Looks like your prepared and a nice setup at that!

Someone will come say that the Mars TSW2000 flowers a 3x3 space so I will add it in here but you have a great setup. I look forward to seeing what happens in it

Solid setup, using things you probably didn't think were possible back 35 years ago

Did you grow indoor or outdoor when you last grew?

Underground in a 40' moving container with sodium lamps, pretty much indoors

Yeah light definitely blooms in a 3x3 footprint but I am only doing 4 plants in 5gal fabric so should be more than sufficient. If not I might adjust to 2 SP3000 's on my next grow? Other than that I can't even sit still waiting to see where this next adventure takes me. On another side note, my VA Doctor told me I am the first person in my region to be given a medical marijuana license, so baby steps for all my other brothers out there suffering from PTSD! THC & CBD has given me my life back!

This little grow. Should be a breeze for you. What strain after you planning on growing?

Definitely going Indica all the way on the first after 35. These 4 should all be nice and robust with good yield and potency. All 4 are Photo Clones...

I am planning a 20:1 CBD grow next and a couple of something else.

Your light is more then enough for a little grow to get back in the swing but the light is an amazing light, in my 4x4 tent I use the tsl2000 not tsw2000 and I have 2 of those but it is way more light then needed, no burning just I need sunglasses...

Zkittlez Mintz, Northern Berry and Legacy OG for my first grow

Just got the 4x4 tent and my TSW2000 today with a few other things. Waiting on the AC infinity Cloudline T6 to show up tomorrow or Sunday? Rest of everything I will need for this grow should show up this coming week!

Looking good that's a cute filter what CFM is it rated for? You don't want to be going over the rating with the fan.

550cfm so she should be good to go

I have more pressing issues. So tap water at my home is ridiculous with a ph of 8 and ppm of around 450ppm.
So got these Brita 2 stage filtered pitchers and no bueno, ppm went up to 573, what gives? Also if I use PH down from General Hydroponics it raises the PPM to over 1000ppm

 

[oldsmokey]

That sounds strange. I don't trust those cheap meters. I had one like that and you can't even calibrate it. Are you on city water or well?

 

[Farthestnorth]

Community well

You might need to get an RO system.
