First indoor grow for an old outdoor grower (advice)
OK..........so I have been reading these posts and trying to learn as much as I can absorb. Let me start with what I will be using for my grow room. I have an area in my basement that I am in the process of sealing off. The area is 3 x 4 x 7. I will be building an elevated floor approx 2" to keep everything off of the cold concrete. I have already ordered my ballast (Galaxy Digital 600w) my Super Sun II Air cooled hood. I will be using a hortilux super HPS bulb. I have ordered a 6" can fan HO 440cfm that I plan on putting on a variable speed control to cool my lamp. I have a 4 in carbon filter that is rated for up to 250 cfm. I have not decided on an exhaust fan for it yet. I plan on growing in coco for my medium but I have not decided whether I want to use grow bags or 3 gallon plastic square pots yet. For my Nutes I will be using Super Tea Mix by the Guano Company for vegging and Budswell when I plan on switching my light cycle to flower. Vegan compost tea and adding approx 1 tlbs of black strap molasses per gallon of every feeding. I will be covering the sealed room with 2 mil Mylar and will be hand feeding every day until I get the hang of it to see how the plants respond. In the future I will definitely move to an automated hydro system. I will be hanging 2 mil Mylar around the grow space to maximize light reflectivity. I have just ordered some decent genetics to start out with. I ordered an AK48, ICE, Haze19 x Skunk 1, and Northern Lights. Am I missing anything? What would you recommend? I am a sponge looking to soak up all the knowledge that I possibly can. Thanks:rastasmoke:

I am very much in the same boat, and in my own personal and very limited expeirience, the Lord via nature takes care of lot more than I expected. Artificial light and soil is much more difficult than His blessed light, living soil, and rains of life. It seems to be a whole different concept. I watch this thred carfully for advice.
With His Love, we love, each other.
