Default My first grow...
Hello all,

This is my first grow and thought I would let you all see it and tell me how everything is going. I am using a 1000watt air cooled hps, and my strains are 3 WW and 1 NL. Thought I would go small the first time and see how it goes. Let me know what you think or what can be done better. I have had some heat issues...and still do, but the yellowing on the plants is from heat stress I believe...but then again I am new at this whole process. The heat is still an issue as my temp in there is at about 90F so I am going to try and get a bigger fan cooling the light and hopefully that helps. So here's some pictures...give me some feedback

Thanks

Pred...

ok here we go, Day 13 and they seem to be doing okay. I am using nutes that I got from a fellow grower (for now) and will switch when I start flowering. Watering every 3 or so days, and misting the plants a bit.

Back to my grow room...


Damn temp issues....


WW #1 Growing well....I think

Should I be adding nutes every feeding or every other one?

honestly, your babies look pretty good for that stage so no big changes are needed. you want 1 gal of pot space per ft of height you want the plant to grow. you might consider insulated ducting if you;re still having problems with heat. also, be aware the quoted temp ranges for mj are for the thermometer at the top of the plant canopy but shaded from direct light. lots of people get an artificially high reading from the radiant heat of the light.

Thanks for your input and I hope you like my grow. I'm trying to do a good job.

As for the heat issue, I place my themometer in the foliage of the WW's and got a reading of 86F, I am thinking that is better and will do for now untill I get a better fan for my light?

Thanks

it will be ok but 5 f lower would be better, what's the cfm of the fan you have and what is the temp outside your grow area??
