hey y'all.

So this is my first grow only ever grown outside and always done very well but I know like everyone else it's harder to control a room with your ac nutes and what not.

The grow

8 1000 watt DE Nanolux fixtures.

Nanolux DTU unit to control lights and track my humidity and temps.

9 Nanolux RTU dongles one for each light for the wifi feature and 1 for the DTU controller.

1 8 inch industrial carbon filter and fan.

45 5 gal smart pot.

Nutrients
Nutrilife micro, grow, bloom

Cal mag + stop after week 2 in flower. 3ml per gallon

Epsom salts. 1 tsp every 5 gallons

Pure essentials black label enhancer only use during veg stuff is potent.

Vegamatrix Hard n Quick twice weekly 10ml per gallon. Week three of veg to week 2 flower

Grotek monster bloom wk 2,3,4,5,6 of flower only 1 tsp for every 5 gallons.

Mammoth p microbes 15ml per reservoir per week beginning to end. Each res is 100 litres

5 co2 canisters I didn't want a burner in my basement.

Four Honeywell g force fans

3 12,000 btu floor model fans, heaters and dehumidifies. (Ran out of money for the mini plot installation, but have a 36000 btu mini split.)

two hurricane oscillating fans

One Ona Filter and fan for outside the room just in case smell leaks.

Room is 20X14 almost 9 feet ceilings
Room has been painted in a matte white white paint 95 percent reflective. Whole room had been studded, insulated and vapour barriered wife doesn't want the smell through the house.

450 bamboo pieces for the grow.

All plants will be vegged for 4 weeks and then flipped over to 12/12 for flowering. I have 40 Girl Scout Cookies and 5 White Rhino.

I use 2 viparspectra 300 watt lights for the clones.

Yeah that's the grow and I'm hoping everyone enjoys and along the way if I need some help I can ask some of you.

All the best and enjoy.

Not being disrespectful, but you said money got tight? Lights alone will cost you anywhere from $750 a month on up depending on your rate, and that's just the lighting.
Just expect to fork out 6-7 grand in utilities before you see a harvest three months down the line and best of luck.

Not trying to start a fight but the utilities won't even be close to that. I have a friend with 6 lights legal grow and his is about 600 a month when begging and 500 per month when in 12/12.

I'm on a budget of what I can spend before and spend during and it's all about my meds and the two others I grow for who pay part of the bills as well.

We will see but I don't see the bills being anywhere near that high. I just asked a grow collective group I'm part of and someone's running 10 lights gravitas DE and he said he's like 700 a month for lights and he said the water is manageable. I bought enough nutes as well to last me the year.

So the clones and the ones in the back are space genetix seeds gorilla critical.

The room just needs the floor put in. The fans hung and a piece of drywall patched where the electrician hit my water line and I'm good to good.

Those clones look so fragile at this stage.
Looking forward to seeing them grow.
Kill it!

Not trying to start a fight either, just some suggestions. It will take a min of 3k of cooling to cool each of those gavita's so there is 24k of cooling need off the bat. Running a sealed room you are looking at another 10k in dehumidification .
Wish you the best of luck with your endeavors.

What I would suggest is using fall/winter,spring air and making a lung room . Make a lung room ( on aUNI filter have it suck in cold air whenever it gets above 70f) when it's winter it will only turn on for a few seconds to make a room cool enough but you don't wanna make your room directly hot with cold air.and then have 1-2 carbon filter intake mounted above on a temp probe that is set for 75f ( for flower room mounted in lungroom) and that's only way the room can intake into the lungroom . Then when room is filled with pressure ( if room is truest pressure proof, gotta use outdoor doors!)



The key this when your negative presssure is filled in your room have a carbon filter mounted inside the room for only access out . Yes the room for a sealed room a little harder but 10x worth cost of a stupid AC cost




I run 10 DE without any AC , but I do not run my room in the summer ( clean the room and outdoor season)

Update the clones are doing great, Sunday at 7 pm will be a week since they actually rooted and were put in the solo cups. Room is all fixed up flooring going in on Saturday.

Only bummer and I'm kinda pissed cause I was stoked only 4 of the 10 seeds from Space Genetix popped so far I'll give them a little bit longer but it's not looking good.

All in all I wanted to say thanks to everyone for words of wisdom, but mostly just for being able to rely on you all and give me the knowledge where I lack and the ability to change things when needed. I appreciate everyone for the comments.

Happy growing

Hey everyone sorry about the late posts. Life is just getting in the way of this grow for me right now. But here is an update of the ladies. The got a 5ml foliar feeding from vegamtrix Hard and Quick at 4 am before I left for work.

Most have been topped of fimmed some just some tying down and other super cropping. I want to see how well the strain takes to them but the ladies look great and I'm hoping the vegamatrix foliar can speed up and stack on more bud sites.

Happy growing.

Did you level out your lights? I highly recommend you do that. Even looks like your light spacing is hella close. Happy Growing

I was just reading your first post, imo opinion I'd add afew more wall fans and with you plants that small I would save the power and also start with less lights, but turn them down to like 650-700 until those plants get alittle bigger. You'll more than likely pay over 1000 a month for power.

The lights are 3.5 feet from one another just followed the manufacture to be between 3 and 5 feet apart for overlap.
