If I remember correctly, 150w MH will cover about 2x2. Likely need new bulbs . . . they lose quite a bit of output when they get some hours on them.

Get away from the potting soils as seed starter, not the same. You're using Fox Farms, try their Light Warrior for seeds, from the FF website: "Light Warrior® is a soilless medium designed for starting seeds. It is very lightweight and holds water well, which makes it perfect for germination...

You only need a "special" germination method if you have questionable seeds. A good, healthy seed only needs moisture and warmth to take off . . . the same as all the vegetable seeds we plant in the spring. We sow them in the dirt and feel confident they will grow . . . cannabis is the same...

Correction: Times are 10:30, 3:30 and 8:30 . . . no 5:30 feeding. Light comes on at 10:00 am, 12/12 for photoperiods. First feeding runs an extra 15 seconds, right now pump is on 65/50/50 in seconds. Just swapped the pump so that still has to be dialed in a bit, but I'm close to target 20% runoff.

Grow room is 5'8" X 7'8", I have an HLG Scorpion Rspec over the back 5', 6" exhaust w/carbon filter, 6" intake w/HVAC filter, lung room conditioned to 72º F and 50% rh. I run DTW, 3 gal. FloraFlex buckets with their Matrix, circulator and pad. 18 gal. reservoir, timer/pump feeds to runoff at...

I used that feed chart for several years with good results. GH has newer ones on their website and I finally changed over to this one in coco: I've been pleased with the results feeding 3 times per day to 15-20% runoff in 3 gallon pots. More than a plant or two and some type of drainage...

Simplest water level gauges I've seen were made with fishing line, 2 weights and a bobber. Attach bobber to weight, attach line to bobber, toss it in tank and run line through top, fill tank and attach smaller weight to outside line at bottom. As level drops the outside weight will rise up the...
