Blackstar UFO LED 2 Plant Closet Grow
Whats up everyone. Decided to journal my first grow which is consisting of one Nirvanna Ice Feminized seed and one Sweet seeds Ice Cool Feminized seed. If anyone has experience with either of these two strains your input would be greatly appreciated. I am using a mix of Fox Farms Ocean Forest and Miracle Grow Moisture Control Potting Soil in 5 gallon smart pots from the beginning to cut out transplantation and minimize stress. The lighting I am using for veg includes two 135 watt Blackstar LED UFO one for each plant and three 23 watt CFL's at 5500k for supplementation that I will switch to three 100 watt CFL's at 2700k for flowering. I currently keep them on a 24/0 light cycle and they are about 12 inches above the top of the pot. The temperature stays between 80 and 85 degrees and the humidity stays between 40% and 60%. Any information on lighting height and proper temperature and humidity levels would be greatly appreciated. I germinated using the paper towel method using water mixed with General Hydroponics Rapid Start which I am planning on using throughout the entire grow. The only other nutrients I will be using are Botanicare Liquid Karma starting at day 14 through the entire grow, and Fox Farms Cha Ching during flowering. Any other experience, input, or opinions on these nutrients or additional nutrients would also be extremely appreciated.
Strain: 1 x Nirvanna Ice & 1 x Sweet seeds Ice Cool
Medium: Fox Farms Ocean Forest & Miracle Grow Moisture Control
Lighting: 2 x 135 watt Blackstar UFO LED & 3 x 23 watt 5500k (2700k flowering) CFL
Nutrients: Botanicare Liquid Karma (whole grow), General Hydroponics Rapid Start (whole grow), & Fox Farms Cha Ching (flowering)
Setup:

Do what you can to lower those temps, 85 seems high.

I've harvested the Nirvana Ice- nice smoke, mine was more indica type pheno with a yield of about 1.5oz cured per plant, lst'd to about 18", heavy dense buds, funky odor that strengthened with cure. Buzz can leave one semi-catatonic. Cloned well too.
I've also done Speed Devil Auto from Sweet seeds- very easy grow with good yield and smooth medium potency smoke. I went thru it fast.
Those were done with a 250w hps, but I've since switched it up to led- I'm using the HTG Supply equivalent of the BlackStar 240w. It is working great with my current grow (Rocklock and Sour Cream, two DNA beauties). I'm also using the same dimension tent 4X2X4 which I think is awesome if you are height restricted like me (I tie 'em down and never let 'em up).

Hell yea this is technically going to be my first real grow and i decided to go with the LED because its such a restricted space being 2x4x6. As for the temps there so fucking high ebcause my a/c in my house is fuckin broken and i dont know how to get them down. I got fans and shit but they arnt really doing anything. Any suggestions?

85 is not too high but it is about as hot as you want to get without supplemental CO2. With supplemental CO2, 85 is just fine and dandy. I don't currently use liquid karma but have in the past and it's very good, although expensive.
