Hey everyone!

I'm new here, just wanted to drop a line and say hello. I'm doing my first auto grow, and it's the first grow of any MJ in about 3 years. I'm currently growing in a 4x2x5 tent, 250w HPS on 20/4. I'm at day 55 from seed and about 18 days into flowering.

The crop:
4 x White Widow from ILGM.com using the GH Flora lineup, with New Earth Organics Smart Tea and Mammoth P.

Things are a bit crowded, which I guess is an ok problem to have. One of my autos is slow on the auto and may ditch her soon to let the others breathe a bit. I'm growing in coco, keeping pH @ 5.7 - 6.5 in 3 gallon Smart Pots. Been testing runoff and pH is in check there too.

(can't rotate image)

RH:
Veg - 55% - 60%
Flower - Steady at 50%

Temp control is handled by a 6" in-line air mover and regulated by an Inkbird Dual-Stage Temp Controller. My exhaust activates at 74F and deactivates at 70F. Ambient temp goal is 73F.

Just built a space bucket so that I can attempt to veg there, then transition to the tent for flowering. This is to help reduce the turnaround time between harvests. My next grow will only be two plants in 2 gal Smart Pots so that they can open up a bit.

Cheers!

Forgot to include these shots from my grow journal for this strain.

If anyone is interested in a template for this, please let me know. I have formulas in place to calculate some helpful data.

It does a pretty good job. Setting the thresholds was a little counterintuitive, but I like that it also has an alarm if it gets too hot (user defined). I have mine set on 78 to give time to react if necessary.

If you figure out a good way to deal with the temperature probe, let me know. Right now, it's clipped to an extension cord that I manually adjust to the height of the girls.

Hey @Hypnosis welcome to AFN my man...nice set up, loving the space bucket idea for vegging. Also loving the spread sheets, this is something that I have been thinking about lately, getting bit more organized on what I'm doing... time to dust XL off then.

still some left on this my man

Best thing in my kit and for the price works so well... my room never drops below 24c lights on and 21c lights off. I'm thinking of getting there other controller as well for cooling down, if I can find the right kind of mini AC unit. Can be a little tricky on the programing but once knock its awesome.

Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. I saw something about tagging mods or something something.... @epenguin

Anyhow. @Slater I don't know if I can send files, but if you want the template for the spreadsheet, I will share with any interested parties. Right now it's in Google docs, but I can export to excel. The formulas may not translate, because ya know, Microsoft.
