Day 42. The right plant seems to be ok but doesn’t seem as healthy or as far along as the left plant. Not sure why they have had the same treatment maybe it’s cause they are under different lights.

Day 43. Still looking good. Wish the right plant would catch up or start looking better. They both looks good the left plant is way further and fuller. I’m pretty sure it’s the lights that are above them I have two different ones.

No a 600w and a 300w both cheap 40 dollar lights and it’s only two plants. It’s a 2 foot by 4 foot tent. I run the gerneral hydroponics 3 part series with cal mag and hydroguard

Sweet I have all those nutes well gh full line up actually and lots of hydroguard on hand always. Same tent also.

Day 44. Left plant is just chugging away and all kinds of flowering. Right plant has very little white hairs and no real flowering yet. Can’t wait to see them both flower.

Looking good man. Going to be lots of trimming there.

What's up @Learninggrower? I just caught up on your thread; very active. I have 3 threads going right now, and this one has more pages than all of mine combined! I have to do better. Nice setup you're running no matter the size...very clean looking. I do understand wanting more space though. Most of us indoor guys do. I have done dwc a few times, and it is a BEAST! I just don't have the patience to be as meticulous with my days and with measuring nutes all the time (amended coco guy), but the yields are AMAZING!!! I got 12oz from a 5g bucket. The breeder was Female Seeds, and it was their "Grapefruit" strain. The smoke was FIRE!!!

As far as the 2 plants looking different, unless you are growing clones, they can act completely different. Even with solid genetics, you will get your random variation. Also, if the leds are the $40-$50 ones from China, then the 600w is more like 150w-220w actual power draw, and the 300w is more like 60w-120w actual power if you are lucky. That is roughly somewhere between 200-300w total of led. Still a decent amount of light for that small space. You are doing a great job with what you have, brother. Not bad at all for three grows in, and battling a heat issue.


I see that you asked about cheap options for grow tents and @jingo suggested panda film. I have built all 3 of my cabs from 2" x 2" x 8' boards and panda film. I have a 3x3x7, 4x4x7 and a 5x4x7 cabinet. The 4x4 was the most recent. The panda film was $23, the wood was about $20, the screws were $7 and the Gorilla Tape was $8. Total roughly $60 for a really nice size cab. I bought the material and built it all in 3-4 hours the same day.

This is the cab. (1x 600w hps and 2x 130w actual power draw led lights. (860w total)

And these are (2x) " 2Fast 2Vast" by Heavyweight Seeds that I pulled out of it a while ago.

The cabinets are super easy to build, and they work great! The average cheap 4x4 tent on ebay is $110, and a Gorilla brand 4x4 can run $400+. They look great, but what can it do that my panda film can't? :smoking:

Good luck to you, bro. I will be riding along from here on in.

Thanks for the follow and yea I knew the cheap lights put out less then they say. I’ve found a bunch of cheap tents on eBay recently just waiting tell I buy my new house to have more room and a better set up. Your set up and plants look awesome. Yea the heat in a attic is hard to fight but lucky I have a ac unit up there now. My first two grows turned out horrible lol but this ones looking promising. As for the nuits I buy like 10 to 15 gallon jugs of distilled water and pre mix all my nuits for two weeks so all I do is add and then ph after. I wanna start growing in soil cause it’s quieter but so far I find dwc really easy. Feel free to swing by and check out my grow anytime. I try to post at least once a day with pictures and love the feedback. Every grow I plan on posting a day to day journal it gives me something to do and love the help I get if I need it. your guys can see where I messed up and tell me how to correct it lmao
