I have tansfered the plants from the small tent and repotted them in coco that I soaked in a solution of CANNA A&B and Rhiztonic with PH of about 6. I was careful in removing the plastic from around the Grodan rockwool cubes, not to damage the roots.
I set up a 1.2 x 1.2 x 2m (I think) with a 600W analog ballast running a 600W HPS bulb. There is a small fan that the person I inherited the equipment from gave me. there is no ducting it just sucks from inside the tent to out. there is no smell yet so I don't need to set up the carbon filter for a little while. I threw it all togther a bit haphazardly but it is neat and will do the job. between what I have inherited and what I have bought I have spent about $400.00. I only have 4 plants going but hopefully they are all girls!! The clones will be a lifesaver, I think my expectations of my first grow may have been a bit high in terms of scale. If I can get 20 cuttings to root and take them outdoors I will be happy.
