The dark devil does sound like a great strain but it’s a sativa base hybrid so I think it be better to do that in the summer time when I can keep the sativa grow environment easier so most likely that will be next after this auto””3 month grow

go small at first, so one at a time is a good thing, presently.

okay, understand less in terms of yield, but much easier to manage, then as you get the first crop towards maturity, you can start the next. staggered is always a good approach, than all-eggs-into-single-basket.

sooner its up operational, closer to results.

I totally agree but maybe if I get my hands on a nice tall grow tent I could stagger grows and have them lined up, but for now one grow, crop dry cure start new one won’t hurt any just due to size and room it’s my only choice. Any suggestion on which I should try?

Good pick, I’ve had it before out of theory wellness in Massachusetts it was very good and the grow won’t be in a tent it’s a closet but it works specially for an auto the last grow was a photo so...

I’ll be fair I looked green crack up, yeah idk sounds nice but critical is what has caught my eye the most, I got it germinating right now and my DWC sterilizing and etc to get it all ready.

get the first plant up and going.

things will fall into place, as you go along. you will adapt/change/modify/improve your original plans as you get operational. it's a journey, where you know which way you're going, but as to which path and how long, etc, that's what you gotta figure out as you do it.

while it can seem disorganised, i think its better to tackle things as they arise. you can always anticipate, in preparation for things to come, but most important is to get a grow going. once the grow starts, your options and paths will open up to you.

the perpetual grow....huh.

as you start this first grow, you will learn what works for you, what you need, what you need to do, etc. don't worry too much about the bigger picture, what the future holds, concentrate on getting this first grow, this first plant to grow well. expansion is always an option, later.

it's taken me a while to figure out my 'configurations' - if i knew what i know today, i would have approached things a little differently at the very beginning.

having said all that above, sorting out the location/site of the grow, then arranging the grow area is a fundamental step, though getting quality genetics is always a good start. see if you can nail this location/site down, as that is something which you can't change too easily and something which you do want to get mostly right the first-go.

get as large tent as you can, i reckon. i started with a small tent, and i probably should have gone one size larger. still, i don't regret buying the small tent, as it started all my operations.

i'm suggesting to stagger, at this moment with single seeds, more as a backup insurance. also, growing different varieties in the same grow area can present complications to their management with different feeding and growing patterns, etc.

So I can’t decided maybe y’all can help, running 240gph 4 outlet. Do you think 4-1 outlet for disc or 2/2 for disc and long stone?

the 240 I got works good enough for a 5gal DWC don’t need anything that big that’s like commercial grade. Almost thinking of crazy glueing 4 inch long to the bottom and run both again it worked alright with my last grow just the one stone keep turning lol

Update; the process has started photos will explain it all I guess. Oh but I did change my mind and went with two 4” disc I want max bubbles I can get. And the one photo is just a free grow tent that was given too me so I got some random plant in it which I’m gonna feed it’s nutes from res changes, and as you can see was germinating my seed and soaking my clay.
