Grow lights

Thanks Chris👍🏾

I have some recommended LED grow lights with a 5x5 flowering coverage area listed here: https://www.mrgrowit.com/post/best-led-grow-lights-5x5-coverage-area Although, I do need to update this list for 2022.

With auto flower and photo period plants I only feed bloom nutrients. With the photo. I up pot about every 3 weeks. From 1/2 gallon to 2 gallon then 3 weeks later to 5 gallon. Two weeks or so after that I move them to flower. Then I start feeding flora flex bloom nutrients. This has worked well for me.

These are autos that only get nutrients in bloom. I am also using spider farmer lights and they have been great so far. Good luck and happy growing.

Sounds like they are photos so nutrients are gonna depend on how long you keep it in veg. with autoflowers they are usually going in to flower automatically around week 4 so you can get away with just bloom nutrients. I lot of people will use general hydroponics trio but i've never personally used them. I can vouch for floraflex and dutchpro nutrients. the floraflex is very simple just mix 2 part powder nutes and dutch pro is bottles but you can get their starter kit with some extra additives that will last you a while (great customer services).

I have some white widow seeds /bubba kush seeds / durban poison seeds/etc

im going to chose one strain to work with first as my first time starting with a two plant grow so I don’t be over work for my first time

If you're using fox farm ocean forest soil you can give only water for the first few weeks just make sure to keep an eye on the run off. Recharge is more of a microbial boost to your soil than a nutrient, it will help introduce microbial life to the soil that will break down the organic nutes in the soil to plant form. I would mix a little bit into a gallon once every 2 weeks starting around week 2. some people use mykos, great white, ect when transplanting to boost root development but I just plant the seed in its final pot and they do fine.

I have another question? Ihave fox farm soil and I’m looking at nutrients to start me off for the first time ! but it’s so may products that I’m hesitant. is recharge good for starting the seedling……I’m open for help even though I watched lots of Chis and others videos I’m more so wanting that first Week and all the way up to veg help

you can also take a look at these 2 channels on youtube. They review the light and test the par to ensure it is what the company says and cover a lot of the good budget lights.

I believe they are all made on the same frame and you can buy the additional led bars later on.

If you like the more DIY approach you should check out chilled tech. They have DIY kits of their lights that allow you to save a few hundred dollars.

Nice grow one of these days I could show you what I’ve done ! I’m trying to stay under 700 for my first lights . HLG 600 Expensive

I grow in a 5x5 with 1 HLG 600 R spec on a light mover so I don’t have any hot spots, I am currently running 12 plants and approximately 5 different strains. Tents full and and the girls are happy…

I guess it would really depend on your budget and if you a trying to utilize every sqft of the 5x5
