Turned a closet into a 3x3 grow space by lining the walls with mylar.
Only using the viparspectra 132w at the moment. Spiderfarm sf1000 is on the way
Using https://apotforpot.com/collections/complete-kits/products/small-complete-pot-grow-kit-two-gallon
12:00 pm : planted 1 of 2 seeds that were placed in a cup of water 24 hrs ago.
The first seedling damped off due to humidity issues. RIP.
I've added a few things to help regulate things.
-Accelerooter 55 Site Floating Seed Starter Tray w/dome
-TaoTronics Cool Mist Humidifier

- Seed popped right out looking ready to grow. I saw a tiny root poking out the bottom and transplanted right away into a 2 gal. fabric pot and watered with 6.8pH until I saw water draining out the bottom.
1/17/21
- Second set of leaves has shown up. I've got a moisture meter in the soil to help me get a feel of when to water.
1/18/21
- Things are looking good. night temp gets down to 65F and humidity is staying consistent. Light is 14" away from the leaves.
1/19/21
- Givin about 1 L of water with 3.75 mL Big Bloom. My last 2 sourD seeds popped out of their root plugs so those girls into 3 gal pots filled with ocean forest and water with 6.4 pH @73F and I have those sharing the space. Thinking about purchasing a sf2000 really spice things up.

- 3 sour diesel are now chuggin along in my space, "Jim", "Dwight" ,and "Eloise".
Water Quality
-I learned that my tap water contains chloramine which will not evaporate so I'm fighting that with some 100% ascorbic acid using this spreadsheet https://www.reddit.com/r/aquaponics/comments/1qpumz/here_is_a_water_dechlorimination_calculator/ and my local water quality report.
1/24/21
- Added a SF2000 to the closet. I've got both SpiderFarmer lights connected and dimmed to 60%. My little closet is doing a great job of maintaining temp and humidity. Plants are all green and growing.
1/25/21
- Watered all 3 with some CalMag @ 6.6 pH . Day 7 Dwight (B) showing signs of propeller leaves so I adjusted the fan.
1/28/21
- Starting with the FFDD at about 1/2 recommended dose @ 6.05 pH. I read that Sour Diesel can take heavy feeding so I want to get these girls accustomed to the juice early.
1/29/21
- Hung up another small usb fan for more circulation. AC infinity cloudline t4 is on the way.
Updating photos daily. Thanks for reading.
1/29 Showing signs of overwatering, I put a small fan at their roots and am keeping an eye on them.
1/31 They appear to have bounced back, showing rapid daily growth again.
2/2 Ventilation fan installed.
2/5 Fed 1/2 strength dirty dozen @ 6.6 pH
2/9 Leaves on C are showing signs of calcium defiency, Fed with 6.7 pH calMag water. Changed the way I adjust pH by diluting the up and down before adding to nutrients
2/12 A and B are drinking faster than C now. C sewems to be a little runt compared to B. Watered A and B with 6.4 pH calMag water.
2/13 B (Dwight) is crushing it, showing flowering signs on day 23
The front runner "Dwight"(B in the photos) is amazing me everyday with her growth. B is an absolute beast compared to the other 4 plants I have in the same space with what appears to be 8 colas stretching up.
