Hello everyone
New grower here and new member so any advice or criticism is welcomed.
I have recently received several (9) lighting units from work and chains for height adjustment as we have changed over to LED. They are the low bay unit types. The lights run 250w MH and HPS. I also managed to get a 250w OSRAM NAV-T HPS bulb FOC from my local store.
I have purchased 2 in-line 4" fans (one for the inlet and one for the outlet) and a carbon filter to match, the fans shift 150m3/h each. I also have a small fan for circulation inside the room.
The room is 3.5' x 3.5' x 17' and is brick built.
I have ordered 3 x Skunk #1 feminists automatic seeds which should be delivered tomorrow
I can't wait.
Does my setup seem OK?
My plan is to germinate in paper towels placed into a Ziploc bag and then plant into the final pots which will be 3 gallon or 5 gallon u decided yet but as they are supposed to finish flowering after 95 days 3 gallon should be enough right?
I then plan to put the seedlings straight under the 250w HPS at a distance of around 16" to make sure I don't kill them off lowering gradually to around 8" or less if possible.
I won't be feeding any nutrients until at least a month in as the soil I will be using is my own nutrient rich stuff I make on my allotment. When I do feed nutrients it will only be at 1/4 strength.
The lights will be on 18/6 throughout the whole grow, as will the fans. I will only introduce the carbon filter when a smell starts to take over.
I plan on growing 1 plant first off as a trial as I have never done this before. I suppose what I am asking is, does my above seem good to go or am I missing anything?
Thanks in advance guys n girls
