Sara
At the end of the day this plant was finally uncurling a little bit, but I'm not convinced things are getting better yet. I'm hoping by 9 tonight when the lights turn on that she'll be noticeably better. With the fresh soil and fertilizer I hope she'll be happy. Sara was always hard to please, but once
She was a sexy feral cat that you didn't wanna tame. She was wild and free, but there was a dangerous glint in her eye. Her spirit danced like a wild fire that you wanted to touch even though it was dangerous. Maybe if I keep that in mind I can figure out how to make her happy and give her what she needs to stop curling. Cause love isn't enough.
Edmonda
This plant has the potential to be something really special. She is growing so fast that she could be done weeks before the others. I thought she was a runt but it might just be a really indica leaning expression. I hear variation is really high with SSH, so it's possible to get a lot of different phenos. I think I might have gotten this 'SOG cut' I've been hearing about. If it grows out to only 1.5-2ft it would be perfect for that octagon or flooded tube setup I've been looking at. She has the most trich development, the tightest internodes, and long sexy stigmas. She's bursting with stigmas. I really hope it grows into a 2ft cola so I can have the option to SOG, which tbh, I've been seriously looking at.
Kev's Bitch
Finally my favorite. Kev's Bitch. She really is a stunner that one. Big green leafs that show no signs of defs or other problems. She's resilient and resistant to bugs. She keeps growing even though I don't have her in the best soil possible. She gives me no problems and all she wants to do is give. I can't wait to clone this one. I'm hoping this one is the perfect marriage of Haze/Indica qualities.
Tea Bucket
I've been having trouble getting enough cash to buy quality nutrients so I had to resort to making my own tea. I used some 'specially composted' OMRI approve chicken manure and steer manure in the 'tea bag' (sock). I couldn't find EWC at Homedepot or Lowes. In the water was b-1, algen extract, roots excellurator, brown sugar syrup and about a half a cup of urine. I used tap water that came out at 650 ppm and after 24 hours, the ppm were 1600. I dilluted it by half, and tested it on my males.
I made the brewer out of a sports cooler, a water pump and a piece of tubing. Aerated by falling back into the cooler.
Atmosphere control
After I moved the grow into the corner of the bathroom, the dynamics of the atmosphere changed. The temp went up and the humidity went down. Being sativas, I need a bit of humidity, so I had to figure this out. After some different tests, checking what the temps were with the CFL's off, and the door open, and exhaust off, or on....etc. I ended up turning the blower back around so that it was sucking hot air out of the room instead of blowing cool air into it. Then I extended the vent to the shower where it could be more effective. THEN I cleaned and fixed up the little fan cause I couldn't afford the new one. Turns out it just needed more grease on the motor, but I didn't have any grease so I used olive oil. Runs like a swiss clock now lol. Gotta love ghetto cures. I put the fan under the HPS again instead of blowing over the garden. There was a cover on the air conditioner that I took of that was blocking air more than it was directing it. I also took out the CFL's because the didn't really seem to help at all. If anything growth has slowed a little since I added them. The combination of all these things dropped the temperature by 6 degrees from 88F to 82F and raised the humidity from 27% to 32%
Neville's Haze
Nevil's Haze is one of the plants that's on my bucket list. I have to grow this before I die. I've heard crazy stories about NH smoke and the trappy qualities of it. I have to experience this for myself. I heard the high from some good NH is like getting cracked with an electric whip. I'm down...
Plushberry
I hear the plushberry has a smell like no other, and that the high is out of this world. Plus with the possibility of a purple pheno, this has some serious cash crop potential, which I need. I've been wanting to grow a TGA strain for the longest time but haven't gotten around to it. I'm glad and grateful to be getting the chance soon.
Dreamtime
If you've been meaning to pick up some MNS strains, get over to MNS Auctions. Shanti opened it up to clear stock and hes auctioning off seeds away pretty cheap. I got these Dreamtime for 7 euros. 15 seeds for $10. Can't beat that. I've been interested in Dreamtime since I followed this guy's grow. It's a mix of Afghani, Haze, Northern Lights and Skunk varieties, landraces, side and unfinished projects, plus possibly, seeds from their normal list. Check out these 4 phenos out of a pack of Dreamtime. #10 is the best IMO.
