Greetings all. This is my first indoor grow w/o using hydroponics.


~Setup~
  • Seeds / Nutrients
- 60 Day Lemon Auto (x2) from Attitude
- Fox Farm lineup w/ Cyco XL, Bot.Care Cal-Mag, RO Water
  • Tent / Ventilation
- GrowLab GL40 (1'4" x 1'4" x 3'11") w/ two lower open & close vents by Velcro, two intake/outtake ports (one on top, one low), and a third outtake for chords coming out of the back.

- 4" 190 CFM Inline Fan w/ small charcoal scrubber.

- 3.5" stationary fan head (low/high settings)
  • Lighting
- Mars II 400w Full-Spectrum LED (80x5w)
(Dimensions {13" x 11" x 3"})
  • Medium
- Water expandable coco blocks 6 gallons total, perlite (75%,25%??)
- 3 gallon Gro Pro grow bags (10x)

I have done one hydro grow in the past using DWC and a bigger tent, you can find the pictures through my old post if you'd like to see. Unfortunately I lost that plant, so I am 0-1 in marijuana cultivation. Any tips here would be appreciated. This things is my closet. I have all necessary measuring tools. I'd love your input, thanks. -logo

Did you use that light for the last grow or is that new? No raining on your parade, but just to make sure... You are aware that's not a 400W light correct? I think those run around 250W or so, could be wrong can't remember exactly. Might be closer to 280. Either way will be interested to see how it goes. Plenty of people willing to help here if needed if you're willing to listen.

That's mighty good news to hear because I was skeptical to buy that light. But with 1.5' x1.5' I needed something smaller and better than a cfl setup

Still waiting for the light to come in. Only thing holding me back from starting these seeds. I think I'm going to run Afghan Kush x 2 (bagseed from a buddy), and DNA Lemon Auto x 2 in 3 gallon grow bags. Not sure how 4 plants will do in such a small tent (1.5' x 1.5') but I plan on LST'ing the Afghan and will do the same with the auto if space doesn't permit them to grow properly.
