Advocate420 Soil Grow 2018

Oh also
Any kush is always welcome plus the super yields of critical and purple buds from the peyote purp. Whats not to like lol. Never smoked it before either so Im defo intrigued. Love an indica aswell helps me sleep.
Oh also barneys is the shit. Cant speak for grow wise but im pretty sure 1/3 of the bud i got in dam was from them.
 
My old mentor told me if you go for a strain thats basicallya phenotype of an ooold strain thats been interbred then your on to a winner in terms of stability etc. Like cheese or an og kush or my lemon skunk. Unrelated to barneys but still a good point
 
Changed out the FSU with uv bulbs. Could see leaf burning. Man I don’t get uv yet.
Here is an update. Did some training and supercropping.



 
Thought I’d start a fresh journal, hope to gain some interaction and learning.

Dropped two seeds a feminized Cookies Kush and Blueberry OG from Barney’s Farm. Both indica dom with high THC ratings.
For early seed starting and early veg I’m using 2ft 4 bulb t5. I changed the bulbs to 2 full spectrum with uv, one 5400k and one 6400k I left in.



Soil is Coast of Maine Stonington blend growers mix. A super soil blend I’ve had good luck with.

I’ve chosen to pop my seeds in soil, 1 gal smart pots. For me with other methods I was having too many learning mistakes and wasnt as successful. Strait in the one gal pots they don’t get transplanted till ready for final pot so for me it saves some transplanting and decreases veg time some. I just find you have to keep the soil moist and humidity high. The pic is before covering the seed lightly with soil.


My space for starting is a 4x2 ft grow tent. Inline duct fan for exhaust with carbon filter I had on hand.

Looks like temps will be in low 70s lights on and upper 60s lights off. Humidity in air is around 50% but I’m using a humidity dome to try to keep higher until I get a few nodes.

I use spring water and no nutes at this stage. Occasionally r/o water if in a bind. I try to never give plant strait r/o water for several reasons. For nutes I use General Organics go box nute line. I follow the chart on the back of the box for my entire grow. With my soil I havnt had to ph my water and have few problems past couple grows. I also add hefty helpings of molasses and microbes to every feeding.

Here’s a pic of the flower tent going in my other journal. Just haven’t gotten too much interaction.

Okay so the clock has started. Let’s see what happens. Thank you !
Wow you have alot going on wish u had the space you had.. but looks awesome man.. I'm in for the ride!
 
Yeah.... many of us spend a lot of time replying and forget new journals exist. I now watch for new threads automatically, to make sure no one goes unnoticed. It's a bummer, no one was really active in your other journal.

I try to be active in all the journals I follow, although I had to cut that number by a large amount. It was taking a lot of time just to stay caught up.

Still, we'll be here now.....

:high-five:
My god it's super hard to keep up and then on top of personal issue getting in the way of not letting me.. hahahah
 
Wow you have alot going on wish u had the space you had.. but looks awesome man.. I'm in for the ride!
Now that the big girls are harvested I’m feeling empty. Going to fill it with starting my veggies garden I think.
 
Ive seen people say a couple times. "No1 wants to see pics of seedlings". Why the F not. Its the first major milestone in any grow. No seedling=no plant=no fun. Fix up people this is the horticultural equivalent of a cute little mixed race baby with blue eyes lol
Hahahahahah you are fuxking awesome!!
