Week one went well. I am still a new grower with lots to learn. Any advice or help is appreciated. This is my first diary I have started. I will make more with the other strains I'm growing.

I am using the mars hydro ur45 LED for the first time. I am using it how they recommend it be used. Has anyone used one of these in their grow? Is the mars hydro recommended schedule okay? Or should I be using it a different way in my grow? Thanks!

The UV-A is very powerful. And you'll find mixed opinions on it I did notice a sharp increase in resin and trichomes with my autos were out out this world mixed auto strain diary I talk in depth as I said in all aspects of this light. Feel free to mes me for a semi guide when to use. But, they really are a gift for fems. They speed up the time it takes to flip into pre flower from 10-14 days to 4-7 days i see pistils (stigmata) days after I switch to a 13/11 on/off for pre flower. And for fattening you can do a 14/10 on/off but with autos. You don't need it, as you will reach your DLI within the 18hr window. But with fems. It adds extra DLI by like 20%. Amazing when you fully grasp how to use it.

I am growing in 50/50 Fox farm happy frog and ocean forest. I started doing a little LST on day 15 hopefully not too early. Week 2 went great no issues. I will be starting Fox farm nutrients at around week 4.

Had some pH issues but got it back to normal not without doing damage though. Strongest smelling plant in my tent buds aren't super dense though most likely my fault but color and smell is great

Hey. I have the IR/UV 45. Its one of my main tools for all my grows bar this one. As I'm doing a sponsored Spider-Farmer SE5000 grow. So, I have to leave it out. But, its amazing look at a few of my diaries. I made lots of mistakes. But, I learnt myself how to use it. Lots of dos & don't. Just watch pre flower. You can easily add 20-30 unwanted extra cm if used wrong. The UV 2 x 30m sessions for veg. You can increase to 2x 1hr sessions later veg and into pre flower. For fattening you can up it to 2x 1.5/2hrs into ripening you can run the same but higher it from your canopy to protect your trichomes. Sry was blocked couldn't add this.
