    5x5 tent set up

    My understanding is it'll work for both veg and flower. That is what I was planning to do. I am still pretty new to all this, so it would be useful if someone else was able to confirm my suspicions.

    5x5 tent set up

    Hey all, Sorry for the delay in replying, last week was crazy. I ordered some Mephisto seeds so I'll be starting my first grow this week or next. I appreciate the input. The reason I didn't have the fan over the middle of the tent to start was I was a little concerned about vertical space...

    5x5 tent set up

    Hey all I have an AC infinity 5x5 tent and I'm looking for a little inspiration/help on my set up. I am struggling with how to mount the filter/fan as well as where to route all the cables. I cut a piece of plywood to mount the fan to with rubber washers and that is how the body of the fan is...

    Mixing soil with perlite questions

    I'm going to be using Coast of Maine Stonington blend for my first indoor grow. I've read that its a pretty dense soil and should be mixed with perlite to help with drainage. Is there anything I should be looking for when I pick up some perlite? What percentage mix should I be using between...

    How often should exhaust fan be running?

    I do have an AC infinity fan, I bought an 8" for my 5x5x7 tent, I know its a little overkill but between the filter and ducting bend losses I didnt want to have to run it at 100% anyways. If it is cycling for say only half the day, will that still be sufficient C02 for the plants? That was my...

    How often should exhaust fan be running?

    I've read you want to spec your exhaust fan such that you refresh the air at least every minute. Should the exhaust fan be running 24/7? Only when the light is running? Only when needed to maintain temperature? Thanks!

    Auto or Photos for beginners?

    Getting ready to start my first indoor grow. I am down to ordering some seeds and then finding the right soil/nutrients. I have tried to do some reading on the benefits of auto vs photos but in terms of which is easier for a beginner I am seeing what seems to be mixed reviews. I am not super...

    Bagged super soil questions - looking at Coast of Maine

    I hope this is the right spot for this thread - had some trouble finding the right sub forum for it. For my first couple of grows I am hoping to use a bagged super soil to avoid the hassle of mixing/making my own. I understand its going to be more expensive this way but hoping it simplifies the...

    Pot size for a 5x5 tent?

    Thanks for the input. Do you think 5 gallon pots will be big enough if I decide to go photos? Or with only 4 should I be looking at the 7 gallons? Do you have any soil recommendations? Im currently leaning towards something like kind soil or foxfarm soil

    Pot size for a 5x5 tent?

    Hey everyone I am planning my first grow indoors and currently have picked up a 5x5 tent,HLG scorpion Diablo, and a 6” in-line fan with filter. I am now trying to figure out the right size pot/number of plants. My hope is to treat it closer to a 4x4 tent and not pack it full so I have some room...

    Grow light selection for 5x5 tent

    Hey all Going to give indoor growing a shot for the first time. I previously grew outdoors in CA but I’m moving to a less than legal state so looking to drop a tent in the house somewhere. I have settled on a 5x5 tent, but mostly just plan to fill it as a 4x4 and have some space for fans etc. As...
