Welcome! Best thing I could say to do is read through some grow journals here. There's a number of them. That'd give you a great idea on what is working for folks, and what's not working.

Looking forward to seeing how it all pans out for ya!

Just not to "over love" your plants. No overwatering, no overfertilizing, no over-lighting. Be easy on them. CFL's or other fluorescents from sprout until 3-4 nodes and then you can put them under HID lighting. Just don't over love them is the biggest thing.

There's someone either on here or another forum that did that. It worked out just fine for them.

what he said ^^

Thats the best tip. I could do the outdoor during the day thing but it'll quickly become a pain in the ass coz i'm lazy. Once ye get the 400, keep em under that. Make sure you are carefully checking for bugs while ye have to keep moving in and out.

I seen ye asking about nutes etc, don't feed them before they are 3 weeks old. if all ye can get is tomoto feed then it'll do, the seaweed extract is good in it too, but just do not overdo it. it is easily done and will stunt yer girls.


Don't bother with "potting up". once the main root hits the bottom of the pot you've limited the final size of the plant. if you plant directly into your final pot you usualy end up with a plant size decided by the genetics as long as you don't overfeed, overheat overwater or underwater.

If yer gonna be able to go in and out yer growroom often all through the grow, mix more perlite into yer soil and yer plants will dry out quicker allowing you to water almost everyday. as a beginer you will overwater through overloving.
