Hey all this is my first attempt ever to grow cannabis. follow along and please give advice where needed it will be much appreciated
below is a list of the equipment i will be using
1000w phytomax-2 LED by black dog
AC infinity 6 inch inline fan and carbon filter
2 oscillating fans
Humidifier
Dehumidifier
14000 btu LG portable AC which is wyed into the Infinity exhaust point
For growing medium I decided on coco loco by fox farm and used it right from the bag
For nutes I have organic dry nutrients by Gaia green which i havent applied yet
I will be growing auto flowers out of 3 gallon fabric pots.
i have a 5x5 gorilla grow tent that is in a 8x10 garage built room insulated with fiberglass batts and foam insulation on every wall including floor and ceiling its like a huge yeti cooler lol
Planted 16 seeds 5/9/2020 so its been about 2 days since.
the following strains
Super Lemon Haze Auto-3
Blue Dream' Auto-3
GDP Auto x Gumberry Auto-4
Dark Devil Auto -3
Green Crack Auto-3
I was originally having trouble keeping the humidity higher because this Light is putting off some heat and im having to run this inline alot so i added some little cups to help i hope maybe i need a better humidifier idk. hopefully they all pop tommorow im so anxious i feel like a kid.
thanks for checking in let me know any advice yall may have for me
Went for broke on the first grow it looks like!
One thing, look up VPD. 81F and 41RH is pretty hot and dry for seedlings. VPD will give a better target for temp/humidity of your space.
You already mentioned having an issue with getting humidity up, but it’ll at least give you an idea of where you should be at 27C.
maybe 3/8 inch if im trying to be precise. i just used my finger to make a small hole.Sorry about my last blank post. I hit Post by accident before typing anything. How far down did you put the seeds?
Ok, yeah that’s good. I know some people shove them down 2-3” for some reason. That never made sense to me. I had a shell that was taking forever to fall of once it breached thru the soil so I took a tweezers and tried to help it but the cotyledon broke off. I thought I had killed it but it grew back in a couple days. They’re pretty resilient even in the early days.maybe 3/8 inch if im trying to be precise. i just used my finger to make a small hole.
There are plenty of good vpd threads here on the farm charts too! Very helpfulok, looked into VPD i actually have a Thermal gun on the way for the leaf temp. Ill def read more into it and try and build a spreadsheet for this.
i know blackdog claims leaf temps will be 5-7 degrees lower then ambient temps and 85 degrees is ideal for the tent. ideally leaf temp should be 78-80 in this range.
in the meantime ill try and keep that humidity up thank you very much
Yes there was lol, I went straight to the search bar!There are plenty of good vpd threads here on the farm charts too! Very helpful
