Should i be Worried about soil?

Yeah a tent is definitely better, especially for ventillation and environment control.

I use the panda film right now just to block off enough space for one mother plant and a light, so ventillation and env. control arent as important, but tent is best.

Thanks for the idea for extra room if needed, i didn't Think about that.

My Happy Frog gave full nutrition for 9 weeks, then bam nothing. I used GH 3-component in a “drain-to-waste hydro” mode which finished them nicely.

Your plant looks very good imo.

I also recommend flat white paint.

It’s “soilless”. My talented grower partner uses a medium of 2:1 coco coir and perlite. No nutrients and excellent drainage.

Basically you pour nute through the medium until slight runoff. Occasionally flush with some water. Big advantage is you have no worries about selective or differential nutrient use because every watering us fresh complete nute.

Look up Gen Hydro’s “drain-to-waste” or DTW nutrient schedule. I’ve done soil, I’ve done hard hydro, and this method seems to me to be an excellent middle road between soil and reservoir hydro. Jmo

Since your soil will probably be good through veg, I don’t recommend a silica supplement. But you may need to amend the GH 3-part with a cal-mag supplement. CaliMagic is an example.

Ok I’ll look into it, just don’t really no a time table to start flowering, don’t want nothing too tall for indoor discreet grow.

As long as you have a good exhaust and watch the humidity late flower. Should be alright.
It's usually when you have concentrated moisture levels in the end of the grow is where the issue starts to appear.

A temperature gauge in a grow room is one of the most important tools in the battle for climate control.
