Hi everyone,

I’m planning my first grow and thought I’d join the site to learn the basics before I get started.

Get ready for a million questions !

Hi @Lordhonkyconcord and welcome to AFN!

Do you plan to grow in soil or a hydro medium? What lights have you considered? How big a grow do you want?

Sorry for all the questions and you don't have to answer anytime soon! I just wanted to give you more to think about.

If your like me when I first joined and learned to grow, your mind is on overload. Don't sweat it! All will come with time young grasshopper. Btw, I'm somewhat sleep deprived right now and I tend to get silly as such times ... so just ignore anything that offends and do tag me in if/when you start a journal and I'll be glad to follow along!

Thanks for the reply,

You’re right ! My heads about to explode because I’m reading too much and trying to do everything at once.

I’ve got lights already, they’re Viparspectra r300 led’s and I plan to grow in soil.

I only plan on growing 1 plant at a time until I can figure out how to grow properly. I’ve built a cabinet that is 2x2x5 and will be using a 5 gallon fabric air pot.

I understand how to germinate - using the paper towel method. What I’m not sure about is how I should be watering.

Do I need to use ph up/down to get my water to 6.5 or can I leave the water in an open container overnight ?

Don’t apologise for the questions you’ve asked, I’ll let you off because I’ve propably just give you a headache with my questions

If you are using tap water, then you want to leave it out so it sheds chlorine etc. ph up/down after.

Watering future plants or the paper towel?

 

[Lordhonkyconcord]

I meant watering future plants. I’m going to be leaving it to sit for 24 hours and then use ph up/down to get it to 6.5

Welcome, lemon juice works for pH down too.
