This is how I've got it hung

I just bought a HLG BlackBird and a 4x4 AC Infinity tent. This is my first time so I want to secure the light properly so that I can adjust the light highth using the rope rachets and hanging hardware that came with the light. I've got it hung but would like to see some pics of other HLG or...

Anyone use moldy bud for ice water hash?

Any of you tried different waters and seen a change in the plant or final product? Any harm in using distilled or spring water?

This is my second year growing and getting ready to try my hand at growing indoors in a tent. Anyone have a good video or tutorial on tent growing from start to finish? I'm sure there's plenty out there but a good one that you'd recommend. Maybe a tent grow for dummies.

I know photoperiod plants need light-off cycles to fruit. What about these autoflower?

So I'll be starting from Seed. If I use my BlackBird light and raise is up and turn it down they should germinate in the moist soil. Then bring the light down close to the plants once the pop?

You leave the lights on 24/7 while sprouting? These will be for autoflower plants

Whats everyone's take on starting their plants by seed when growing in a tent? Put them in the grow pot with soil and let it go? Or start it elsewhere and place it in the grow pot/soil at a certain point?

Our local trading post has a few of the Fox Farm soils and Platinum Growers mix Coast of Maine soils. Anyone use the COM soils?

Sure is!! HLG seems to have a good reputation and many members here spoke highly of them. I think this will do well for my 4x4 tent.

I decided to go with the BlackBird. It was more than I wanted to spend BUT I found it 25% cheaper than buying it straight from HLG. Might sound crazy but buy it off Amazon and HLG drop ships it. Actually it's a grow light retailer that is selling it on Amazon and HLG drop ships the lights. And...

I just ordered a 4x4 tent from AC Infinity. Once I get it set up I'll order a fan system once I figure out all I need. Looking at the Cloudline T6 it comes with a temp and humidity controller. Am I going wrong by considering this fan? How does everyone monitor CO2 in your tent?

Didn't see much posted here on the blackbird but got to be some members here using it. Seems like its ideal for a 4x4 tent. I'll be starting out with autos, may move up to photoperiods later. So whos got the blackbird??

did you buy it?
