Shades First Grow, Soil, Candy Kush Feminised 2019

[SlackerShade]

Hi there 420, very excited to be starting my first grow journal so here goes, hit me up if i miss any important information.

Ok so to start i guess i can give a quick rundown of my equipment/grow.

I'm using a 90cmx90cmx170cm Secret Jardin Dark Street v3.0 DS90 grow tent. in inches thats 36 inch x 36 inch x 67 inch.
The pots are fabric 3.5gallon pots.
Soil i'm using is Biobizz all-mix soil (it is the fertilised variant). I realised this may have been a mistake as the soil could be too "hot" for my new plants too late so i'm just rolling with it hoping for the best.
Got a CAN RK 125L - Rhino Pro 125/300 extraction fan with charcoal filter setup.
Have 1 fan at top of tent and one at bottom for circulation and to hit the plants with a breeze for stronger growth.
Nutes i'm going with are buddhas tree range full set.
Strain is Candy Kush express by royal queen seeds. Its a hybrid. Type: Sativa 40% Indica 60%
Light is a 600W LED with bloom/veg setting.
Right now i'm watering carefully as needed. Any advice on how much to water would be great.

Forgive me i accidentally hit enter and started the thread without all of this finished!!

Anyhow, moving on. I germinated the seeds in peat pellets on 15-20/12/18. And planted them in the tent under lights on the 21/12/18.
Right now i'm running an 18/6 light cycle with only the blue light on. (should i have both blue and red on?)
I don't plan on starting nutes until 3-4 weeks in because the soil was already heavily fertilised.

I plan on scrogging this grow when i can, and i'm going to top each plant a minimum of 2 times, i don't know how plants respond to it so i'll have to find that out as i go. I'll be taking pics as i go to throw in here.

Hey there, plants seem to be growing along nicely now, about 20 days in. No problems so far. Was hoping someone who sees this thread could give me advice on when to top them, as i would like to top them 2 times each and i'm unsure when to do it. Including a pic of each of the 3 plants.

Bit late updating this as I've had the flu, But here are my 3 plants after their first top i think around a week ago now, on the 14th. I also started using nutrients this Monday and the plants seem to be looking great. Really glad i decided to set this up.

Here are my girls after their 2nd top today, I think this may be the last time i top these, as i'd like to stop vegging in the near future. But we'll see how i feel when they've grown a bit more. They're looking/feeling strong and seem to be growing quite fast now with the nutes.

Hope all is well in your world.

Is this grow still alive?

We would love to be updated with some pictures and info.

How about posting a 420 Strain Review?

If you need any help with posting photos, please read our Photo Gallery Tutorial.

I am moving this to Abandoned Journals until we get updates.

Sending you lots of love and positive energy.

Hey there, got a couple of questions on how to ph down my grow. I can post pics tomorrow, currently awaiting a new phone. Anyhow, i have a small ph problem, its gone up to 8. I'm desperate to fix this fast so any advice would be great as googling this is just making me frustrated as i cant find a concise answer with a set method that is easy to understand/replicate.

Hey guys, here are my plants after 2.5 weeks into flower, they're showing some slight yellowing leaves which i think is a ph problem. Any help identifying issues would be greatly appreciated!
