I live in a small apartment, so everything must be to a minimum, including my tent. Also want to make things a little less complicated than more. So here's my thought about what i'm going to do, any improvements/changes that i should make? My grow starts September 2nd. : )!!!!

Can't break the bank but want decent stuff where it counts.
  • Light: Kingbright 125w w/ 660nm cree xpe: $140 after ship. Could get the one with IR and UV but if not necessary i'd rather not subject myself to UV light
  • Tent: 27 inches x 27 inches x 63 inches (205cfm). Good reviews on it. $70
  • Fan: AC Infinity Quiet self adjusting T4 4" inline fan with their 4" Carbon filter, both 205cfm $160 together.
  • Medium: Aurora Coco Soul Soilless (70% Coco Fiber, 30% Perlite, Leonardite, Beneficial Bacteria ) $20 for 1.5cu litre bag
  • Nutes: Canna Coco A&B (already purchased). Love the measuring bottle and that it's the same base veg through flower, fewer bottles of stuff!
  • Additives: Canna PK, Canna Cal Mg
  • Ph down: Advanced Nutrients PH down (it's quite concentrated). May have to go GH for a smaller bottle instead.
  • PH stick: Apera 209 Waterproof digital PH meter $45, booo. $$
  • Strain: C99 Fem, probably from Seedsman
  • Seedling grow: Small fabric nursery bags
  • Pot: 3 Gallon fabric pot
  • Scrog net: a 3x3 one since my tent is a little over 2 x 2
  • Humifier/Dehumidifier: Depending on which i need, a very small of either or both on Amazon.
  • Water: Tap water about a 7ph left out for 24 hours. Not sure my ppm yet, will know shortly.

The rest is okay: Mini fan, Curved coating shears, PPM meter, watering can, mini humidifier or dehumidifier if i need one,

Plan on doing 1 plant at a time, for consumption only.

Plan on using fabric 3" x 4" cut-away nursery bags for seedlings before transferring to 3 gallon.

Plan on mixing nutes in 1-2 gallon container can so i can mix ever 2-3 days and will water/feed every day.

I plan on topping, lst and scroging. Hoping to yield 1 - 1.5 oz per grow.

About me: Kinda impatient but i plan on messing with my Bonsai a bit more to keep me from over-loving my cannabis plant. Poor Bonsais. lol.

Yikes. I’ll be using a photoperiod and vegging for 4 weeks. I can do Red Dragon instead, it’s supposed to be shorter.

Thanks. And I’ll look into that bigger fan and filter, gonna cost a lot more and push me over my budget tho, could be tough.
