Am I ready to go?

[Username97]

So I have stumbled into the arts of growing bud, and I am extremely amazed. I am wanting to do my own grow very soon and was hoping the lovely people of 420magazine can help me with what's next... Here is the list of my equipment I'm thinking about getting if there is clearly anything I've missed off please just say...

Equipment;
- Grow tent, 60 x 60 x 150 cm
- Hydro Mars 600w (True 272watts)
- 4" Carbon Filter, Black Orchid Small In Line Fan & Duct Kit
- Temp/Humid Thermometer
- Socket 24 Hour timer

Nutes;
- Ionic Hydro Bloom 1l bottles
- Ionic Hydro Boost 1l bottles
- Ionic Hydro Grow 1l bottles
- FloraKleen 1l bottles
- pH Up & Down 250ml Bottles

Misc;
- Rope Ratchets
- Extension Cable

Growing Media;
- Canna Coco Professional Plus
- Clay Pebbles

Few questions I have as well is...

What size pots should I use? 15 Liters or bigger?
How many plants could I grow? I want to do two but have I got the requirements for two?
Is there any other cheap good LED's that ain't a fake knock off Chinese product?
How can I control Humidity without a humidifier or De-humidifier?
What other tools, equipment will help?
What is a good type of seed to start on which will give a nice yield?

I would like to try and keep this low budget as well as a create a decent plant or plants.

BTW. I'm a newbie haha, but I've done lots of research on this topic I'm truly amazed out how this shit works and what it takes and that

Thank you too anyone who helps you the best

Assuming the light has the specs claimed, it looks great. You can probably grow 2-4 plants with that setup depending on size. You can start 4 and then eliminate males and weaklings. Starting 10 isn't even a bad idea. Just full them as they grow.

What do you mean by start with 10? Wouldn't I kill 6 of the plants? That's like £60 or more perhaps

Are you going to use femenized seeds? Will each seed grow? And what if you have a runt? Maybe start 6 and finish 3-4?

I only got 4 of my 6 female seeds to grow. One is a bit slower than the others and I may kill it off to make better use of the three i would be left with.

Ahh I see what your saying, it makes sense get the best plants I'll true that, thank you!

yeah get seeds from a good source i was lucky to get given all my dads after he passed , he always said it starts with the seeds man

97, I have the light you selected. It's a nice choice.

I'd only start 2 plants in that space.

A single plant can easily fill that size tent

Personally I'd get any feminized seed that looks good and I'd start 2 of them. Then if one has a problem you still have something to keep going.

What strains are you looking to do and photo or autos? Also depends what yeilds your looking for. Personally due to not as much experience i do more more plants just incase things f**k up! Feel as if i have more leeway to make mistakes. Would you rather have 1 big plant or 2-3 medium/smaller ? Just my small humble opinion!

Ahh awesome I was nervous about the light with very little reviews and videos etc... Do you have any journals or videos or so?

I am very anxious to start my first journal but am awaiting some things to come together first.

I'm just a beginner but have learned a lot from a few grows and have big plans in MA with the new cannabis law.

more plants fills the space quicker, turns over quicker equalls more harvests per year

How many plants would you guys recommended I could pull off with my set up? My grow room is not too big however but I could perhaps getting a little bigger grow room if my LED specs are up I'm always thinking about upgrading in the future to 2 LEDs but one will do for my first grow

All depends on the strain your choose. What type do you want? Do you grow for recreational or medicine?
Auto fem seeds might be a good start.

 

[Grumbledore]

Add 3 or 4 ounces to the list to smoke while you wait
