Yes yes Butty Boyo's/Birdies!!!
Well after weeks of research, ramblings and patiently buying equipment etc for my first ever groom I thought is was time to start a diary, hopefully it's not too early off the cuff being as I haven't even completely finished installing the groom yet!?
Pretty new around here hence this being my first grow but the welcome and help has been amazing, can't fault any one of you, top crew on the talk
Right then, back to real talk, I'm going to be growing in soil, with the kindly offered help of my new mentor ERBURT, so big thanks to Erb's for offering
I'm going to try to note everything said and done in here for future reference, and even if it means repeating myself from the chat window as then it has a place to stay permanently, anyone popping in is more than welcome, and anyone having their 10p worth too!
Weapons of choice:
Tent: The Green Room GR120
1.2 x 1.2 x 2.0
Rhino Pro 6" x 600mm
Rhino Sono ducting
6" L1 RVK extraction, this is going to have to be pulling the air due to going in silent box above groom in attic, hoping to get this extracted outside soon through its own chimney up there too, but it's just going out into the attic for now
4" A1 RVK intake, possibly also going in a silent box!?
Black Orchid cool hood
Lumii digi dimmable ballast (250/400/600/600+)
400w MH from seed through veg
600w dual spec sunmaster for flower
2x Temp/RH meters
6" clip on fan
9" fan
Electric fan heater
Ecotechnics controller, hooking up intake, extraction and heater fans to this and hopefully get conditions dialled in quickly and lasting, thanks to Smiffy for sorting me out with this and a kind gift of some seeds in the package too!
Soil potting up with dolomite lime at 1tblspn per 5ltr and 1:4 perlite
Pots I have are normal type 0.5ltr,
then 1ltr and 15ltr airpots
I still need to get my run off catch stuff and some 500ml bottles for doing the seeds straight in soil mini propagators effort, hoping to sort this and final silent box built and all set up this week
Nutes:
Canna Rhizotonic 5ltr
Old timers grow 5ltr
Old timers bloom 5ltr
Old timers calmag+ 1ltr
Old timers bio silicon 1ltr
Seed stash:
Big Buddha Blue Cheese x5
The Widow x5
Barneys Farm Blue Cheese x2
Paradise Seeds Nebula x2
Going with Big Buddha Blue Cheese for this first effort
First stop is completing set up purchases, building fan boxes and then mixing the soil up
Then hopefully if conditions look ok after a day or 2 it's pre water soil time going with 4ml or Rhizo per 1ltr water and in the seeds go under their mini lucozade propagators with lids on initially, light spraying daily keeping insides of bottles moist keeping humidity up until Erb's says pop the lids off a bit!
I'll get some pics up soon and stop rambling on now, thanks for looking in, it's definitely squeaky bum time now, but also MON THE FIRST GROW!
Hop's.
