Well good job on your nutrients at least!
You using RO water?
Do you mix your CaliMagic VERY FIRST?

It’s my first grow, that is why I am asking for information. Is the light no good for a budget light? yes I am using reverse osmosis water. I am yet to give them a feed other than cal-mag as they have just sprouted. The information I found online suggested that flora micro needs to be added first, is this false?

Running a par600 right now, mine is 185w at the wall I think. I have supplemental t8 LEDs with it till my QBs come...so lights are ok depending on your expectations and space. If you already have the light and can't send it back then run it I would guess you might have 300w or so with that fixture

yeah ive used both PAR/Reflector modles in the past, not the best LED but it will grow alright buds,

add calmagic first, unless your using silica,
run 18/6 for veg,

what size tent/room?
are you going to be running it full power or with switchs?

 

[Klum]

good to know, my tent is 4x4, I’ll have 3 plants in there and the light will be on full power.
So Calmag first, micro second, gro and bloom in any order? Lucky I asked lol
Also it says the actual power draw is 543, but should I check this myself?

Yes. You always add calmag first otherwise you will lock out everything.
CalMag, stir. micro, stir. Gro, stir. Bloom, stir.
