Hey everyone, So i just started up my first grow tent this week and I am using a 4 bucket airoponic system sitting under a 400w sunburst. Pictures coming soon. I'm currently in day 3 of the grow! I will try to update this journal as much as possible so hope a lot of you will follow and enjoy!

Hey everyone, so here are the pictures of my grow tent, So far its day 3 and i already have 1 wilted plant and another one looks as if he might be heading in that direction. I'm learning how to do this as i go so any help would be great. Thanks! hope you all enjoy watching these little guys.


What i have in here is a 400w sunburst light with a halogen bulb, 4 seperate air pumps for each container 1 large stone and 1 small in each bucket. the clones are all cheese strain. 2 fans one clipped onto the back giving some circulation and the TV looking one is oscillating on the plants.

Its day 3 of my grow, here is what my set up looks like. Im using a 400w sunburst light from hydrofarm. The system is airoponics, the one pot with the glad wear is the plant that is wilting already. Im running these guys on a 24/0 light cycle, Im learning this as I go so any help would be great! I hope that once they start rooting things will be much easier? I've heard this is probably the hardest part is getting the clones to settle into there new environment. again this is my first grow and i want everything to go as smooth as possible and right now its proving a little difficult to get the tweaking right with the temp and humidity. So yeah anyone willing, let me know what im doing wrong all and any feed back will help me out alot. hopefully we can all watch these potential beauties grow on this site.



Here is my temp and humidity

Hey everyone, So Last night i tweaked around a few things and this morning my conditions for the grow tent became alot better, my temp is resting at a nice 79 degrees and the humidifier pumped me up to a nice solid 40 for that. some of the clones are still drooping but i think it might be due to shock of being thrown under a 400w, but im not sure. there leaves arent crispy yet so they still have life in them. lets hope they stay healthy!

So today I had to remove 2 of the cheese clones, I'm not sure what happened but there roots just didn't make it. the other 2 are holding up great, they have some really nice little roots coming in and they just got 2 new companions to join them. 2 bubba kush strain clones. so we will see how they do in the place of the other 2. I think i may have not but them deep enough in the pebbles and they just couldnt find where the water was. or I may have over watered them, like i said im learning as i go along. Pictures of the new guys coming soon.

Hey Purple, Yeah I like my Sunburst alot. I got it for free from a friend so I;m not sure how old the bulb is in it but so far its been working pretty well for me. I really like not having to deal with the ballast. When I flower though i have to find a converter bulb.

Yeah as of right now my light is an MH, I have an 8inch fan connected to my light housing right now. the only thing with the sunbursts i dont like is that they create a lot of extra heat because the ballast is built in so just make sure you have your temp down to a solid number before you start growing. and as far as i can tell you with how far my light is from my plants, its all about the hand test for me. if you put your hand at the top of your plants and your skin begins to feel irritated then your light is too close.

Hey everyone so the LST is doing good, im having some trouble taming it though but i think its lookin pretty good. I turned the plants around so that the backs of them could grow out alot more and also so i had to make the stem head work for some light. here are pictures of them. and again the cheese is on day 21 and the bubba kush are on day 17.
