1000W Wing Reflector GSC In CoCo

[thejoeybrown]

hey everybody. This is my first official indoor grow so I thought I'd do a journal and hopefully get some feedback.

Environment-I am Growing 4 GSC's from seed. I am running an iPower 1000w 50% 75% 100% dimmable Ballast with corresponding 1000w MH bulb and will be switching to the 1000w hps closer to flower. It is a wing reflector (not air cooled) in a 10x10 shed. Shed is insulated, aluminum stud frame and completely free of bugs. I am running 2 oscillating fans and have the temperature under control. I live in the Bay Area at sea level so humidity is great

Medium-I am using coco coir with perlite for drainage.

Nutes- I am using Advanced Nutrients pH perfect Sensi Coco Grow part A and B for veg and will use AN sensi coco bloom A and B for flower.

I just gave first VERY light feeding (100ppm) and the pH is kept 6.0-6.4

I look forward to hearing from you guys as this progresses. Here are a few pics. They are at 2 weeks

Hey there and nice setup! Sounds like you have things well under control! This is a great place here, as I'm sure you've seen. I'll come along for the ride if you don't mind and see what you can pull from that space!!

Thank you brotha! Yes please do come along for the ride. The plan is to see how they do in there, get the room dialed in with these 4 and add a second light for the next grow. Then I will know how many to optimize the space.

Sounds good!! Figuring things out and dialing in is always a fun journey. I also always do enjoy more light haha.

What up! Time for an update and hope to get some input on the babies if anybody has any please.
They all have been growing and are really starting to show the growth big time. They all seem to be healthy overall. Just raised ppm a little last night. Now around 550. PH is kept at 5.8-5.9 and comes out between 5.9-6.0. Temps steady between 76 and 81 at most and surface temp with gun is 63-68. Feeding daily about 1.5 liter each. 24 hr light schedule. Using A.N. Sensi Coco A+B. One of the plants ( pics 7 and 8)have a little weird curl on the fan leaves and very tiny brown spot and very very slight yellowing. I thought maybe cal/mag but since it was time to up the feeding I went on as planned. Last 2 plant pics are the runt. It was a few days late and had some stress when planted but recovering since then pretty well I think. Overall very happy but any thoughts on any of the babies?? Any input at all is greatly appreciated.

Hey guys just a few update pics. Most of those pics were taken 3 days ago. I added rhino skin and cal mag to my base nutes. The babies have all seemed to respond well. The 2 with the weird growth have new growth that looks way mor normal. I topped them today and seem to be responding to that well also. The first 2 pics are from today after the first topping. Hopefully someone has some input or advice or just a comment. Thanks guys.

Right on. I agree I took the advice of someone to put them straight in their final home and almost immediately regretted it it didn't want to try and go back down. Live and learn. That's what this grow is all about. Thanks for the advice

Above is just a lil update. I decided to pot down which is unorthodox. Lol but I think it was the best decision. I may have lost 2 days or so but the babies are doin better than ever. I am feeding sensi ph perfect a and b sensi cal mag and rhino skin. Used a lil superthrive after transplant. Ppm 700-715. Please let me know what you think. All input helps me
