Welcome to the club! Hopefully, things go well, but if they don't, just ask for help. I'm only about 3mos into this, and have already upgraded everything 2-3 times now. You'll be surprised at how many gadgets you end up with before all is said and done. Invest in a digital pH meter. They're...

I'm NO expert, but I've been told that it's easy to chop too early, and hard to chop too late.

Yeah, I just ducked back into the tent and checked the water level after reading that article that @Teag recommended. Gave them all a topping-off of straight PH'd water. I'll re-assess daily from here on out, and dial back nutes for a few days to see how that goes. Literally 72h. 24h of that...

The TS1000 will do that area just fine. It's a great light for that size tent. Good luck!

That seedling looks perfectly happy. Keep doing what you're doing, and check back in another few weeks when you have a lot more leaves to inspect. Keep up the good work!

Just read through that whole page. Lots of great info. Thank you! I guess I'm not watering enough then. I was only doing it when the pots got light. I'm going to try nutes every other feeding on the big girls for a bit and see if that fixes the issue I'm having. In the end, it all could be...

Ok, good. Those bulbs don't kick off a lot of heat, so I think you're good in that department. Just don't want to see you light burn them. You'll get better coverage if you go a little higher too, although your PAR values will go down a bit. I'm TOLD that towards the end they will. I've always...

This is what I have in the tent right now: 3 Diesel 3 Bruce Banner 2 White Widow 2 Blueberry All in various stages of growth. I'll be adding Zkittles and Red Russian in about 14d. I love me a good gadget. Already ordered... ;-)

That seems really big for just a single 6" exhaust fan. You may be stretching it there...especially with the heat those guys are going to kick off. How tight is your budget? Could you go to an 8"? This guy is 740 CFM and would certainly do the job: (I'm using the 6" version and love it!)...

It's about to get really crowded in there... How much vertical height do you have? It looks like your lights are a little close to the canopy right now, and you are about to stretch, so that may be an issue for you. There's a chart somewhere, but the light should be 24" above the seeds, 18"...

I wouldn't touch it. Could be nothing. I certainly wouldn't cut anything off of it at all. Just give it another few weeks and reassess.

I think we figured out the issue in my grow journal. I may be over-feeding. The guy at the hydro store had me feeding with every watering, and I guess that's a no-no. So I've been over feeding this whole time. I water every 3-4 days for some plants, and every 1-2 for the thirsty girls in...

It's really something you should look at investing in. They're really not that expensive. Here are a few options at different price-points. Super cheap...

Holy shit...I think this may be my issue. I've been adding nutrients to every watering. I was just going off of what the guy at the hydroponics store told me to do. I may have been over-feeding this whole time. I'm honestly thinking this may be my next purchase. I just used my cheap-o PH soil...

You're on your way now! Are you still rethinking the DWC? Exhaust fan: If you can afford it, get the Cloudline T4. Super quiet and has a built in temp gauge that adjusts the fan speed based on the desired temperature.

Yeah, that's only 30w per square foot though. So you'll do "ok" but not great with it. Honestly, for $100 that looks like the best bang for the buck though. I'm using MarsHydro lights in my setup (link in my sig) and have been really happy with them. Edit: Also, the Roleandro is garbage.

I don't think it's light burn...my lights are at 18" so not even as close as the recommended 12". I don't think it's magnesium...I am adding cal/mag at every feeding. I don't think it's PH...I PH the water to 6.2-6.5 at every feeding. Anyone?

I'll check it tomorrow. I've been going mad researching this all day. I can't figure it out, and the thread I made isn't getting any replies. I can't stick my head in the tent right now to see if it's getting worse. Tomorrow morning is the earliest I can check. If the PH of the medium is too...

I have a T-6 in my tent and I love it. The built-in thermometer is awesome, and the thing is damn quiet.

That Lenofocus looks like it has nice parts. Hope you're not growing in a big space though. That light would be good for a 18" square area. The rule of thumb is 50W per square foot of grow space. That light is 100W, so it'd be good for about 18" square...or...one plant kept on the smaller side...
