Just added the 150 w HPS, need to upgrade asap (money pending). got a couple cfls to add spectrum. Soil is 20% perlite, 80% Fox Farm's Ocean Forrest. Fert is Seabird Guano but will change to a combo of mag-cal n other hydro ferts later. It's about 1 month in..precisely 35 days. They are all in 3 gal bags/pots. cept for 3 i put in a trial transfer of soil to bubbleponic. The soil was harder to get out of the roots than i thought so there is still a bit on the roots in the hydroton medium. They aren't lookin too hot after 2 and 1/2 days. The roots were circling around the small 1 gal pots n i ran out of soil/money for soil so i decided to try out my bubbleponic cloner setup as a deep water culture kinda deal. the bottom of the net pots are getting wet from the splashing but no roots have ventured out from the hydroton yet. we have root 66 and sugar daddy in our reservoir.

Also tips for whats goin on with my leaves would be helpful. yellowing and brown spots... ive looked under similar forums for solutions but it seems like it could be many different things. so not sure what to do about that.

Advice on pots vs grow bags would be appreciated as well.View attachment 1307105View attachment 1307127View attachment 1307124View attachment 1307122View attachment 1307120View attachment 1307118View attachment 1307114View attachment 1307112View attachment 1307111View attachment 1307109View attachment 1307108View attachment 1307107View attachment 1307106View attachment 1307129View attachment 1307171View attachment 1307170View attachment 1307169View attachment 1307167View attachment 1307172

Not sure about the ones in hydroton but some plants in soil look like they could use some magnesium and some of the leaves just got wet and turned yellow and brown on others. Overall they look great! Keep us posted.

If i were you, I would switch my wall coverings to flat white... it reflects light more evenly, so you wont get the burn

You have too many plants for the light you have. HUGE rookie mistake. You have enough lights (Watts) for about 6 plants...and that's pushing it. I have 400W and grow 2 plants. You'll end up with low yielding tall plants looking for light, even if you rotate them. Nutes should be given every week. Hydro, change the water out and clean the tote out.
