2nd attemp at a 1st grow!! All advice welcome

Hi everyone again, my last grow attempt was a disaster but hopefully learned something from it , all I got was stunted runts that never got more than 2 "


My setup was a
60 60 140 gro tent.
1 x Znet4 200w LED light
Soil mix (I just took ones that were light and recommended for tomatoes i think as language problem a big factor where I am )
Perlite.
Ph indicator and acid/alch sachets.
2 fans

Ok so I think I completely burnt the wee girls and probably over watered them too boot, plus my PH indicator was cheap and nasty.

OK onwards and hopefully upwards!!.
The tent, lights, fans I will keep the same for now.
I tried growing Autos Sin TraBajo and Malana Bomb.


I will now try Lowryder as I have been told they are a little forgiving for dumb asses like myself.
I have now got Coco Coir from a company call GALUKU if anyone has heard of them?
and I plan to mix with 30% perlite,I understand that its very hard to over water Coco? and there is no nutes whatsoever so I should burn the roots this time? Is 10 L pots ok for this? Should I put few stones in the bottom of the pot mixed with perlite for better drainage ?
I understand that Autos MUST be germinated and planted in the Pot they will spend their short life (not as short life as the last time!)
I know people told me no need to feed for first couple of weeks , is this true with Coco?
I managed to source sensi grow A&B and sensi bloom A&B in small 500ml and also have a 100ml of Big Bud if I ever get near to using that .
I have ordered PH 6.5 water but ive been told I will have to buffer that to 6.
I am looking at a fan intake and out and should get that soon as well as a carbon filter but I will leave that until I get some results .

I have pics on my last thread, but heres one from last time.

Cheers guys








.

good luck with your grow!!

Yep lost the plant but gained valuable experience..

Listen mate don't take this the wrong way I was following ur thread the last time and just wanted to give a bit of advice I no u r a carefull person but please do everything and I MEAN everything to stay under the radar in the country u r in even for a small amount of weed will get u years in the locker only a bit of friendly advice mate.

I agree with greenhouse! You cant survive if your country do honor the Healing Plant. Which i know the government is controlling. I would find anither hobby.

Hey man I'm on my first grow too and have made plenty of mistakes so don't feel 2 bad. Hope this one works out for ya

No guys the reason for my informal warning is because he is in china the rules as regarding mj r 10Times worse than anything In the uk or usa 10years if ur caught with a growing set up that's why the subtle warning...

good luck follow my grow to a sort of second timer too

Greenhouse cheers for that mate I know your being stand up on this subject but I got it covered and stealth is the name of the game and just keeping it too myself.

Perfect mate just felt it had to b said.i wish u all the luck and goodwill in the world and I'll keep an eye and c how u get on mate.

So 3 gallon pots to start from scratch and finish then?

China unless ur doing autos and I don't think u r start with small pots then medium then into the 3 gallons it will save u a lot of work in the full process plus money u can keep a closer eye on them as they progress through their cycle and c wot stages their at esyier aswell..

Yea Autos , last time was malana bomb and Sin TraBajobut been advised to start this time with Lowryder as they are meant to be more forgiving

So it is autos ur growing...

Yea stick with the 3 galls then...

For a first time grower I thought u would've stuck with short flowering photos but hey ho it's down to how ur preferences...related

I know now mate but I got a load off dif autos and I might as well try ... I have decided to stay in the same gaff mainly due to stealth so will start quick smart , hopefully get better results this time, using coco {well washed} and 30 percent perlite in 12L pots which is roughly 3 gal. Plant from seed in pot and try not too over water , only really want to grow one but will keep a sister to the side for back up as my previous nongrow was so shite and I have no idea of the coverage from lights , will keep led about 18 to 20 inches above seedlings , dunno if that right but as usual any advise is good. Fuck me those LED lights after a minute or so I just see yellow so now I swith off before tampering !

anyone used pots like this?

Never seen them before but they look like good pots don't no so much about how the bottom on them would affect the drainage u should do a dry run with them no seed just soil and c how long it takes to dry out only a suggestion mate...
