New Grower Searchin for the perfect grow (or just not stuff it up)

Howdy,
as promised some pics now that we have sprouts.
two look ok one looks like seed was wrong way round. one nowt above ground yet
temps around 23-5 degrees, humidity between 30 - 40%. Ive put wet towel in to increase humidity.

im generally nervous about getting this stage bang on.
 
Howdy,
That vpd things been at me, so..... I bought an humidifier. I have three hygrometers which were 50, 40 and 30% respectively. I have no idea which is accurate but I think they are all consistent. I have it blowing into intake. Rh only gone up by 3% after couple hours. Better than nowt though.
My temp stays wto
I’ve abandoned the samsquanch as it didn’t germ I went the tissue in dvd route and planted a west coast og yesterday.

I’ll post pics when they aren’t as rubbish as my last.

I raised ec to 1.3 today. 1.0 previously and thing seemed slow and the two serrated leaves on all looked a little pale
In hindsight should have increased more gradually, it’s been ten hours since feed and no obvious distress

Thanks
 
Well thier up and running so that’s good...Sorry I can’t help you out with the coco(I’m n soil) but someone will come along soon I’m sure and help you out!!!’
 
Actually get bigger yields in smaller pots in coco when treated like hydroponics rather than soil. Don't ever let it dry out. My current grow is in 2 gallon pots with straight coco.

Get an InkBird digital humidity controller for $36 from Amazon and run a humidifier/dehuey or exhaust fan combo and you'll have amazing control over VPD. Couple that with an IR thermometer for leaf surface temps and you'll be golden. I used both in my current grow to, what I hope, is great success.

Just @ me if you need any help with coco. Good luck

Thanks.
I would like to have temp and humidity stable and automatically controlled, but the expense means that won’t happen soon.
You’re right about the pots I’m afraid. First time in fabric pots. Research indicated 5 gallons but I can see it will mean mixing more notes and maybe other issues. I’m stuck with this now and I’m sure I can get decent results
 
Just keep the coco moist always to prevent salt build up.

Sorry i haven't kept up this diary but here is an update an request for help- with pics
The pineapple expressed didn't make it past the first couple weeks so i replaced with Mephisto green crack hoping its quickness would mean it finished close to others. I accidentally topped the sour crack at about three weeks. i was so pissed but took it as an experiment and it caught up and was my biggest plant That was an issue cos im using 1mx1mx2m tent and the three plants with the small green crack crowded it out. I only grow for personal and it was also just too much. i chopped it last week.

My LST must have improved cos my canopy is more uniform..

PLease look at the pics and advise re heat stress. Light has been outside of suggested range at 75 c and still curling. I have just gone to twice daily on the west coast og and stilton. i understand ther is an interplay between heat stress and moisture levels where leaf curl is concerned. Is it ok. should i be doing anything. Feed just up to 2ec today . Any other advise or comments appreciated

Closest to camera is west coast og, furthest is stilton special and small one is the green crack
thank you
