Indoor Dark Devil, 900w Mars, Coco/ Newbie!!

[canocrpse86]

Hey guys,

I originally posted this in the introduction thread but I guess I should make it a journal.
So this is my second grow ever and first time doing an Auto. The strains I'm using will be.

- Dark Devil (Sweet Seeds)
- Pineapple Express (Fastbuds)
- Girl Scout Cookies (Fastbuds)

The equipment setup is

- Lumin Tekco 36x36x72
-Mars2 900w LED
-Ventech 4in Carbon filter and fan

Will be growing in coco in 5 gallon fabric pots. Using House and Garden coco nutrients and Calimagic to suplement.
I'm having some issues with heat in my tent at the moment but outside temps right now are upper 90s all week long. I have all my equipment set up for environmental testing and tweaking. Still waiting on my beans to show up. At the moment I am running A/C directly into the tent through 6in ducting and exhausting with the 4 inch setup. With the exhaust fan running on high there is still negative pressure inside the tent. RH is around 30-40%. I also have two 6 inch clip fans for interior ain't circulation.

I thought I had problems with heat but not compered to you. Where do you live ? I'm guessing the u.s somewhere. It's a good job your not using a hps as you'd have no chance. Good luck with everything though it'll be OK in the end just look on line for advice, there is always someone out there who'll have a answer

Yeah I'm in the southern US. Hopefully next week the outside temps will be dropping to mid/ high 80s and I'll have an easier time of it. As is I should still be able to pop the beans and start. By the time they start flowering it should be sep/ oct anyways. Right now I have gotten temps down in mid to low 80s while air conditioning the tent. We will see how it goes.

OK a southern, I'm a southern aswell but in England and place called Ipswich about 50 miles from London. I've got 3 autos on the go at the moment, white cheese there about 2 weeks from harvest and not looking to bad. It's also my first grow, their in a 4 by 4 tent under a 600 hps. I started in the summer ( not wise I know) and I had really bad problems with temperature at one stage it was + 100 for a week or so. On top of that one of them got snaped in half by my girlfriend. But I taped it back together now that one has bigger buds than the rest. But I've learnt a lot on this grow( like don't piss ur girlfriend off when you have plants in the house) and I've already got 6 more little autos ready to go. You tube has been a life saver for me, what I don't know someone on there dose.

Here's an update of what's going down

Got my pots and coco. The pots are 5gal garden mate fabric pots. Seem to be really high quality and a lot cheaper that the competitor. Coco was rinsed with tap water until runoff was mostly clear and runoff PPM is at 99 which is where my tap water sits. Ph is around 6.6-6.7. Two dark devil seeds were germinated via paper towel method and popped shells in under 24hrs. They are now planted straight in coco around 1-2" deep. Hopefully will see them break ground within a day or so. Temps in the temp are 77-81. Any suggestions are welcome guys

Ok here we are again. Both beans cracked on Sunday in their paper towels.
3 days later and we have new baby girls!
Dark Devil 1 and 2
Anyone got any ideas for names?

Watered the girls this morning.
1.25 Cal/Mag
.5 Roots Excelurator
Bubbled tap water at PH 6.3, PPM 220
Gave approximately 100ml in a 2-3 inch circle around stems.
Light is up at probably 35-40 inches, not seeing any stretching at all from yesterday.
Temp is 77 with 65% RH
Trying to decide what light cycle I want to go with. So far it has been on 24/0 with the Mars 900 set to Veg. I'm thinking I might go 21/3 for the grow with the Mars set on Veg/Bloom the whole way since it's an auto. An suggestions?
Will keep the updates coming.

Here's some pics

Checked in on the girls this morning and they are looking good.
After doing some more reading on Coco it looks like people are adding notes straight from seed due to the Coco not having any.
I was afraid to add notes while they were too small for fear of burning them but I decided to go with it this morning.
Fed
Cocos A+B 1.25 ml each
Roots Excelurator .625
Cal/Mag .125
Tap water bubbled for 24 hrs
PH at 6.3
PPM at 257
Gave each girl a half gallon of water

After feeding and taking a closer look their second set of leaves appear very light green. I don't know if this is a result of not having enough nutrients for the first 3 days, or if it's just because they are still so small. I guess we will wait and see what happens, and hopefully this mornings feeding will clear up any deficiency.

I know still not much to look at but here's a few more photos anyways.
