Hey what is up guys?! First time poster and grower actually, long time smoker haha. I've always wanted to grow, and a couple months ago decided to go ahead and pull the trigger and start ordering shit after doing some researching and reading and listening to podcasts (not enough). Now I want to preface this post by stating I know my set up and grow plan is a little much for a first grow. And I get it. But I really wanted to do this right the first time and I have some time to dive in and learn and care for them right now, so this is my set up. Made the rookie mistake of buying a kit from vivosun first and replaced the fan and one of the lights before I even started.
8x8 Tent - 18 Plants - 5 different strains.
3x vs4000 400w
1x se5000 480w
Ac infinity controller 69 pro w/8" inline fan and oscillating fans.
Aircube ebb and flow watering sytsem w/ 100g tank.
20g co2 tank with rain system and controller.
Strains: 3 Queens Banner - 3 Tropical Wiz V2 - 4 Pinot Noir - 3 Double Grape - 3 Forgotten Strawberries - Then I have 2 that I lost the labels to when they were germinating. Those 2 are either sour stomper, creme de la chem or mango smile.
Media: Seedlings started in Dakine 420 OG coco blend. Transferred to floraflex coco with a little bit of perlite. Used dynomyco at each transplant.
Nutes: Floraflex full tilt schedule - power si. Dynomyco.
The oldest ones sprouted Feb 28. The other 2-10 days after. (Huge mistake)
I started them in solo cups. Then transferred to 1 gallons after a week. Then 5 gallons after another week. Then I topped a couple of them a few days later, tied some down also. and only have been doing some leaf tucking on some since. Just wanted to experiment and see what would happen. Im done with that shit though. Everytime I touch these plants I break something. So Im just going to let them go from here on out. Currently on day 23 from sprout. I stunted a few and a few seem like they are flourishing.
Here a few pics from solo cups to today...I'm posting this diary with hopes that you guys can help me when issues arise bc I have no experience. Im just going by the research I've done and asking the guy at the hydrostore questions when things arise. I've tried to post on other forums but haven't got much traction. I found you guys by reading one of GMOs grow diaries (chimera 3 holy shit).
Thanks for reading if you made it this far. Hopefully someone will see this and follow me and help me lol.
Blaze on!
