Hallo RIU, welcome to my unlimited grow journal,
WARNING { this grow contains very ghetto setups and may make you want to cry or make you think that i am commiting plant cruelty , but rest asured this is how we roll in the third world)
REASON
( making this for a log for my self to keep track of my progress and to get help with all aspects of growing this wounder full plant all comments welcome )
EXPERIENCE
Well , i am new to growing in pots ( this shit is hard),,. But i do have some experience with outdoor , both cannabis and other kinds of gardening.
SEEDS
this is my sprouting method, they seem to remove tap roots in twos i keep finding a pair every time i check
Ok the strains are unknown, ( thats right fliyin blind) , i got about 5-700 seeds of unknown strain, i don't even know if there all sats, am hoping for one leaning more to the indi side, my last try at them i sprouted 5, 2 dead soon after sprouting to watter log. last one was culed cuz it started dieing after a bad transplant ( the problem here was the soil which i have tried to fix, we will see how you like mugans custom soil 2.0) where the root ball broke . That left 2, one in tip top shape(ish) it has 4 weeks left on its flower bill LOLZ, and the other is stunted ( i d k why welcome to fliyin blind)
as you can see the stunted one is got very skinny leaves almost like hemp bred for fiber ( these seeds are assorted as heck, and the other lady has bigger buds and is flowering faster and she smells that mm mmm good pungent )
OBJECTIVE
Well lets begin . the objective it to sprout as many of these seeds as posible and try and find a good strain ( i will be testing them my self hehe ) that exels in both growing speed and potency, and also yield but i think thats up to me. Worst case we get a male and i kill it ( violently) , or i kill a lady ( might cry a little,) or i cull due to stunted growth or mistake on my part ( sad but al live) /// best case i finish some up and i smokem , and i find some good strains, mother them and save the strain ( that means after every seedling hits vegg it will be labled with a date and name ( naming pot is fun) and a week before it goes into flowering i will take a cutting in case the plant ends up good... This means this thread might be long as this first post is, but am hoping this tediuos job can be fun and maybe i can learn a lot ( heck maybe u might learn a little something if you follow it)
Ok this are my current sprouts,
as you can see the first ones i did i tried 4 diff mediums and the compost/palm tree fiber pwned, fastest out, and in only 1 1/2 days after breaching the medium the roots were at the bottom ( lower pic)
i got 4 that have beached fully, 2 that you can see the leaves and 4 i put in to day after the tap root came out
( ive been thinking, here in the great country of kenya ( ) the photo period is always 12 hours and i was reading a sticky that said that herms are made by short veg times,
so since all 5 of my first seeds came out ladies then i think here when they plant the plantations ( prolly large ones) most plants are forced to herm and i believe herms only make female and herm seeds, so i think in this big ass bag of mine i got nothing but ladies ( one can only hope ),
GROWING AREA
OK i have 1 grow box ( for up coming mothers if i like the phenotypes that i get)(2x 85w 6500k cfls, 2 x 14w 6400k florescent tubes)
currently being used for sprouting, seeding and vegging lolz ( i know it looks not sterile but its been bleached and the dirt on the bottom is gravel from the rocks at the back which i use to lvl out the height of my pots cuz i use ghetto containers[very clean ghetto containers ]),
The other grow box is for cutting and seedling in future, (5x 14 watt 6400k tubes)
currently being used to sprout peppers and tomatoes, ( every thing will be sterilized accordingly when i get to needing it full time)
this area will need a way to close and a serious clean up cuz somone has been using it for kitty naps
to flower al be using a very ghetto green house made from see through tarp and cider polls ( it will be very sterile) working on it currently pics soon,
GROW MEDIUM
ok this is where you guys might not like, well since i am in an agricultural country where the ground is volcanic and full of goodness, we have 2 months of cold where temps never drop under 50 and all year 12 hours of light shine at almost or at 10,000 lm growing in pots is not even herd off unless of cause its growing merry who sadly is illegal here as well and cuz of the bad rep they crack down hard on it ( i don't get it i thought when i came here ad be free to sow the hemp seed lolz) , basically in short am saying no per lite no potting soil no nothing but i live on a personal farm so i can experiment will all matts i got from dol lime to ssp, got all kinds of compost ,coir( palm tree) manures, on the trial grow i used these matts
this soil was great nutritionaly but it failed in airation and drainage but since one of my plants is thriving in it it was not such a fail but i do need to improve airation thats why i am using palm tree fiber it drains very well
haven't decided what am going to do this time around but i sprouted in a 50/50 palm tree coir/ sterile humus medium, and the veging in , 1 part crushed potting containers 1 part compost 1 part seed meal/ fish meal, 1 part palm tree fibers, 1 part red soil. i also mixed in some lime and eggshells and a dab of generic rooting powder
( any one have soil recommendations plz let me know )
more to come, currently sprouting more seeds . stay tuned LOLZ
