Hello,
I just recently started my first grow.
I have only been slightly helping others until now.
I have 6 1000ws in a 13x12 room.
I started out with 47 plants all various strains I picked up from clubs.

8 of them have died which was all the Romulan strain I had. I am still unsure of the problem, I tried more nutes, less nutes, flushing, lighting, ph, heat, everything and they wouldn't get better. Anyway the rest of the plants look like they are doing good I just started week 3 of flower and I will post some pictures. At this point I just want to keep an updated log of everything that happens day to day.

I am using house and garden supplement nutrients, With Canna Coco A/B in a coco based soil medium.
Temp stays around 76-79 humidity around 40%. Watering with a PH of 5.7-6.0

Whoa! You have never grown before and you started that huge. With many different strains. I am impressed but I think I know why you are failing. You just have to much on your plate. I'd really suggest turning off all but 1 light. Make that a T5 and just grow 2 to 4 plants at first and get to understand them. They take some watching to figure out what they are asking for.

Then build up. I'm about a year and a half into growing and I'm just now growing more than 2 strains and a few plants. I still only run 3 rooms (starter, veg, flower) and have just turned my flower perpetual. I just felt up to doing more than a few strains at once. I tend to be a relatively quick learner but this isn't easy to learn.

Oh and you introduced ALL kinds of unknown when you brought plants in from multiple sources. I run a completely closed grow room as a newbie because I don't have the chops to diagnose, pests, mildew and nutritional deficiencies and I lost an entire pan of Bubba's to thrips. So really I'd suggest slowing down just a tad then ramping up.

Oh and to help with the problems we need images. We can't tell you anything without good images and more information. So here's what we need to be of maximum help.

(1) Give images under metal halide or incandescent (no hps).
(2) Give complete synopsis in one post telling us all the details.
(a) substrate
(b) nutrients
(c) additives
(d) age
(e) strain
(f) environment (specifics on temperature swings, images of habitat, ducting, humdity, etc...)
(g) miscellaneous

shiiiiiiittttttt,,,, 47 first time grow, BAMF if ya got it, flaunt it fo sho!!

I agree starting with a few is a good way to perfect ya techs but shit man 47ish?!?!? you will learn sooooo much!!! just dont get too bake all day and never document what you do to what plants. all those strains and plant will be a load of great info but if you dont remember what you did to which strain, then its pretty counter productive.


I started first grow when I was a dumb ass and had 2 plants, learned a lot.
2nd grow was 4 and upgraded to 600 watts, learned more.
Third I gots 8 flowerin 7 veggin and my mind is literally being mind fucked with this knowledge base I have accumulated, and I still dont know shit haha

anyway back to your goodies, I would not get too upsett over losing a few... those numbers give failure a higher chance to be noticed ha..
I wanna see this set up asap. get the girls all dolled up and sexy and have a explicit photo shoot!!! we shall wait

Haha yeah it was a big start, but I felt confident after doing research.
I have all of the photos but I am unable to figure out how to upload them.

Thanks !! :)
