You can do fine without the moisture and pH meter. The trick is to select a good soil. I'm using Fox Farm Happy Frog, and it's a delight. You can blend in some powdered dolomite lime, but i didn't and it's good. cn

Shuffle, lmao nice avatar. I've read stupid amounts on growing but I figured another good way to grow was to just jump balls deep and get some mistakes out of the way. So I am growing 5 white widows atm. Lemme upload some pics I took of the set up. I was going to use fox farm ocean forest but the owner of the hydroponics place I showed up to told me hits a hot soil (alot of chemicles) and its way easy to burn the plants so I bought some roots organics formula 707. I am using a 600W HPS bulb in a 4ftx4x7ft grow tent. Let me get some pictures off my phone and upload them. But I am definately getting the moisture meter because I dont want to over/under water my plants

your light is to far away and plants are stretched, you need air circulation, exhuasting the heat provideing fresh air. and drainage is key

i clicked i have amazing virus protection. but they are very stretched light is practically at the top of the tent. if the light is to hot to hold you hands on then a good distance is about 6-10 inches.

yeah but for seedlings i had my light at 3 inches above so the would get girth, his look tremendously stretched. which could cause them to topple over god forbid

well besides the lighting, your going to need air circulation in the tent, your using soil dnt worry about ph just if your using tap let it sit over night first. i use bottle water so i dnt have to worry about ph problems. happy growing
