Ah, very interesting! I don't have any suggestions, just lots of questions, being new to growing myself. In fact I haven't even started yet, still gathering knowledge and making decisions on lighting, etc. I found it interesting you have 2 different age plants going at the same time. I...

Do you have 2 different stages/ages of plants going at the same time with the same light setup at the same distance? I didn't think that would work well, but perhaps I am mistaken?

That is a bit confusing, but I think I understand. I'll have to do some more YouTube searching, it helps me best to actually see it and see how it works to learn how to do something like that. I hope all is well with you, wishing you the best.

I assume it is OK to use tap water and preferable to use a filter like Brita/PUR before treating it for pH and with your nutrients, is that correct?

I have seen some say they use a PUR filter on their sink. I would imagine a Brita pitcher/filter would help in the same way, right? Should the water be treated for pH (or anything else) prior to watering or is pH something which is controlled in the plant/soil itself? Is the water treated...

Any thoughts on the MeanWell HEP-480-24A, HEP-480-36A or HEP-480-48A being used to drive more LEDs instead of the HLG-320H-C1400B to drive 3-4 LEDs each? I was thinking 12 LEDs would be enough for a 4x4, but some are suggesting/talking about 16 LEDs for a 4x4. Also lots of conflicting...

I originally thought 4 would fit better but I was checking out a bunch of grow journals and doing reading and a lot of people seemed to go with 6 plants in a 4x4 and something like 4 plants in a 3x3. I'm open to ideas and haven't made any real decisions just yet though.

I just read through those 3 threads... some fantastic info. Is using a screen (SCROG) another different way to do it? Which method is most effective? I'm not planning on an autoflower seed at this point.

Do you mean "form" as in a document you can share of a "forum"? The more info the better as far as I'm concerned, nothing wrong with getting carried away. Very cool that you run a dispensary in NM! I am still unsure on the seeds, I'll have to do some more searching and make a decision soon...

Thanks I'll do some YouTube watchin'. Perfect, thanks! I'll definitely give those links a look.

Thank you for the response. Any specific videos/tutorials to suggest for me? I'm sure some are better than others and some may even be completely incorrect.

Thank you again for the response. If I order seeds online, is there any way to know or guess how many seeds will be male vs. female? How much more potent will a regular be vs. feminized? I see some sites advertising 22-26% THC for feminized seeds depending on strain. I suppose I could start...

Will you wind up with more product from a regular or feminized seed as opposed to an auto seed? With regular seeds you won't know for a few weeks (from starting germination) if it is male or female, right? How much of a quality difference is there between a regular and feminized seed? I am...

Simple question... probably not a simple answer though. What are the pros and cons of each?

Apologies in advance if I ask anything incorrectly and I am sure these questions have probably been answered before, but I am hoping I can gather information together more easily in a single thread or perhaps people can point me in the right direction on a previous thread or article which will...
