I started with 6 in a small cabinet before realizing how restrictive my space was.

At this point I swapped over from 4 CFLs to the 600W Viparspectra, thought I'd add in some cilantro, oregano, parsley and chives to the mix ;)

I started realizing that I messed up with the pot sizes and would have to unfortunately get rid of 3 of mine so I kept my 3 biggest/healthiest plants.

Now that I've switched on both Bloom and Veg lights the temps got too hot, 80+ so I added a can fan to the top thanks to the advice from @Toaster79 @G gnome @DemonTrich, temps sit around 75-77 lights on with about 35%-45% rH during the night I get around 65-70 temp with ~40% rH

I'll be trying to do weekly updates, just fed today with 5ml/gal of FloraGro/Bloom/Micro.
Let me know your thoughts, looking for any constructive criticism.

You should do some training with your second plant apical growth is not efficient to begin with much less with the height restrictions you have. Your first plant however "lucy" looks like you did a great job training it. Do you know if the seeds are feminized?

Triple tape all seams in the room. If moisture gets between the layers, its a good spot for mold and other nasty stuff.

Forgot to add, excellent choice for a room material. I use same stuff, if it' reflectix from HD. I bought the 5x100'.

Also a single and or a double layer of ONLY this material is not enough for total black-out. The reflectix material let's light thru. I have 2x 6ml black contractors plastic I wrapped my room with, then applied the reflectix 1x later.

Yup

That word "barely doesn't flu in my book.


I don't take chances. Have a light leak mod flower and your plants hermie. Lol
All that hrs work down the crapper. Even if you manage to pluck every nanner (good luck unless running a few plants only), its still not worth a hermie pollination risk. I have patients who depend on my grow for their medicine. I always have a back up plan for my people in case of emergency.

@DemonTrich well fortunately for me I only have these 3 and this first grow has been more of an experience/fun project for me. I plan on upgrading my equipment to maybe a tent or something better next.

There' an easy fix. Put another layer of reflectix, or cover the outside with something that will block the light. I've had a hermie run. Not fun, and pretty much scrap buds.
