k guys n gals i wanted to go ahead and make a journal entry for ppl to observe my 2nd official grow. My first grow was actually only a flowering grow, got like 10 grams off it dried using 3 cfls's, it was alright .
So i consider this my first real "good" (hopefully) grow, ive done lots of research online and i think i can do it now, Also if it doesnt work out as well as i hoped then at least i learn a thing or two lol. I also wanted to make this journal so it can push me to really try and make this grow work out, any feedback will be much appreciated.
But here's what i have as a set up....
Three 26watt cfl 6500k.... 2 pack $8?,, single for $5
150w hps from Sun System, ebay price... $78 bucks with free shipping
small corner table to place pots on...Free
cardboard boxes to elevate my plants closer to lights.... FRee
Cool Breeze standing fan left on low for air circulation and temperature controll.. FREE
Power strip $5?
Aquarium Timer bought from petco... $10
Reptile thermometer from a petstore $5
Happy frog potting soil... $25 shipping added to price.
cfl sockets (2 were from lamps from a petshop i use to use with my reptiles i had/have $10each) and bought another desk clamp light from walmart also $10
Nutrients: Grow big for veg.. $15
For flowering..
open sesame..$30
Beastie Bloomz..$30
Cha Ching.. $30
Total Spent on supplies.... about $250 (not including wat i alredy had)
Im growing 3 bagseed plants ATM, i will prolly end up with 2 or maybe 1 plant depending how big it gets when im in flowering and i have 3 because i want more chances of females.
pics have been attached..
shot with a 5.1 mega pixel camera not the best quality..
Ive been vegging the plant in the white clay pot for about 3 and a half weeks, it grew slow at first but now it is starting to take off, i had it in a smaller pot and had to transplant again so i decided to put it in the final grow container if it is a female that is to early to tell still, she went thru a small transplant shock, no biggie shes starting to perk up again, and also she does have like 2 deformed leaves other than that leaves are green and healthy no yellowing what so ever.. used GB twice alredy
The second one is about a week and a half old (the one in the big plastic pot) that one is really taking off great, that was my expiremental one, i wanted to see if i could start the seedling then put it in its final grow container and compare the results to my older one in the clay pot and its almost bigger than it alredy! no nutrients used it, im waiting till i hit the 2 week mark then gonna use GB at about less than half strength, im also going to LST this one here when it gets a bit taller.
the third one i might just give it to a friend so im not really gunna worry about that one much..
So hopefully i have ppl that join the ride with me.
Ill update this every 2 days or so if i have time.
enjoy!
