In Bloom
i hear this is the place to be. came to check it out and i like the energy so i figured i'd make a profile and journal over here. some may recognize my name/avatar from other forums.
Some background on the grow: Currently I'm running a perpetual in a spare bedroom, with a 4'x4' tent for flower (DIY LED) and a 4'x2' for veg (200w 4' x 4 tube 6400k T5HO). I will post updates (mostly pictures) every few days with my thoughts on how things are going. I've been growing for a few years now but consider myself still a novice so feel free to post in my journal any advice or anything you want really.
I prefer to use Pro-Mix HP-M (or Sunshine Mix #4+Mycorrhiza which is what I am currently using) DTW with H&G Aqua Flakes nutrients. I skip most of the line, only using A + B and Bud-XL. I start cuts in rock-wool 1.5", transplant to 1 gallon nursery pots, and then 3 gallon fabric pots. Right now I'm only running Original Glue (GG4), GG Strains verified cut. But will hopefully be receiving some Purple Cake fem seeds soon and start doing a bit more of what this forum is named after!
The main lamp is 6 HLG QB96 on an HLG-600h-54b which usually stays dimmed to about 500w at the wall. That lamp is supplemented with two Arcadia 12% UVB 39w T5HO reptile bulbs, ran 4 hours mid day starting when flowers have formed.
