My 2024 Basic Soil Grow

High and Good Morning from Oregon

I'm a lady grower well into my 60s. I own my own home, do most of my own maintenance of it. I've been a nature lover since i was a child. I've always grown a garden always found a way to grow weed outdoors hidden from view. I had a marriage, children and now i'm on my own for last 2+yrs. Me my 2dogs and 1 cat.

I'm not a techie with my tent setup. It's just simple basic so here goes..........

3x3x6 tent
Viparspectra P2500
recycled indoor potting soil with refreshed addl worm castings
new coco coir and vermiculite plus perilite. I mix in a large sealed tub.
I'm using 5gal fabric pots this run
Nutes are Dyna Grow & Bloom. Epsom salts and unsulferated molasses
That's it !

I'm on day 45 from seedling transplant. The plan was to just do 2 photoperiod which became 4 now in the tent.
I was gifted by a friend breeder his version of seed " Blueberry Muffin " and WW x Purple ? and then i've got 2 Slurricaine fems from seed. I'm waiting on sex for the BBM & WW X

I do not use exaust nor humidifier but i do have a oscillating fan outside blowing through the main door when lights are on. So this grow is pretty much ambient room temps all the way. I plan to take clones within 2wks and flip to flower by 3/12 date which will be about a 2month veg growth. Thank you for the welcome i'm just a simple farmer lady who enjoys growing green goodness.

Welcome to the Site @Greengoodness !

Happy looking plants you have going. I'm seeing a hint of hungry, but could just be how the lights reflect off the leaves.

Are you a seasoned grower or just jumping in?
No i'm well seasoned LOL i'm just not a heavy feeder. I mix my own N into my soil with worm castings that i believe is good for a month or so. I have introduced Dyna Grow 2x lightly into their waterings. That modeled leaf one is the new X gifted to me from seed. I potted it in too hot mix during transplant roots were not circled inside small cup came out loose so it was rather rough on it. Been nursing it since then. She is finally gaining ground and appears to be coming out of the leaf issue. I'm very patient and i kept her cause i'm willing to challange my skills to heal. She's come around really since i topped it seemed to kick her in the butt. Abit of Grow and Epsom salt drinks is all she's got. Light is 26" from canopy at 75%

Feeding day, day 48 from seed. I now will give grow nutes Dyna Grow 1tsp per 1/2gal water. The first 3 get that but 4th plant still on sick meds. 1 tsp epsom salts per 1/2gal water, bat & fish quano 1tsp added shake an pour slowly just enough for abit of runoff. 2more wks before flip 12/12 and clones will be taken if not sooner. These plants are tellin me to flower them i think.

Girls are lovely my friend. :welldone:
May I make a suggestion :Namaste:
The pots could be filled to to top to give your girls more room for roots.
I find a big healthy root is key to a healthy plant, especially in flower.
Sometimes the led's bleach the color in the photos.
Just wondering they look a bit low on nitrogen or is it the light?
Hope your day is going well.
Talk soon.


Stay safe

Thanks for taking a peak Bill. They had been full and it's settled so yes they could use more soil i'll put another solo cup full when the lights are back on. Yes the slurricanes are needing more nutrients now, my worm castings enriched soil mix is depleted. They all got 1tsp of Dyna Grow per 1/2gal of water this a.m. When there ready for another drink i'm gonna give my tea mix to them then it's probley gonna be close to flip to flower and bloom nutes. Thank you for the tips. I'm not seeing like i use to LOL
 
Good morning from cold windy rainy Oregon. Ahhh spring is slowly taking hold of winter, although other than a shit show snow/freezes we've had i think it's been milder than years past.
So i decided to take several clones this morning from my Slurricane and Blue Berry Muffin. The plants are now 50days from sprout and in 10days i'm flipping to 12/12.

I like taking smaller cuts gives me time LOL but i also find that they root quicker than older branches. I cut mine at 45 angle, set in water, scrape the ends gently break the tissue then dip in Clonex gel and place them in my seedling medium which is light and fluffy then i clip alittle of the tips to kick start them into survival mode. Sorry i don't know much of the new terms used but i get the work done. I pre wet the cups and spray the inside of the dome with water, give the clones a shotglass of water an spray them.

I won't open it for 48hrs and that little T5 light stays on 20hrs till i see roots then i switch to 18/6. I am old school so my ambiant room temps are in the 70s f and as long as i see droplets inside the dome i know there's humidity. I do place clones in my tent when lights are on but not right yet.

Good morning those are my dogs Sonny & Poppy mixed breeds of something that doesn't shed LOL just sweetie pies. I can't put anymore soil into these now i had them out checking them over and all of them are node 1 into soil just about. Next time i'll remember to light tap the soil down prior to transplanting. I'm not worried about it i've grown photos in 3gal bags.

Keeping up with the tie down adjusting alittle more and took 3 more clones of that big slurricane bottom right. Last growth food given yesterday with 1/2gal each of fluid. I'm going to flip them in 5days maybe less. I'll just water them only flip to 12/12 give them Dyna Grow Bloom on the next needed waterings. Temps are good 75-80f RH 50-65% I should be able to tell sex on the blue berry muffin within about 7days after flip, it's in the bottom left corner. Fingers crossed :)

Good day all, stay safe

Puppies are too cute. Great pic.
Good luck hope it's girls.
Just curious garden looks a little light in color, hungry :Namaste:
Sometimes it's just the light washing out the color?
But healthy and happy. :welldone:
Take care.

Yes Bill that one slurricane is lighter looks better outside the tent they are getting full dose of growth food and been given poo juice tea. She's just not as dark green.

Decided not to wait 10days more in vegging so I changed the timer to 12/12 today. Those 2 slurricane are going to be a handful. I've done heavy training to keep them lower. On the left front is the blueberry muffin still on the fence M or F soon i'll see. Back right is the WW x purple kush that's lagging she's just hanging in there it will be a wonder what it looks like in flower.

These are mostly approx. 85day flowering give or take, within a week to 2 between harvests. So here it goes slow and steady. It's wet and cold outside, older i get less i like working outside in these temps. I got mossy driveway and walkways but not slippery just spongy LOL Have a great day. Oh just a FYI some fella from Calif. relied on his GPS to avert the 1-5 south he was going back to Santa Rosa?? So he followed the GPS on some unplowed road got stuck and luckly his GPS got a hit or his phone and he was helped back onto a major road. Time and time again this happens.
