So it’s a eBay 2x2 tent I think it’s 5 ft tall (60x60x150cm)
I don’t really have anywhere to grow so I put it on its side and under the bed.
Light: currently got a meanwell ELG 240 700 running some EB strips from bridgelux I chose the basic 3500k spectrum but added in about 25% 5000k to help with stretch and just keep the girls bushy with only 2ft Hight
Fan: AC infinity T6 with a can filter on it got some of fans and actually a proper clip fan but it’s too loud
Medium: basically it’s %20 organic soil, 15% perlite and%65 Coco I like using organic soil in Coco for pH buffering and bacteria and feeding the seedlings till they get their first feeding
Nutrients: running maxigrow and maxibloom , will install the blumat system in the morn.
The plan:
I’m trying not to commit to anything but at the moment and just see how it plays out
Currently growing 4 blue dream and 2 french macarons
Under a screen, hope to yield an Oz a week in perpetual mode
I started with 12 plants in 1 gallon fabrics thinking sog
But realised that was way too many so down to 6 and scrog
May not veg and just do 12/12 from seed in the future but I’m not sure if it’s better to grow 1 plant sideways so just experimental stuff on this first run, they are all in dif pots slightly different amounts of perlite
Well thanks for following and tips advice comments or banter welcome here
Haha glad I’m not the only one with a small grow under there bed , I got about 4.5 feet of height but it’s just for starts then off to a more comfy spot they go.
Yes the area I converted under my bed has 4.5 feet of height, 4 to the light. I use it for germination of seed projects before moving them into a full size room. That’s awesome you manage to flower in such confined space , gota work with what you got ,still better then paying street prices.
So just finishing week 5 now of a planned 9 week flower
Had a bit of sludge in the rez that seems to have clogged the middle 2 drippers.
Mucked around with it a bit and once the snot passed it was fine again. My fault for not opening the tent this week.
Bit dry but I’m sure they will recover
Now that is an effective use of space there, very nice! What’s an average yield for this setup?
@legalcanada that’s a good idea. I’m not sure how big the market will be, but cool nonetheless. I’d love plants with modular trellises or screens like that.
I thought it was pretty gimmicky until they showed the plant beasting out a few days later. That could be very useful for people in the right spaces.
