    Just finished setting up my new grow. WHITE WIDOWS!

    Setup:
    - 4ft (120cm) by 3ft (90cm) tent.
    - 2x 12.6gal (10 liter) buckets.
    - Combi temp/humidity sensor dangling in middle of tent for reading canopy stats. Right now i'm at 28c in the tent at 40% humidity. Humidity should rise once transpiration starts. Or else i'll put a humidifier in.
    - Temp sensor in one of the buckets checking water temp, right now its 17.2c but should rise quickly (I just filled it).
    - Two mars hydro 300w lights, together pulling 250w from the wall. But i'm upgrading to some powerful cobs before I go into flower.

    Right now its only water in those buckets PH to 5.6-5.8 at around 250ppm (470μS). My general hydroponics 3 part nutes doesn't come until tomorrow :(

    The plants were transplanted from solo cups full of soil into this system so the roots were already quite long. There is a few roots dangling into the water already.

    I assume they will be fine until I can add nutes tomorrow?

    Cheers. Pics are in spoiler below!

  3. What's your initial cost set up?

    I mean other than the air pump, buckets, net cups and clay pebbles. I had all this equipment already. Had the temp/humidity sensors from when I used to grow shrooms. And I had the tent/lights from my last ganja grow in soil. So I have no clue how much it cost anymore.

    Good news is I just got my general hydroponics nutes. About to dose now!

    EDIT: Got between 500-600 ppm (1000μS) in each of my buckets now. Should be good to grow. Noticed since last night, having no nutrients has caused my plants to yellow slightly. Hopefully they recover.
