First Grow - Blue Cheese

Hi, I'm a complete newbie to this site an growing as whole

My set up is :
19 clones
2x2x2m tent
2 x 600 hps
6" rhino filter exhust
4" inline fan ( from outside)
15 litre pot
coco medim
small desktop fan
nutes - vitalink coco coir growth feed... shud i be using more that just the 1 feed ?

I'm 12 days into veg from clone.

Been having a slight problem with
low humidity recently, varing from
below 20 to 40 depending on when
they wer watered. So I've just been
an got a mini fogger, doesn't seem
to workin much, not sure if it has
anythin to do with the positioning
of the fan. So just hung up 2 wet
towels. Humitity is now at 45, not
bad but would like it increased
while in veg.

Happy with the temp running no
higher than 87. Since I've put the
towels ect in, it's slight over 80.

One slight concern is that some
plants don't look as healthy has
others in the grow, if when there
right next to each other. Not sure
if this is common or not.

Any feedback an tip would be great.

Thanks.

mini fogger an fan. is it positioned correctly ?
 
shouldent the fan be pointing upwards i red sumwer but yeh ther looking cool when did they go under main lights?
 
ive tryed to angel it slightly so its not blowing straight from the fan to my filter. i had them under 1x 600w hps for just over a week from clone, then just recently put on the other 600w hps.
 
your temps are a little high for my taste - I got mine at 70f.......but 70-75 is really good - if they get into the 80's they stress to keep cool, IE Transpire to keep cool vs growing - I would get a little humidifier.....and I wouldn't put those HPS lights so close to the plants - really ideally you should in my opinion - get yourself a nice T5 HO 4' 8lamp setup if you got the scratch if not get a single 2' T5 HO 8laamp setup - then you could place it real close to the tops of those plants - then after a week or so put the HPS to use - just my 2 cents.. it will also lower your temps dramatically not having 2 600 watt HPS lamps on.

Coco Coir - u wanna keep your PH dialed in to around 5.8-6.0

check out my setup......

hello mate, yeah was think that myself, managed to get my temps dwn to 80, will get an fan 2mora hopfully that will bring it dwn at touch also. The humidity is in the low 50s now, think I might in invest in a small humidifier. I've not heard of these lamps (can u tell I'm a newbie) I'm gona look them up in the mornin. What's the benifits of these besides the temp, will it create a bigger yeild ? Also I have not got a ph meter, the fella in the grow shop said the water in my area was fine. Shud I still get one ?

Thanks agen for the feedback.
