Getting ready for 1st grow, any advice appreciated.

[JcV7]

Cannabis user for many years and it is time to finally learn how to grow this beautiful plant. Been lurking this forum and watching youtube videos for a couple months. The following is what I chose to go with for my set up which will be located in my basement in northern CA.

60x60x80 Apollo grow tent
2 Tasty LED t4-1750 w/reflectors
1 Quantum Bad Boy T5 4ft 6 bulb fixture with Quantum veg and flower bulbs
6in intake fan with phresh filter
6 inch ventilation fan with carbon filter
5 3 gallon smart pots
3 5 gallon smart pots, gonna try both sizes to see what provides best results
All Canna Coco products with 3 50L bags, AB nutes, Rhyzo, cannazym, and pk 13/14
Auto fem THC BOMB from Bomb Seeds
Auto fem Six Shooter from Fast Buds both purchased from Dr. Chronic seedbank
PH pen
Wireless temp and humidity monitoring through phone via some stuff off Amazon.

Plan on germinating in paper towel and then transplanting to pots. Watering once a day first week and then twice a day after following nute schedule directly from Canna Coco.

What am I forgetting? What will I fuck up? Canna guy says I don't need cal mag if nutes done right, everyone else says calmag needed for sure with LEDs and coco? Thanks everyone for their time!

Calmag issues are common to LED, but a bag of Epsom salt will do the trick. I would skip the intake fan but keep the filter. Passive may be fine.

This may be a dumb question but don't I need that to pull the fresh air from the outside through filter?

 

[JuanCarlos]

No, it's not a must, but you can filter the incoming air.

Check my journal. I just compleated a rebuild of my exaust. I built my own intake filter, no intake fan. I grow coco peralite. Leds cause. Cal mag issues, so does coco coir.
