@Pedrosbenny: thanks for the appreciation and for stopping by.
@kw31: thanks for the information. I think I will do like you: lower down the fan a little bit.

@kw31: [FONT=&quot]I’ve been thinking and I’ll rise up the fan because, watching your thread, I saw you have a small fan (18 cm (7”)). But my fan has 30 cm (12”) and if I put to blow right to the plants it will dry out the leaves for sure because the distance between the fan and the plants is short – just 15 to 40 cm (6 to 16”).

[FONT=&quot] Or maybe somebody can tell me if my thinking is right or wrong.
Thanks.

I can't believe how huge your plants were at 34 days in Veg!!! Makes me go a bit more insanse each time I see these sorts of veg. Or even some of the other things like the branching being so good.

I have 10 weeks veg right now & am still not even close to that size. I think I may need a lot more experience. I wonder if Hydro is that much more efficient.

Peace.

@ Learningfirst: thanks and tomorrow I will tell you my growing technique (just between us - I don't use any techniques). Sorry, but today I don't have time:clock watch:

@ Learningfirst: This is how I grew these plants:
I put 3 feminized seed in cotton wool (for me it works 100%) to germinate. After they germinate I put them in regular soil (mostly peat, with PH 6.5 – 7). They come out on 1st of May (I count from that day). After 2 weeks I realize that I forgot to mix the soil with Soil Plus¹ (100 g to 10 liter – 3.5 oz to 2.25 gallon). I put on the soil and I pour tap water on (I always use tap water after I leave to stay for 24 hours). In vegetative grow I used some nutrient called Valentine² only twice (week 4 and 5). In week 5 I put more soil mixed with Soil Plus (5 liter in the 25 liter pots and 10 liter in the 35 liter pot – 1.15 gallon in the 5.5 gallon pots and 2.25 gallon in the 8 gallon pot). After 35 days I flip them to 12/12. In flowering time I use Ferticare15-30-15³. I never use the schedule for nutrients. I use them approximately (ex. I have Ferticare in 2 kg bag – 4.4 pound and the producer recommendation was to use 0.1-0.2% and I put one coffee spoon to a 2 liter – 0.5 gallon bottle). I always look the plant – when the top leaves becomes too dark I stop to use nutrient until I see that the lower leaves start to yellow. I water each time with 2 liter – 0.5 gallon of water when the hygrometer drop below 3 (1 to 3 dry, 4 to 7 moist and 8 to 10 wet). In week 3 of flowering I cut off the lower branches.
This is my way but I’m not sure if this is the right way.

I forgot - I never transplanted them.

Air: First I used a 14w – 10 cm (4”) – 95 m³/h (125 yd³/h) exhaust fan and a 2000w heating fan (15w when it blows cold air). When the outdoor temperature was 35-36ºC (95-97K) the indoor temperature rise up to 38ºC (100K). I changed the exhaust fan with a new one 16w – 12.5 cm (5”) – 180 m³/h (235 yd³/h) and I put a 40w – 30 cm (12”) fan so now the maximum temperature is 32ºC (90K). I know it’s a little bit high but is acceptable.

¹ Soil Plus (solid): N – 1.35%, P – 0.2%, K – 1.9%, Mg – 0.6%, Cu – 0.002%, Fe – 0.151%, Mn – 0.021%, Zn – 0.018%, Ca, B, Mo, S, Ni + biostimulators, multivitamins, organic enzymes and vegetable amino acids.
² Valentine (liquid): N – 20%, P2O5 – 5%, K2O – 10%, MgO – 2%, B – 0.01%, Cu – 0.02%, Fe – 0.05%, Mn – 0.05%, Mo – 0.001%, Zn – 0.02%.
³ Ferticare (solid): N – 15%, P2O5 – 30%, K2O – 15%, MgO – 2.5%, SO3 – 5%, B – 0.02%, Cu – 0.01%, Fe – 0.1%, Mn – 0.1%, Mo – 0.002%, Zn – 0.01%.

im also currently doing my first grow in 250w hps! sativa dominant.

it's been a week since germination and 3 days since they were under hps.. so basically they are 10 days old and they still have their cottyledon! I hope im just paranoid or over thinking things

I wonder.. is this how first time growers feel? i mean like checking/peeping every hour, never ending light height adjustment, watering.. etc,
whew. i agree with @learning, your growth is fast! by the way what's your room temp?

congrats and thanks for sharing your experience:tiphat:

@ bromhexine: thanks for the appreciation and for stopping by.
@ sundancertip: thanks and I updated my grow story with the air section. And yes, mostly the first time growers are suffering from "catastrophization" but you will see that finally everything will be OK!
