Default bgmike8 first grow ever. all comments welcome
my room is framed with 2x4's. i used black and white poly. to cover it. i have made it pretty damn airtight because i am worried about the smell during flowering. however the fact that it is so airtight is giving me problems. when i turn on the exhaust fan the fucking seams want to rip. i may have solved that problem by adding additional intake. i have a 4inch hose constantly blowing in fresh air and a six inch passive intake as well. the addition of the 6inch has taken away some of the pressure.

please let me know what you think whether it be question or comments. this is my first grow.

my room is 8x10 7 feet tall.

i am set up for two 4x4 flood and drain trays each with their own 1000 watt light.

at first i am going to be growing from some bag seed in one of the trays. i am going to spray them with REVERSE and hopefully this will get rid of males and hopefully i will have a decent yield.

i am doing this while waiting for my thc bomb seeds from europe. the real plan here is to raise up some mommies and then fill both trays with clones from them.

check these pics out. i thought my water level might not be high enough, never realizing that the rockwool was sucking up water like a sponge.

i noticed today at noon and i am not watering unti noon tomorrow and then only twice a day. any comments?

think im guna get sick dude is thqt fuckin algae every where... what the fuck

take that dam tinfoil off, and there not supposed to be soaked lol or sitting in water at all....... thats why we put hydroton balls to seperate the roots from the rockwool

do something about the alge too man , its not the light getting on it.... my rock wool cubes are happy out in the lights i know u might worry about roots exposure but omg that tin foil it making moisture stay in and warming up probly with no air flow ur getting algea.... its not normal

okay, i can remove the foil but how do i stop the algae then? it kinda came with the seedlings-- i had them in a starter tray and when i stuck it under my new t5 the algae just spread everywhere and now it is spreading to the big cubes. i thought algae came from light and water???

p.s. goddamn your quick.

i have no life man , its march break and im waiting to harvest lol.

you cant have stagnant air being trapped in the cubes , step one they neeeeed lots of o2.... id say take those tin foils off throw that idea in the garbage lol
and with fresh air , light and love you should get it back... hopefully. so what are you doing with these cubed seedlings after this stage and if the algae doesnt go away garbage them you cant have this shit spreading man . but they need oxygena nd tons of it step one

the first pic is the best. they dont seem to be getting any worse so i guess that is good.
the cubes are still a little moist so i havent watered since yesterday at noon. do you think i should hold out till tomorrow?? or maybe i should water tonight ??

im worried about letting them get to dry and causing root damage.

today at about 10 am central i realized that my timer wasnt working and my plants were not watered at 8 am. {i had set it to start watering one time a day at 8}

the rockwool felt a little too dry to me so iwent ahead and threw a little water on top of the cubes because i was in a hurry. the plants didnt look to bad and some of them didnt have the downturned leaves anymore.

one plant was in bad shape though, it was laying over like it slumped over from a heart attack or some thing. so i was going to go back and take pics as soon as i could but when i went back the plant was standing up again! it will be the first pic. could it have been underwatered? and then fixed itself up because i topwatered it? this was at 2:30pm central time so only 5 hours

also if you look at the 1st pic you can see where i sprayed straight 3% peroxide onto the top of the cube. it cleared it right up. i wasnt suspecting the peroxide to be the problem because i sprayed 6 of them and nonoe else was slumped over.

so to sum it up; the first pic is the plant tthat was slumped over and the rest random pics of the plants. what do you think?

. it is not perfect now but it was completely slumped over like it was touching it's toes
