    I've been considering keeping an online journal of my first grow, and after spending hours reading all the advice given in these threads, I thought I'd go for it. Unfortunately, I am already at day 40 (from seed), so this is where I will start off at. If anyone has questions about the first month, please feel free to ask!

    Here is the basic info:

    SEEDS: 2x Barney's Tangerine Dream (feminized); 1x Barney's LSD (feminized); and 2x Critical Super Silver Haze (feminized). I bought them online from Herbie's Head Shop. They shipped the next day and arrived here in U.S. Midwest in just over a week. Was very happy with the purchase, price, and speed.

    TENT: I use the Secret Jardin DR90T as my grow tent. The upper tent will eventually be for clones, but I'm not too worried about that just yet.


    LIGHTING: I have two Sunshine Systems GrowPanel 45's as my lighting for the main tent. I have one more to use for the top/cloning tent. These are supposed to be multi-spectrum lights, but they do not give the specs on it.

    As I get closer to flowering, I am debating between adding CFL's vs T5 tubes to fill in the sides of the plants since the LED does not penetrate too well. I posted a question on this in another room.

    ODOR CONTROL: 4" 155CFM Can Fan with the Can-9000 Carbon filter w/ prefilter.

    SOIL: I use 3 gallon containers with two parts Fox Farm Ocean Forest soil mixed with 1 part perlite.

    NUTRIENTS/FEEDING: I follow the full line of Fox Farm and follow their feeding schedule. I use Big Boom, Grow Big, Tiger Bloom, Kangaroots, Microbe Brew, and soon will be adding Open Sesame, Beastie Bloomz, and ChaChing. I am about to do my first flush with Sledgehammer. I have not had a PH problem yet, but plan on purchasing Earth Juice to adjust the PH.

    PH METER: I chose the basic Hanna Checker. I know, it does not do PPM or EC.

    THERMOMETER/HUMIDITY MONITOR: [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Acu-Rite-Indoor-Humidity-Monitor/dp/B0013BKDO8"]AcuRite 00613[/ame] (Sorry for the Amazon link)

    HUMIDIFIER: Hunter Cool Mist 36316

    This is the runt of the 4 plants I have. It is finally catching up, but is still smaller than all the others.

  6. Well, I am about to begin flowering in just a few more days. I added 2x 68w CFLs to my tent today. I've been reading that the extra 2700k colored light will help the buds a lot. Hey, it's another 8,400 lumens, so it can't hurt!

    Pictures are coming soon, but they are looking beautiful!
     
  7. Whoo hoo! Day 50 from seed, and ready for flowering. Changing light cycle today to 12/12. Here are some pictures. Enjoy! Comments welcome!
