First Grow Setup Advice From An Expert?
growtopiastarted grow question 4 years ago
Hey all! So I'm going to be starting my first grow on 4/20 and wanted to make preparations in advance! Is my Amazon list + (3) 5 gallon Smart Pots a good starter setup? Any recommendable replacements( like different nute combos for sum top shelf autoflowers) in my included list??

Hate to break the budget a bit here man but that dehumidifier will not cut it in a tent that big. I have a 30 pint vented into my 3x3 tent it and it just barely does it lol. Also is it hot where you live ? You’ll need a little 800watt heater in there if it gets cold. Also a humidifier and a controller for humidity and temperature so you can controls those factors with your equipment. Also go with the 1200 light for your tent, look up the 2000 watt aglex cob series light IMO you’ll need that much for your tent. I’ve got a 1200 watt in my 3x3 tent and I want more 😂 I think with those few items man you’ll have some good ass buds . I also use recipe for success nutrients but there’s lots of good ones to each there own!

I can't give you all the advice you'll need but as a fellow newbie I can say the pH meter you have was awful for me. The pH kit you have comes with drops you can use that are just as good - but I ended up buying a better one from a local grow shop. Also some of the fans you have are battery powered - maybe not intentional, and the medium/soil seems expensive - probably can get it cheaper locally? Also depending on how you're starting you might not need it all day 1.

Incredibly low CO2 levelsAfter adding an A/C to my tent I began using bottled CO2 like never before. 20lbs in 5 days. Without adding, my CO2 is at 4 ppm. Yes, four parts per million in the dark. How can this be possible if the air in my house sits at 400ppm? I read that photosynthesis stops below 200ppmSetup. Other

Rapid Aging Syndrome!My plant has developed 80% orange/brown pistils after only 4 weeks of flower. I know pollination can cause this, although I haven't found any male flowers. Could hot temperature/humidity, or nutrients cause this, and is there chance she'll still fatten up in the coming weeks?8 months ago

How many plants and how big should the pots be on an 90x40 cm surface ?I have 6 plants (7L pots) but there is probably not enough space between buds. My yield could be better (180-200g). What's the best strategy that won't take too much vegging extra time ? Bigger pots, less plants anyway ?

I am a little confused on how I should have my tent set up. I have an exhaust fan exhausting out of the top "chimney" and the two square bottom vents open. My way of thinking is that my exhaust fan will pull clean air in from the square vents. Do I need intake fan??Setup. Other
