Hello again everyone.I'm going to journal this grow after all.
Hell,I figured why not?
My last grow was a poormans grow and even though I did not harvest
a mass quantity,what I did do was grow some of the best smoke I've had in awhile for next to nothing.
The strain was unknown but it came from a local grower who grows out in the swamp.
I harvested quite a few seeds from that last grow and have successfully popped a few.
This grow is second generation(for me)and I hope to do even better this go round using basically the same setup.
There is alot of bad rep for MG going around and I understand the reasoning behind this but I am poor and MG is cheap!
I am officially calling the strain:Carolina Swampgrass
My setup:
I will be using my good old trusty tron again with about 18qts. of miracle grow soil.(3 month nutes in the soil)
I started with six plants,three started showing first signs of male so they're gone.
Three left,not officially females yet but looking good.
I have just topped one plant and supercropped the others.
I am also using a 10gl. flower pot next to the tron for one other plant.
It contains 30qts. of MG soil as well.
The plant I've tranplanted into this pot was started in my aerogarden.(A great Xmas present I must say)
Transplant was two days ago,looking good.
Lighting
The old tron has three utube flourescents and I added four 100wt equivalent CFL's from the top.
I rigged a four socket droplight rig above the 10gl pot with four 100wt CFL's also.(When plant gets a bit bigger I will add an additional four.)
Light cycle has been on 12/12 for almost two weeks as of now.
Nutrients
I was going to go natural again but decided to go MG all the way to see what I come out with.
I will be using MG Azalea/Camellia/Rhdodendron water soluble plant food. 30-10-10
(for acid loving plants)
I will also be using MG water soluble Bloom Booster Flower food.
15-30-15
Note on my soil:
I added 1 part perlite to every 3 parts soil when I mixed it.
Total investment to date:Had the tron for awhile though I paid $200
Soil,lights,nutes about $70,for a grand total of $270
This grow will be all CFL's as will anything I ever do.(I have my reasons)
Ok,that about covers it.I will try and get pictures up this weekend to officially kick off my journal.
