this is my first grow and wanted to find out what some of you more experienced growers thought.
there are 2 x white widow and 2 x white rhino grown from fem seeds.
growing in DR80, Wilma 4 pot hydroponics system with clay pebbles, 450watt MH/HPS lighting system, rhino pro fan and carbon filter, up right fan for max air flow to all the plant when growing, ionic nutrients (grow, boost, bloom), PH level is kept to 5.8-6.0 and EC'S are kept at constant levels for stage of growth. they are 2 weeks old from first set of leaves and nutrients being used.
gunna be flushing every 7 days with distilled water that i have made PH 5.8.
temps are good as i have the lights on late evening though to 1pm (18/6) as to keep them that little bit cooler, norm about 28-30. humidity goes from 40% lights on to 70% lights off.
is there anything wrong with this set up and am i missing anything.
i check PH and EC twice a day, once in the morning and once when the lights turn on in the evening.

Thanks for any replies in advanced, negative or positive. :thumbsup:

Already looking good bro, will be keeping an eye open to see how you go. Just coming to the end of mine (AK47) & ready to jump straight into the next grow ready for christmas. I am always here to help if needed. I love hydro :)

Looking very good. Someones done their homework. When you get into flower good you may need to bring down the humidity but you got plenty of time for that. Keep the pic's coming.

If your talking a DEhumidifier then it wouldn't be a bad idea. Other than that they look green and healthy, Very nice!! :thumbsup:
