Howdy y'all, thanks for stopping by. Long time lurker, first time exposing myself . Pics at the end for all you perverts
Quick hits about myself: I love gardening, drinking, cooking and getting stoned.
First of all I've learned a TON from a bunch of people on here, including some who haven't posted in many years. Great resources here at the farm, so thank you! Special thanks to @Aqua Man for dropping knowledge consistently.
I'm strictly a hobbyist. This is my 3rd grow, I did one indoors 2 years ago, and 1 outdoors last year. Mostly successful, but always looking to improve (and learn). I'm running high frequency fertigation DTW coco and my setup is fully automated (back injury made watering, shop vac drainage, etc. unbearable, plus now having a son I can't spend as much time on the menial parts of my hobby). My first run indoors was hand-watered soil, so this is my first coco grow.
Setup/Gear
CANNA Coco
1 gallon Honor FLOW bags
5x5 gorilla grow tent with 1 ft extension
2 Scynce Dragon Alpha 2 LED Lights - 650w each (bought like 2 months before the new gen raging kush came out). I do realize this is overkill.
AgrowTek Automation and Sensors - GCX computer, climate sensor, auto dosers (nutes/pH), EC/pH/temp/ORP sensor for res, water level sensor for res which controls valve to fill when needed and stop when full. Also controls humidifier, dehumidifier, feeding schedule and pump, mix pump, heater/AC (not currently in use), CO2 (not currently in use) and pretty much anything you can think of, lawd hae murcy. I'll probably purchase some of their soil moisture sensors to further automate feeding times. I like to spend money once, and figured if/when things are federally legalized I can use all this in a greenhouse. I'm a half drunk idiot with no association with AgroTek by the way.
Little Giant Condensate Pump (450 GPH) to handle drainage - pumps to my sewer for now, but eventually I might collect it outside to water outdoor plants
AC Infinity S6 Exhaust Fan
Ideal Air Humidifier (75-pint)
Toshiba Dehumidifier - outside the tent, keeping room 35-40%
SEAFLO 33 Water Pump - to feed the girls
EcoPlus Pumps to mix res and pump solution past sensors/injectors
GrowOnix reverse osmosis system (minus the pre-filters since I have filters for my house)
Nutes etc.
Dyna-Gro ProTekt (using as a buffer, plus pH up), Foliage Pro, Bloom, Mag-Pro
Mr Fulvic (added at random currently, I just dump in an appropriate dose like once a week depending on how fast my res turns over)
GH Defguard (added at same time as Mr Fulvic)
Koolbloom (dry)
Flawless Finish
pH Down
Girls (clones, not sure if I'm allowed to post the source)
1 Blue Dream
1 Tangie
1 AJ Sour D
1 '91 Chem
1 Grape Pie
1 Gorilla Butter (White Truffle cut)
I do want to mention, I'm feeling pretty fucking lucky.... it turns out the ambient CO2 level in my room stays between 900-1300 ppm. I may get a tank at some point just to keep it around 1200 whenever it's needed, but no rush here. I want to get things dialed in first.
Enough bullshit, here are pics of the setup. Finally got the wife's blessing, so this is starting out as a photo dump.
