Im a newbie to growing but have quite a good knowledge of growing through my research over the last 6 months. I recently (2days ago) planted a mix of 24 clones. PPP, white russian and armageddon. I am uploading some pics after i have finished writing this thread so you can see the room.

My set up from start:

Room size 2.5m by 2.5m, Covered wall and half raised floor in black and white pvc, Ceiling done in reflective foil pvc. I have a 5" carbon filter connected eight inch from the ceiling with hooks and chain, this is connected to 5" exhaust fan at the same hight from ceiling and this is all connected to 5" foil duct exiting the room to the attic, where i followed the duck up to a corner to exit the property near the chimney pipe to hide any heat and smell.

Then i have installed 2 x 4" fans to the oppersit corner of the ceiling and attached a T tube to split the fresh air coming in, 4" duct's follows down to ether side of the proposed bedding site in the room. thus giving constant fresh air to the plants at the correct hight.

I placed 2 x 600w lights at equal places above the bedding site and have attatched these to my ceiling with hooks and adjustable chains for ease of movement above the plants. I have also put up a shelf behind, but above the lighting system near the carbon filter so i can put the ballast for each light on so that the exhaust takes out most of the heat, as i understand they get quite hot.

All the wiring has been fixed to the walls with wire connecters and i have also used timer switches for the control of light and air, so that everything is neat and tucked away. I put in a fire alarm too. just for my own peace of mind.

ok some about my plants and planting system.

I decided to start my first grow in coco professional and to use CANNA products to feed. was quite costly but im hoping it will be worth it. Anyway first i potted up the 7.5liter pots with 1-2" of clay pellets then toped that up with 3" coco mixed with silverlight then another inch of clay pellet and then 3 more inch of the Coco mix. this filled the pots to the correct high and will hopefully give the plants air whilst keeping in moisture.

After this i put in my 60liter container and filled with tap water to 30liter, i have tested and corrected the Ph level and put in the first mixtures of feed that were recommended for that amount of water ( the first mix was at half strength). Whils't i did this i potted all my clones up and gave them there first feed of around 500ml each.

I am going to keep a diary and update it on here. I will also take photos of my little baby's week by week as they grow and post them.

If there is anything that could help me then please let me know as this is my first grow and any of your info would be much appreciated. ( yes im a bit geeky ) but isnt every1 in there own little way.

So thanks for everyone and happy time ahead. ( i hope )
