Hey everyone. I have been lurking around similar sites for a while, always thinking one day I will grow me a plant. Then one night I said F it and let's just dive right in. I always have learned by doing anyways. So here I am starting my first grow, excited as all hell, and a little nervous/anxious that I will kill my plants, as I have never really grown anything before. I choose to start my grow journal here at AFN over similar sites, because y'all seem like some bad ass autoflower growing mofos. And everyone seems to be salivating from the mouth to help out newbies like me. I hope I can get some help on my journey, I promise to do my own research and formulate my own opinions on my grow, while at the same time take every suggestion/aid in and learn! Excited to start, so here we go!
Space: Small closet in my room. About 27 inches wide and 33 inches deep.
Light: Mastergrow 600 Watt LED
Medium: One 5 Gallon Smart Pot filled with 70/30
OF and Espoma Perlite & One 4 Gallon Pot filled with 70/30 Black and Gold Natural & Organic Potting soil and Black and Gold Perlite.
Nutrients: None yet, other than the nutes that were in soil. Plan on going
OF Grow big and Tiger Bloom. Have read that Grow big isn't necessarily needed, but if people think I should use it too I will, as I haven't ordered the nutes yet. I also plan on using CalMg as I know it is needed for LED grows.
Strain: Growing two DP Auto Durban Poisons (was trying to pick a strain to start with and read that these were relatively easy to grow/forgiving, had good yields, and don't stink too much in flower.
For odor control I plan on doing the DIY Odor control bucket with ONA.
I have been using Tap water Phd down to 6.5
Temps been running between 77 and 81
Been struggling with RH (about 25-35%) I did add a bowl with water and a towel attached to a close hanger to try and raise rh, but it hasn't done much. I know rh will rise as my plants grow, but I wish i could have it higher for the seedling stage.
Here is the closet set up.
