Hey y’all,
I’ve been lurking for a few months now, decided it was finally time to make a journal to document this next round and to hopefully get some pointers from some of the OG’s on here(I’ve learned so much in such a short amount of time, this forum is the shit)!
For this next round I’ll be running some very special genetics that were gifted to me from a good friend of mine.
Papaya Cake- papaya x wedding cake
Bop Gun- papaya x dosidos
Strawberry Guava- papaya x strawberry banana
Tropic Truffle- tropicana cookies x mint chocolate chip
All of which were created by Oni Seed Co(my first time running Oni’s gear but everything I’ve encountered so far has been some of the nicest herb I’ve ever seen). Needless to say, I’m very excited
I have three rooms to work with, all of which will be redone as soon as my current round is done(day 28/60-70, didn’t want to start a journal on those since they’re halfway through flower lol).
My main room is roughly 18 x 13’(I’ve been working for almost 24 hours straight so I don’t feel like getting up and measuring), 8’ ceilings with a 10” exhaust and 6” intake. It has a window that I built a box for so the intake comes in from there. The exhaust goes into the window box in room B. I was rushed to throw it up so I could flower out this round so the walls need to be taken down and redone, everything needs to be insulated, painted, caulked. All that good stuff. I honestly can not wait because how it currently is kills my OCD on a daily basis.
My second room is a perfect 10x10x8’ but it has a little 4x3’ space coming off of one of the corners. Window box for exhaust/intake.
The last room is just a little 5x8x8’ area that I walled off and plan to use for mother’s and clones. Right now that is where I have the yung’ns. Under a 600w HPS(haven’t had a chance to grab a MH yet but plan to). Stays between 78-82 in there without exhaust but I have a couple of maxfans(8” and 6”) laying around that I plan on hooking up.
Still trying to decide how I’m goibf to utilize the two larger rooms. I just transplanted the Oni’s into 1gal smart pots a few days ago. I’m going to keep them in the small room until they’re ready to go into their 3’s(~2 weeks), then I plan on moving them into room B.
I have a growbeast that a friend gave me, brand new with bulbs and a phantom ballast(my friends are pretty dope ). For those that don’t know, the grow beast houses a 1000w DE bulb(powered by the phantom) nestled between two 315 CMH’s(ballast built into reflector). I’ve read that this bad boy will effectively cover a 4x8’ footprint, so I’m planning on using that for half of the room. Going to be using the 315’s to start and as they grow bigger, work in the DE starting at 600w.
The friend that gifted me the clones also gifted me a brand new never opened 1000w phantom package. I’m going to use that and one of my 1000w setups I’m currently using(hortilux gold ballast, subsystem reflector, ushio bulb) for the other half of the room. 8” exhaust, 6” intake for this room.
Alright I just realized how much I just typed, the ice cream cake(gelato x wedding cake) gets the best of me every time lol. I’m going to go take some pictures and report back. Hopefully someone reads all that and if ya do, I’m open to suggestions so please feel free to speak your mind!
