I Believe this is everything im using in my setup. ill have pics posted once everything arrives next thursday. Im also ordering my seeds today so i have a little time before everything is started. I have done a lot of research hoping that i have everything in order and really believe this will turn into a great grow.

That is a lot of stuff for a first grow. You will probably need to add another light for that much area st some point. I look forward to seeing it all setup.

That's an almost 4x4' tent... His 600w will do him just fine, granted more light is always better. That's an AWESOME setup you have there... If no gro experience at all than you got some big balls with all that stuff (a noob here and tried hydro once.. I sucked at it.) wishing you great grow karma!
You should have quite the harvest with 6 think differents... This strain DOES NOT DISAPPOINT!
Welcome to AFN!

Thanks Guys,

Its an area of 9.16 sq

3' 8in x 2' 6in

44in x 30in = 1320in /144 = 9.16sq


I feel that a 600w is plenty of light for this area that's 65.5w per sq since i have a Scrog screen set up i dont feel ill have a light issue.

My concern was that it was to small of an area for 6 plants but i hope that isn't the case, the math looks good and promising.

I've always been very interested in making this happen and I've had a very good understanding of how it works. over the past say two months I've had my face glued to my computer screen ever chance i had crawling forums and website. I'm confident in the system I've decided to go with. Everything i have coming is essential for some part of the grow and hopefully i have all of the basics covered.

I know there are a few more things I'll be needing down the line such as nutrient additives and water thermometer, i have a great hydroponic shop in town so i can make a quick trip.

I've gone over every grow journal i can find on this strain so i can expect what issues might arise , and i know anything can happen and go completely wrong failing miserably. hopefully that Isn't the case. I'll be keeping a daily log of how things progress and posting probably once a week, so I can reference back to see where things worked or didn't and so if i need help you guys can see what might have caused any issues.

Thanks for the input guys. I'll have pics up once its all together and ready

I have high hopes but anything can happen, It sure will be interesting
