Every indoor grower can benefit from measuring their lights with a PAR meter. Some lights

its gonna be my first grow ever sir.... after 5 years of research ( yes i know that seems crazy) , i decide to go with autoflow , i really wanted some very nice air circulation, still have to find a way to integrate my 8 x200mm noctua fan on the closet, but i have an carbonactiv silentbox1000m3 for exhaust ( i will push it at 50/60% ) organic with supersoil , i have to choose between Flo organic super soil with light mix OR Ecothrive Eco-Life Organic Potting Soil +light soil + actived charcoal, alfafa , kelp, Mycorrhize ( great white)... still have to decide
for the seeeds , its gonna be nightowl seed, brother in farm and mephisto... still have to decide witch strain.... im looking for fruuiityyyy terp

as you can see....im a liittle bit maniiiaaac...

You're a breath of fresh air, many including myself don't do any or enough research. However you are ahead of the curve in an usual way. I preach using a PAR meter or least buying from a reputable manufacturer but you have already have everything you need in regards to lighting.

I'm not a Soil grower to be of any help. Good luck though in your journey. A well managed environment can make or break a grow.

fells bless to read that, first grow , and no experience with any plant, nothing seems me natural with living species lol....i need data, measurement, explaination for everything....
exemple: watering a plant....for me its soooooo tricky...i dont know if its too much, or not, and i cant based my stuff on "put a finger and have look if its oook"....neeed specific order ahahaha....that why i ve reading that watering plant has to be done like 5/10% of water comparate to total volume .
anyway thank you sir, im still finishing the electrical part and ill make a diary, i definitly will neeed you help for the feeding on flower stage ( panic inside

)

i choosed blumat for the water feeding , hope its gonna be good , im wanna grow with 7 or 8 gallon pots
and i have to try the little buddie ( they are water proof) that l teknick send me long time ago ,i dont know if ill put them under the scrog for light feeding the lower canopy or on the side of the box:
2 set of buddies 4k95 cri and 2 set of buddie PC red

ok i have to stop flamming....cant wait
have an excellent day

I'm of the opinion common sense is as good as a LUX meter.

Max out your lighting and keep it 40 inches from young seedlings and early vegging plants.......Your plants will do ok. They will grow up to the lighting. But this method requires intense lighting.

I'm learning that you are right!

You got the buddies! Teknik is amazing and really knows his stuff. The 5050's in those buddies are incredible.

I think you're going to have some amazing grows as become dialed in. I'm no soil grower but there are plenty of great growers around that are good with it.

Much respect to you for really taking the time to learn. So much money and headaches can be avoided educating yourself and getting the right equipment.

oh sweet words from you sir, thank you
ok this is my plan for my futur " MICRO TEGRITY farm@Grisbi show ( yes its long name thread ^^)

i want to make an experimentation and start the veg stage with my nichia optisolis 5000k97 + 20% of 730nm far red , would promote leaf extension while making bushy plant, i really think its will be perfect for autoflower strain
for flower keep the 5000k97 , cut the 730nm and push the redness with the 660 + nichia@2000K and add uv migro + teknik buddies for lower canopy
last 2 weeks i will cut the 5000k97 , pushing more the nichia 2000k + uv + buddie and add the cree xd 16@3500k they are amazingly powerfull ( 6w/led) and will help penetration down the canopy when grow area will be full packed

have to stp wasting the purpose of this thread!!!
have great day/night

I was trying to express that non staff often have opinions that are honest and true also. The people expressing ( creating Grow Journals) grows with XXX Brand Lights, thats who I refer to. Thats on all sites though.
