I am a first time grower looking to add some variety and cut costs on my medicine. I will be growing Bubblicious and AK-48 auto-flower strains.
First off this will be a closet grow. The closet is 2.5ftx3ftx8ft high. I have painted the entire closet including the floor with kills primer (supposedly very reflective and has the added bonus of killing and sealing up mold). I have a 300w Viparspectra grow light. Last minute I decided to add two 20w CFL lights on the left and right sides of the closet just above the pots. I know this is not much, but my hope is that it will add some light to the bottom of the plants and leaves. For ventilation I have cut a hole from the ceiling into the attic, and attached and sealed a fan to the ceiling (a little ghetto maybe but it sucks a ton of air into the attic and from under the door). With the 300w LED I think I will be safe for temperature with this ventilation system. For fertilizer I have jones organic, all purpose to start, then a vegetable blend after that. For the flowering stage I will be using miracle grow rose food. I have researched ingredients and each seem to be the best option for the various stages of cannabis growth. I have nothing in place to adjust humidity. I hope that adding a clear plastic cup over the seedlings is enough. This is my first grow and I plan on improving my method and setup over time.
