Feel free to comment, also i can't type for shit.

alot of pics from the camera are dated and the grow started march 26 2020


SOOOOOO this is my first time growing buds. ive taken care of some of my friends hydro farms for them before but other then that this is my first shebang!
so i started with 4 clones from the pot shop and a delayed amazon shipment on my lights and ended up having to hit home depot in a pinch and grow in a closet
the humidty and heat was tricky but i figured it out

added an led light buld from my storage and my little led work light from my tool chest and there they began after i transplanted them into the 1 gallon pots day 1 arrival of " 8" clones" (more like 6")

after a week of nothing but around 6.5 ph water i transplanted them to 4 gallon pots (upon learning mine were far to small) and the shipment from amazonhad arived! my 48x48x80 grow tent and my 2 600w (224 true watt) blurple mars hydro grow lights (i know they aren't ideal now)1587076509246.png
1587076534329.pngabout 3 days later i gave them the first half strength nutrient bath of General hydroponics flora mix 2tsp gro 1tsp micro 1 tsp flora at 1/2 strength
1587076555209.png
i was battling heat and humidity issues this time heat was going between 70-90 during the day and humidity was 20-30% at best
1587076588115.pngi then watered them with regular water and gave them a 3/4 nute bath on week 2, the following day i fixed the humidty issue
also about day 12 i had a calcium issue i identified and started adding calmag to the mix (been adding every cycle along with regular water, not sure if thats correct)
taken 4/11

today i might have messed up and over nutriented them. i have them 3tsp of gro 2 tsp of micro and 1 tsp of bloom to gallon but we shall see im gonna need to adjust the nutrients from here, hopefully i didnt burn them.
ill post some more pics from today in antoher comment under regular light

also i apologize for all the led pics but if they lack problems its alot less of a pain in the ass to just take the pics in led (if you guys want regular light i can set up a thing to switch with a switch for pics but that seems a bit extra, but ill do anything for tips and tricks!)

So I got the new bava light in last week and finaly hung it monday afternoon, and holy crap the improvement is night and day, the only battle I seem to be facing is finding where exactly to hang them for light coverage and best distance. But I'll learn as time comes. Also fished out a cheapo 32w led for some underlighting, dont see it hurting anything so what the hell. Gonna do some experiments in a couple grows with the bavas and the blurples. I like the really tight spacing I was receiving from the blurples and hope it continues with the bavas (I wasnt patient and switched out the lights before week 8) but oh well everything's turning out great. Also considering getting some spider farmer lights to test against the bavas, as it looks like the bavas are a much higher quality but the af seem far cheaper from what I've read but I know nothing lol20200506_104509.jpg

Well shit was getting way to hot on that quantum board so I had to go get a 5000 btu ac unit, I know I probably got the wrong kind w.e it was a purchase on a whim but the babies are happy as far as I can tell, might need to up the nitrogen but I'm not 100%sure. Maybe I'm just seeing them differently without the blurples and worried lol
