Hello All,
While I've never posted, however, I've been reading your journals. After receiving my medical card, I decided it was time to pursue the hobby. So, here is the set ups I have purchased so far.
Recently, I purchased the Bubbleponics system with the the Multispectrum Lights; one 30K Spiral, one 41K Spiral and one 50K Tube style bulb (15,000 Lumens). [pictures 1 and 2] This comes with an 8 gallon res.
Additionally, I purchased a Grow Cabinet (17 1/2"x25 1/2"x35 1/2") from Craigslist that has a T5 Florescent strip in it. This comes with a 5 gallon res. [picutres 3 & 4]
I also built a Grow Room (3ft.x4ft.x5ft.) under my stairs. The room was constructed with a 3/4" PVC frame and wrapped in panda plastic. I bought two bathroom fans (50 cfm), one to push air into the room and one to push air out. Additionally, the room has a fan to mix the air up inside the room. [picture 5,6,7,8]
Initially, I was going to use the room under the stairs as a veg room and build another flowering room. However, after finding the cabinet for a low price on CL, I altered my intent. My new intentions are to use the cabinet as a veg room with the built in hydro system and the under the stairs room as the flowering room with the bubbleponics system.
My primary concern is the amount of space available for flowering in the bubbleponics system. Others have noted that it becomes too crowded to grow 6 plants in this system. So, what are my solutions to the over crowding? Should I remove the plants from the hydro and put them into large soil pots?
Also, do you think my setup looks okay? Any suggestions? Any recommendations for a cloning station?
Thank you for any input and I look forward to posting a journal after I hear all of your input.
My apologies for the quality, these pics were taking from my phone.
