Perpetual Perfection…

Perpetual Perfection…
3 tents. Seedling/clone(2×4), veg/dry(4×4), and flower tent(5×5). One of them has to be the dry tent. Figured they could go in the veg tent once I harvest the flower. 14-16 days drying, then transplant the seedling/clone tent and move into veg tent. They would have about 45-50 days to veg give or take. Or they could go in the flower tent, but that is obviously my 2nd choice so there’s no delay in the flower room. Is there a better way to accomplish a perpetual grow with 3 tents? I’d love to hear some ideas. Thanks DGC!

Sounds pretty sweet. Wish I had bigger flower area. You might have have room in veg to run an auto as well.

I have a 3-tent setup also but slightly different, I use an AC Infinity clone dome with lights for my seedlings and clones, 2×2 tent for veg, a 4×5 tent for flower and one more 2×2 tent just for drying.

If I have to add a tent, I will but wanted to hear from guys and gals that have alot more experience, and smarts before I do! Thanks for the responses!

Perpetual sounds good on paper but be aware of the commitment required. Most have no idea how much work/time is actually involved.

Thank you @jmystro! You are not kidding about the work! It is a full time job for sure. I ran perpetually for about 2 years, until my wife’s surgery. Just didn’t have the time, but she is doing better so I’m going to get it running again. I appreciate the response, brother!

I know the feeling. My cancer kept me out of the grow for over two years until I was finally able to recover from surgery. Now I’m back on the grind I live for. Proper prior planning is a very large part of perpetual growing that you sound familiar with. More veg space is always needed. I try to at least have as much veg space as flower space. Mother plant replacement and/or seedling schedules need to be in line with flower room plant count and size requirements. Knowing the genetics you’re growing allows for schedules to be and stay on point. It really helps to know way ahead of time how long a plant takes to go through each stage of it’s life cycle in terms of planning and scheduling.

Automation? Irrigation? Definitely a steady work flow
