Hey all! I am doing my first grow and could use some advice and suggestions from you guys/gals!
Here is what i have so far:
grow space- 4'x2'x6' grow tent
method/system- 2 DWC 5 gallon res. (each plants gets is own 5 gal res)
Lights- 2 Nova 300 Watt led system
strains- white widow, blackberry kush (feminized from dutch passion)

I wanted to stay with some indicas to keep it short since i have limited height.

Is the Nova 300 watt LED a good choice per plant? (looking for nice yields)
What nutes do you guys recommend?
Looking for a nice air pump to supply plenty of air to both plants. looking for a quiet air pump! budget isnt really limited, just the space haha.

Thanks all!

I haven't used those lights, but it should be ok. I usually like to give each plant about 500w during blooming, though. 300 for veg is more than ideal. [emoji106] [emoji2]

For your next grow, due to space issues, try scrogging a single plant, or train it in any way, so that the one plant covers the whole space. Short and bushy is what you're looking for. Does it have to be auto?

I currently have an incredible photo girl going, she's a Satori by Mandala Seeds.

This is the craziest bud I've ever seen! Don't think I have a shot of the whole plant, though.

As far as pumps, I'd suggest one of these, whichever you prefer, although the more expensive one will give you more air power, but also watch out for heat. Some pumps run pretty hot and can affect your plants negatively.

Use the larger stones that will give more air, like this. And you can place more than one per bucket.

I also recommend getting Hydrogard. All of Botanicare's line is nice.

And I love Earth Juice supplements for blooming.
