    VPD and why do I care

    This post was originally about VPD. 83/55 according to the VPD chart I have is way into the stress zone.

    VPD and why do I care

    @guitarguy10 Thanks for all the info! I think your thoughts about ducting the exhaust outside are good! I'm going to try it. I have the infinity 6 in my shopping cart. With controller of course. My light is a Spider Farmer SF4000 LED. I've been experimenting with manually adjusting the fan speed...

    VPD and why do I care

    I came up with the same conclusion, and I'm going with 6. The calculators for CFM don't lie. I think one thing I'm apparently doing wrong is I have my air filter and fan outside the tent with a duct running in. Looks like everybody else mounts filter and fan inside the tent. I had an intake fan...

    VPD and why do I care

    I'll be following your advice. I also have a 6" intake which is probably too big too. Again, I live in the SE US, and the humidity and temp vary wildly during this time of year. Keeping the temp/hum at a proper level is driving me nuts. What I'm doing now can't possibly be right. I have my 6"...

    VPD and why do I care

    So, I'm growing in a 5x5 tent, organic soil. SF 4000 lights. I live in the southeast US, hot and humid. I have a small A/C in my tent. My intake fan is sucking in humidified air from a humidifer/the room. So one place I read that 70-85 F. and 40-70% humidity is where you want to be. Great. Then...

    First time making super soil

    I have filled the holes the dogs dug with the soil I made :) You made me nervous. I cobbled together this recipe and plan from yours and what I had on hand/what I could get quickly, since I have two seedlings in Rockwool that are almost ready. My recipe and plan: Base mix: 5 gal BioBiz light...

    First time making super soil

    I've learned the hard way to take all advice with a grain of salt, and find agreement elsewhere before I try it. And the youtube videos I watch are from experienced growers and scientists. I trust them. Do you mean chicken pellets like they feed chickens?

    First time making super soil

    No, TWO 5 gallon, total 10 gals. And these are autos. Photoperiod is my next challenge. Does that change your comment, or do I need more cal and mag?

    First time making super soil

    It was all guessing. I couldn't find a definitive recipe I liked. This is based on watching a buttload of YouTube videos. for the 2 5 gal pots I'm using: 1/3 each Mushroom/Humus compost, Biobizz Perlite around 2-3 cups each Neem Cake, Blood Meal, Fish Bone Meal, Kelp Powder Mycorrhizal...

    First time making super soil

    I forgot to include the worm castings and Perlite, they are in there ! I've overwatered to death, so I'm generous with Perlite. Azomite and ecothrive, I'm checking that out. Thanks man.

    First time making super soil
