Been doing some research on here for a while and have been wanting to build a stealth grow for some time with work and life it's hard to find time but I've finally done it finished the box on a budget.
And I finally got my girl in her new home. she's about 4 weeks from cracking open

sorry for the long post but i couldn't decide where to post as normally medicated and dont make the best decisions lol

I dropped 3 auto blueberry seeds in de ionised water in propagator but only 1 cracked so she got wrapped in wilkos coconut husk and hydrodton balls and put in 4 inch pot and got a good soak of water and left in the damp dark warm dome.

She's on a 20 light 4 sleep cycle and about 4 weeks after starting she in her final home till the end bit of a struggle but we got there

looking back i made some dumb errors,

i think i disturbed her roots when i repotted to a bigger dwc pot and got some wrong water capacity calculations for my nute strenght
18 litre bucket but 13 litre when filled just below net pot so 5 litre diffrence on nute strenght
changed her light from 24 hr to 20/4 then changed sleep time from 6 am to 11 am
spray feed nutes when lights on and i think thats what caused the brown spots/marks on the leaves
and letting my ph swing from 4.8 to 6.6
as the following pics show


shes 8 days old on these pics

think its folier feeding nutes with the lights on ?

She's 32 days old from cracking open but after 14 days she really started to speed up so i think the first 2 weeks were not great since shes a auto and im a noob

Been smoking for years but 1st time trying to grow and on a budget diy setup probably under £200 still trying to get final bits

For the future - plans Inc timed ptc fan heaters, co2 generator , new exhaust syatem, oscillating fans

Using general hydroponic trio @ qtr strength since day 10 and gen200 bio addative .

De ionised water from Euro car parts triple xxx brand has a 007 ppm reading

180 ppm water & 6.0 Ph on 3/4 strength nutes as of week 4

at day 31 ive just added another 1/2 tsp of nutes to the tank but im thinking im gonna change water and nutes to the flowering strength and see how she goes

im waiting on a 60x magnification lens for my phone for some close up pics of her

So thanks for reading and any tips/criticism/Help is greatly welcome

And thanx to the forum for the help over the last couple of weeks its been a great resource ??

Ps. My posts will mostly be random jibberish as usually medicated when I post.??????
