little update on the grow. set up the scrog today. typical amazon stuff, order 5x5 scrog and it was like 3x3 so i had to put on some extensions but should do the trick also my little box i put together for the seedlings and clones when i turn over the tent in a few weeks. i plan on letting the plant grow into it but sliding it up a few inches as well to maybe like 20 inches . please let me know if you have any advice since ive never done any indoor growing like this in the past.

Do you think you could run one of those through a rheostat For variable speed control? Sorry! Went back and looked! Looks like it comes with a variable, speed controller!

thats what sold me is the variable speed because sometimes the fans are too strong for the small seedlings and im trying to figure out a way to blow the wind off a wall and then hit the plant or something along those lines haha

just keeping track i ended up keeping in the flower tent
4 mint smash
4 modified haze
4 jokerz 31
all began as female clones

also been filling up the seedling box with a couple clones getting ready for the spring time in the northeast.
so far in the box i got :

3 mint smash fem clones
3 modified haze fem clones
4 jokerz 31 fem clones
1 pineapple express germinated from seed
2 lemon lava germinated from seed
4 pyschosis x white widow germ from seed
4 psychoberries x white widow germ from seed

little update. filling out, decided not to switch the lights for one more week so i can grow out the two lemon lava and pineapple express seedlings, take a couple cuttings and let them switch to flower with the other plants so i can sex them.

trying to be patient. one thing for sure is i love watching this stuff grow baby! nothing better!

come home from work every day so excited to look at my babies!

yes, it can be very intoxicating to just sit & look at them, I find myself doing it quite often.

am having a little trouble with this one plant, i dont know what it is with this one, the three other mint smash plants that get the same amount of food and everything seem to be just fine.

last feeding was
6.0 ph water
12 ml/ gallon fox farm grow big
4 ml per gallon cal mag

which is the same as they've got the last few times but not going to lie i definitely went a little heavy handed with the feeding heading into flower and could of bit myself in the ass but do you think its worth a flush or just keep an eye on it?

about 45 days in veg, not too bad. would like to cut that time down some, definitely have to start with better clones which is why i built the seedling box. the plants were super unhealthy when they got put in the tent. hopefully for the next run ill have an upgraded light and can really get it going. but all in all cant complain for some hand me down lights and a home made tent haha i see people on this forum every day that have thrown dumb money into set ups and struggle over and over just to start a few seedlings. just pouring money down the drain haha so im glad to learn this way and piece my things together and learn because at the end of the day i started this to immerse myself in something and learn.

Just because I think these things are looking sexy today haha did a little flush last night because I saw super high ppm in the run off. Even though I don’t really know what it means I hope it means there was just some build up from me letting the coco get too dry but we will see. They’re going strong though about five days since light change.

Update; ten (ish) days since the switch things going very well, I was just looking at the pics from a little over a month ago and these plants were looking scary haha but everything is looking a lot better since learning not to let the plants dry back all the way like soil. Ec of the runoff is leveling off now and it all makes sense, live and learn , just trying to get better every day. Big shoutout to you Fuckers on thc farmer that have helped me along the journey.

Been trying to dial in humidity since I have a few fans a six inch and ten inch but no controllers so they are either on or off. Got it now that the six inch can run with a little blockage over the intake and it hovers between 45 and 50 percent during the days and up to sixty at night.
