Thats the farm man everyone here puts a lot of time helping others and a lot more than me. This place is really more of a community than a forum. Can't say that about any other forum. I try to help when i can, not always right but i'm still learning every day too.
I lowered light 12 inch still 37 inches from bucket but I got 15k with a 1ft drop of lights

Aqua always provides solid info! Any water question this cats got the answer! And I’ve been looking at forums for couple months none are as informative or friendly as the farm !

Ok so I swap out my res tomorrow and so a week after that add 5k to 7.5k lux a week to what end?
And I won't be getting my ventilation until Sunday so I moved the lights to the back half of my tent... got my ph where i only need a slight adjust I've liking 5.5 to 5 8 sometimes up to 6 but I like the range I put in.... i closed all ports in tent except 2 one on the bottom left side of the tent and my oscillating fan hooks to all my poles i got it to where that is pushing air out the top right side of tent.... so temps went down to 77 to 79 from 85 and 87...... my problem my RH is between 23% to 35% I know she will show me more love is I have all dialed..... would a cheap humidifier would or what do you think and how do you feel about Co2 in the tent out of one of the bags?

Alright Aquaman so just get a humidifiers that are cool and/ or warm mist? Should I get a dehumidifier or the ventilation will work that?

I do about 80k lux but I don't think you will quite get there get there if you get 40k you good. What light do you have?

CO2 bags are a gimmick and it's not worth running co2 unless you in a sealed room not good in a tent. Small humidifier would help but it won't be but a couple week and the plant will be causing the humidity to go up.

Ventilation will be good enough if your house has lower humidity.

If you get a humidifier I prefer the ultrasonic. Definitely not warn mist.

Ok so it's actually 185 true watts. Should be good for a 2x2 bit you know that unit is only supposed to run for 12 hrs. None the less keep it at 18/6
I will I've had it on 16/8 and it works well for her from what I'm seeing.... and it's going to be no more than 3 plants at a time once I'm totally dialed.... im definitely more confident I've been keeping a journal of all the tips in order a that book for me to always have on hand.... but the light is just for now to get started and all.... but name some good ones for me led full spec that's not going to rape me on electric... and all I can do is start saving..

I get half my stuff tomorrow night and the rest monday but for my inline fan I got a 6" ac infinity with the speed controller and also has the humidity and temp read out
