Grow Room First Grow with Super Box

My experience with the carbon sheeting is that it really isn't effective enough even for a micro grow (IME). I'd be very surprised (and a little worried come flowering!) if it didn't have active charcoal granules in it.

I didn't really get an answer on what was wrong, just used that helpful link you supplied and just winging it. Going to hydro store today to snag a digital ph reader to make sure it's below 5.8 to be able to take in the magical I put in. Topped off res again but now my back plant is drooping, I'm assuming it's from bumping up the top feed to 3 hours from four. I reverted back to 3 hoping she starts perk up again.

Purchased a spray bottle today with good mist. Filled up full dose of magical in there and 5.5ph water. Sprayed three times, tomorrow I will induce full strength nutes. Bought some trellis too so going to build my Scrog today or tomorrow, and ordered a digital ph reader should be at the hydro store by next week.

Not a problem
She don't look too bad..... Might be a bit hot in there for her. I'd turn the fan on. Strengthens em up a bunch too, just don't have it blowing directly on her....... Just checked it out online and I def turn that fan on.
Try and keep your PH at 5.8 you can go up to 5.9 last half of flower or so. It'll fluctuate a bit while in the res but that's fine. Calmag is tricky in hydro cal likes a PH 5.8 and below and mag likes it 5.8 and higher so a little bit of fluctuation is actually beneficial.

Awesome man! Thank you! I'll make sure to raise the fan a bit and get it going! I've had the door open today to let them breathe a bit and get some humidity from my humidifier in there. I'm hoping this should be fine. Tomorrow I'll up nutes as well.

One big issue I am worried about is nutrients, I'll be using the technaflora recipe for success and I'm completely lost. I know you have to decreas the amount of nutes utilized due to being autos but idk what other adjustments to make to the recipe. I'm a total noob. But I have decided on Sweet Seeds Dark Devil strain from herbies.

nice selection just follow the feeding regime on the box or the bottles also make sure you get a nice root process.

Correct were using the same one.

Day 5 almost and no sprout yet, I'm going to begin germinating a side seed just in case with a paper towel method. I think I killed them but I'll leave them running just in case till week one is over who knows maybe they surprise me. Next time I'm going to invest in a humidity dome and heat mat.

thats the way to go i always use the paper towel method......

Yea. It helps. Though, when I was in early flowering when my plants started to smell. (no flowers yet). I was getting a ( hmmm, I think it smells a tad like cannabis in here). So, unless they are using some high quality carbon sheets. Then Im positive it wont be enough. For the money they charge. I would assume they are using a higher quality carbon sheet...Maybe even thicker?

The ones I smelt it through was a cheap 3 pack from walmart. So, thats my experience with it.


Getting back to the grow. Dont want to hi-jack thread. :Sharing One:

Also, sounds like the grow is going good.
I would try to help, but I dont know hardly anything when it comes to hydro. Everything I know, you probably already know yourself.

Had a drooping issue with back lady and once the fan has been running a but she's looking lovely. Tomorrow I'm switching nutes, been spraying the foliage with magical mix. Pic update tomorrow as well.
