Hey everyone thanks for stopping in to check out my 1st grow!
I'm 25 days in from planting right now, decided to post for any feedback/help

Seeds - 3 Fast Buds Blackberry Auto, 1 World of Seeds Northern Lights x Big Bud Auto (freebie)
Lights - 4' T5 4 6500k HO bulbs
Soil - FFOF with added perlite
Nutes - General Organics Go Box which includes BioThrive Grow & Bloom, BioRoot, BioMarine, CaMg+, BioWeed and Diamond Black
Pots - 2 Gallon buckets, holes drilled in bottom
Grow area - Tent size = 48"x24"x60"
Temp control - Fan blowing in air at the bottom into tent, oscillating fan inside tent. Temps have been around 76F but sometimes get up to 82F

Using RO water, pH is in the 6.3-6.7 range each use with or without nutes.
Noticed a few nute burn spots on leaves so backed off a bit.
Currently been feeding a little biothrive grow, bioroot, and biomarine
Just tied down the 2 Blackberry on the right because they were getting much taller than the others, trying to keep the canopy as even as possible

Will update from here on out. Any suggestions/stopping by to say hey would be great

Fed them with pH'd water today as I noticed some nute burn (or what I think is nute burn) on some of the leaves, but only the black berry.
I probably could have fed the NLxBB but decided to go with straight water like the rest. Uploading some pics of the leaves that look burned.
Also, is this the best way to add pictures? Seems like they load slow, maybe its just my computer.

Your light is too close !!!!!!!! Should be up to 20cm-40cm above the canope
Easy on the nutes !! Only use 1/4 of the schedule. Stop feeding them with nutes for a week. Don't worry, but easyyyy boy

Why do you think my light is too close? Many many T5 grow journals say the light only needs to be a few inches from the canopy, which mine is 3" from the tops, haven't had any burns from the light and when i place my hand under it, not even warm. It's not a HPS :p
I also am using a very small dosage of nutes, 1/4. Gave them water today so I'll try the nutes again next watering.
 
This should be a good ride to follow. We are 1 day apart in the same size space. I got one of Herbies NL X BB going as well. Tormenting the devil out of her at the moment trying to get some action going on the branchlets. Different lights so I look forward to being able to learn and observe as you go along. Cheers.
