Just because this is your first or second grow doesn’t mean ya can’t grow like a pro!

Newbie here, I may not have yrs or multiple grows under my belt but I think I have a green thumb. research is key fellow newbies! Good luck, it’s wise to listen sometimes but there’s no better teacher than your plants! I’m a little hard headed but will at least take what Veterans say into consideration. I’ve had no help besides reading on the internet, I install lawn sprinklers for beds & grass for a living so that helps. F0759A35-EB39-4371-81DF-641D01240147.jpeg

I hear ya there. I'm still on my second grow and have some great plants.
 
IMHO all you have to do is stay meticulous, read and read some more my plants gets 3-5 hrs of my time daily. The first time I notice anything I’ll change res in a new york minute. I use Armor Si 1.5 ml, Cali magic 4.5 ml, fl micro 12 ml, 15 ml of flora gro, 3 ml of fl bloom, 7 ml rapid, 3 ml floralicious plus, Dia nectar 15 ml, Flora blend 15 ml. I’m flipping in a few weeks then switching to soil. That’s where I fear i’ll have problems . Hydro seems easier too me. I don’t fear flowering I spend 3-5 hrs daily watching, and studying my babies. A friend said go with soil there pulling according to him 11+ lbs off like 9 1000watt hps. His exact words were: My plants are as big as Shaq! Says my plants aren’t a good size considering there about 8 wks old. I struggled with humidity, I didn’t want to buy a commercial humidifier just yet. Winter humidity is brutal. I did buy a reptile fogger it works great next Veg i’m going to use two with a thermostat to control everything better.
 
4x4 tent for veg & a 5x9 room with a ceiling height of around 65” I think after this grow i’ll target 3lbs but will be happy with three. Also going to buy another 1000 watt’er for the flowering since the room is 5x9, well actually 2 because I want one in the tent. I have a 400 watt but imo it’s not enough for what I want to accomplish

Omg you have a roasting in the post, you can't use all that crap without issues, I'll gladly stand corrected though let's see what happens.
That list of additives is typically used by new growers, I'm predicting burnt tf plants coming soon.

Rather than soil you might think about a soilless mix like the Promix HP I've been using for ages. I just feed my usual AN 3-part nutes but add stuff to the mix like DynoMyco, crab/lobster shell, Insect Frass and sometimes earth worm casting with sheep and steer manures for that 'organic taste'.

Could just be me tho. I never had a lot of good results playing in the dirt. :)

:peace:

It’s part of gh expert program they say use all of these so far no issues since using & actually in flowering i’ll have to take a few out & replace them with other’s during certain phases of flowering will see what’s going to happen.
