nobodys got any suggestions?

looks like a good start. im getting ready to do the same thing indoor in my basement not a bad price on the tent.. i needed one to acomodate 24 ladys. the one you have will do it! being your first indoor grow clones might be your best bet. where did you get the seeds from?

Looks great man. But a 4x8 tent needs 2 600s to get full coverage. You could always add another down the line but 4x4 is the max for a 600. Other wise equipment and nutes look solid.

I hope you veg the photoperiods you have for the duration of the auto's life. Remember autos don't have a light flip to induce flowering.

Yeah the tent i got was from amazon....just search "Earth Worth Tent" and it should be the second one that comes up.... "Earth Worth 96"X48"X78"

and the seeds i got from attitude....GREAT company....i will be placing ALL of my orders there. Best time to place an order is during their monthly promotions....it only last for like 4 days a month...but they give you a bunch of good free seeds....i got all the HSO's for free with this order

Im gonna start vegging the photos at around week 3 of the autos....so by the time the autos are done...i can switch over to 12/12 and finish the photos

Great start, im going to keep my eye on this

Your plan sounds solid.

got everything setup and my seeds germin

how many ladys u got to go in this setup it looks good but dont put to many in it i have a room 80 square foot room with 9 ladys in it and a 1000 w light and all is good good luck with that moving your ladys if there in the ground but thay r in buckets u should good

3 autos to start....but when i hit week 5 im gonna throw 3 more phots in

Its going pretty good.....although im running a high preassure sodium light right now....didint realize....gonna be switching to metal halide in the morning





Got tons of free shit today at Crossroads Hydroponic's "open house" BBQ in New York


Originally I was gonna run all 3 plants each in 1 gallon (i think) pots with ffox and manure mix.....now im thinking for the autos that soil might be too strong....


Im gonna use this "freebie" soil i got today at crossroads in one of the pots....not sure which one though....anyone have any suggestions? 60, nl or cheese?







Also some other stuff i got for free....very small sizes....but you dont need alot of it anyway









Just mixed up 3 gallons of solution, 1200ml of seedling water, and 800ml of foliar spray mix


And heres a pic of the nutrient "warehouse" lol

Your Grow is very organized. Keep up the good work!
