I guess maybe I am a dumby but I can't figure out how to post pictures on the thread...Any help with this would be greatly appreciated . On a side note I cant seem to get my humidity up I am using a little humidifier from walgreens and it raises it around 10% up and down kinda but stil can't get where I would like to be... Any ideas on how to raise this more would be great!

 

[Cosmic Charlie]

Ok well seems as though nobody is interested yet .... Anyway thought I would come give an update . Ladies and Gentlemen we have a front runner! One of the critical Jacks popped her little head today! As soon as I figure out how to put pictures on here I will put some up.

You can always put a bucket of water out to raise humidity.

Click 'go advanced' then click the paper clip in the text format options to add attachments. I'm subbing on this grow! Really interested in those strains and we're sure to see some badass performance with that 1000w and the rest of your stuff. 40-50% RH is where you want to be at right now. Anything above that doesn't really do much. You'll even be fine at 25%. Just make sure you spray your girls if it drops anywhere below that. I think you're fine though. Starting temp can be a bit higher for the first week to help the girls root. 85f at most is good. You can def pull 2o's + a girl off those 3 gallon pots if you play your cards right!

You should be fine with growing your seedlings in that happy frog soil. Just don't add any nutes until 3 weeks and when you do, do it 1/4 strength to see how the girls react.

It's a good idea to mix perlite into that soil to help with drainage, aeration and water distribution. Do 2 parts soil to 1 part perlite and mix it evenly.

Rep smackin ya for frolf and innova

Hey thanks a lot Vick ! I feel a lot better getting some good feedback! humidity now is staying between 40 and 50 , temp is pretty steady at 78. Ive got my Ballast running at 50% so only 500 watts now ... think I should turn it up ?
:five::group: Thanks for subbing in !

Thanks for all the Help Sugerman and Vick !! Pictures coming today thanks to both of your help!
