hello,

So, this is my second run. My first being: Black widow x3, Chrystal x2, Bcn Diesel, Motavation, & Mataro blue.
They turned out beautiful, thanks to RIU's forums users, Pato @ Kannabia (huge help and awesome genetics) seeds, and subcool @TGA.
I would not have been able to pull that off as successfully as i did. Thank you.

For those that care i am a card holder, but that does not effect my agendas only helps.

Below I will list the strains and equipment to be used on this up-and-coming run.
I will also be doing an experiment to see if the Fox Farms line up is better then the Advance Nutrients line or the other way around. there will be several plants that get smaller portions of both the FF & AN. very curious

I will include a plethora of pictures as the new grow expands and evolves. as well as tips i have learned, and loads of babbling. I will try to gather good info as to help end all this misinformation out there. and, there is a ton of it. i will also do lots of experimenting with lst, fiming, mini scrog, & etc....

I am open to comments and suggestions, sometimes random banter. but, lets not get too cathartic or bitchy unless it's your cervical mucus that stained my sheets.


Anyway, the strains:

Amnesia Haze x1
Super Silver Haze x3
Super Lemon Haze x2
Vortex x4
Kaboom x1
Vanilla Kush x2
White Domina x1
La Blanka x1
Smile x1
Black Widow x2
Queens Kush x1
Should find some good mothers. The breeders for the above are: Green house seeds, Kannabia seeds, TGA Subcool seeds, Barney's Farm, Mr.Nice Guy, & Royal Queen seeds. all of the beans came through the attitude.

Soil & Nutrients
(There will be 3 feeding schedules made up..ie, fox far, Advance n.)

A blend of FF Ocean Forest, FF Happy Frog, Perlite, bennifical fungi, bacteria, & bricked coconut shells that are broken down.

Big Bloom - will be mixed in all 3 feeding schedules. i love this stuff.
Grow Big - FF
Tiger Bloom -FF
root drench -FF (the name is something like that)
Mag/cal -GH to be used with FF base
Cha Ching -FF
Micro bloom- EJ
Sensi Grow A&B -AN
Sensi Bloom A&B -AN
Nirvana -AN used in all 3 this stuff is groovy in its own right.
Big Bud -AN
Overdrive -AN
Molasses - to be used in all, for the microbes and bacteria

Yeah, i know its a lot of crap. now, the stuff:

150w hps
400w mh/hps
1000w mh/hps air cooled w/inline fans
3 x 50w 4ft t5 ho sun strips 65k
24x 42w 55-65k cfls
16x 42w 27-36k cfls
4x 18' t8's
3 x uvb lights for flowering 42w with 10% each uvb
fans and mylar galore

From seed it will go 24/0 - 20/4 - 18/6 - 12/12 - 11/12 - 10.5/12.5 (The last two are for more Sativa like strains)

We shall see how many make it through on my hunt for a few good moms.
ill update often and post many pictures and other mildly relevant crap. Feel free to ask anything, or whatever really.

I will add set up plans and the first set of pictures very soon.
Till then keep smokin

Still getting stuff set up. i have read with inline fans that it is better to have the air pull through. but i worry that the heat may shorten the fans life. is there truth in this? if so
i may as well have it blow. ideas?


Will be set up very soon. just a little rearranging and hanging.

Subscribed. I wouldn't worry about the fan. I think vortex are good to 180 f, if your air is that warm you got other problems lol

I am two days behind schedule, but things should be at 100% tomorrow. really need to lay off the klonopins and xanys.....:eyesmoke:

still haven't decided between blowing and pulling (inline fans) air. i have two so maybe both. even if physics says pulling is better, Im curious about the heat the fans motor will be sucking and if it will prematurely fail due to that. de-ja-vu


new mind altering pics, bud porn, and even some bud s&m. thees girls are gonna get real dirty. :clap:

one last thing before Danzig spits some blood around to clean the space of unwanted evil energy. am i demon? he sure is not.
:leaf::leaf::leaf:
Anyway, is a 150w hps, 12 cfls, & 2 X 50W T8'S enough to keep three or four moms going? The moms don't really need to be very large. their offspring will be tho :-P
i want to put my 400w in with my 1000w & t5 strips.
any thoughts?

Sounds like more then enough. I keep 2 medium sized mothers in 2 gal smartpots with hydroton/rw chunks under 2x85 watt cfls. Water them like half a gal between the two every other day. Works out fine for me. You prob can just use the t8s on top and cfls around and b perfect, skip the 150hps imo.

everything is about ready. need to finish the ducting. loads of pics coming up. on a side note, the mataro blue is doing well. 27 days in to 12/12 (attitude gave me a reg when i was told it was an auto, a bit of a surprise if you ask me.)

I just popped a couple VK today... the VKs are being a little stubborn. Glad to hear your starting to run. I want to compare our VKs growth. I'm using only CFLs and it will being interesting to see the difference.
