Does anybody have any tips on growing this strain I can not find much information online about exactly how to grow this strain and I am new to growing.
Right now the seedling is 6 days old from sprouting.

Here is my setup:
Grow Tent: Mars Hydro 2.3 x 2.3 x 5.25
Mars Hydro TS1000 (150w from the wall)
Water: Distilled Water misting every other day after checking the soil moisture level with a soil meter
Medium: 20% FFOF , 20% Perlite, and 60% FF light warrior in a solo cup - then transplanting to a final 3Gal fabric pot with 60% FFOF and 40% Perlite
Nutrients: FF Trio and Cal-Mag

I've read that sativa dom plants are sensitive to nutes and require high light intensity so i am little concerned when i transplant it into the FFOF because since it has nutes in the soil i do not want the plant to get nute lockout.

I am aiming for a least an oz from the yield and high potency.

Any and all tips would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you and happy growing to all!

Good luck bro but why aiming so low on yield since everything's on point? Let's go for 120grams minimum bro! Keep us updated

I feel since i am a new grower i should expect a low return since i am just gaining experience growing so i rather aim for low and get high results then aim high and get low results. Everything is on point you are correct, but the seedling does have slight nutrient burn which i hope will not turn into nutrient lockout.0DFEE27E-E602-49C5-9060-2C1F57C2043F.jpeg7A8046E9-9D1B-49AD-999B-036F57926D6C.jpeg

I hope you're not feeding anything right now, right? Good call on starting with light soil mix and not directly FFOF. I've never grown in it but most problems I see here have to do with that soil being too hot for seedlings. Also, you should post pics of the seedlings so people can have an idea and help you. Would you mind telling us your on/off temps and humidity?

Lights are on 24hr schedule and will be all through veg but I’ve heard 18/6 is better the light doesn’t draw that much power so I am not too worried about electricity bill spike. Throughout the entire day and night it stays at a 75F and between 70-85% RH max. I have a humidifier to keep humidity stable and a small 350w space heater to control temp. For ventilation I am using passive air intake and the exhaust fan is the AC Infinity Cloudline T4 inline fan w/ 4in carbon filter. And no of course not I may be a new grower but I have done Aton of research and looked at multiple grow journals before starting my own grow. I won’t start feeding until 3-4 weeks after transplanting since I heard that how long FFOF soil nutes last for the plants until I have to start feeding them bottled nutes. Just misting distilled water every other day for now. I did post 2 pics of the seedling in my last post but if you didn’t see them here is 2 more :)DB47238E-0D68-4F5F-A6BC-1896438CCA3E.jpegFB61B794-EB30-4B23-B13D-58EEE781C1C8.jpegDB47238E-0D68-4F5F-A6BC-1896438CCA3E.jpegFB61B794-EB30-4B23-B13D-58EEE781C1C8.jpeg

What do you think of the tent? I’m thinking about getting one myself, but I’m torn between the cloudlab and Mars Hydro

So far so good. It is built well with very little if any light leaks, I haven’t used cloud labs since this my first grow. Very good reflective material so no loss of light for the plants. Zipper has not broke yet but I am very gentle with it and I don’t jerk it or unzip too fast since that is the part that will most likely wear down quick. Here’s a quick pic of my setup and plants inside the tent. They were around 32 days old when I took this pic. A8EB3CA6-DFEF-4ED7-85FA-D43047D01E61.jpeg
