Indoor First grow with Airpots and LED lighting - 2x Think Different, 2x StarRyder, 2x AutoXtreme

[Lemmywinks]

Hello fellow growers!

This is my first grow with this setup and in my new grow room, and my first here at Autoflower.net
Since english isn't my native tongue there might be some mistakes here and there.

I'll be using the following:
6 x 10L Airpots
1 x HighLite LED 006 (Dutch Passion)
BioBizz Fish-Mix
BioBizz Bloom
Soil that I mixed myself (with the help of a friend)

I ordered the Color Mix 7 autofem from the always awesome Duth Passion which means that the following lovely ladies will (hopefully) join us:
2 x Think Different
2 x StarRyder
2 x AutoXtreme

I soaked them 24/6 on a folded wet towel between two plates.
They all germinated 2 days after and went straight into the pots and now 4 of them have graced us with their presence.

AutoXtreme:


StarRyder:


(Sorry for the crappy pictures. My camera crapped out and I'm using my iPhone)

Unfortunately the Think Different ladies haven't showed them selves yet, I guess they are modest =)

I will give you guys an update as soon as the Think Differents have popped, or something exiting happens!

I have a nl×bb growing in a 5gallon airpot and i dont care for them at all shes growing very well but im very meticulous about my grow room being spotless and airpots for me are very very messy. That being said im sure there amazing for growing lovely plants. But check out heavy 16 fire its an amazing product.

Cool set-up...

With monster potential yield...(which I'm sure played a part in your selections)

You will like the airpots....they aren't messy (Sorry, hiking high) if you set them up right...with a concave depression that has a little more soil built up on the edges and lower in the middle. I had one instance where they leaked and made a bit of mess and that was in week one. After the soil compressed from watering, it never leaked again. They do dry out faster, but I see that as a positive as it promotes root health and the wet to dry cycle promotes growth.

2 things...

You're going to want a Cal/Mag supplement - LED's make for a stronger imperative in that department
You may be under lit with only the one 006 for 6 monsters. All 3 of those strains are known to get VERY big.

Just my 2 cents.

Cheers and Welcome!

Thanks!

I have thought about the cal/mag supplement and I'll probably get some in a short while.
And I got good trays under my pots and they are packed well, so far they haven't been any trouble.

And you are right that i'm under lit. I'm waiting for the new line from GrowNorthern (The one I've got basically their MS 0006 model). So come July I'll order their new model and get some more light in there.

Unless I remembering incorrectly, that got pushed back to August....TaNg will know for sure or there may be a thread in the GN sub-forum...

Yeah...

Here is the on-going thread RE the new GN units

Thanks for the thread. Really excited for the new model to arrive :smoke:

One of the Think Different ladies just came to the party!:


Now we are just waiting on the last one, who is fashionably late...

This is my first with BioBizz, Thought i'd give it a go at least.

Have you tried BioBizz fish-mix and bloom first hand?
