Help with led growtent setup

[stevec217]

Could someone add a shopping cart for a tent, 150-200w led, in vent and outvent with coal filter so i getsome overview of what i shud buy? Probably buying in my own country for lower transport and tax fees tho

Look up ac infinity. The complete setup for a 2x2 with lights and fans isn't a bad deal. The 69 pro controller is a game changer when you tweak everything just right.i think $399 complete

Where are you located?

 

[stevec217]

Looks nice, but i count see inline fan on the picture, and what is that netting for? Sog
And how many plants should i put in it?

I would choose ac infinty over vivosun mainly for the controller it comes with. Makes climate control a breeze (pun intended)

Next grow:
3 in front phenos(supreme lemon haze)), the rest, 10 autoflowers (mimosa) 2 hasnt sprouted yet. Got light dimmed to 70watt.
Should be ready for harvest early november

The other 2 sprouted 1- 2 day after. I will change to 7L pots in a few days, and was wondering about watering when the plants are so small in the big pot,, will i have to water less and more frequently the forst week intill roots have gone deeper??
I prefer water much at a time, and less frequently.

moist the whole soil after transplanting, for exemple water with 1L first watering in 7L pot, so the roots will always find water as they grow. then wait 5-8 days for watering again with 1/2L around the seedling this is how i m doing it the first 3 to 4 weeks, some people prefer to water smaller amount more often, you ll have to try and find what work best for you and your plants.

Then after the 4th or 5th weeks i usually start to water 1L every 3-7 days depending strains.

 

[trt92]

Repotted 4 days ago, gonna check on them tonight, will add some pictures how they look. Watered 1 litre like you said, with some rooting hormone

 

[trt92]

Also was wondering, has anyone tried SOG with an extra layer of pots on top of the pots in between? With maybe some smaller size pots on top compared to the ones under to keep plants somewhat same height? Seems genious for more yield

 

[HerbalEdu]

you're complicating thing way too much ... just doing more plant in the same space with smaller pot will do the job.

36 6x6
25 5x5
16 4x4

or eventually fill the tent with solocups ...

The seeds will cost alot

 

[HerbalEdu]

you can eventually make your own fem seeds, work from clones, few breeder have affordable strains when you want larger amount of seeds, you can try to get sponsored by a breeder also etc...

Wil find out how cloning is this run.. But think ill end up with just using seeds,, now i will have to put 3 mothers in 7 litre pots along with the clones in that very small tent i got... While i dry the autos in the big tent.. Wont risk putting all the buds to dry in the small tent when humidity is around 70 in both tents

 

[HerbalEdu]

also you can stock your seeds for next year when the black friday or some other promotion happen most breeder and seeds resseler offer some good deals many time a years.

Plants now, soon 2 weeks after sprout. Seems to go good

 

[HerbalEdu]

vigorous and healthy start for sure, much better than last grow.

 

[trt92]

16 days old, growing good, could see roots coming out the bottom of pots now.
But i notice some weird colours on some leaves, can you tell me what it is?

 

[HerbalEdu]

nothing to worry about, various leaves mutations/discoloration can happen here and there once in while depending phenotypes.

Seems like both autos and phenos got it,, how much light should i use in watt? I got like 150 watt out of 300 now

 

[HerbalEdu]

yeah this could happen indiferently to automatics or photoperiods. Each phenotypes within a strain will be more or less different it depend how stable is the strain.

this is what i m doing with my led.

first week and half led @ 50% 80cm from soil.

i don't move the led upward until the plants top are about 30 to 25 cm to the led then i start moving the led as the plant grow keeping a 35 to 25cm between the led and plant tops.

after the first week and a half i set the led @75%

then when i switch to 12/12 i set the LED to 100% for photoperiods, with automatics that's at the beggining of the 6th weeks after germination.

 

[trt92]

humidity seem to stay high all the time, was 81 now when i checked... hope it will be better in a month when flowering starts.. i got a little dehumiditor but it doesnt seem to help,,,, maybe ait better if i keep it inside the tent?

 

[HerbalEdu]

without a sealed room and a closed or semi/closed ventilation system, it's hard to control humidity.

I'm in the same boat just crossing my fingers with the weather during flowering and hoping the strain resist well to humidity.

I had to get a 3000 sq ft basement dehumid for my 200 sq ft lung room to win the humidity battle in the summer, all winter though 20% so I have the opposite battle lol big plants put off sooooo much humidity in a small space its unreal! That's honestly a sign I know I need to water soon is the humidity starts to go down in the summer time.
