Ok got that out of the way. So I got the tent all setup and transplanted alot of beans into the 16oz stage. Uhm just to say again for anyone not following any of my other journals.
Im growing in 1 gallon pots 12/12 from seed. Fox Farm Happy Frog with about 30% perlite. I also add 1 TBSP of bone and blood meal to each pot. I just use the miracle grow brand from home depot.
I use superthrive at no particular inntervals, just when I feel the notion. Botanicare pure blend grow for early growth, they dont get a whole lot of this stuff being theres nutes in the soil and I grow 12/12.
Fox Farm Big Bloom for flower. I usually feed a half dose every watering, I have too many plants at different ages to try and keep track of whos getting what and when. I use tap water that sits in a sparkletts bottle with a bubbler in it. Its 225ppm and the ph is 7. My extraction fan is a 50 cfm bathroom fan, temps around 78 now but will go up in the summer, Ill need a fan change. RH is 20% always, I gave up trying to raise it and just grow with it now! Thats about it for now
Tent was easy to setup, $95 shipped off ebay for a 4x2. Kinda wish I had got a little better quality but it will do for now. Im already envisioning a 600 watt cool tube in here! Then use the LED for a veg chamber and kick it old school with a veg cycle!

You know I jinxed myself. Awhile back I commented on someone's thread that I've never fucked up growing, ever! Of course Murphy's law, I was in the closet a bit ago and casually noticed my temp was still sitting at 80. I was like huh that's weird to be warm still after being off 3 hours. As I glance closer I see light coming from the vent, aghh! Motherfucker when I set up the tent I accidentally turned the timer to on instead of timer... Oops! So there, I did it.
