Hello all, I've made a comments here and I'm starting my Garden. I have 10 Big Bud's germinating in my home made grow box. It's in my Garage, I have a 5000 BTU A/C in it, I have a Prime water chiller to keeps temps in check. I'm using a future garden Autopot Smart valve system. I'll post pics as they grow. Any advice is taken into consideration, this climate makes it harder and I need all the help I can get.

I have 600W MH/HPS system with a top mounted vent, I have that connected to 4" Flex with a 4" inline fan. I also plan to use a Prime water chiller to bring the solution temp down.

Aug 14 Basically I’m not happy maybe one plant PH 5.5 225 PPM, I have 10 Bubble Gum germinating this is a do over. I could have fucked up with the PH my Hanna Phep 4 is giving nutty readings and won’t calibrate. I’m switching to my backup Milwaukee.
Aug 16 – 9 bubble gum germinated within 48 hours, I planted seedlings into small plastic cups with holes in the bottom filled with Perlite & Coco. Plants reside in grow box using florescent grow lights temp 73.
Aug 17 turned on the 600W MH, temp went up to 90 lights are about 2 feet above seedlings, I move them up a bit hand watering 4 or 5 times a day.
Aug 18 my temp in the box came down to 80F and I have a few nice seedlings.
Aug 23 transplanted to 10 Autopots, started water cooler and air pumps. I'm concerned about the amount of water in the pots, I think it's way to much.



ANY ADVICE IS APPREACIATED - I NEED ALL THJE HELP I CAN GET.

pigs r up here too in jacksonville we have jso, Neptune beach pd, Jacksonville beach pd, atlantic beach pd, st johns pd, orange park pd and prob a couple I missed. The beach cops are the worst cause they have nothing better to do than set up speed traps and bust up parties and they think their shit don't stink. Jso (jacksonville sherrifs office) are prob the most leniate mainly cause they have more important shit to do.
