Hello friends! This will be my first attempt at an indoor grow. I have done a bunch of research online, and in local grow stores. Man there is a lot to take in, but for this first one I’m going to try to keep it as simple as possible. The clone store here locally suggested Fox Farms Ocean Forest soul, as that is what they use for their new clones.
I picked up a few bags of the fox farms, 6 one gallon pots, 6 five gallon pots, and my clones last weekend. The clone store had limited selection at the moment so I ended up with the plants below.
2 - Vintage Pakistani
2 - Kings Banner #8
2 - Too Buku #22
My tent setup is as shown below.
4x4 tent
Cloud line t6
Vivosun 6 inch carbon filter
Mars Hydro ts3000k
2 small fans
I’m running everything in my garage where it stays around 75 or so, so my temps in the tent stay around 78 or so, but I haven’t seen them go over 80.
After I brought the clones home, the girl told me to leave them in their small cups for two days. I did that, and they were looking good. They had watered them the night before I purchased them, and said they water all their clones at night. After 2 days, I transplanted them over to the one gallon pots. I did this off of the recommendation of both the clone store staff, and the grow store staff. But I’m not sure if I shouldn’t have left them another day or so. I watered them in with around a cup and a half of water each, but they have been slightly droopy since the transplant. Last night the tops of the soil were beginning to feel dry, so I checked with a moisture meter that I had purchased, and they looked to be at the low end of the “moist” range. I gave them another cup and a half of water, but that wasn’t enough to have any runoff, so I wondered if I didn’t water them enough. My water pH stays around 7.2 from my kitchen sink, but I’m wondering if I need to get a different tester, as the electronic one I bought seems odd to me, but this is the first time I’ve used one.
I’ve read that overwatering is a very common mistake, and I’m hoping that what I have going on, because they are looking extra droopy this morning. I’d love to hear any feedback good or bad, I’m going to be learning for a while so any help is appreciated!
