My First Indoor Tent Grow

Hey Everyone!

I have been looking all over this great website and I am amazed with the amount of information that one can attain from just reading about people's experiences and strategies with all different types of methods and point of views. I am attempting A small grow and I am going to record information about it. If anyone at all has any information to share, go for it! Your criticism is very much appreciated.

This is my first bubbleponic grow. I am currently growing 4 plants
from a premium seed mix that is composed of both sativa and indica strains. I am currently using 1/4 Strength Stealth Hydro fire and forget nutrients with Ultra-Micron Reverse Osmosis Water. I have two bubble disks in the reservoir; one being 4" and one 5". I use a 20,000 Lumen CFL Light Fixture with a Mixed Spectrum.

Temperature is always between 75-80 Degrees, Humidity is around 40% or so.

THIS IS DAY 7




The last baby was born a little retarted but its bright green and looks promising.

Nice looking man.

Will be watching!

Im Slightly noticing a little bit of a darkish color in the tips of one of the plants on the first set of fan leaves and it looks like its working its way down the leaf. I wonder what it is..

DAY 11

Problem with tips..

they look fine. You have done some research. Keep it going. VV

You think they'll get used to the high level of nutrients? You can notice the damage right? I mean they arent in very good condition.. The root systems are very well developed and white though.. Lots of oxygen hitting the roots, too. I got 2 4" bubble disks and one 5" one. I foliar fed it once and they kinda didn't like it and then i raised the nutrient level a bit.. What are your thoughts?

do you have a PPM meter?

you shouldnt be RAISING nutes at day 11!!!!

I would only have your nutes like half or even a third of full veg nutes. They are to young.

Hey everyone.. I had a "dirty" reservoir with half strength PH buffered nutes in RO water and it seems like the problem was nute burn. I cleaned all the water and cleaned the tank and added 6 gallons of fresh RO water with no nutes to try to aid my babies. Any ideas on what I should do next? When should I add nutes again?

Don't add nutes until you are getting growth from the plants. Couple of nodes or so. When you add don't go full strength veg try about third strength first and check growth and so on till your at full veg.

Another words coming out of shock.

I see, So I should wait a while until they come out of shock and I should then add 1/4 Nutrient strength? Also what is the best, most recommended Hydroponic nutrient you know of?

I personally like the General Hydroponics. Red, Brown, Green. Work well for me.And the purple seems to like it as well. Diamond nectar additive. Magical a must additive. And Super Oxy H2o2.

You mean Bloom, Grow, Micro, Bloom Booster, Diamond Nectar, and Magical? And how do you use the Hydrogen Peroxide.. What are YOUR feeding schedules normally?
TY In advance for your help bro

not necessarily!!!

I do all my measurement by the 5 gallon. H2o2 i use 10 drops per 5g. Magical 5 tsp per 5g. Diamond Nectar 5 tap per 5g. That is full nute strength. Clones or seedlings 1 tsp red green brown each. First week of veg 3g 3b 3r. 2 week 9g 6b 3r. full veg 15g 10b 5r that tsp per 5 gallon. I would be careful using the h2o2 on little plants. Get glove. Burns your hands. Premix in water before your add your nutes to it.

More chemical is not nessarily better. More additive the more you need to pay attention to ph and not giving before the plant is ready. This have been used on 2 different purple strains with good results.

I have the following: A pre-packaged PH buffered Micro,Grow,Bloom nutrient group, and I have General hydroponics Micro Grow Bloom. What is your recommendation? When I suffered nute burn I was using the pre-packaged ones at 1/2 Str.

use the pre packaged at 1/4 strength


1/2 is way too strong....always start 1/4, work your way up!

have you thought of an EC meter? helped me to control the amount of nutes properly.
