new grower has questions
Hi there biz.
Well where shall i start lol.
Soil: Fox Farms is meant to be really good soil to use. Try and get some worm castings and some rusty iron naisl to mix in there with it and some perlite/vermeculite for drainage and to reduce risk of overwatering.
Pot size: Try and go for deeper rather than wider. Aim for around 3 gallon. Grow bags(heavy duty plastic bag pots) are meant to be really good and much cheper than pots aswell.
Light time: Its really up to you. 24/0 or 18/6. Both are really gd but stinky seems to swear by 24/0 and dats what im on too. Go to 12/12 for flowering stage.
DONT add any nutes until after 4 weeks vegging. For the vegging period find a fertilizer with high N value. And in flowering stage find a fert with high P and K value and low N value.
Im personally doing an all CFL grow as ive seen the results the things can give. But i would get a Large watt CFL such as 200watt Envirolite. And then get a nice wattage HPS for flowering.
Use mylar or Matt white paint for reflective properties. Im using tin foil as thats all my budget could stretch for lol. Bu i wouldnt advise it as it creates hot spots on the plants.
Take into account how much light leakage your gonna have you dont wanna get busted cos of a stupid thing youve missed out lol.
Also keep an eye on your temperatures and humidity. Cannabis grows optimum at 24 degrees centigrade so aim for that sort of temp.
If theres anythin ive missed out just say
Check out my grow log aswell its in my sig
Good luck pal!
