Hi everyone, I started this post because my very first grow is Winding down, I'm watching her flower and I know it isn't much long. With this grow I feel in love with this hobby and growing. On a deep level.
Train wreck from Humboldt seed company ill never forget since it's my very first Experience with this.
Through the months I learned alot and meet some amazing people and saw what can be done out there.
So the whole time I've been. Keeping notes and getting an idea on putting something together for the next grow and see what can be accomplished while also having the Honor inability to watch them grow..
I already have a strains list.
This round I want to do 8-10 plants. I going with the hydro set up with the buckets and water pump. I've seen what it can do..
I'd appreciate any ideas and be honored with the suggestions. Again I'm still very new. And with all the Products I've seen used and the AMAZING outs comes.
I'm so excited to see what this journey will bring. I love putting the work in, doing the Research and able to be Patient and not rush the buying of Products or am not to eager to rush the process of the plants life..I truly enjoy and love watching the grow and how they evolved.
Does anyone have ideas, suggestions or input on setting up an Affordable tent ..space isn't an issue.
I'm not the type to cut corners but expect a amazing out come..
I've been looking at tents, complete tents , individual lights, package deals ect.
Ive looked at posts, comments , and reviews.
I have an idea where I'd going with this idea and hobby. But I've read so many great ideas and read some HELPFUL comments on here. And also see great resources shares. So that why I posted this here. I'd be honored to get some Advice on this setup also this whole hobby means alot to me all together so I want to put Thought and positive energy into it and enjoy every minute of the Process and then sit back and be proud of the out come and share the fruits of the labor with my guys.
Willing and have problems with doing 4-6 plants , it's more then enough ..But like I said with all the amazing plants and setups I want to try so much that's why I said 8-10 plants..but no more then 10..

I'd personally recommend getting more general experience under your belt before just diving into hydro. I don't regret doing hydro in DWC, but don't think I care to do it again. I would probably recommend starting off with just one or two buckets until you get a feel for it. If done even close to correctly, you can get some ridiculous growth in DWC, so whatever room you think you'll need might not actually be enough.

I look at it as an experiment. I ran my tent for two weeks to get a handle on the environmental conditions. Start small build up your experience.
I went with the Vivosun stuff as I enjoy the ability to monitor from a distance. I did pick up an infinity outlet controller but it only works on bluetooth.
Read a pile of books, have a consultant have an excellent seed source.
But you will find gardening is very much like the internet where everyone has an opinion and a different way of doing things.

So I try to absorb all the information available and sort though to find what will work with my conditions. Much like running a race car the conditions at the track at every event is different, so you need to master the environment you are exposed to.....

Forgot to say.

You will find more success stories than failure ones. People don't have a tendency to promote their own failures more to talk about successes.
Regularly visit a hydro store here on LI and I spend much time reading the labels there is a lot of hype out there. Lots of claims to sort through.

One thing I have found out about successful gardeners they don't share all the secrets, much like race engineers somethings you have to learn on your own.
