New Grower Brand new member, first ever grow !

I set my humidifier on the same timer as my light so they both shut off together. I keep my vent fan on it’s highest setting and I also have a fan that turns on when lights go out to add more air flow from the bottom up. I noticed my jumps were around 70-75 RH down to around 63 at lights out.
 
just a quick pick, and update on my Pineapple Glue, I really thought it wasn't going to make it,
after being the first to pop.it was looking sad. there's a pic earlier on the thread.
this is her a couple of days after that first pic

Two week update
two weeks ago today, I started my seeds using jiffy pellets, after having some initial problems with the pineapple glue and fast eddie, everybody seems pretty happy
right now.
the light is at 24 inches and on/off 20/4, the temp 77-79f , rh +/-60 , just watered as needed

Friday (9/6) was 3wks, I thought I'd post an update with a few pics
the two Stress Killers are the biggest, the Northern Lights and Pineapple Glue smaller
I might have made a mistake , thinking the seedlings needed more support, I added some soil for support, and now it seems it's time for some LST and I'm
dealing with some short stiff main stems, but some nice bushy plants, they look very happy and healthy to this newbie's (to weed) eyes
thoughts anyone ?
the "fe" thumbs are the Fast Eddy, who looks nice and healthy, just little
not sure if he'll finish in the tent

thanks !
the NL is the third in line, it's pretty bushy, I just started a little "bending"
not sure it qualifies as LST, the SK's got a little more aggressive treatment
 
Hey now! Just wanted to stop by and say hello to a fellow head. Your plants our coming along nicely. Keep up the good work boss!

Time for the ONE month update, this past Friday (13th) was the plants 4th birthday, during this week, there was some bending, careful defoliation, and their first feeding
I went with Mega Crop, about 3g/gal Sat, they got the most drastic bending, and some leaf picking, the girls looked a little rough, they got their first feeding,
checked them Sunday morning, and it was amazing, they had exploded,
there won't be any more major training I'll just try to keep bud site exposed to light as best I can.
I am go to add a light, and or just replace my current light.
can't decide whether to go COB or quantum board, but I probably should decide fast,

thanks guys, it's great to be here
it's been a busy day here, cleaning up potting mixes and composts that'd I'd left out
the other day getting my pots ready, a sudden storm came up yesterday evening and let's just say
I have a sore back !
ok, the layout
Mars Hydro 2x4 tent, and Eco120 light, I'm adding another light, haven't decided on what though
My soil is 12 parts Happy Frog, 2 parts Nature's Own compost, 2 parts perlite
I'm using 2 gallon containers, 2 plastic, 3 fabric, to see which I like better, I've never used fabric before
My tap water ph is 6.8-6.9
and for food, what I have on hand, and not really sure which way to go yet is MegaCrop, and Dr. Earth
The seeds :
2 Stress Killers (RQ)
1 Fast Eddie (RQ)
1 AK48 (NV)
1 Pineapple Glue (AS)

on 8/16 the seeds were started the Jiffy pellet way, the 19th, PG showing leaves, the rest behind, today
the 20th, everybody's head's up, peat pellets planted in the pots.
The bottom 2/3 of the pot's soil got watered in, then when I placed the pellets in the pots
I filled in the rest on the pot with dry, then misted the top of the pots,
and that's where we stand .View attachment 1093161 View attachment 1093162
I'm running 10 in 2x4 ull b fine !
