I'm starting a 12/12 from seed grow. I chose this for simplicity and to get to know growing at an active pace.
I have aquired the following:
1 GAL Grow Bags x 6
Fox Farms Ocean Forest Soil
Rockwool Starter Cubes
FloraNova Grow + Bloom
250W Switchable HPS
250W HPS Bulb
4" Inline Fan w/ Speed Control
Carbon Filter
Black/White Mylar
The chosen closet has 90" vertical room, 35" Wide, 19" Deep. I will be building a base using 2x4's, which will be sealed using the black side up of the mylar. So far the build process has not happened but should be good to go this weekend.
The walls will be coated with white mylar. All gaps will be sealed. The light will be hung from the ceiling. It will have to sit 12" from the top to hold in the vent/filter, which will be vented into the attic.
Cool air can be drawn in from two ways, and until I figure out how I want to vent, I cant comment on intake yet.
So far, I am working with good local grown seeds. I'm not sure how well they will do, but I hve germed 6, which are sitting in rockwool starter cubes. They have been soaked for 24 hours prior in 5.8 PH water. Nothing has popped up yet, but I have high hopes.
The cool thing about 12/12 from seed is that the plants will not flower until they are ready. If i find a male, i kill it and start another seed. Hopefully at some point I will have a mother room and I will be building this into a future design. Cant wait to put it together.
