Ghetto Pricing Investment
Light: 160, bulb included
Fan: 75$
AC: 240$
Pump: 90$
Nutes 50$
Unbelievable Weed: Priceless
Total Investment around 600, but you can subtract the AC, because I would have to get that anyway.
I have the pump in a bottom Rez tub, and a shallow root chamber tub above, pump runs 20 min each hour spewing nutes into the top tub, my electric cost on the 400w, pump, and AC are about 35/month Estimated. The double chamber aleviates the worries of root rot sitting in the rez, and The AC maintains a max temp of 77F to keep the temps below 80F which is when root rot will occur.
I use 6ml of each nute per half gallon of tap water. I just set up the veg closet today, and this will allow me to shorten my harvest cycle by a few weeks.
I recouped my investment on the first grow, so Im costing my weed out at about 45$ per ounce maximum, if I only get 40 grams a cycle. Stay tuned for some awesome bud porn in the coming weeks.
Harvest date for the tub is early to mid February.

I have to give major Facebook Likes to "Advanced Nutrients" for their line of "Perfect PH" products. I have never had a PH problem since I started to use them after I lost my 200$ EC/PH meter to a Storage Unit Seizure. The directions call for 4 ml of each of the 3 part set, but I have always used about 3ml .Due to the fact that the plants will leech the nutrients in a weak solution, but burn up in an excessively strong mix.
I have notice that during the first 30 days of 12/12 the plants absorb the fert solution at a much more rapid rate than other stages of the grow, so I just keep adding every couple of days to keep the level above the pump inlet. These Nutes are very additive friendly from what the dealer tells me, but I have never used any boosters because of my frugal ways, and have always been satisfied with my yields, which in my opinion are more strain related than nutrient.

CLONING: Although I prefer the gel cloning solution from Olivias, which in my opinion is the best that I've ever used, I have for the past year or so using a powder that I picked up at Walmrt. I don't have the original jar, but I think it's brand is Bontone from the pics I saw on the website. It is slower acting to me, but very successful if the conditions are proper.

Beautiful plants Bud! Regarding cloning gels and powders. They each have their own problems. uccIrwin the Troll wrote:CLONING: Although I prefer the gel cloning solution from Olivias, which in my opinion is the best that I've ever used, I have for the past year or so using a powder that I picked up at Walmrt.

When I decide to clone a plant or a crop I use an aerated warm water spray cloner for efficiency and high rate of success.
I do soiless grows.
Just because I can't spell misanthrope doesn't mean I'm completely stupid.

I can't find the like button?!?! Anyway this is day 27, and I'm gonna put pics up every couple days, or I'll never find the post. Once it doesn't show up on the recent post page I have to start over.
