Up and growing. A little leggy but off to a good start. Whoa...haven't bought a light yet. I have decided though. Medic Grow EZ 8. With a little luck it will be in and set up within a week. I would like to get all of the girls into their final homes.
Just finishing new flower room. I should have enough space for at least 8 plants. At least for now, I like being able to move around on all sides of the plants.
Gonna try the hands-off approach again. Especially during seedling and early veg. I don't know if this is optimal, but it is working for me now. Hands off for now being no nutrients and no "hot" soil until transplant into final homes whether it be soil or Hydro.
I have used dechlorinated ph'd water (to 6.8) only. Just enough to keep the Root Riot and expanded clay moist. I am using a DIY light that currently produces around 80w.
Hey nice garden bro, is this your first run with that Medic Grow 1000 Watt light? I am running their Spectrum X 880 watt light now but its my first run. How do you like the light so far?
@Tweezer, Thanks for kind words. My first run also. All plants (9) 4 in RDWC seem to have loved it in Veg. I have not cranked up to 100% yet and I might not. The 80% setting has been working great. I shall see how the plants flower. My first impression of the light is very good. Now... I have nothing to compare it to but it does heat my room up quite a bit. Well, I guess I should expect that. I hung the light high and I have not moved. Fingers still crossed but I believe this to be a good purchase. I wish the same and better for you. Good luck, gonna check you out now! I meant to mention... I am in a 6x6 with reflective walls. Basically, a tent, and the light covers this area completely. I have different size pots, but I am confident this light is enough for the entire room.
