience and get more grows under your belt. It gets easier, and the buds get better. :+1:

I love this micro grow ( OG Skibblez Reserve Auto) . Her buds are a week behind Runtz so she is week 2 Day 5, runtz is week 3 day 5.
Both are better now!!!
I’m eager to try the OG. Only 11 inches tall and got buds all over her ass.
