Just looking to share my joy of Cannabis.
So as I explained I am a first time grower so I’ll explain the setup first.
I am using
( 1# 60cm height x 60cm <-> and 40 centimeters deep sorry couldn’t spell the word that starts with w so I used <-> instead.
2# A 60 watt led panel light with grow and veg mode as well as a inbuilt timer but I don’t use that I have a proper timer that doesn’t stop at 14hrs grrr.
3# a 15 cm clip fan inside.
4# a 20 desk fan outside tent used for air intake through intake vent flap.
5# a 6 inch exhaust fan with fan outside and behind tent (best way I could find to set up tent with prop ventilation.

Inline fan specs below
{220-240v , 50hz , 23w , 2500rpm , 170m3/h , 38 dB.
6# my 6 inch Carbon filter from Roofilter
7# my analog timer set to 20/4 on/off time
8# a 2.5 lt cool mist humidifier that I use outside tent occasionally.
9# General Hydroponics Flora 3 part series
(Micro , veg and bloom 946ml each bottle)
My feeding schedule goes
Water , GH solution , water GH solution exc...
The mix consists of 2.5ml micro 2.5ml veg and 1.25ml bloom per every 3.79lt of water
Mixing everytime after adding each one seperetly.
a normal water feed every other day and the same for GH Flora series
My grow consists of 1 Hindu Kush autoflower 22 days old now , 1 Afhgan autoflower 22 days old now and the 3rd I’m not sure on it is Eva haze xl or critical purple both were autoflower as well about 14 days in I’m guessing now but seems healthy.
my soil consists of peat moss , jiffy pellets , perlite , vermiculite 4 handfuls of proper potting mix and water to mix.
I am thinking in a week I should update to my 80cm x 80cm x 160cm tent for more height but am worried about setting up ventilation on it need ideas for it as it took me 3 weeks to figure out on my micro tent. I will include pictures of day 1 till now and grow setup photos. If people could offer some advice or anything.

Also I have to mention this cause it makes me laugh so when I installed ventilation to my tent it looks like it’s breathing in and out in and out ( It’s aliiiiive) sorry had to through that in

Welcome Reakingbuds to 420 magazine.
I’d say your doing a great job or should I say have passion! This is a journal in the introduction, below on my post is a link for new members the helpful one check it out!
 
Hi and welcome to the community.

You are doing awesome. First time always stressful. Start up journal everything will go smooth as silk so you can reap the rewards.
 
Those are some healthy thriving plants in that photo. You are well on your way to a successful harvest.
Just looking to share my joy of Cannabis.
So as I explained I am a first time grower so I’ll explain the setup first.
I am using
( 1# 60cm height x 60cm <-> and 40 centimeters deep sorry couldn’t spell the word that starts with w so I used <-> instead.
The word you are looking for is wide or width. The way it is traditionally used is width X depth X height (the height coming last).
 
So I have a update here the are all fantastic. So I get up i I’m checking tent out in morning as I do and Either willie Nelson broke in last night and got boxed my room or my Hindu Kush is starting to flower I could not believe how pungent the smell was I have photo updates aswell

Day 25 update :
So there still going healthy and strong I’m wondering how often I should give them nutrition and how much to give I have the feed chart but only give them nutes every other day and water inbetween???

I also updated the grow space yesterday and am now using 80cm x 80cm x160cm
I also plan on adding a 2 led panel on a tiled angle at back wall top end of inside so more light is being emitted.

I also started spraying the inside of the tent above the plants with bicarbonate soda to add extra co2 I realize that it won’t do a lot but though it can’t hurt and hasn’t hurt them yet so I will keep that goin.

Hindu Kush I decided to head it after the 6th node appeared yesterday.

Afghan I’m going to keep only in LST.

The unknown seedling im going to head it when it has 7-8 nodes

Welcome to the site and your babies look like there doing great for a first grow keep up the good work and if you have any problems just post some pics of the plants in natural light so we can all see what's happening and someone should be able to help you out there alot of experienced growers on this site and most are willing to help if they can
 
Week 7 update after a bit of a heatwave my growtent being 35 degrees Celsius and above and I’m still really suprised to see there still alive a had some growth issues. so 1 week ago my Hindu started to show signs of first pistils my Afghan still hasn’t shown its first pistils yet but the unknown strain has started as well I have added extra lights inside setup. I have 1x66 watt led panel that replaces a 1200 watt hps.
2 45 watt red and blue pannels and a 3 headed clip on light that is 45 watts so all up I’m running 201 watts inside and the pistils have started to appear every where on my Hindu Kush
 
Hey @Reapingbuds - your plants look awesome!!!

We just germinated our first Autoflower from The Vault - A 'Dutch Passion Cinderella Jack Auto'. For the longest time we were under the impression that Autos were low quality and didn't grow well - you've just proved that wrong!

Anyway, it's great to see you doing so well here.

Were you able to poke around the 420 site and find some other strains that you'd like to grow next?

If you need some more seeds, or if you just want to check out an awesome selection from top breeder on the planet - you need to head over to The Vault. And in the mean time, please click on the links in my signature below to enter for your chance to win some freebies from @George from The Vault - he is definitely our most involved and generous Sponsor here at 420!!!
