Hey Guys!
First time grower here.
So i already made a lot of mistakes in the beggining process, let me explain:
I decided to grow since im just into gardening in general, im not even smoking weed :D i just love taking care of plants and watching daily process.
I've been reading a lot of grows here undercover and since I also wanted to do a timelapse/youtube I figured lets join the Grow Diaries!
I appreciate all tips and tricks and will try to keep you guys as updated as possible, also, since I'm kinda a unpatient person myself, i though i might leave a TL;DR at the end of each week if you want to skip and just get the basic week informations asap.
English is not my native, so for any mistakes grammar wise or just written, my apologies.

First Week (well basically)
Hey Guys!
So I decided to grow cannabis. I basically had no idea what im going to get myself into ( and still haven't i guess? ^^) , so after buying some super cheap LED-Panel and converting my tiny (60x40) cabinet in my kitchen, i planted my first LSSH from Royal Queen Seeds in a 25L Pot (guys please...I'll explain xD) .
I build some air ventilation with cheap PC-vents and thought i was going to get a massive SCRoG over the next weeks.
Well, the following days i started to get into more and more reading and information gathering over the web and figured, well this aint going to work how i thought it would.
So yeah, I ended up buying the Mars Hydro TSL2000 kit which at that time was in a sale and figured lets go big or go home (yeah for my dimensons the TSL2000 is already big please dont judge :D )
and here we are. So I germinated 4 more seeds : 2 Purple Queen and 2 Lemon Shining Silver Haze, thats why i have one plant which is roughly 2 weeks ahead of the others but dont worry, i already have plans for her =)
All Seeds germinated within 36 Hours and i gotta say, 100% on Royal Queen Seeds, I'm going to stick with em!
For the first days the cheap LED-Panel was enough to provide some basic growth and some small vents did a good job for air circulation. Since it was pretty hot outside where I live, the temperature was roughly about 28,5-29,5°C at all time which helped a litte. RH% was also around 55-65% so the small plants had a nice start.
Since the Mars Hydro tent was still on its way i started to get raey with some preparations in my appartment and ordered a lot of stuff ( which i know have way too much ) on various sites (pots , scissors, stonewool, gloves etc. etc.) my excitement just got the best of me, yet again....
Take care and have a nice week
TL;DR
-all seeds germinated
-good intentions but poor decisions in first grow equipment (has been fixed i hope)
-waiting for stuff to arrive and move them into better circumstances
-my cats love geotextile pots!
