Think I made progress.

So my first attempt didn’t end that great. Huge plastic pots with no drainage. Straight dirt. Led to a few babies doing better than expected. But all in all a let down. Now I have fabric pots. I can’t find coco or perlite anywhere near me. So I did even parts, vermiculite. Peat moss and dirt. With better nutrients. My wish list is down to coco another ballast and start to buy high end seeds. If anyone sees just from pictures where I could do better please let me know! Also instead of just the 400 HPS bulbs for veg and flower. I added LEDS around it. image.jpgimage.jpg

Using your hps mixed with the led’s gives you the best of both worlds. Plants look good! Been growing a long time you never stop learning. Been using Flora Series for couple decades always been good to me. Watch your watering using vermiculite will hold water for longer periods of time. Good luck!

That’s music to my ears. I read that above t the bulbs and led mixing so I had to try. And yes I always wanna learn. Because I know nothing. And just teaching myself. But thank your kind words. Made me smile.

Thank you! I second guess myself a lot. I really wish I could find some coco near me. And perlite and inoculate for the roots. And I’m using ph perfect technology brand. Bloom micro and grow. Only brand I’ve ever tried and big bud during flowering. It says cup winning nutrients but idk. I’m curious to try something else.
