some details
in looking back over the thread i realised how light on details it was so let me fill in.
i started this grow back in mid February with bagseed, 20 in all. i germinated them in pre-soaked rockwool starter cubes inside a dome and they all popped but 2, not bad at all. then, i started 10 more from the bag i had just finished, being better than average middies, of those 10, 9 popped.
so, the first and second set of pics are from mid March when i began work on prototype #2. by the first of April i was ready to begin work on prototype #3 (i think this is it).
i'm using Technaflora's BC Boost, Grow and Bloom with ThriveAlive B1 red and green as my basic nutrient mix and i follow the directions to the letter except a little on the light side.
my plan, my hope, my dream is to have a perpetual Sea Of Green in my closet. not as a commercial enterprise but just to feed my head. ultimately, once i iron out the kinks, i want to have 3 mommas from 3 different premium strains that i can take 4 cuttings from, every third week.
i don't plan on any vegging at all other than the 3 - 4 weeks it will take to get a solid root mass established, then directly to flower.
i'm using DWC throughout, with identical bins in the flower op and for the mommas, i even built a bubble cloner that is identical except half as tall. in the flower room each 5 gallon bin has 8 stations for a total of 32 stations, made to fit diy pots made from 9 oz cups, 2 colors, 2 strains. i plan on putting 4 clones a week until i get to that beautiful day when i have to take 4 out to put 4 in. also, if i can manage even 6 grams per i will be as happy as a clam cuz i don't smoke 24 grams a week now and all i get now is middies.
anyway, here's some pics of the expanding canopy from the first week of April
btw, i'm an attention junkie so all comments are appreciated
