This is going to be my first grow, so bear with me. I'll be posting as much as I can, with pictures, and I'd like for you experienced growers to drop knowledge.
My grow room is a 3x3x6.5 Hydrohut, which is basically a pre-made room that can be zipped up -- very clean but limited space. In it I have a 40 gallon resevoir, which sits under a wooden frame I made of 2x4's to support the 3x3 tray that holds the goods. In the tray I have 3 rows of 4 coconut cubes and hydroton everywhere in between. The first row is Snow Cap. The second and third rows are C-4. I bought them as clones and put them in the coconut cubes. They are under a 1000w MH light and have been vegging for exactly a week since I got them. In my hut I also have two 50 cfm fans blowing air in through ducts and two 50 cfm fans at the top of the hut sucking air out, 4 total. Picture 1: Setup, Picture 2: Lighting, Picture 3-5: Rows 1 2 and 3, respectively. |

I'll use numbers to identify each plant. Plants 1-4 are the first row, starting with 1 in the front. 5-8 are row two, and 9-12 row three, same pattern.
Here's what row 1 (Snow Cap) looks like one week after planting the clones in the cubes: |

Thanks ablazed, I tried to plan it out as best as I could, it's cost me quite some time and money, but now that everything's set up it should be fairly simple.
Yes, I have been using nutes. At the hydro store, I got a print-out from the guy with suggested nutes for vegging and flowering stages, specific for my 40 gal res. A week into it, I can see that I should have cut back on the nutes, so I'm flushing the tray and refilling the resevoir, this time with less nutes than recommended, I'm thinking half--maybe less. |

Tonight is the start of week two. I flushed the tray and refilled the res. I also took some pics of the plants that seemed to be having problems. Hopefully they like the water better this time.
The pics are of plants 2 3 4 and 11, respectively. |

A few things
1 you need ph and ec testing kit so that the nutrient fluid you give them is perfect 2 need to cover the tops of those rockwool cubes, its likely it will cause problems if you don't 3 looks like your doing a good job apart from that |
