Lighting I finally did it guys and i need your help!

[Blalack55]

I finally purchased my cob light guys I have 12 citizen clu048 1216 3500k 90ri running on 2 MW-HLG320H-1400B drivers, from what I have read this is a decent setup. I just moved into my new place with a spare 6×6 room with a 2×6 closet and I know it's not enough light to fill it for now but this will be my first grow and I want to put 8 plants under those lights in 7g smartpots grown in coco/pl mix. Is there anyone willing to ride out this first grow with me like I have questions whether they are stupid or not I want to try and make my first grow a little successful like I know I'm not going to bring out the full potential of the yield and harvest but it is my first so I know I probably will mess up. Now as far as seeds in waiting for my order from seedsman to come and it should be any day now lol, but I have 3 black haze,3bbk from dutch passion,3 BlackBerry fastbuds,3 amnesia XXL and the 8 free Halloween promo seeds that just my auto seeds I also have 11 Sunset Sherbet,10 Gelato,3 Original Grape48 Photo seeds. So will anyone be willing to help me if when needed? Please and its very much appreciated. A little pic of my seeds I have

Thanks a lot! So far everyone has been pretty cool even with a couple bad noob questions lol but if you don't ask you don't learn, but at first I want to start with autos and when I'm running out of seeds I'll throw some photo seeds and hopefully I'll have better hands on experience and try to pheno select and hopefully find a keeper or 2 and ride out with it for a little while then switch strains

That seems perfect! It gives me room to move around in and rotate too, so is 8 plants too much for that plus the plants will be in the 6×6 area just put more onto one side of the room? And from what I read just the basic GH trio and calmag should be goon enough until I learn more about growing and feeding? By the way did you buy or make that voltage meter/junction box? Please let me know

Looks like your off to a great start and lots of great members here to get help from. Just like some have said start a new grow journal and if you need quicker help you can always ask questions in the LiveStoner thread.

12 will be plenty for 12 Sq ft! And if you can get eight ready to harvest girls in there... then by all means!

Hey @Blalack55
I would make them into a 4 x 4 grid with 1ft spacing. AT 1400ma thay should do a 5 x 5 area and maybe push it to the full 6x6 foot print.
Have you been watching the growmua5 vids on youtube ?
Yes I did build the box from scratch, part all from ebay
This is the lay out you want, its at 1050ma so does the 4x4 a dream, yours being at 1400ma shoud give you that bit better foot print.

I kind of described it wrong I have a spare 6×6 room for growing with a 6×2 closet that I can use for mothers/clones
