Due to 200% increase in MMP in Ohio I am taking advantage of the 6-12 rule and growing my own. Wife bought me a small grow tent and now I have a new hobby. waiting on last of controllers for DWC chiller and will be off. Have stability charts from history on the app and now have an understanding of what moves temp and humidity. Ran a week of veg and a week of flower for charts and have my numbers in a spread sheet.
This place has saved me from making a dozen mistakes before my first grow. Will post in the journal and the grow room when I launch.

Cool, be sure to share your progress, or at least anything unexpected you may learn, even if you don't feel like doing a whole grow log. WHat are you growing?

I'm a big sillyhead and haven't grown since we legalized it, despite having everything necessary for DWC or coir/perlite, including good seeds. We've made a couple trips to Michigan and the price for great quality bud there is just too appetizing. And now there's a dispensary like 8 minutes from my house. Ohio rec prices stink so far but the convenience and variety are worth something. I'm taking advantage of the legal market to try some different edibles with CBG and CBD (with THC of course) to see what works best for my arthritis and poor sleep. My first legal grow will get rolling soon though, now that summer activities are beginning to wind down.

Here is an update. My last design change has me throwing away all my data. I have decided to partition my small tent with an insulated panel level with the dwc bucket net pots and use constant airflow from my lung room (basement ) to cool the buckets. It will still have light proof lower section and a one way hvac duct valve to pull air when the duct fan runs. By moving the blower and charcoal filter to the top of the tent and partitioning the grow space it has really cleaned up the tent. In addtion the recovery times and width of up/down are much narower. The cold buckets in the grow area ( 66 degrees ) would slow down the night to day transition with swings up and down until stable. With the light on the heat would rise but humidity could not keep even unless I changed the settings. Now the transition from night 70 degrees 55% to daytime 82 degrees and whatever humidity I choose before from recipies in history takes 15 minutes. Day to night slowly drops over a 4 hour period to just above basement temps.
Will be growing white widow photo as the whole internet says you should do photo and white widow first. Like training wheels.
The reason for the design change was safety related. I could not create a safety system for my home made chiller to shut off in the event of a leak. It would have doubled the cost of the chiller system and I have more time than money right now.
