mixed lighting

[Dutch Pimp]

...if you haven't popped the seeds yet....and have everything ready to go...

test the lights and fans in your grow area and check the temps (leave them on 48 hours straight)....a good, cheap battery thermometer (one that records high/low temps and humidity) can tell you if you can stay in the ideal range of 75-85 degree range and around 50% humidity. I place my thermometer between the top of the plants and the lights (but not in direct light)....enjoy....imp:...

one just sprouted through the soil today YAY!!!.....i have 5 im worried about though....I was a dumbass and planted them in ...questionable...soil. I bought it...but after going through it, there was rocks and shit in it. I hope they break through, then i'll replant in a nice soil like all my others.

just watched the video..
1. not bad music but could be better
2. the one real recommendation i can make is if you loose the tube lights you might be able to get the MH and HPS a little closer. with that much output on the HID's the tube light kind of gets pushed to the back.(not much results for that amout of space its taking up). thats just my two cents.
3. as for the blower: i dont really have experience with those or mounting them but i know you need airflow for your plants. you grow space looked good, you just need and get airflow in and out. are you willing to cut holes in your closet space doors?

i'm gonna end up building on an exstention to the space....that way i can cut the boards i build and not the walls....
closet doors are going...new extention partial box will connect to opening.
I just made a new light source....i need to buy materials for a hood, but...it's too late for that

from the pics, i think that was just perlite and vermiculite in your soil. it should be good. potting soil usually has some in it, and lots of people add it them selves.

[thoughtwriter]

...yes in the bigger pots there is perlite mixed.....I was refering to the little pots...i dunno if you can see them in the photos. There is no perlit mixed in that......but a little update...Most all have showed green, just waiting on three more to poke through...will have pics soon

i cant really tell, but i can see white things in there. good luck.

they are doing great...i rearranged my lights. I'm having some issues with pH....so I will read up on that....i would rather use something from home to fix it....i.e vinegar...or whatever is used. But i will read about it first
