Indoor First indoor grow

[sergeant pepper]

So thought it would be good to try do a little journal here. Hopefully it may help others learn from my mistakes and perhaps help me to make a few less of them.
Apologies the first two weeks were not documented but here goes anyway.

Plants are
21 x fastbud2
2 x think differant
1 x sweet cheese

Grow room is 10'x8'
Lighting is four t5 units, 4' tubes.
Pots are 30l
Grow medium, Westland container compost

Light cycle, I was unable to figure if it was supposed to be 18 or 20 hours per day:no: so went with 19.

Feed is Dutch pro.

Temperature under the lights is usually between 27c and 29c

The three largest plants were planted on July the 8th and came through the soil around the 12 July.

The rest were planted on the 12 July and came through around the 16 July.

These pics were taken on the 29 July



The three largest plants have now been potted up into the bigger pots and these pics below were taken today.
Also I finally managed to get hold of some red tubes yesterday and put two into each unit.



Any thoughts,advice or howdy hi more than welcome.This is all pretty new to me so I have a lot to learn.

Looks like you're off to a great start! As far as light cycle goes, if they're autos, it shouldn't matter. I've heard of guys experimenting with all kinds of cycles, even 12/12, although I think that would reduce the yield. Like you, I went with a 19/6 cycle, and my Think Different seems to be doing fine. I might be wrong, but I've read that co2 supplementation helps the plants deal better with high temps, so you may wanna look into that. My temps are usually in the low to mid 80's, and my plant seems to be doing fine. I use a co2 Boost Bucket. The Dutch Pro nutes seem to have worked well with my plant, so I think you will be more than satisfied with them

Hey Sgt Pepper,

Good start, they still look nice and healthy..


Air circulation is important, especially if you are having temperature issues. You don't want to get into molds and frying your plants, so make sure you can get fresh air replacing the old stale air. You have extraction fans yes?


Hope to see you do well with these
