Im going to attempt to start a journal and keep up with it so I can keep better track of my grows
Using a 600w adjustable lumatek...I can blast it at 600 now that Colorado is cooler...ran it at 400 most of the last grow for temperature reasons...now I can just crack the window and the negative pressure in the closet draws the cooler air in and keeps it mid 70s...instead of mid 80s at 400w
Grow is in rockwool with GH 3 part micro, grow, and bloom, h202 with feedings, sometimes superthrive not lately tho ( heard it has male hormones/promotes males and nanners possibly? plus the lid is dried shut..again) used spino for thrips early in harvest and greencure worked for PM late
Strains from the last grow were bagseeds I got in FL from some CO stuff (Funny I brought it back to where its from and started the cycle over) Stuff was labeled and seemed to be pretty true to the strain as far as I can tell. I noticed nanners in the buds I found seeds in so I knew they where most likely herm and possibly fem?. I got scared and tossed a few of what I thought were males at first when I was poppin beans. Who knows if they were, I tossed em early. Only like one threw nanners REEEAAALLY bad...others was here and there..I would cut em when I saw em at first but then I got lazy. Not many seeds at all first crop. 19 plants crammed together, poppin occasional nanners under 400w mostly, 600w briefly. It was a mess, hah. 13 strains tho. I germ'd 25 seeds thinkin 50/50...i think one didnt germ, 1or2 dried out and a couple were strugglers or growing funny...so I 20 seedlings and 1 died...Long story short I got lazy half way thru flower and wasnt adjustin Ph and was just watering to keep them alive so they got a 4 week lockout/flush...came outta really clean smoke, does the trick, no complaints all compliments....had LOTS of yellow at harvest which made for mellow smoke...had some PM a few weeks before harvest but I managed to kill it off...buds are great and getting better as they hit month 4 in the jars....coulda been better tho if i properly maintained them i got between 10 and 14g per plant and ended up with around 212g dry and cured...i have higher hopes with a maintained and higher wattage garden going...oh and the grow space wasnt much bigger than 3x4 maybe? half of a large closet...also had some thrips at first but I knocked them out quick...Im glad I was able to save the crop because I got pretty scared when the PM popped up late in harvest...that whole period was stressful...working and trimming at night by myself, cutting down too many at once and colorados low rH dryin them quicker than used to in FL, i was taking down what i could harvest each night ( only a few before i was too tired to keep on, rubbin goo in my sleepy eyes suuuuucked )
anyways grow1 strains are from seed mostly ( labeled badseed i got in FL from CO and have brought back to its birthplace and currently grow in CO all strains seem to be true to the names on the bag )
-2x black widow/white widow barely different in taste and smell, very similar tho...grew similar
-1xmedicine man/white rhino
-2xcritical mass grew kinda different but very similar finished...its very berry-y
-1xg13xskunk (clone of seed ) smelled like earth and got deficient and rosetted...CRAZY squatter it was growing like 8 growth sites/fanleaves per node...it was crazy..a freak
-1xgreat white shark
-2xmeltdown ( i cant find ANY information on this strain and i reeeeeallly enjoy it...its got a nose turning stink ) both pretttty similar
-1xgrape god bud (clone from seed found in bag from local clinic in denver, heavy indica, patients choice and cup winner in CO, inhouse exclusive strain type they dont let out....coulda been a nanner cross or something but finished as close as a closet could get to a multimillion dollar grow op, i think)
-1xsilver dragon ( my favorite because the flavor is so unique and the smell...from a FL bagseed from a good buddy, no CO borne tho...cali i think, cant find anything on it except a couple MMCs which also carried Pot o Gold at that time a few years ago when i got the seed, SD and PoG
-4x green crack ( i like this strain...my most sativa for sure...unique taste and smell...citrusy)
-2x hawaiian skunk/real mccoy
-1x LSD
-1x Fuckin Incredible
-1X NYC Diesel
Ramble on and catch up to the current grow....grow2 was a fail because i got lazy with grow 1, at the same time... i was gonna stagger grow 2 in so i could get a lil perpetual...the medicine man/wr made plant number 20 for grow 1, it was about a month behind the other 19, it was the only survivor of grow2...it was tragic i lost my green crack genetics (sucks) and my grape god bud (really sucks) and my damn dragon too ( really suckED ) i say sucked because i knew it nannered (bci saved it too make more seeds later hopefully) it was only one or 2 that ever popped and it was half way thru flower prolly and on the lower branches...so one day i was really pissed about losing the GC, GGB, and SD, as i

i got between 10 and 14g per plant and ended up with around 212g dry and cured...i have higher hopes with a maintained and higher wattage garden going...oh and the grow space wasnt much bigger than 3x4 maybe? half of a large closet...also had some thrips at first but I knocked them out quick...Im glad I was able to save the crop because I got pretty scared when the PM popped up late in harvest...that whole period was stressful...working and trimming at night by myself, cutting down too many at once and colorados low rH dryin them quicker than used to in FL, i was taking down what i could harvest each night ( only a few before i was too tired to keep on, rubbin goo in my sleepy eyes suuuuucked )anyways grow1 strains are from seed mostly ( labeled badseed i got in FL from CO and have brought back to its birthplace and currently grow in CO all strains seem to be true to the names on the bag )
