My First Grow Ever

Welcome to my grow log, this is my first attempt at growing.. I am currently using bag seeds till I get the hang of things.. Hope you enjoy the log.. P.S. I am still waiting on my mylar..

Day 1 (Seeds Just split, and I added them to rockwool cube, and set them in my veg area.)

So far so good . What are u plans for that area? Turnin it into a hydro? Or what?

That area is gona be an area for one mother then a bubble cloner I am building, My main area is 3x2x5.5 feet tall, its gona be my flowering area its gona have 8 2gallon hempy buckets, Also I am gona use a seperate area for vegging, its like a tv stand type deal its got a cabinet thats 3x3x2 tall.. That will be my true veg area after I convert it...

The area in the pics above will be mother and cloning area..

Alright got some good news today, my HPS setup arrived today and I have it installed in my main flowering area, still waiting on mylar and venting equipment..

HPS

Finally some signs of life, I am having alittle bit of heating issues, it's running alittle hot like 84-86 degress, I am going tomorrow to purchase another inline fan to take care of the problem..

how many watts on ur hps?

My HPS is a 250watt I only have 6 square feet so, its enough.. I plan to upgrade to Some Home box Tents and a 400watt setup after I make some money, I need about $1000, I am waiting on ventilation parts to come next week through UPS

checked in glad to see another hempy grower...... I am considering a 250w hps also, currently using cfls, let me know how you manage to heat please..... what type of nutes are you going to use??

Your setup looks awesome Damion5050 and you know I had to come over to show my support for another Hempy brother. Can't wait to see your grow develop, you're gonna love Hempy!

Well today I got my venting issues sorted out went and bough another 4 inch inline fan to suck air into my cabinet, as well as a 4 inch to pull hot air out.. As far as the plants I am very happy 4 out of 5 of the seeds have sprouted and broke the surface and the 5th looks like it will do the same tomorrow..

I was wondering if anyone knows about when I should transplant them into party cups, I made mini hempy buckets out of party cups for the next stage.. Then I'll finally but them into 2 gallon tubs or maybe 5 gallon tubs..

I have pretty much solved my temp problem, it was at nearly 86-88 degrees yesterday but with the install of the intake fan it is holding steady at 79.5 degrees.. I am a happy camper

As far as nuts I bought GH Flora Nova Bloom and Grow, It was either that or Fox Farm Prodcuts, I will buy some fox farm and try them next time.. If you look at one of my pics you can see the bottles of nutes on the top shelf

glad you got your heat under control I got my chair pulled up, stop by my grow when you have time its been a wild ride, but I am hempy as well ..... good luck

Ur set up looks nice and well done , im following ur growing

Well life is good and so are the plants for the most part.. As I though the 5th seedling came through and is out of the rockwool cube and is looking good.. Temp is Holding steady right around 79-80 degrees.. Plant were at about 6 inches from the light looked alittle stretchy so I moved them to about 3 inches away.. Besides that all it good..
