Live Stoner Chat Hello fellow growers

[Auto-newbie]

Just wanted to say hi to the community.
I joined yesterday and have been reading for about 24 hours strait lol. Love the site and the grow battles are a great idea.

I have grown a couple of normal plants about 10 years ago but Im a newbie to the autos and having to learn everything again.

I have a custom built cupboard about 4x3x7 with inlet/extractor fans and heater connected to an environmental control unit. A 400w hps with cool tube for grow and a 4 bulb flourensent for seedlings. 2 small fans in the room for air movement and I have an air pump to supply the air nets I'm using. Room sits steady about 25/26 degrees and humidity around 55/60%.!

The seeds I went for my first grow were auto crop circle from Cream of the crop. No particular reason (I was struggling to pick!)

I'm growing 6 plants each in 15L pots in soil with air nets at the bottom to give oxygen to the roots. I'm on day 31 from potting seeds using soil with no added nutes. I have been feeding them on advanced nutrients range from day 21 which I mix up in my water tank to let it all sit for at least 24 hours (using tap water!) I'm having a few issues I think with nutes but who doesn't on the first one!!

I smoke a lot and I'm growing just to try ease the financial burden and to hopefully get some great smoke.

Anyway, great site and I look forward to chatting to you all more.

Happy smoking

Glad to have you here and 60% humidity in flower might be a little much but I'm guessing as you said you have everything hooked up to an environment control you can lower that if needed. Welcome here hope you enjoy your time.

Thanks A-Train, I may have to take you up on that offer at some point. I found one of your grows last night whilst looking and noticed you were using the Advanced nutrients range. I posted a bit of a journal with a few pics yesterday but I did it under indoor growing and I think I should have put it in the newbie section, I'm learning!

Thanks Krypt247. I am trying to keep humidity below 50% but it's currently 92% humidity outside and I'm struggling to get it below 60% in my room even with my environment control. I think my next purchase will have to be a dehumidifier!

That would be great A train, think there will be more people in the same situation on the new grower academy

Good yes if your humidity is always that high then I'd say yes buy yourself a dehumidifier.

Not sure I have done this right, going to re-read the thread about posting links!!

I can't post a full diary yet as I'm on day 32 and have no previous pics but I will be sure to do a full diary in the future.
