Hello Everyone this is my first grow

here is my setup

Grow Area: In Small closest (L: 62cm/25Inch W: 30cm/12inch H: 62cm/25inch) surrounded by reflective materials similar to the one that is used on the car front windshield

Strain: started from an unknown strain seed - Hopefully she will be a LADY.

Age: I would say 20 days since the sprouted seed has been planted into soil

Light: 2x45Watt 6500K CFL + 2x36Watt 6400K automotive LED with high lux in the area near the plant + 4x full spectrum 12(actual) Watt leds

Light Cycle: 16/8

Ventilation: 2 main 12VDC Fan 0.68A for intake and exhaust plus 2x0.68A Fan under the 2 cfl to push the hot air up, and 4 small fans pushing air on the 4 led panels

Temp around 30C and humidity maybe 70% (every time i forget to take notes of it, now again its dark cycle)

Soil: coco coir mixed with perlite (I would say 80:20 ratio) in 3 Gallon bucket (I think)

Feeding: DIY Compost tea air bubbled for a 6 days and its made of 1 tbsp. RED SEAL Blackstrap Molasses + 100Gram of Earthworm Castings + 5 tbsp. (full like a pyramid) of Asian seabird guano in one Gallon distilled water (ppm under 100 PH 7.xx) I balanced the PH with 2~3 drops of White vinegar (not sure if this is right, as I have heard that vinegar would kill the micro-live in the Compost tea)

Feeding time: I would say once every 5~6 days depends on when the 1st inch on coco gets dry)

Progress: very SLOW but I only moved her into the 3 Gallon bucket about 6 days ago, right now she is starting to grow her 2nd set of pointy leaf.

Finally the whole setup photos
