I'm finally starting even though I've been throwing seeds in my backyard as a kid and my dad pulling them....
Im from vegas we have hard water low humidity and high temps
Ive started a bucket hydro system...im going to need to pick your brains if you could help me out i would appreciate it...i know i should have had my first grow in dirt but I guess I wanted to do things the hard way..i started with clones btw
I have (1) mh and (1) ups 1000w bulb with ballast and hood. A PPM/EC meter and a PH meter
I am emptying my sons room(12x10) he is leaving so please excuse the mess in my pics its not a sterile environment like some people have is there anything else i need to get now to start

What are your nutrients?

Hey 666
You are going to need to control your temperature , those lights are scorching hot , personally I love my hps / mh but they come at a cost and it's going to be your biggest issue out of the gate , I guess you might have gotten them free or at a great discount as so many people are turning to other light options....
So are the hoods enclosed with a glass shield ? Best if they are and you get the proper inline fan and suck the heat right out of the hood ....otherwise in Vegas , even in your ac home , it's gonna get hot
Also you might need an enclosed grow room , because any air exchange drawing air thru the room is going to pull hot from outside
Heat will destroy you in this beginners scenario , be careful

Looks like you need more soil for those also. What are you using?
And yes definitely a smaller light for seedlings.

Those need more than perlite at this point. And they look like they will be needing some nuts soon. Are you using ro water?
