New Grower First auto flower to start in a few weeks!

[DJ High]

Hi all! I'm new to growing but am not new to the process as I have friends who grow and I have learned much from them. But my buddies have never done autos so I am planning on making this forum my home before and during and after my first grow.

I intend to keep you all up-to-date with pics and questions and such so I don't stray too far from where I should be lol. So here is what my plans are and my gear.

• 2x4x5 tent
• 800 watt cob led (actual consumption 210w)
• Vivosun inline fan and carbon filter (200 cfm)
• Generic 3 speed fan controller
• Vivosun 3 gallon fabric pots X 5
• Electronic TDS & PH meter (unbranded)
• Growing in coco with 30% pearlite
• Nutes will be GH Grow, Bloom & Micro and Calcimag OR Sensi Bloom A&B, Carboload and Overdrive (as per TaNg) - still deciding
• 2 x 8" Clamp fans
  
• Cold Humidifier (if required)

I have 8 seeds (LSD-25 from Fastbuds) will only be growing 2 plants to start. Our tap water here sits at about 6.2 all the time (lucky me ). I live in a humid region where humidity in the summer is around 60% and the outdoor temps are in the 80 to high 90s. Tent temperature is a steady 83 with lights on and a humidity between 38 - 43 (in empty tent with only lights and fans on). I plan on using LST on the plants starting early in the cycle.

So what are your ideas concerns and suggestions based on the above info to share?

Vivosun inline fan and carbon filter (200 cfm)

Since you are new, I just want to double check that the filter cfm is, at the very least, the same or the preferably higher cfm of the fan. Much luck with the grow.

Welcome to AFN and good luck with your grow!

The fan @ filter are a matching set... both rated at 200cfm.
