CA5P3R's Friendly Mag+ Grow

Hey fellas! I been a little slow to start this new journal as December is a pretty busy time of year for me but thought I would post my slow moving progress thus far to keep all your cravings in check.


So I got a new tent for my Mag+. It is about 1.6ft x 3ft x 5.25ft. So not as deep as my other tent but a foot wider which seems to fit the Mag+ beautifully.


I don't really have any goals but having fun on this run. I beat the 1g/w goal last round so I have put that to rest and to be honest I am not sure I will be getting there with this setup because ideally I would be putting this light in a much larger tent to maximize my plant surface area, if trying to achieve the highest yields possible.


Also I am going to be running some new strains this time around from seed so there will be some Male culling I imagine and these strains are brand new to me so doubt I will be getting all I can out of them on my first try.


Should be interesting little journey regardless.


So far I have the tent setup, the light hung and that is about it. Still need to acquire my new strains and also bought the stuff I need for one of my little carbon filters but still need to piece it together. Also need to find a nice Tupperware container that will fit the bottom of the tent nicely for my run off catching.


Well I don't like to make these updates to long winded so I will leave you with a few pics of the new setup as it stands now. Also the pic with the 2 tents on either side of the closet door, the one on the right is the Mag+ and the left is my trusty old Mag357. Look at the light difference! This is going to be a blood bath.....


Stay tuned. I will update again once I get my genetics. :)

Sweet set up yo


Do either of your mag's produce a lot of heat?

Because I have a 300w Spectra led panel and used it in a similar tent, but temps got up in the mid 90's with outside temps around 80.

So I'm looking to swap out led panels.

Let me know. Good luck on the grow

I'm subbed!

I've got a Mag+ in a 4'x4' with a couple Blackstar 240's and 200 watts of T5 side-lighting. Looking forward to seeing how the Mag+ does on its own for you! :)

Thanks man!

They produce little heat. Well sorry the Mag357 in the 2x2 would take the temp up to around 80f max when the room is around 73f. I haven't got the Mag+ running fulltime yet so I will let you know once I do.

I always like to dial in my environment before I introduce the plants, much like starting a salt water aquarium.

Hey fellas!


Hope everyone had a good Christmas Vacation I know I did! Time to get back to work though and that means time to start entertaining with my antics once again.


So it's a new year and as you know I am kicking it off with a new light (Magnum+) and now with some new Genetics!


I am super excited to get this one under way and have gone a little TGA Subcool crazy. I must admit I have been eyeing these 4 strains for quite some time now and was glad I was able to pick up all 4 today.


I got the following


10x Qrazy Train
10x Pandora's Box
10x Vortex
10x The Flav
6x Cali Connection Mixer Pack


The Seedbank was nice enough to give me the 6 Cali Connection seeds to try out but don't think they will make an appearance in this round.


I am still debating what to do. Maybe you guys can help me decide.


I was thinking I might do 8 Plants under the Mag+ so perhaps 2 of each strain. Hopefully I will get a female out of each strain.


Then once I have some nice females I will clip clones and ready them for a intense SCROG Casper style on my next round.


Or do you guys think I should just pick 2 strains to run with for now.....


Well that is up in the air a bit and if I run 8 plants I will have to switch back to the standard 2G pots instead of the 3.3G Airpots.


Well tomorrow is my first day with no obligations in quite a while so I think I will spend some time getting the New tent all dialled in and then start Germing.


Almost time folks, stick with me :)

you will clone from plants that are already flowering? you put the clone under regular vegging light cycle after the cut? sounds like a good plan
