A few questions

[MathewGrows]

Hey!
So I got a few questions:
- For soil or coco, how do you test the ppm's?
- I have a 24x24x64 Grow tent. What kind of lights, filter, and fans do I need?
- I've read some post on refilling nutes everyday in DWC but I'm kinda confused on the measurements can someone clear or explain a little more? (I have two 3 gallon totes, a 10-12 gallon, and a 18 if that helps)
- What's the difference between a veg light and a flower light?

Damn bro, you know I have no problem helping out the newbs, but some members might not want to answer such "green" questions. You should read the stickies and grow guides to get a better understanding of the whole process.

Don't mean to sound rude, but you're kinda asking for someone to tell you everything...

Gotta do some reading and more reading and when you're done with that... Read some more.

Im working on it and no problem I totally understand

1. Soil vs coco. This is gonna be up to you and could start a pissing match. Me personally, I like roots organic original soil(has coco in it)

2. Light and fan. I would try to get that Apollo 400 watt digital ballast. You can dial it down to 75%(300w) or 50%(200w) if temps are an issue

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B004YXDHX6/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?qid=1438273038&sr=8-1&pi=AC_SY200_QL40&keywords=400+watt+grow+light&dpPl=1&dpID=5185XGcOJ-L&ref=plSrch
They also have 4" or 6" fan filter combos you can look at.

3. Dwc. I would figure out if you want to do dwc or soil/soilless first. I wouldn't try both for my first go around. Pick one or the other.

4. Veg light/flower light. For vegging you want a more blue spectrum and have it on either 24 hours a day or 18 on 6 off (18/6)
For flower you want a more red spectrum and light schedule of 12 on 12 off(12/12) to induce flowering

I hope this points you in the right direction. I would still read, read, read



Good luck and happy growing

I appreciate it @Gary Goodson. I'm learning a lot and I'll keep reading!
