Hey guys and gals.
Just thought I'd share my first grow with you. I'm happy for every and any advice![Smile (: (:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
Setup:
- Homebox L
- 400W HPS
- Exhaust-Fan approx. 150 cfm (250 m^3/h); Carbon filter
- 6 approx. 3 gallon pots (11 Liters)
- Plagron grow mix with Perlite
- Fan blowing between light & plants
Strains (2 each):
- White Widow (Dutch Passion)
- Chronic (Serious Seeds)
- Super Silver Haze (GHS)
Got all of them as clones at approx. 7" (15-20 cm).
For now I haven't gone into nutes yet.
Up until now:
- Soil pH seems pretty stable at about 6.5
- Humidity at around 40-55% most of the time (some peakes at 60%)
- Temperature is a bit of a problem at the moment... Outside temperature is at about 85F
(30°). Trying to keep temperatures below that (average for daytime temps. 80F (27°)
nighttime temps. 73F) but now and then it peaks at 90F for a few minutes...
- Light distance is at about 22" (55-60cm) due to the heat issues.
- I LST'd them a bit in veg (and occasionally still am) for a bit of height controll und better
canopy penetration.
Start was on the 26th of July. Vegged them for 10 days before switching.

By the 2nd day (12th day total) of flowering their height averaged at about 11" (30 cm):

Today 13th day of flowering (23 days total) they average at a height of 23"-24" (60 cm):

Sorry about the bad pic quality. I hope to get better shots in the future.
