80x80x160 600w led auto grow.

As another relative newbie (1 year in, 3rd grow) (and i am assuming you are new to growing not just to the site so apols if that is not right), i think you will get a decent yield- i am learning that the whole environment counts and you have solid seed banks. I reckon your yield will be enough to cover more than your investment to date. My first run i was trying to emulate all the experienced growers here in terms of final results but actually just getting to the end and learning from mistakes was really valuable. If you can, treat every g as a bonus at the end. It will take a while and some tinkering to dial in the environment. and if you are new to growing, you may not realise what problems are as they occur, so take longer than the pros to work out how to fix them.

Your space size is similar to mine and what has really helped for me is training to keep the plants moderate in height- i can recommend autobeast on this site- and there is a guided grow going on at the moment which might be interesting for you. best of luck

Thanks for the advise. I was aiming around 7 to 12oz... I have grown in the past but with hps lights. And from cuttings. Coco and nutes on a drip feeder. I would get a k of 8 plants. Or just under when dried. This was the lemon haze. But we are taking years ago
And I just want a small tent in my spare rolm and a led. I have been told by people they have got amazing results out of 2 auto plant with LST some say 500g some times... I will be happy with a oz of each if I'm honest lol

So I have planted the seeds into soil on Friday. I have my light set to 18 and 6. I have used bio all mix at one half of the pots and light mix for the top. I have dripped water over the soil were the seeds are and put the seeds in around a finger nail deep. I have sprayed water on a plastic cup and placed it around where the seed is located. I have a small fan on up high. My temp is around 23 to 26 and I have pored a bit of water on the floor for humidity. Not sure what the humidity is. I am still wating on the meter from amazon. So its been 54 hours and no sign of life.... should I be concerned?

This is how the set up is atm.

that all looks good- more experienced people may have more intel- the plastic cups should help the rh whilst you wait for the meter. seeds can take a fair few days to pop. did you soak or wet towel them? if not it might be a while. I don't know the mars hydro that well but if that is the height you have it, maybe check the recommendations for height above seedlings as you may end up with some stretch if not (top tip, a bit of extra soil in pot covers up a multitude of stretching errors)

I put the seeds in the soil about a finger nail down and put a little bit of water and them with the cups over. Yesterday I put a few more drop of water on top on the seed soil.

sit back and wait. i'd stay cautious on the water, they don't need too much at this stage. if you are feeling fidgety read autobeast thread on topping ~ possibly too scarey for a first seed grow. you are in the right place here and have clearly done your research, so you will be golden when they poke through.

600 true watts would be a bit overkill for that tent size but that light isn't 600w anyway, probably max 80-100w

What strain is that? fwiw I have a Mars 2.3x2.3 tent w/ a ts1000. My 2 plants are overfilling the tent and the ts1000 is too small to handle my Fastbuds Strawberry Pies. Wish I bough the set separately and gotten a ts2000 for this tent.

Not just the topping one, he has one that’s called how to grow healthy autoflowers seed to harvest! May not be exact wording...
