My First Hydro Grow...

[moneyman10k]

What up fellow tokers? This is my first grow in hydro, so it's going to be trial and error, but so far its going great! My light went tits and toes up so I'm forced into using a 25w full spec. the new HPS/MH 100w will be here mid week so... and now specs on the grow tent... its a 25cu ft. grow space (Has a mylar cover but not pictured, better for the pics) grow medium is pea gravel, ph is at 5.6, temp is about 76 at plant level, water temp is about 80deg.,pump light and fan stay on 27/7 right now, when i get the new light it will go to 18/6 and to deal with heat issues i saw a good idea on this sight to run a vent hose off my centeral heat/air system since i am growing in my basement... any advice will be taken into consideration and will be greatly appreciated, here are some pics to get you started will post more when the light gets here and i get the mylar tent back on. and i guess my bull dog wanted to make a cameo so you'll have to excuse him.

Thanks
JD

Soil is pretty easy for beginners, that how i started and once i go good at that i fugured i wanted a challange. what seems to be your trouble?
maybe i can help and if i can't there are plenty of ppl on here who can.

well he killed 3 opossums down there tonight so i'd say yes. and a correction on the wattage for my HPS/MH is 1000w, won it on ebay today! will be here mid week.

Moneyman, you are severly losing your seedlings to the loss of wattage.

Please do hurry with that HPS/MH lighting fixture to save them, or I fear they may die.

With some luck you could still pull er off.
