    Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed

    Thanks for staying with me through this, I have come to accept that maybe I really need to switch my state of thinking into how I can simply become more efficient, since I cant actually be upping my wattage by much more. So I have come to the conclusion that switching to LED might be the most...

    In the picture, the red boxes are fans; the black arrows are airflow.

    Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed

    I think this should have been mentioned awhile ago: the main grow is a 1-time only thing. I have 6 months to grow these plants and will allow as much time as necessary to cure the buds. After that, I'm done with it and just having a (much nicer) perpetural SoG going which should keep me high...

    SoG Question

    This is a continuation to my other post (Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed). Again, I would love to be able to use more watts, but I can't. I seem to be getting a lot of mixed comments on the idea of putting 30 very small plants under this light. Honestly, I don't understand why it wouldn't work...

    I must not understand the question. The size of the plant shouldn't change how I am watering the plant.

    Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed

    Yes, thank you. That is exactly what I am planning on desigining. And in a SoG, you are not going for width, you're just focusing on the top cola. The top cola doesn't need to be more than 4" wide. Here's a link for the DIY Cooltube.

    Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed

    Remember I am very worried about electricity bills. There is no way I can run a 1000w. I figure I am able to run about 700 watts in the shed. The setup I have now is 654 watts. The 5 ozs every 3 weeks is an estimate based on other SoG grows I've read about. People are getting about 0.5 ounces...

    What's Going On?

    My future mother-plant is and has been growing in this same soil mixture her entire life (~7 weeks). She was FIMed yesterday, and IMO, she seems very healthy. A (**** quality cell phone) picture attached. Higher quality pictures to come.

    That's soil-covered perlite - not rocks.

    What's Going On?

    My original plan was to use Fox Farms soil, but there is no good marijuana-growing soil available to me. The closest store I can find is about 4 hours away. There is no way I'm ordering soil online - shipping on a few hundred pounds of soil is ridiculous (hundreds of dollars)!

    Thanks for the link on the great deal! I'll probably be posting pics over the next week or so of the good Mother and the grow space so people can maybe get a better idea of whats happening, if they can't figure out what I am trying to say.

    Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed

    My roommate and I have decided that we can only use around 700 watts (to avoid a huge raise in the electricity bill). Remember there are only 6 plants growing here - the entire 5' x 6' space is not being used. Do you still think a 400w HPS is too little?

    Re-designed Outdoor Grow Shed

    I think I have decided what I'm going to be doing in the grow-shed in my back yard. The shed is 5' tall, 6' wide and 7 feet long. I am going to have a mother room, a SoG room and a main-grow room. In the mother room, I will have 4 26w blue spectrum CFLs. The mother, which I've named Mother...

    Soil mixture: ~1/3 cheap topsoil ~1/3 horse manure ~1/3 perlite

    What's Going On?

    This is one of 6 bagseed plants I'm growing. The rest are fine, but this one seems to not be growing on one side. Has anyone else ever seen something like this?

    SoG Question

    How many plants could efficiently be grown under a 150w HPS in a sea of green style grow in a 2x2 grow box? I'm planning on an 8-week cycle with no veg. at all.

    I am not able to use that many watts. I am very worried about my electricity bill, and am trying to keep it as low as possible.

    Outdoor Grow-Shed

    I am in the process of remodeling my outdoor shed into a grow room. The shed is 7 feet deep, 5 feet tall and 6 feet wide (42sq feet). My goal is both quality and yield, but am only able to run somewhere around 600-650 watts of HID lighting. I already have a 150w HPS light from a past grow, which...
