Well what a 5 weeks as a new grower
i have gone through around 25 seeds trying to get my set up , nutes , germination and temps correct
For those of you that havn't seen my earlier posts
I am running a 2 x 2 x 4 foot grow cabnet
I have a 400w hps dual spectrum running 20/4 at the mo around 3 foot above pots
I have 2 x 17w computer fans 12 cm dia , 1 blowing straight on plants , 1 sucking hot air out the top
I have 1 x 5 gal pot and 2 x 3 gal pots
Pots are all now filled with CYCO coco and perlite mix , pre soked with rain water and 1/4 nutes , it is pre-buffered and ph stabilised to 5.5 - 6.5
nutes i use is Growrite Part A + B for vegetive growth , CYCO Dr Repair and CYCO Zyme
PH of rain water is 7.0 runoff is 6.4
I will get ph down for rain water in very near future
Plants are Crystal , Ice and i think White Widow
I do wait for pots to dry out b4 watering again
I give them around 1 ltr of water once a day as the coco dries out much quicker than soil
I feed them every second day
Well thats about it for the specs of the grow
Please let me get something out of this grow
will get a humidity meter soon as i get some coin
thanx everyone for the support of recent atempts to grow
hopefully this one is the bomb

You have a nice setup that looks like it will do the job. I would work on getting your PH stabilized to 6, without such a great variation. That is very important. I was wondering why you lost so many seeds. How did you germinate them? Anyway, all the best and good luck on your grow. Peace

They're looking top knotch, amigo! Well on their way. I've never grown with coco before. How is it compared to just straight soil and perlite?
Thanx saucimella for stopping by , I had no luck with potting / perlite mix in my recent grows , then changed to coco and they havnt looked back
It does dry out twice as quick as soil witch i think is a good thing , so its hard to overwater
