Hey all!
So, after getting some help from the goof people on here, I am finally up and running with my grow :)

The setup is:

120x120x200 grow tent with double heat stop
1 X 600 WATT HPS LAMP
1 X 600 WATT LIGHT SHADE
1 X CARBON FILTER
1 X 4"TT100 FAN
4X 16L RHIZOPOTS
2x small clip on fans

I have used Coco and have mixed in with maybe 15/20% pebbles

I decided to go for the old school method and am currently germinating in the final pots (planted 2 days ago...)

I have not used any fertz etc yet but have advanced nutrients 3 part, coco feed, ph up and down, cal mag ....

Temp is currently staying at around 30c... Is this too high? Humidity is 46%

Hopefully all is going to go well :)

Thanks

I was advised to get a 6" extractor as 4" wouldnt cut it with temps.

rick Simpson! found a cure!
 
Good luck! I'll follow. :)

Regarding the temperature, it's a bit high. Ideally, it should keep it no higher than 25 degrees, preferably a little lower, around 23.

Oh, and try to bring humidity to around 65/70. You may need to get a small humidifier. I also spray my seedlings with fresh water a couple of times a day, they seem to like that.

Awww... looking great! All nice and happy. :)

I, personally, start with a low level, around low 400's, then start increasing slowly, as I see that they're starting to eat it. Once they've got a few sets of leaves, I keep them in the mid 800's range. I test ppm daily, more than I test Ph.

That said, many respectful growers do hold back on nutes early on. But I think by the second, third week, they get started feeding them.

Hey bro im thinking of doing auto on next one. So once the seeds have rooted did you put them straight into coco?

If you didn't pre charge your coco you may want to give 1/8 strength feed from the first watering ,most coco has no nutes in it and the seedlings will need some to help with root growth and such,you may also need to add extra cal-mag,swing by the coco thread for some great info..also,I wouldn't lower the light until you get the temps in check unless they start to stretch too much..peace bro
 
Howdy all!

Well the temperature has dropped slightly so looks good.
Have fed about 3ltr each plant yesterday and today with ppm about 400 (added a small bit of coco feed and calmag is that ok?) and ph at 5.8

Should I also be adding my liquid seaweed and advanced nutrients?

Now i have all three sprouting :)
