(1st grow) indoor t5/soil/auto (mephisto - tyrone special)

got half 2900k/half 6500k bulbs in there now and set to 19/5

thanks for the advice, and the big excitement is i can set up my second grow area now that the inspection is finished :D

tomorrow should be fun - unboxing new light, setting up tent, mixing soil, planting seeds, etc.

funny how busy i'll be, but when coworkers ask what i did for the weekend it'll just be 'oh not much, just watched some football' xD
Have fun.

I think growing is more addicting than smoking it.
 
any clue what we got goin on with the bottom leaves here? soil too hot for them? hope they tough it out lol

could it be due to water on the leaves and getting baked by the lighting? came home from work the other day to find my significant other had watered them with a spray bottle (what I was doing when they were germinating/sprouting so I didn't drown them) - gave a talk about how they can just be watered normally and already get enough water from me taking care of them so stop doing that lol

doubting that's what caused it tho but the only weird thing that's come up so far
 
I see this deformity on autos more than on normal plants. I think it has to do with your PH levels. Make sure you have a digital tester as the strips are a pain in the @ss.

Yeah on the first pic I saw those spots as possibly from watering too, but on the last one, not so sure.
Not saying it is water damage, just another set of wondering eyes here haha
 
xD i'll check the ph. a meter i had was garbage and tossed it, have a soil ph test tho n i'll do that. guess i haven't been considering ph cuz i'm just throwing mostly distilled water in there, spose mixing it with tap water (even if filtered and sat out) might not be great.

sad how fucked up city water is xD
 
btw have any recommendations on a solid, good quality ph meter? i'd spend the money but worried that most out there are junk
 
pulling them apart n tying them down - It's tough! they're so short and so dense, at least they seem healthy and nice smelling at this point xD idk if the big plant is overwatered or too much N, looks better now a couple hours after picture time anyway. Look alright to you guys?

Ohwow they're building up flowers fast! :D
I'm intrigued, would've expected them to grow more first...
never generalize on how a plant will do? haha
 
Quick question - not trying to hijack your thread, gold lion.
@whitebb2727, you suggested running veg nutes the whole grow. What about flower nutes (tiger bloom) & what ppm?
