I put em in 1 gallon pails and decided to run with that size from start to finish. I used 50/50 black cinder and perlite.

Nice. I have a couple hempys going along with my normal plants to see how it goes in comparison. From what I’ve seen, when to water is a bit tricky at first, but am liking em. I’ll be along for the ride on this one. Nice lights you got there

Thanks! I’ve been feeding/watering every other day and it seems to work. I’m surprised how big they have gotten. It’s surprisingly easy now that I got a feel for it.

This is at 12 days in. Growing in a 4x4 area but because it’s Hawaii and humid I wanted them to have room to breathe and not perspire on each other.

As far as lighting goes it’s a mixed bag of lights. 1- electric sky 180w. 1- AUTOCOB 55w. 1- Rapid LED logic puck 100w. and 1- Optic1xl 100w. As the girls get further into flower I switch out the Optic1xl for a CMH 315 with a Grower’s Choice 3K R lamp.

Is that a conversion? What ballast you run that 315 off of?

I love growing outdoors but pest management becomes a full time job. I’m now in a shack that’s open on all sides so there’s great airflow but I don’t have to worry about mites and caterpillars. And the plants catch the sun for part of the day too.

Yep I got a cmh to mogul socket adapter off Amazon as well as a 315 cmh ballast. Both for under $150 if I remember.
