Hey 420
It's great to be back!
Let's get straight into this shall we.
For those who've been part of my grows before, not much has changed however I'll briefly describe my modus operandi for anyone new to my gardening. I am an LED user, I am a super heavy defoliator and my current medium of choice is coco coir (This is mainly because it's the cheapest option). My tent size is 60×120 and I usually grow 8 small plants in said space. My choice of nutrients is the infamous MegaCrop v1 which I will use until it is either "unusable" (this is because it is a powder which is damp and it may eventually go bad) or I run out. I also try to keep airflow good in my grow tent and room. Where I live is very humid so a constant worry for me is mould. I haven't had any for a while now but that doesn't mean that I'll be relaxing any time soon. I don't check PH and always water to run-off. The plants never recieve a flush during a good grow and we are usually done by week 9-10. For most of my time growing cannabis I'd normally focus on growing indica type plants as I like to relax however things have changed recently. I'd like to grow some more uplifting strains to help energize myself as I don't seem to have as much trouble asleep these days. That leads us nicely onto how this journal will start off.

I decided to grow something from a sponsor so I went with Barney's versions of GMO and Sour Diesel. Both of these strains are sativa leaning and should be heavy hitters. To compliment these two I've gone with HSO's Green Crack and Blue Dream. Both of these are fruity and uplifting and should be heavy yeilders.
This is how we will be starting out the journal however I also have something else. Something special. Now, I've been trying to get these for months and this was my third attempt at trying to purchase them (they litterally sell out less than 24 hours after going on the site) but persistence finally paid off and I managed to obtain a pack. So here we have an absolute classic and I can't wait to see what I might have from these seeds....
Some of you might think that Blueberry is a bit boring now but I'm super excited about these.
So, we've put these seeds into starter plugs and have put the plugs into a heated propagator as it is really cold in my place despite the summer only just coming to an end. The fem plants will be flowered first and the Blueberries (regs) will first have the males removed and then be cloned. I'm hoping to keep a blueberry and maybe even gift some to some friends. I'm getting ahead of myself here and should first focus on popping those beans....
The tent which we will be flowering in is currently busy but not to worry. We have lots of space for vegging small plants. Here is a little peak at what we currently have cooking....
I didn't want to start a journal half way through so we won't worry about those too much. But incase anyone was interested those plants were GTA (Gorilla, True Mints and Apricot), G-Mint ( GMO x Kush Mints) and Pine Tar Kush. A couple of those plants were a bit rubbish but most are good.
So that is that. Hopefully we will see some seedlings pop up by the end of next week and then the real fun can begin.
That's all for now. Hope everyone is well and stay safe. Much love from the Professor and happy gardening
