Ultimate Marijuana Grow-OP setup

[mike82]

Please comment!

 

Also, I still need some info on how to raise the plant properly (like trimming or I hear a lot about spliting the plant or something... unsure... I don't want to inform anyone I know about this setup who knows how to grow)

 

I have a passion for growing plants, and want to learn EVERYTHING...

 

 

 

Room consists of: (equip)

 

-Hybrid Hydro/Aeroponic growth system (NAHydroponics.com)

 

-Flourescent bulb (seeds), Air-cooled light reflector w/ solarMAX MH (veg) + HPS (bloom) on a light rail - Watts depends on size of Grow-OP. (Lighting can be purchased w/ NAHyro. system AT COST)

 

... Reflector: I definately know the best one can be found at tradewindsgarden.com, but not sure if the same one can be purchased through Sunlightsupply.com (NAHydro light supplier)

 

-Soni-Grow (sound technology) (google it)

-controlled CO2 dispursal unit (google! or ... greenair.com)

-Oceanic Mister/Hydration (oceanmistmaker.com)

-OreckXL Air Purifier (oreck.com)

-standard dehumidifier, for bloom stage

-MarvinTM Fan (this specific Fan!) (theshoppingchannel.com)

-Iguana Nutrients, veg and bloom (advancednutrients.com)

 

-Walls and Ceiling painted w/ Therma Guard (NASA uses this) (google thermaguard)

 

-Walls lined w/ Reflector foil.

 

-I was considering implimenting a Water chiller... Don't know if I NEED to though...

Couple sites I was looking at for this is frigidunits.com and nationalgardenwholesale.com

 

 

 

 

GROWTH of these fine plants.

 

Summary... I took notes from Marijuana Man on Pot-TV, but I derive my own mechanically understood conclusions as to how things would grow in a rainforest environment (AND, one must also take into consideration that the Bloom stage of Marijuana is UN-like any other plant in that the DRY and Hot environment is what produces MORE THC on top of other stacking factors, but this is why you can not bloom as you veg - hot/humid)

 

 

Seedlings:

 

(germinate between 2 plates - between 2 moist paper towels)

 

As seeds sprout;

Flourescent Light 8H/16H (On/Off)

Lower Temp (basement temp)

 

good Nitrogen supply (I have no known method as to how I would keep track of the nitrogen supply... I am hoping its just a given and that this wont be a problem)

 

 

Vegetation:

 

Temp. 75F (early), allow temp to raise into 80's as plant enlargens (84F max?)

Light 18H/6H (MH bulb) - 25Watts/SQ.FT

Nitrogen rich Nutrients (or Iguana Veg)

70% Humid (oceanic Mister)

 

1Day, straight water/week

 

pH 6.5 or slightly less.

 

Marvin Fans (new tech. fan, inexpensive, not really intended for pot growth use - circulated air helps stem/branches grow stronger (if placed directly on plant), as well as clears stale air off of leaf tops

 

OreckXL Air Purifier - simply the best air purifier I have found, impliments US Navy Submarine Air Filtration technology - changes air, circulates, optimizes air quality, and gets rid of smell

 

Sound technology, soni-grow (increase absorbtion of mist and CO2)

 

CO2:

-utilized at higher temps, during use, try to control temp a bit (temp. 80F+)

-absorbed from bottom of leaf

-use only in Light hours, and NOT right when you turn on lights, allow plant to 'WAKE UP'

-Humidity during use, 70%

 

MEASUREMENT of CO2 usage:

ie. W 6' x L 15' x H 8' = 720 CU. FT

 

PPM... 1000 - .0007, 1100 - .0008 ... 1500 - .0012

 

For 1500 PPM, 720 x .0012 = .86 CU.FT of CO2

 

....On top of this, small plants will absorb this in 3H, where as large plants will absorb this in say 1H.

 

-Also a good idea to split this into 15 minute bursts.

 

 

Flowering/Budding/Blooming:

 

Flush/Clean system (Hydrogen Peroxide diluted)

 

Pick off 'tiny' Whitish/Yellowish flowers as you go (if plant is Female)

 

Light 12/12 (on/off), exchange MH with HPS

Temp 78-84F (as you further budding stage increase)

Phosphorus rich nutrients or Bloom nutrients (Iguana bloom)

35-50% humidity ('decrease' as you go along in Bloom stage)

 

Other conditions the same as Veg stage (above)

 

 

Drying/Curing:

 

Clip large leaves

Clip Stem

Hang Upside Down in a dark, dry area (humidity at 50%).

Circulate air (Marvin Fan), not directly on plants.

*Clip all leaves (instantly? or shortly after, ie. 1 day drying time?)

 

Store 4-5 days or until you can keep a joint lit from a bud you clip!

 

Get THICK paper bags (thicker = better)

Cool, Dark, Dry area.

 

Store again, opening once daily (gases escape) for 4-5 days

 

Seal in Moisture lock bag OR Glad Press and Seal (new technology for freezer wrap

only comment I have is it sounds like a very expensive setup for someone who is new to growing.

 

good luck with it mate

i like it, jump right in with out testing the water and start swimming.

looks like you've done your reseach though, best of luck with the grow.

get a few pic's up of the room, before you start the grow diary?

 

[stonedstump]

Sounds very expensive mate, as others have said.

 

I wouldn't put your name to your website on here either if you are doing a grow diary. You can easily be traced if someone knows your website.

 

I just have one comment to make. I would be buying stronger nutrients than just iguano from advanced nutrients.

 

Flairform Greendream is cheaper and alot stronger, it's what I've ordered for my first grow.

 

I will be following your dairy with interest, good luck:)

Heya Like

 

sounds impressive .. be looking forward to seeing your action pix as you get going ... best of luck, sounds like you've got it all thought through .. .I don't find my understanding of rH during budding matches yours .. but I'm a newbie and the reading/research I've done suggests around 70% is IDEAL for the canna plant ... but then again, I've read and seen the peeps on this site get amazing results using many and varied systems, so once again, grow hard and tease us up wuith some pix of your setup

[WantDaChronic]

sounds like a really over the top system imo, like it will provide a great environment for the plants and all, but you could probably not buy half of that shit and get results that are only slightly less than what you would have got spending all that money

[loylty gets u nothing]

u doin fotos of it

please??

whens the plants goin in??wat strain u goin wit

peace

billo

Shit she does sound expensive.

 

Good luck with it all mate

 

Post some pics before growing so we all can see what your setups like

 

Cheers
