UK Newbies first shed grow critical Auto

INTRODUCTION: I've just started my first grow in an attempt to grow 2 Critical Autoflowers and hopefully harvest. My setup is in an outdoor shed and consists of: Strain- Critical + Auto Feminized Tent-60x60x1.4 Medium- Plant magic soil Pots- 11L Lighting- 125w CFL-blue for vegetation 200w CFL-red for flowering Side lights- 2x35w CFL Spiral Fan/Extraction-100mm systemair RVK sileo 100E2 Carbon Filter- 100mm Rhino hobby filter 300mm long Small clip on fan 100mm 2 speed Nuets- General Hydroponic Flora series. Floragro, Floramicro and Florabloom Growing in 11L pots in Plant Magic soil. Pot watered in first so not yet started watering. Day 5. Having looked in at the babies today I gave them a light spraying with water making sure I avoided getting any droplets on any of the leaves. Also added 2 more 20W CFLS to give them abit of company and to boost them a little. Will look in tomorrow to see if it's made any difference. Day 5. Early pm. Checked temps. Feeling RH has dropped a little today. Placed a wet towel in a bowl to try and raise it abit. Let's see what happens The conditions have been up and down the last few days but have now started to level out with adjustment of fan and introduction of some watering to help get the humidity up. Last look of the day so after trying a wet towel there has been a improvement in the RH and after adding a couple of smaller CFLs the babies are straighter and have got slightly taller. Let's see what tomorrow brings......happy days 😁

Well. I've made it into week 2 with my babies and so far so good. They don't seem to have run into any problems as yet. Or none I can see but only a newbie grower. Growth seems to coming along nicely and pots are starting to dry out now so started just a small watering of 100ml of plain water which has been stood for 24 hrs and had its ph adjusted to 6.1 the same as the initial pot watering before the seedlings went in. Temperatures seem to be running nicely at between 70 and 77. Nightly they have been slightly lower. Still running light cycle at 24hrs as I will continue throughout the Veg phase. Also have good air circulation running both small 4" clip fan at bottom of tent running continuously along with 4" inline extraction fan and carbon filter with variable controller in top of tent also running on a slightly higher than min speed continuously. All in all happy with progress😃 Added 300 ml of ph water everything else seems be coming along nicely. Ive made a better album of growth so far. Check it out please http://imgur.com/a/EKzTQ Day 14 Watered both plants each with 400ml of plain Ph 6.2 water. Everything else is coming along nicely, no signs of deficiencies. Lightwas also raisedd a couple of inches so hopefully will get abit of stretch and start growing some height. A few small redundant leaves taken of under the bottom of plants which had been touching the soil.

So......at the beginning of week 3 the girls are coming along nicely. I have added a humidifier as it kept dropping very low but since the introduction of that the RH now has a steady reading of 55%. Will be keeping an eye on this for a couple of days and altering its output depending on conditions fluxtuating. Pots rotated 180 degrees 23rd. Day 18. After feeding my babies yesterday they certainly seem to have had a boost. They must've been hungry and veeeerry thirst. No probs now thou Day 20 Veg. Soooo..... As you guys can see I've made it to day 20. I really didn't think I'd make it this far to be fair. The girls have had another watering today and have also had a go at LST the bigger of the 2. How this will turn out I have no idea, but worth a try

Wooooohooooo so I've made it to the end of week 3 [emoji322][emoji322]. I'm not sure if it was needed but also gave them a small feed/watering with some Flora Micro ph'd at 5.9. Hopefully won't have any negative effects and cause problems. They also had a spray with water. Also change the position of the small additional lights to the smaller plant to help it along abit. So here are the pictures for day 22/start of week 4. Comments and advice greatly received. After looking at plants closely have noticed that they may have the early stages of nitrogen toxicity or heat damage. Will keep an eye on these factors and do what's needed. Also have started to try abit if LST and also some leaf tucking to help disperse more light and help get a good flowering. After a pretty up and down week things are starting to look up for my girls. With the addition of 2 good quality 24 LED strip lights in blue to help things along. Temps and RH have been good and maintained stable readings so pleased with that aswell. As we head nearer week 5 let's hope thing go from good to excellent and we continue on an epic first time grow journey. DAY 25 VEG..........Everything is in good order as far as I can see with the girls not wanting for much. So as something abit different to do I've installed a web cam to capture some night time antics of the girls. It may me boring as hell or it may open our eyes to something completely new. I've added the first 10 pics. They are amazing but hopefully more will follow along with video.

So flowering has begun and seems to be going well apart from light burn to the top of one plant. Went away for a couple of days and didnt leave the light high enough WELL GUTTED but life and growing goes on. There hasnt been any real probs to report so will continue as i am.

Here we are from all most start to finish. Pics may not be in correct oredr as just how its uploaded but there are close to 300 pics detailing daily progress of how the grow had been . Hope you guys and gals enjoy.
