Whats up folks,
As some may know, this is my first grow that I have EVER done. in fact i really dont smoke that much....just reverted to this because 1.) i love special projects 2.)F*** drug dealers.....tired of the process of aquiring etc.
Anyway, its my first grow:I started with seeds from Dr. Chronic(Bubblicious). My grow started as 5 seeds growing in 2 waterfarms(crazy, i now realize, but it is my first grow)anyway...long story short, the room im growing in seems to only be large enough for one good size plant; so im down to that, but DAD-GUM PROUD!
THE ROOM:2'x4'x8'..useable is smaller because the air return is built into this room(vent on the other side of the wall of course, but it works well for ventilation).
THE LIGHT:400W HPS purchased for like $110 from insidesun.com, currently 18/6
THE SYSTEM:Gen. Hydro waterfarm bought off ebay. GH 3 part flora nutes used at recommended strength.
THE VENTILATION:6" vortex with home made charcoal scrubber controlled by a thermostatic controller kept at around 76-78 degrees. My intake is through the reverse side of the A/C/Heat return...so it sucks in filtered air. It exhausts through a duct that goes to my upstairs bedroom.
THE ODOR:despite my feeble charcoal scrubber attempt, i found some cheap gel odor things at home depot for like $4 each, one in the grow room, one in my upstairs room....not a hint since then.
THE EXPERIENCE:Typical newbie.....early nute burn from over-zealous growing, stunned growing from PH too high, unusual inexplicable holes in leaves that appear so randomly i just write it off to "1st grow flaws",
OVERALL:the subject of my post says it all, my plant is currently almost 7 weeks of veg and im waiting a while longer to put it into flower because i want my yield to be pretty big. currently almost 14" tall, the pics say the rest
Take a look: feedback/suggestions welcomed
