So, I've decided to start a grow journal since RIU has helped me out soooo much, so far. Hope you enjoy. Questions, comments are welcome.


Strains:
- (seed) G13 Labs,"Pure Power Fem."
- (seed) Barneys Farm,"Blue Cheese Fem." .
- (seed) World of Seeds, (Medical Collection) "Northern Lights xBig Bud Fem. "
- (seed) World of Seeds "Afghan Kush Fem."
- (seed) G13 Labs,"Northern Lights X Skunk Fem."
- (seed) Paradise Seeds, "White Berry Fem."
- (clone) Greenhouse, "NL5xHaze mist Fem."
- (clone) Greenhouse, "Strawberry haze Fem."
- (mother) Sensi seeds, "Big Bud Fem.,"
- (mother) Greenhouse, "Trainwreck Fem."

I've been growing the Big Bud, Trainwreck (hince) mothers. I currently have the NL5xHM & Strawberry Haze in Bloom (hince) clones. I've recently received my order from the Attitude (hince) seeds.


Seedling care/method:
...I placed the seedlings in "rapid rooters", soaked with RO H2O, placed on a seedling heating pad and put them under a humidity dome. All but the white berry were cracked within 2 days. Wisely, I ordered 2 of each seed, just in case something like this was to happen. The white berry is now on her way, just a few days behind. I planted in Happy Frog....They were placed under 2x 4ft. 40w cool white flos, 24/0 lighting. These will all be mothers and transplanted into Happy Frog or Fox Farm's Ocean Forest (grow big & cal./mag fertz.)

Clone care/method:
...I use an ezcloner w/ simple tap water ph balanced @ 6.0, keeping res. temps around 70. After 10 days they're ready for veg. I use one single 40 w cool white flo,24/0 lighting

I Donot use rockwool cubes, or anything of the sort @ this point like many others do. I simply transplant directly into clay pebbles (hydroton)....saves $$$ :hump:



My Veg Setup:
- 8 x 5700k cfl's
- 72, 3 in. netted pots
- clay pebbles for medium (hydroton)
- 3x3 flood bed (ebb N' flow) w/ 25 gal. res.
- Flora micro, flora bloom (lucas formula), ph down, cal./mag.
- 18/6 lighting

My Bloom Setup:
- 2 x 600 HPS (air cooled hoods) w/ digital ballast, hortilux bulbs
- Airtight, 7ft x 8ft x 7ft space
- double hose a/c unit (temps range 70 - 85F)
- Each light will have a 3x3 flood bed (ebb N' flow) w/ 25 gallons res.
- I will be using General Hydroponics - FloraMicro, and FloraBloom (Lucas Formula), Cal./mag., pH down, RO water & tap (pH range 5.5 - 6.o)
- 36, 6 in. x 6 in. square pots(each table)
- I will be using a Greenair CD-6LP co2 burner w/ monitor. The co2 will be @ 1500ppm all times during bloom.
- I'll be running a sulpher burner 3 times, 1/2 hour each burn during the dark photo period.
- I'll be running a dehumidifer 1/2 hour on, 1/2 off (constant cycle, humidity range 30 - 50%)
- and ofcouse a huge oscillating fan 24/0

...these were tripped @ 8 inches, put in one gallon bags of FFOF, under 2 600watt HPS (hortliux) Organic teas for bloom fertz = (Seabird guano, bat guano, kelp, molesses, earthworm casting) I fertlized @ wk#3-6, once weekly.

...lollipop'd @ wk#2, fan leaves removed @ wk# 5. No co2, fresh air only. Yielded 1.5 lbs. dry.

...I'd wouldn't suggest anyone doing a SOG w/ soil as I have here, it was a full time job! LOL Never again!

Hey whats up trichlone fiend, I've been watching this thread closely and what you are doing looks amazing. I bought some seeds and I wanted to ask you about your germination method. The question is do you use the the same method for all your seeds or strains? I was asking because these were expensive and I want them to sprout. I just wanted to add that you are doing a great job, I love this Thread. thanks for the pics.
