WARNING: I would take a dab or a hit or two off a pipe before reading my post; It is Lengthy loool.
Apartment living, gotta love it. Fitting a 4x4 tent, a 2x4 tent, and all your grow equipment in your 1x1 grow room. LOL, not really 1x1, but you get my point, i started to put the second tent up yesterday, like you said BassCaptain, i started to notice,if you look at the pic above, where the fuck am i supposed to put it. So now 24 hours later... after a whole damn grow room rearrangement, after STRESS OF ALMOST breaking my damn good plant because im moving to quick, the tent is up.
i literally bent her right the fuck over, i dont even know if shell be okay, but its a couple hours later and she seems fine. I felt her rip a little though i think, like the roots. Scary.
Anyways babble aside, After removing the shelves in the closet, rearranging the whole closet and getting things all adjusted electricity wise, getting all the cords and extension cords sorted here.
Here we are, At 7:15 this morning, my first 2 plants will enter their first 12/12 cycle. Its currently 4:20am(BLAZE UP GUYS). I still have a couple adjustments i have to make to get the temps rolling fine in each tent, its going to be hard to get each tent to coincide with each other. I have one air conditioner, one heater, both tents in one room, i would think i would be able to keep each tent the same temperature, but at the same time i do have two different lights in each tent. So lets see the new setup and ill explain what changes i made in the 2x4 to make the 4x4 work. I am splitting equipment i have used before, i got an old humidifer that still works ill be using etc.
Heres where we are at now. Its TIGHT, its definitely not a room for people with claustrophobia. but its apartment living man. Its cheap, and it works for me. As you can see everything was removed from the closet and then i actually just consolidated it all in the back of the closet, i had a couple feet of room left in the closet. The closet measures 8x2 and i have a 2x4 tent in there, leaving me space to store my soil and shit, which is nice.
SO LIGHT CHANGES!
I had to make a couple, well, maybe not but i did. I have a backup KINGLED 1000W LED, i put that in now 2x4 VEG TENT. I moved the MEIZHI 900w to the new 4x4 FLOWER tent. I do have in the closet, a meizhi 450w, and two shitty off brand 600w lights, horrible lights. So if i need to supplement a tent i can.
@basscaptain I do plan to pickup that quantum board u suggested when the funds come in. I saw the kingbrite 240w. That would be nice. I am Blowing BREAKERS in my apartment running more than 2 lights, i have both running just fine now but if i add a third ill have to run an extension cord from the living room. LMAO. So, if anyone has ideas or even light suggestions to reduce the power being used, im all game.
I also made a change to the 2x4, im currently using a stupid plastic 205cfm
vivosun exhaust fan. hopefully ill grab another
ac infinity soon for the veg tent. I am using my
ac infinity and my new carbon filter in the 4x4 flower tent.
there you go, its hard sometimes to tell from photos. i forgot, were these auto-flowers or feminised?
in any case, the stretched growth looks strong, thick and healthy - maybe i need my eyes checked. i'm telling ya, you're doing good, its healthy grow responding to nutrients, lights and general growing conditions.
i assumed you flipped them, as we have been encouraging you to do so. and i say here, FLIP 'EM, they're big enough to give ya a decent harvest, no? 8 to 9 weeks after changing to 12/12 cycle at least....
are they 5-gallon pots? just trying to get the photo in perspective...
you can always manipulate those 2 taller stems...shape the plant to suit.
Youre completely good dude! So i got 1 AUTOFLOWER Northern Lights, thats the one in the veg tent thats in flower.
Thats BACK Center, yes, its rough, it needs food, it needs..... a doctor.. and im not that doctor, ill be happy with whatever i get off it. Anyways the rest are Feminized photoperiods, and theyre all seeds ordered off what i think are reliable seedbanks, but i dont know strain because i opened a bunch of packs and got them all mixed. LMAO.
My two Big girls that are about to flower in in 2 GALLON Pots. Back left, back right.
Then the two younger veg plants in the front, well, theyre also issue plants. They are all in 1 gallon pots.
Seedlings, in the nursery pots.
I have that random seedling started right in that 1 gallon pot dead center in the photo. Trying a couple different things. Everything is now in
roots organics except the one gallon pots.
Seedlings from 00 Genetics i think that was the company, once again, a bunch of different strains,i need to start writing this shit down, but im so disorganized with all this stuff right now.
Here goes the first attempt at a second harvest. 7:15 am this morning the two big girls will enter darkness and start their 12/12 cycle. Once i get these girls out of the veg tent, i can start focusing on my other issue plants, i have WAY TO MUCH going on right now, and i know that, but its okay, im not so bummed about the losses now that i have something entering flower and im pretty confident with this watering method.
hopefully this all makes sense for you guys.
Taking a smoke break, its been a bit of work tonight.
