Hey man don't over think this. Don't fry those little seedlings if they sprout. Read about just basic stuff on your first grow, folks make this too stupid scientific. A low wattage CFL is all seedling needs for first wk or two. If you can make it past 2wks great. But you need to read up on seedlings it's all here under turtorials.

I use hygrometers sitting on top of the soil mix or resting on top of two bags that are close to each other. One was cheap from amazon, the other is the one I used to dry my first harvest. I haven't started weed in cups yet but with herbs I only used water, it didn't take that long for them to be root bound. Watch them, if you see a deficiency it's often cal-mag that's needed first. Not sure of your lights/intensity or strain you're starting. Sounds like you have a cannabis grow in progress, or other plants already growing in your tent?

In plastic cups....
I try and have a light directly over all of my plants.. so if I was to take the temperature reading I would have a gauge at the plants top height which would be under direct light.. is this right or OK.

When starting with seedlings and clones in pottingmix that has no added nutrients except for perlite, is it ok to use a 1part hydro nutrient mixed in water from day one b4 the roots have developed? Iast time I done this with clones i used only water until the roots developed but that took 3to4weeks..........
Also I have 3 temperature gauges in tent, 1 directly under lights, 2on front+back tent sides or 3 have different readings, which one do I follow.

Hello Nebula Haze!
Ive been following your grow with Spyder Farmer vs Mars Hydro LEDs and am anxiously awaiting the final results.
I had decided to purchase the Mars Hydro but came across a brand MixJoy which uses the same components ( Samsung LEDs etc) but is controllable from iPhone via Bluetooth app.
I went ahead and purchased the Mixjoy GL4000s to replace my blurple LEDs for a 4x4 grow tent. This light is powerful and I have to monitor the distance daily for light burn but thus far my plants Gorilla Glue #4 and Barney’s Farm Acapulco Gold are chugging right along. See pic, entering 2nd week of 12-12 schedule. Thanx for your advice and expertise!

My biggest question is about humidity and curing. I can’t get it through my head for whatever reason.
At what humidity is it best to move the bud into a jar for curing? I’ll have a hygrometer in the jar with bud to see where it’s at. Usually > 62% I’ll let it air out another day until it’s 60% @ 75 degrees. Then I’ll start burping containers and let it settle to 58% with Boveda.
Am I on the right track? By-Tor and I would like to know.

I'm grateful for the answers and info I find online about my question, but, I still can't seem to get a consistent answer in terms of desiccant to seed ratio when storing seeds in the freezer. Approximately, how many desiccant balls to how many seeds? Also, if you have too many seeds, do you run the risk of overdrying them in the freezer? Also I realize that different well-functioning freezers my have different levels of humidity. How does one account for that or is that an issue provided the freezer works well? (i.e.; not too humid/frosted over) Thanks!

How are your relatives, wife/girlfriend usually react on growing? Do they support you? Did you hide the fact of growing from them?
