First I would like to start by thanking the community for providing a wealth of information and helping me get through my first indoor grow "successfully." My first indoor grow was completed in a 3x3 Hydrofarm Indoor Grow Tent with a 315w CMH and provided a net weight of 173 grams or roughly 6oz of lovely Black Mamba from 4 plants.
I will begin logging my grows from now on in order to learn more and get better at specific techniques. I also feel like it is a good way to give back to the community that gave information to me so freely.
For this grow, I will be using an 8x4 Indoor Grow Tent from Opulent Systems. Purchased on Amazon for roughly 200$. Hopefully it is not too flimsy or have any other hallmarks of cheap manufacturing like zipper malfunctions.
Lighting, I will be using the 315w CMH for half of the tent (4) plants and a SF4000, 420W LED for the other half (6) plants. For a total of 10 plants.
Exhaust/Air Flow/ Temperature Control, I have one of the AC Infinity 6'' Fans with the adjustable speed controller, I will purchase and add several oscillating fans for inside the tent, and then I have a 12-15k BTU Toshiba Portable AC with several setting modes (used this for my previous grow with much success).
I will be using FFOF Soil, with FF nutrients. I plan to keep my nutrients very simple. CaMg and then either the Grow or the Bloom. That is all for now unless the ladies demand something more as we get going.
I live in Arizona, which has horrific water quality so I will be using RO water. I will have to start the grow with 5-gal drums of RO filled up every couple days at my local water station (my apartment complex has one I believe) with the plan to add an RO system under the sink in the spare bathroom.
For strains, I will be doing Gorilla Glue and Bruce Banner #3, I stuck with buying Feminized Photo-Periods for now. Not ready to see balls yet.
I do NOT plan on adding CO2 currently. One good thing about Arizona is the dry climate which keeps humidity inside my house at between 10-15% usually. Last grow I added a small humidifier during Veg, and did NOT need a Dehumidifier at all during Flowering. The plan this time is to shop around a bit and try to find a decent sized Humidifier/Dehumidifier combo just in case I do end up needing a dehumidifier this time given the increased number of plants. If not I will definitely grab a larger sized humidifier to help during Veg.
I hope the experts out there read this and feel like I have a solid game-plan for this 2nd Grow. If you see any issues or reasons for alarm, please speak up.
Pictures of the setup will be coming soon. It is my goal to have everything ready to go by the end of next weekend. I just finished unpacking the moving truck today and getting the weed tent setup and rolling isnt quite the #1 priority for wifey. I will also be starting a YouTube channel as well as be doing some videos including an Unboxing/ Grow Tent Setup video for the 8x4 Opulent Systems Grow Tent. Other Videos will likely be just weekly updates and videos on different techniques. My channel will be the same name as I use here on THC Farmer.
