Hey mate. Happy to help. It can definitely be tricky. Dont get me wrong im still very much a learner but I'll help out where I can. My first suggestion would be find a decent coco to grow in, I found on earlier attempts soil stayed very heavy or something im not sure. Its about 40 bucks for the coco I use and I'd never go back to soil. Are you using a sf1000 or 2. Awesome budget lights. Our weather is wack. As a new grower its been super tuff to moderate the temperate and humidity, its been such a dry summer so im looking forward to the cooler month. Any questions shoot me a message and I'll do my best to help
Did you start in soil and found it tricky? Far out, I am just hearing such mixed reviews haha. What works for someone doesn't work for the next. Super frustrating to get a clear picture. Temp and humidity are the two biggest things I think I'll struggle with. What do you keep yours at through the phases? Cheers n beers.

I try and go off a simple vpd chart. Although most of the time its not in range because I haven't had the resources to acquire it. I found soil wasn't airy enough, I didn't know what nutrients were already in it so pre charging or trying to up nutes can be tricky. I haven't used a tds meter for ages where I really should be using one im not. People say coco is tricky but if you get a decent quality one you pretty much just have to keep your ph in a nice range and not over water and they are happy

I find starting in coco easy. Aslong as you don't over water. I precharge my coco with a light amount of go green the day before I plant my sead and then its about 100ml of straight water after that til she has some decent leaves on it.

this was the first white widow i grew. Cant remember how she weighed up or even much about it. Have my old journals there but all I know is I checked it religiously monitored it as much as possible but still no idea. I'm pretty sure it was a nice smoke but that's about all. I've learnt alot since then. From adding extra nutrients at the right time to changing lights then adding extra. im no way an expert grower but I'm definitely improving when you compare. Thanks to @MesaBoogie @Fitzy @Garage_Grower @Django_TO @blue @St. Tom @Jpkindbud @Django_TO @Vegasbear87 I think I've come along way considering the girl I have was pretty neglected through its veg cycle. Anyway here she is the little one

So I've chopped her down. Busted my fiskars so trying the wet hang this time.. dont know how much ill pull but the buds seamed very firm so hopefully won't lose much on the dry. Learnt alot from this one. Keen for my new tent and to run 2 plants at a time.

Last go at widows
So, this will be my last white widow grow. I've charged my coco cleaned my tent. Left my seads in water for approximately a day aswell as the go green in my coco. Ive used ph down and go green to charge my coco. Ive also order a tent that's twice the size of this one so decided to grow 2 at a time. Also ordered another sf1000 to make it 3 lights. Ive planted my seads and am ready. To have these girls take off. Ive set my lights at 16inches and put some humidity domes over the seads..

Christmas came early
So I checked my girls thismorning. 2 out of 2. Then I get a message. My extra light is being delivered today. Then an email, my tent is on the way. Well as of this afternoon I had the lot. 3 sf1000 lights. And one tent 120cm x 60 x 180. I tore it a little pulling it together because my busted elbow. But its here. Its up and their in. I also picked up some pot holders on wheels to get them off the ground. So here it all is. First time growing more then 1 girl. So keen for them to get going and take off.
