Cultivator Disciple · Apr 22, 2018

Hey everyone,

Here's my first grow ever that I am doing to get a little bit of medicine to cure my anxiety. Don't want to get in my body what someone else is groing just for commercial purposes without really caring about quality. I am growing 5 seeds that were started in 16oz (0.5 liter) pots that are now in 1 gallon fabric pots and will end up in 5 gallon fabric pots. I am planning to veg for 5 weeks since day 1 having planted seeds and then 8 week flower.

This is my setup:
120 x 120 x 240 gorilla grow tent
Kind Led XL750
Humidifier
12" Fan...

Could someone please help me because I can't leave my oscillating fan on 24 hours as it takes most of my humidity and leaves it with usually 40% maximum. Does anyone have a solution for this ? I want to have at least 55% RH since I've just started week 2 of Veg.

Can't wait to go throughout this 4 month adventure : )

Now in Week 2 of VEG yesterday got in my reservoir 0.3 EC CalMag, 0.5 EC Coco A+B, 0.1 Rhizotonic and some Great Microzae sprinkled as well. Throughout my grow journal I will speak in EC and not PPM's as there are three different ppm conversions (Hanna, Eutech and Truncheon which make it pointless to give to you as my meter is in truncheon and most people's are in Hanna and Eutech. By the way here is a page that gives conversions from EC to the three different measure units.

Could you all please tell me how you think my girl's are looking ?

Plug your fan into the timer, so it is on only when the lights are on. They can stand a few hours not being blown around. Or, you can use a smaller fan. I use the small desk fans, and they put out a gentle breeze that keeps the air flowing.

I'll go and fetch a smaller fan tomorrow indeed ! Thanx for the advice. WOuld you run in 24 hours until harvest ? Also do you start having it on as of day 1 when your seed sprouts ?

I run my mini-fans 24 hours. I prefer them over larger fans because 1) they are cheap and 2) they last much longer than larger fans. I just tossed a rather expensive 10" desk fan, whose motor burned up. I've had the mini-fans for years.

If your ambient humidity is at least 50%, you wont need a humidity dome, and you can let a min-fan blow gently across the seedlings. It will strengthen their stems.

There you are! Looking nice and clean. Happy group!

Thinking of getting this one. What do you think ?

AKgramma · Apr 22, 2018

Clip-on fans are GREAT! you can get them up off the floor, clip them to the edge of a pot and point it upwards, or just about anywhere you have a shelf.

What's going on friends ? Just wanted to post up some new pics of how things are going as well as give you my new feeding regime that I will be giving the girls until end of VEG which means probably another 3 weeks as today is day 16 since planting seeds. I have changed my feeding schedule after having seen @Cultivator 's EC total throughout VEG although I'm not using his same brand of nutes. That will be for next grow as I did spend quite a bit on this line of nutes ! I am runnning oscillating fan 18 hours a day when lights are on and keeping my temp to roughly 77°F (25°c) in the daytime and 68°f (20°c) at night time with a humidity level fluctuating from 45 - 55%.

New feeding regime that I will be giving the girls up until end of VEG:
0.3 EC CalMag
0.9 EC Coco A+B
0.2 EC Rhizotonic - 40ml/2.5 Gallons (10 liters)
0.0 EC Cannazym 25ml/2.5 Gallons (10 liters)
1 scoop of Great White Microzae

Let me know what you think of the setup, feeding regime and how the girls are looking:
