Hey Guys, I am starting my 1st grow soon - have ordered the seds and all the equip which should be here next week. I would really appreciate you guys taking a look at my plan and how i'm approaching this and FEEDBACK!
Here's what i got:
- RQS quick one (I'm a noob so)
- Grow tent 2'x2'x4'
- 300W Mastergrow LED
- vent-in + exhaust + carbon filter
- 2 gallon fabric pots
- potting soil at my local store that has coco, vermiculite, perlite, some other organic manure and they said it has macro and micro nutes in it.
plus I got ph testes, ph meter for soil, humidity/temp checking stuff. Neem oil for the pests, Seaweed extract for plants and Bloom supplements incase.
PLANPLANPLAN:
- seeds in water for 18-24 hrs
- then into peat pellets ( I really don't wanna touch the germinated seeds in paper towel)
cover the pellets, keep the humidity high, put them in warm and dark spot.
- once they're poking the head out, put the whole pellet in soil, water (with seaweed additive cause I heard they help the roots). Turn lights on. planning on a 18-6 cycle.
- week 2-4 attempt LST
- TAKE CARE OF THE PLANT (WATERING, PH 6.8, HUMIDITY 50+ ETC)
- Flower time decrease humidity (still figuring out how i'll do it without getting a dehumidifier).
- Flush a week before harvest.
This is the general plan guys, I know some shit is gonna go sideways. But I would love some advice on if I am doing something majorly wrong in my head before starting out. THANKS A LOT!!!
Put germinated seeds (small tails) directly into their final pots 3-5 gallons. Cover them lightly with soil once they sprout water them when needed!( not very much.) I usually keep them watered 4 inches circle around the seedling to avoid floating water gently untill rooted. I am curious if your light is a 300 draw watt from the wall of if its has a 300w output equivalent. In a 2x2x4 you will have to have your light at its maximum height and you will have to bend your tops down to train them low or you will run out of height room. Also you can only grow 1 in a 2x2x4 at once. Back to the light a single auto will do good on at least 180 watts of power from the wall anything less will notice low yields. That was my 2 cents good luck.
