1 growcraft x6 600watt
2 1000 cfm outtake fans
1 450 cfm intake
16 five gallon smart pots

Advanced nutrients ph perfect base & cal/mag

this should be a good one. I’ve got my room dialed in and tracked down some good strains. 5 zkittles og ( Barney’s farm) 5 glueberry og (Dutch passion) 3 bloody skunk (sweet seeds) 1 Larry lemon og
(Seedsman) 1 lemon (seedsman) 1 Northern light (seedsman)

top-dressed with worm castings
Presoaked with a mixture of R/O water,great white, sticky sweet, and blackstrap.(put seeds in damp paper towel after presoak)
48 hrs later.... 100% germination and in pots
Starting under the 4 Mars hydros and 1 generic. At 36 inches until week 3 then I’ll move 1/2 under the growcraft x6. Raise to 36 inches one more time. And let them grow to the lights.
Misting here and there until some leaves develop.
Will be using spring water with a natural ph of 6.8 for first 3 weeks. Then at end of week 3 I’ll switch to R/O water and ph perfect ph’d to 6.5. I’ll update when first true leaves show.

I’m sure you will do fine. Keep it simple and ask questions. I’ll tag along if you have a thread going.

Figured I’d start today off as day one. Will be easier to update on a Monday. So far I’ve just presoaked the soil with a myco/carbohydrate water. Popped beans in paper towel. Planted when taproots were 1/4 inch long. It’s been about a day and a half. And all have broke the surface. 2 are waiting to pop the shell. Just going to mist here and there until roots develop. so far so good.

Very nice, I'm waiting on all of my 8 to pop before i call it day 1 haha i'm at 5 of 8 (hope none are bad lol)

Edit: they all popped by lights on 6am

Been spraying down with spring water a few times a day.

Looking good. Lots of strong work there.

Just been misting with spring water. Pots feel a little light today. Might water tonight with a light mix of silica and cal/mag. All seem to be growing well. Two glueberry are small but the rest are consistent.

Went ahead and watered them with silica/cal mag. Really light mix. Ppms we’re just under 200 after I PhD the mix to 6.5. I split them up since the other 5x5 just got emptied.
