Help a bigginer out 😅 GG

Ahhh. Didnt see the inquiry.

Honestly the only known approved links are to amazon. Thats the only company ILGM has ‘vendorship’ or whatever with lol.

Educational, scientific links are unofficially fine because knowledge is power. Any other links I personally encourage users to break up like I did with the ‘dot’ or just take a screenshot of.

I’m not sure, but I’m guessing they may have just purchased multiple domains. Like an effort to protect their likeness.

The pucks are nice, but not their latest and greatest. The growcraft series is their current flagship line.

How are you going to ventilate the tent/closet

Wassup everyone . My phone broke so I haven’t been on much since the first day. I’m not ignoring any information so I really appreciate everyone

If anything in particular caused me to go full-on DWC it was pH. I have a Milwaukee pH controller and a peristaltic pump.[https://www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-Instruments-716690-ph-Controller/dp/B00I47XIX2/ref=sr_1_2] (https://www.amazon.com/Milwaukee-Instruments-716690-ph-Controller/dp/B00I47XIX2/ref=sr_1_2), set to keep the pH of the reservoir at 5.8.

All I have to do is keep an eye on the 10:1 diluted pH down I’m using doesn’t get too low.

BTW, on lights, I have one HLG 320XL v2 rspec which goes for around $420, which (so far) has been plenty for at least two plants. This model has three led panels, but there are other models from HLG with 1, 2, 4, and more (similar or identical) panels, so there’s a big range to choose from …

So I would have to get 2 qb 260 for 4 plants ?

Any perlite is good ?

Good question . Any tips ?

I would buy lights more towards space you are looking to grow in than plant count. Someone mentioned 4x4 tent, if you go that route and want to use qb’s, I would say two 260xl kits would do that well.

Any perlite that doesnt contain time release nutrients.

I’m not getting the tent if I don’t need to but I could still only you 4x4 of the closet space

Also these might be dumb questions , but how many seeds do I plant in each cup ? And is any water is good ?

One seed per solo cup.

Most water is fine. I enjoy knowing the numbers of said water. Ph should be between 6.3-6.8 and ppms shouldnt be over 200 if straight water. At least for me.

Distilled is awesome. As is RO. Purified is basically the same….

Rainwater is the best.

Tap works but u want to know ur numbers. Also let it sit out 24 hours to dechlorinate

How high above the cups should the lights be at first ? And should I start at 50w or more ?

Thanks !
Do I want more watts at some point or those should be good ?

How about room temp?
