I use the standard 18/6 and others 12/12. Both will work. 12/12 will save your wallet a little.
Air flow isn’t critical during the seedling stage, as they do not require much. High Humidity is more important at this stage.
For what specifically? Air flow should be minimal.
80°F 90%RH are decent numbers I strive for. I wouldn’t go under 70° for seedlings, but they will survive.
Loose lips… tell no one. In fact that’s why my screen name is what it is… but it wasn’t illegal, just highly stigmatized. The forum is a safe outlet here, and we don’t talk about fight club outside of fight club…
Jacks nutrients using the 3-2-1 recipe is safe for seedlings. If you are using other nutrients I would post them here before using, and any of us community members will be happy to assist you if I don’t know, or I’m not online.
The only thing I can add is that when you begin feeding is dependent on the type of grow media you are using. Coco should be fed from the start. wrt to soils, most of them have sufficient nutrients for the first 4 to 6 weeks. It isn’t necessary to feed a seedling at all until the cotyledon leaves are gone. The cotyledons are the first set of little round leaves that the plant produces. They contain sufficient nutrients for the plant for the first several days.
Lots of good advice here for sure. [quote=“Shattershard, post:1, topic:108115”]
5) What are the most common

If your asking what are the ways someone can get caught growing is several.
Don’t tell anyone period. When growing even your close friends love to brag to others that they seen beautiful plants. Also if outside aroma can be noticed in some stages of the grow. If inside make sure to use a carbon filter on your in-line fan that moves air through you grow space. Growing is so enjoyable and addictive you can’t help but want to include others to show off those big beautiful nugs. That’s risky for sure.
They’ve pretty much got you covered. Keep it simple. Don’t over love them with nutrients and stuff. Good lighting goes a long ways. It’s hard to control humidity and temp sometimes. Keep temps 75 to 80 if possible with lights on. Lights 18/6 during veg. Here’s what is do that works for me.
When seedling is as wide as the cup, transplant into pot of happy frog mixed with perlite, worm castings, a little blood and bone meal, and fox farm fruit and flower 4-9-3 per the instructions on the package. Then top dress with the fruit and flower after 6 weeks, then once a month after that. I use a little kelp me kelp you during veg. I also use recharge occasionally to keep the microbes healthy.
1- 14-8 if pushing light 16-8 if not. Most should work shouldn’t be a real issue
2- Plants no like wind or heat building up, extract so it’s not windy or constantly getting too hot. Ignore humidity plants can adjust for that just like outdoors, kind of had a few hundred million years to perfect we make a mountain out of that mole hill.
3- Can find standard min max by Google search
4- Ignore humidity, do well at most temps if everything else is on point. Light levels probably need a mention most LEDs give clear distances for stages.
5- Talking about or showing your grow. No one should know this isn’t a garden contest but a drug business. Loose lips sink ships as the saying goes.
6-I start in biobizz allmix or shop multi purpose, can add a dose at the start but either way you need to really wait till they have used what’s in the medium and most will give you a guideline in weeks before you even need to worry about nutrients… if you start in a small pot and report you might avoid them till flowering.
