2nd Grow in 40 years with "Kind" soil!

Well finally getting around to another grow😎
I’ve been reading up on the “kind” soil grows and it peaked my interest… @SilentHippie has a couple of great grows using this “kind” soil where all that is required is to keep ph around neutral…no nutrients !!!
So this grow will be 1 Gold Leaf in a grow space of about 42" x 40" x 63"
4" carbon exhaust …Quantum board 260 XW light…
Grow medium is “Kind” soil with “Promix BX” as a top layer following the instructions on the " Kind" soil web site…

So let’s get the show on the road !

The last two grows I did in Promix; loved it. It’s a little lighter than coco and I think the HP held less water than coco too. I liked that because I move my plants around daily. Or did. Now I’m doing a hydro grow.

The sweet spot for me with PH was right at 6.0 FYI.

Now just waiting for her to pop up :grin:
Keeping a steady temp is a little crazy now as we have had temps in the high 30s then the next day (like today) in the 80s. :confused:

1-24-19 update…
Well it’s been more than 5 days since planting a gold leaf seed with tail that soaked in distilled water for 3 days…in solo cups with 1/4 kind soil in the bottom then filled up with promix…lightly mist with 7.0 ph…light turned down all the way…height of light about 40" kept domes on except for 2 times a day I take them off for about 20 or so minutes…it looked like she tried to come up but then stopped…maybe to much light ??
Just planted a Super Skunk same as above…

40" turned all the way down I would venture to lean more towards not enough than too much. @MattyBear what do you start seeds at with your 260 kit?

I usually start them in a different tent, but I would think 30” dimmed would be about right for seedlings

Ok thanks guys will drop the light down to about 30" …
My thinking was that the QB light is so intense that it might be too much light…

Trying to post pictures but my internet is sooo slow this morning…

It can be, but dimmed they are reduced quite a bit.
