First Grow

[Italiano715]

I am getting a 400 MH/HPS Super Wing 1 light :P.
I ordered strand violator kush(femanized) and i got a bunch of other seeds that were just free.

I would love to see a violator kush grow as I myself almost ordered them, but then decided to get something cheaper as I didn't want to spend all that money and get nothing! :wtf:

I got femanized and i will make a grow log. Originally i was going to get White Russian cause i wanted top of the line bud. And it said 22%thc likely to be one of the strongest or the strongest bud. Well i found violator kush cheaper same thc % and got femanized with extra seeds so :P.
Anyways i will make a grow log when i get everything hopefully within this week i ordered lights, nuts, rooting solut, etc online.
For now though i have a big osiclating fan for bottom part of closet and a top mini like 9 inch i think fan. Is this decent ventilation for now? If i feel it is too, hot i will get another fan.

It should be good enough to keep everything circulating. No really way to tell if it will suffice till you got the grow room set up. When you do get ready to start, do a dry run with just the lights on a couple of days and look at the temperature throughout the day for those two days. The dry run will save you from starting and not being able to control the heat issues first. Temperature is VERY important in my opinion throughout the grow. You want to stay in a range of 75-78 if possible. Anything hotter than that usually slows growth. Plus you said you are getting a 400W HPS/MH so that part will be essential before starting. If it is too hot, maybe you should look into cool tubes or a portable ac unit.

Yeah, i am putting a thermostat in it, but as for now if those fans arent enough i may drill a few holes in walls, and get another fan. Personally, I do not think it will get too hot, thanks for advice m8 bout dry run :rastasmoke:

I just got a 400 watt fluorescent for now. After 1st harvest sell a little then ill get the light(it was almost 200$)

[flashbandit]

I got nuts too, perlite also. bloom, hydroguard, cal-mag, clonex solut

Quick, question. Why is it that my friend has been growing for like 6-7months on his widow plant but he only has 1 light he says 400 watt but he has no nutes.
Also any other tips/instructions(what to do and not to) for growin. I ordered everything now just waiting...
Also how many weeks into vegitation stage do i change into flowering?

[Italiano715]

I don't understand the first question you asked about the light. Re-wording maybe?

Also how many weeks into vegitation stage do i change into flowering?

Wait at LEAST a month, but you can go longer up to years.....It's all on your really. Also, depending on your grow space you want to make sure that you are going to have the room for your plants as to when you get to flowering they are going to stretch and double to triple in size. So KEEP THAT IN MIND

[flashbandit]

Like how many weeks is the vegitation process, and the flowering is about 60 days or w.e for this plant i can recheck.

Another thing.
My mother plant wants it gets big enough to make another 5-6 clones will it affect the light schedule on both if mother plant is ahead?
