Greetings my agrarian rebels,
I'm putting together a small grow room, and am trying to get a handle on what I'm going to be able to produce with the resources I have available...
My flowering room will be about 6' by 6', and I have a pretty nice hood set up I built years ago with a 250w hps and a 250 watt mh which measures about 18" x 3'. It worked really well back in the day. I'm planning to do a fluorescent veg / prop. area under my 3' by 5' "legit plant" table in an ajoining room.
I've got some big bud seed stock, which I hoped to get going in my veg. garden, but have not been able to germinate. I've got 7 beans left, and am debating whether to use them, or use my outdoor stock for cuttings. I've got some small starts happening that were just some seeds taken from a sack I enjoyed a few months ago. They seem to be some nice squat plants ( 5 frond leaves) that should do well indoors. They're doing their thing with the 'maters and should be good to take cuttings when my room is ready to go in about a month. Should I go with them, or give the big bud a try?
My other questions are...
How many plants should I expect to efficiently grow under my 250 / 250 hood?
Should I get some new bulbs? They seem fine, but have not been used regularly in years.
I'm planning to use soil for starters, and build an aeroponic system a little later. Should I go with 5 gallon or three gallon containers.
What about supplementing my hps/ mh set up with some fluro units attached horizontally directly to the wall?
What kind of harvest should I expect? An ounce? a QP? a bale?
What about soil nutrients? I use a vitamin product along with miracle grow called superthrive for my legit gardening and love it. Any ideas for the hemp?
I'm hoping to get my first harvest in by the end of November. That seem pretty reasonable.
I'm still in the build out phase for my room, so I'm trying to do it right the first time, and not have to reconfigure or radicly change my space once I'm up and running.
I'll look forward to reading your expert ideas.
Thanks,
GOKO
