Autoflower star dawg

So up to now im at my first week of seeding, 8x4 grow room, 400w to 600w boost lumi blacks..... up to know in the day heat wise im running 26 degrees and 60/65% humidity. Carbon filter and circulation fan.

im using one half of the tent under a single 400w hps for my seedling stage. all 10 seeds have sprouted today 5 days after potting! My lights are 16inch away, Im only feeding ph water at 5.5?

Im going to introduce katanna roots in around 2 weeks time? Then the week after im going to add a quarter strength of canna a&b

once i hit the veg stage im going to add in some cannazym at quarter strength and buid to as needed.

once I've reached the flower stage im going to lst them and start adding pk9/18 and split them down to 5 pots in 1 half of the tent flipping my 400w to 600w and same again in the other side with the other 5, any pointers and tips really appreciated. Would you change anything?

Looks good. Watch the watering in those big pots, otherwise carry on. The soil looks like it could be rich. Feed lightly if it is.

Great to hear mate thanks, should have mentioned its coco clay 60/40 ecotrive... i initially started with around 500ml of ph water in each pot to get it going.. and topping up as and when needed before it completely dries out...?

When they are small seedlings in a big pot you should only water the roots...which are quite small. So only apply water in a small circle around the seedling (but give it enough that it penetrates well into the pot...but doesn't get to the bottom).

Air needs to get to where the roots are, so if there is 3 inches of wet soil between them and the air that's when you'll slow your growth. That's the main benefit of starting off in small pots.
