Well I am in the process which might take me up to four months total to get everything I need to bring the way I want to.
So far I have the tent and over 100 regular seeds so I will be picking plants after sex
I plan to put 36 3 gallon smart pots with female plants after sexing with 4 viparspectra 600 watt lights or 1040 actual watts. A six inch carbon filter system.A humidifier and a dehumidifier. Oscillating fans. Timers,a scrog net for when I switch to photos and plant Staples why I’m using the autos. Timer switches. A hygrometer. General Hydro Hydroponics Flora grow,bloom and micro fertilizer,calmag ,pH up and down. A small air conditioner seedlings and pot heating pads that are 4 foot by 20inches in three of them if needed during the winter and a heater if needed during the winter. Sol meter and watering wick for irrigation…let me know if I need anything else besides my soil for the grow
Also my carbon filter has selectable speed for the fan
I do also have 3 2 cubic foot bags of foxfarm soil
So please tell me about my grow as I am new but have outdoor experience several years. I truly think I have all the right Equipment to have and set up a good room maybe 2-3 times using the autos specified. Now 1 thing is I want have all this equipment until August but can’t wait and still need advice up until then so when I start this will be a prime grow
Another thing is with this setup what do you guys think my yields will be?
I think your going to need more light and a lot of room
More than 1060 true Watts and 25 square feet? Why for that many autos or only 4 photos?
Excuse me 1000 40 Watts
I thought you said 36 fems in 3 gallon smart pots
This is why I said I take it you mean 3-6 I take it sorry for the confusion
Why do you not think 1040 watts is sufficient?
That’s is a lot of plants, that’s why he says more light, I think.
36 Plants in a 5’x5’ is .69 square feet per plant. They would have to be clones, of a small variety that are immediately put into flower.
Plants from seeds will get crowded.
Even autos that are white dwarf crossed with Russian rocket fuel? In the fabric pots it’s 10 inches by 10 inch pots but these strains only get from 12-24 inches averaging 18 producing less than 3/4 oz.
Plus they are regular seeds so males will be cut out
Totaling an average of 18 plants or 4.5 each light
When’s this grow starting?
I thought you were starting with 100 seeds and ending with 36 females.
18 sounds more reasonable.
But, there are guys on here who Srog 1 plant in a 3x3’ tent, for contrast.
Yeah I don’t think you’ll need the scrip it will get too crowded in your space not much room left to spread the branches out
