Bits I need
Hi Guys
Getting my bits together for my first indoor grow
So far got
1.2x1.2x2m tent
120w dual spectrum cfl for seedlings
Led grow light says its replacement for 600w hps but draws 250w from socket so I doubt it but still seems ok
6inch Rvk fan with rhino pro filter
Dimmer for fan
Canna coco pro
Canna a&b
Canna pk 13/14
Great white powder
Temp humidity meter
Ph tester
On order is a 4x11L Wilma kit
I’m going to order some eco thrive amendment seems to come recommended
Is there anything else I may need ie calmag and ph up & down?
Cheers

Re: Bits I need
Assuming your fan is for Extract, what do you have in means of fresh intake of air?
Couple of things:-
* Nets / String for managing the grow
* Something to measure Nutrients with (scales, etc)
* Buckets and shit for mixing in
Sure there is more, and not sure what requirements you have in terms of automating the grow like timers for your lights etc.
Might also we worth getting a few spares for your Wilma up front so you can be prepared ;o)

Re: Bits I need
Thanks for the reply minty, I assumed that the air would be drawn in through on of the lower vents?
Got syringes and jugs for measuring nutes, will get a few buckets, will look into the nets have all manner of strings

Re: Bits I need
Yeah, PH down is a good idea.
i doubt youll need the ecothrive stuff tbh. calmag wont be a back idea to have on hand.
the 250w will probably be under powered for finishing flower in 1.2x 1.2. it could be worth looking at doubling that up
also the mixing buckets are a good shout as well as an EC meter

Re: Bits I need
For my first indoor I was thinking of only running 2 plants in the Wilma so do you think the 250w would be enough for that?, also I could run the 120w dual spectrum cfl along side the led for extra light?, moving forward an invisible sun is on the cards.

Re: Bits I need
Keeno did a good post about fans i.e. intake vs extract etc and loads of other useful information. Will see if I can find it again.

Get yourself a variac rather than a dimmer. More expensive, but will work out cheaper in the long run.
