Was hesitant to start a journal but why not heres a really brief background as far as my growing experience.

Started growing after obtaining a lic at the beginning of last summer started off with a 5x5 tent 2 months later upgraded to a large flower and veg room roughly 17x9 and 5x7 tents are great I just prefer a full size room to work In so built a room from.scratch as a noob...

First couple harvests dis not go well fought PM and critters but learned a ton .

Had to sell the house and move on so I lost my big rooms our new house space is limited so i went back to grow tents .

ALRIGHT SO I HAVE HAD THIS TENT SYSTEM SETUP FOR A WHILE NOW AND EVERYTHING SEEMS TO BE WORKING GOOD I AM.3 DAYS INTO 12/12 AND THE 2ND DAY I WAS SUPRISED TO SEE 2 MALES THAT HAD ADVANCED VERY QUICKLY SINCE SWITCH .

ALL MY.GROWS SO FAR HAVE BEEN UNDER LIT COMING IN AROUND 35 TO 40 WATTS PR SQ FT WITH OLD HPS BULBS SO YEAH I AM.EXCITED TO SEE WHAT 1800 TRUE WATTS CAN DO IN A 4X8 !


I HAVE GROWN 3 OF THESE STRAINS PREVIOUSLY
CHOCOLATE HAZE / SIDERAL/BRUCE BANNER
I LOVE THE CHOCLATE HAZE EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NOT HAD IT FINISH CORRECTLY YET .

SIDERAL AND BRUCE BANNER TWO HARD HITTIN STRAINS I EXPECT THE SIDERAL TO BE COVERED IN TRICHOMES WITHIN 1 WEEK FROM.NOW !

Veg tent those plants are going outside in a few weeks hence the size of them plan on excavating large holes by hand for 2 of them and other teo will go in 55 gallon pots but considering 100g pots but is it worth it for an ontario season which is usually 2 months of veg then flower who knows .

As a beginner other than PM and pests I think I hav even lucky with growing I mean I stick to a strict regiment for feeding .

I am also using city water straight from the tap and the water has been softened as well but no real issues with that .

I use calmag every watering !
I feed every other watering sometimes every 3 waterings .

My humidity is very low around 30% I have tried humidifers in the last with not much luck hard to raise humidity alot with such big fans as well.

I will keep this journal updated on a weekly basis witha progress report and photos in case anyone is interested .

Please feel free to comment or add any input good or bad.
