For your lighting i'd def go to 24/0 photoperiod, unless you have any heat issues

Idk my temperature actually rose when i added my fan. It isn't showing up on the thermometer, so it must be over 84F, but i doubt that. Maybe it just wont let it get a correct reading. The only thing though, is in the dark the light can be seen coming out of the box.

Are you using a passive (just a hole for air to pass through) or active (fan pulling in air) i had to change my pc fan setup not too long ago cuz i had the same intake as exhaust and most recommend 2:! cfm's in a cab

I think passive, I'm not sure what you mean by active.

This would be active if I'm not mistaken


Passive would be it just sitting in box blowing air around?

Yeah it is passive. The box is closed most of the day except for checking up and watering.

I'll put pick up tomorrow, upgraded it alot. Moved the lights closer, set the fan, and added foil.

Dont add foil go to walmart and go to the sporting section or camping section and get some emergency blankets and put that up. If not get some car window reflectors and put it up they reflect pretty good. The foil will create hotspots.

The foil is completely flat. I'll buy the blankets when I upgrade to my new box.

I feel like the MG soil might be burning your seedlings with the nutes that come prepacked inside. All they really need is water right now.

either way, good luck bro! I'm growing my first seedlings as well right now in some coco and its goin pretty well. check out my journal if u get a chance

I have two in MG right now, as long as you don't over water the nutes in the soil shouldn't treat them to bad from what I hear..my first time sprouting with it.

I water alot more than most people, but it very low amount each time. A few mL around the base.
