Double Grape (First Ever Grow!)

I'm genuinely excited to bring to yall all my first ever grow. Before I begin, I just want to give a shoutout to all of you, who have have indirectly taught me everything that I know. For months, I've followed all your grows and learned a lot about your art and I'm pleased to be able to give back to my fellow weedy mcweedertons. This grow is the result of my learning here. To start, I want to give a little background on my setup: 5x5 grow tent by Galaxy Tents (Dealzer) This thing is a huge and the canvas is very THICK. I picked this tent because I grow in my bedroom and need to minimize any possibility of light leak. Allegedly, these tents also offer the thickest and strongest poles in the market (again, "allegedly"). Since this is my first tent, I really don't have anything to compare it to, but I'm hanging an 8" carbon filter going into an 8" Hyperfan stealth, with my grow light in between. I'm prolly hanging close to 100 lb from the support poles in top of my tent but honestly I think it can hold at least 50lb more. As for the placement of my tent, I wanted the most mild temperate climate for my grow so I decided to put the setup in my bedroom. I literally have the tent at the end of my bed and theres just enough space for a corner desk and a dresser :) HLG-550 by Horticulture Lighting Group After weeks of research, I've come to learn that lighting is crucial in that it pretty much determines the maximum yield in which I can grow. Since I live in an older rowhouse in DC (shoutout to my DC homies), I also don't have much voltage to work with until my fuse goes out. HLG is perfect because of the efficiency of their lights. Running at 2.4 micromoles, my HLG is BRIGHT as hell for 500 watts. The first few days I ran this thing, I definitely felt some heat before realizing that the driver was set to max power. Since my plants are currently vegging, I turned the driver down to 205 watts (measure using a kill-a-watt meter) which I think will be plenty enough for the couple weeks. I'll be slowly cranking this guy up in power as the weeks go by. 8" Hyperfan Stealth (+ Vivosun 8" Carbon Filter) These things are YUGE. I'm hanging these guys using crate scraps I found Amazon from the top of my tent. The reason why I went big on these bad boys is because I didn't want to stress my equipment by using them at max power. I want to use these as long as I can so I run these guys on the low side so I don't stress them out. The Hyperfan is really quiet even at faster speeds and I have found the white noise to be unintrusive when I'm sleeping (right beside it). The noise is almost unnoticable outside my bedroom door. I run the fan with venting to a window dryer vent I placed in my bedroom window. Lasko #2535 52" Oscillating Pedestal Fan Its a fan. It does what I need it to do. Runs about 30 watts at max speed with oscillation. 7 Gallon Air Pruning Pots by Ultra Oxy Pots with FoxFarm LocoCoco I hope I picked a good combo with this but only time will tell. Really just picked this up because of the reviews I read online. These pots are more like 5 gallons even though the name says 7. WEEK 1: This week one from sprout, not seed. Its been around 6 days since these seeds popped and theyre looking great. Plant B had, what I believe to be, light burn from running the light at 500 watts the first two days since sprout. Confused in what to do, I consulted an expert I was following for a while, Green State. (I'll put a link to his YouTube channel below.) He pretty much told me that since my plants were small they did not require as much light as my lights were putting out and that I was wasting electricity and pushing my plants too hard since I was running the light 24/0. I dialed the light to 205w and all the plants seem to be happy. As for nutrition, I am only feeding these plants distilled water that I pH'd. SHOUTOUT: Shoutout to my boi, Green State, for being the fuckin man and knowing all things Weed. He's the prodigal son of Mary Jane and the dank prince of Indica.

Thats it for this week. Please, if you guys have any tips or questions about my grow, please leave a comment. Stay frosty but more importantly, STAY WOKE!
