Grow Mediums Preparing for first indoor tent grow

[jackMgood]

I have ordered a 48 by 48 by 78 tent and have all accessories coming in the next week or so. I will be using a xlenvce 1200W light with a true power draw of 235 Watts. I plan to grow some sweet seeds honey Peach CBD and some of their sweet skunk variety. I plan to grow two of each, thinking of using 20 to 25 gallon airpots, or grow bags. The biggest question is with this being my first in order to grow and trying to keep things simple what would be the best way for me to grow these plants? Any help or advice is appreciated thank you!

I really liked that strain when It was in my rotation. Unfortunately the last three seed attempts did not make it. Frustrating. Hopefully it goes more smoothly for you.

First grow, keep it simple. A Quality soil, and a basic nute regiment. Learn how the plant grows and what your looking at before cranking up to grow monsters. I use 3 gallon indoor, 10 gallon outdoor for autos.

Good advice guys, looking at smart pots now. Is 4 plants in that size tent too much..?

My previous tent was a 4x4 and I grew four plants. With four plants, you will have a little space between them. And I like that. I used 5 gallon smart pots, 3 gallon smart pots and 3 gallon airpots.

Update: All gear is here now so I have made a batch of soil with organic peat moss 40%, perlite 1/8 20% and 3/16 20%, organic earthworm castings 16%, and a kis organics nute pack to top it off 4%. Mixed it well today on a 12x8 tarp, watered to field capacity. Should be ready in about 2 weeks from what I understand. I have elected to go with (2) 2 gal grow bags of honey peach cbd, (2) 4 gal grow bags of sweet seeds sweet skunk, (2) 4 gal grow bags of sweet seeds sweet cheese. I'm psyched! :smoking:

I hope you have better luck with that strain than I have. I've grown two and 4 or 5 seeds crapped out. I really like the strain, but am gun shy now.
