Exclamation New UK Grower!
permalink
Hi guys n girls,

Hope everyone is well! Im new to both the site and to growing and have already set up my first grow/room.

I have a friend who has quite a bit more experiance than me so im lucky to have him to guide me where needed, however he isnt an expert and where he hasnt been able to help, so far this site has!

Ive not had the best start to be honest but its all going well now and im on my way.

Firstly i planted 8 seeds, 4 of which caught mites that ment i had to throw them as they were only seedlings. The other four were ready to be planted last night after i just finished my room but when i went down i found my pup had killed two in a leathal tail wagging frant!!

However my last two are in, and off and im planning on planting two more seeds tomorrow so ill have more chance of ladies

Ive tried to attach some pictures of my room so far. Ive built it to be as stealthy and inconspicous as possible - what do you think?

It has two different lights, Flouro for vegging and HPS for Flowering (Ive now sourced four more Flouros too!), An inlet PC fan and Outlet PC fan, Vents, Adjustable hangers and a self to keep everything neat and out of the way.

Ive yet to get a drip tray, build a custom carbon filter and paint the walls white. oh and put the opther fluros in!

Please everyone let me know what you think and any tips, suggestions welcome!!

Yeah looks like your off to a good start. but definitely like he said I really doubt those fans are going to be enough.

Also you want your intake fan on the bottom and your outtake up high, Heat rises so you want a fan sucking all that hot air out from up high.

Let us know how many watts your hps is and we can get an idea of the ventilation you need.

Anyways good luck, oh and what strain? bagseed?

To be honest your probably right and im not sure what CFM they are as there just bog standard 8cm PC case fans, but winters coming up and with the window open for fresh air, the fan is pumping in a fair amount of cool air.

Im also gonna try to use my fluros for the whole veg stage. With one light on all day today the temp was around 19C.

for the time being it will do.

thanks for the comments, the grow journal is a great idea!

My intake is at the bottom, with outtake at the top.

My HPS is 600w. im wondering if i went over board and should of gone for 400w??

The seeds are Nivara Snow White, the user "Snow White" did a vey useful tutorial as his first grow and thats how i found the site!

600 watt hps in a cupboard with 2 pc fans=fire and death.
You will need to use a cool tube and a proper extractor fan and intake fan or your running a big risk of at the least heat damaging your plants
