hey guys! new to the website and this will be my first grow. i have been around growing quite a bit but never bothered to learn anything. just a smoker and came across an awesome deal for a tent and light setup so i said hey why not! i will be growing 4 plants, all different strains that were clones my brother gave me and will be using coco as medium and mills nutrients. I will be documenting this grow throughout the entire cycle fairly often so i hope you guys enjoy and please feel free to give all the tips and advice that you can but please no negativity or random discussions
now lets get to it.....
equipment: (this is what i snagged for 80$ from a buddy of mine. all in good working condition)
Ok enough talking. here you go:.
the bulbs:
6" inline fan
nutrients/PH-down and cheap PH pen
some all natural coco
and the autopilot controller
i first cut a 6in hole in the drywall in the corner where i would vent the tent and placed a ducting adapter over it. i will be resting the fan on a hole on the top of the tent and then right to the ceiling
here is the tent setup with lights all ready to go
so thats what im working with. like i said its doing very well as far as holding the temp range that i want it to be at. it makes my closet a dam vacuum so i just open the door and try to manage the temp of my bedroom with the window and am getting it down just right. transplanted the clones into the 3gal fabric pots today and gave them just some ph'd water at first.(only roughly 6in around base of plant right after transplant) will begin feeding when they need to be watered next and then rotating between water and feed from then on out. dont have many pics of the plants yet but will have more up soon
heres the 4 babies. two in back are a little older (week maybe 2) that im hoping i can top in another week to try and have all plants same height)
now lets get to it.....
