Foxygreen Newbie, White Widow Fem x4, Soil, Tent, DIY COB

[foxygreen]

So my girls just broke soil 4/12 so far so good...Not only am I a newbie grower but fairly inexperienced at posting in forums hope I get the hang of it soon., here's the stats...

4 White Widow fem from Crop King Seeds
Sativa dominant 60/40
Germinated using soak/paper towel method
2x4x5 IPower tent...I wish I had gotten a 4x4x6 but budget didn't allow
T5 HO 2"...I am still awaiting the components for COB build, more on that later
Soil FFHF...They are in Solo cups now but have 2 gallon and 5 gallon Smart pots for future transplants and I plan to add perlite to mix
Temp 75-80 f
RH 45-50
Nutes will probably be FF trio but don't have them yet since I don't expect to need them for a while
Purified drinking water

They look good and I'm already having fun....let's see if I can post this journal and then post a pic...Hmm?

My girls are doing fine, the first White widows are now 21 days veg, I topped them on 4/30. I have been frustrated with not only the 420 app on my android...but also being able to post/upload pics on my Chromebook...ugh!

Most exciting I finally got my cob parts and am busy putting it together today..so excited to see the difference in growth...they have been under a little T5 and when weather permitted brought out in sun...they will be happy!

So much to learn as a newbie it's fun though...I just need to get busy with my green house and converting my closet into a room

What kind of panel is that sitting right on your ladies?

So what I decided to get on my first of several cob builds is 3 Citizen CLU048 1818s..2 of them 80cri 3500k , 1 90cri 4000k this will be plenty for veg and then I will build another for bloom which I haven't decided yet on....stay tuned for that and my 6x6 diy green house which I plan to use for the younger 3 plants!

Just some pics taken last night....yay the 420 app is finally working for me.

It's just a 24" T5Ho Sun system Sun blaze....I will plan to use it for seedlings/clones once I get my Cob put together

 

[foxygreen]

It's more difficult being on such a tight budget but it's do-able

 

[foxygreen]

I just took pic after bring them out to enjoy some sun, top 4 are now 21 days veg from the first leaves...no nutes yet I will probably wait til week 4 and give 1/4 strength FF grow...they are in FFHF with some extra vermiculite added...the bottom younger girls are same but only 10d veg.

You should move it up its eventually going to fry your plants

Being a totally newbie I appreciate any suggestions or guidance. Wondering about a slight yellowing of bottom leaves???
I have been giving them bottled water only when dry and checking pH....lasts night I did a thorough water on pH on run off was 6.1 ish....
