Indoor A newbies Grow Journal ... from it's Genesis to it's Rapture

DEAR DIARY:

Have thrown a thermometer into the proposed grow room, and have been monitoring it over the last week or so.
Sits on a constant 25ºC.

Outisde temp currently 35ºC.
Winter will be COMPLETELY different.

Might raise some challenging environmental control issues.
 
Winter may just be your friend, Yozhik. 25c is a good grow temp, and likely to go up once you have a tent with lights in it. Being able to pull cool air in from a large space is ideal.
Before you crack your beans, run your set up for a few days or even a week to see what the temps and RH look like in the tent. It's much less stressful doing that pre-grow; it gives you a chance to tweak things before they're critical.:thumbsup:
 
DEAR DIARY:

Some helpful toys to add to the Wishlist.

You think too much my friend...and have a wish list longer than my very tall friends outstretched arms! :)

Paralysis by Analysis has been a long and trusted lifetime companion ...
 
DEAR DIARY:

Finally some actual DECISIONS have been made!
HALLE-freakin-LUJAH.

Just ordered and paid for the Advanced Nutrients as per TaNg's feeding schedule.
HOLY SNAPPING DUCK SHIT!
That shit ain't cheap ...
Opted for the smaller bottles, wherever possible ... but still a hefty sum.

A few other goodies too ... the boring BUT essential stuff:
Plagron Light Mix, as per TaNg's template.
30L Air Pots and trays also on their way.
A couple of tent fans, and a timer for the lights.

Still waiting on the Mephisto beans to arrive.
Ordered them over a week ago ... welcome to the Spanish postal service in August.

It's slowly coming together.

DEAR DIARY:

VERY frustrated today.

Seeds that were sent 11 days ago still have not arrived.

A significant order from a grow shop, according to the courier via the tracking number supplied, has allegedly been 'delivered'.
It hasn't.

6 x 30L of Air-pots were delivered, but nothing else.

Considering part of the order was 4 x 50L bags of soil, it would be a little difficult to misplace those, or for their to be uncertainty of whether or not they had been delivered. Last I knew, bags of soil weren't winning any prizes for their expertise in playing hide-and-seek.

Don't even get me started on the gazillion bottles of Advanced Nutrients also allegedly delivered. [but not]

This is turning into a nightmare, before its even begun.

Seeds, numerous bottles of nutrients, oscillating fans, bags of soil, light timer box ... all ordered ... all paid for ... nothing received.
 
Carriers are very good at dumping things with neighbours and not letting you know...or better still, blaming incorrectly formatted addresses...get a copy of the labels and the delivery notes, I'm willing to bet something is wrong there somewhere...
