How are we doing folks! Stainless from the UK here. This is my first ever grow, wasn't too sure whether to do a journal or not, and now that I am almost ready to cut down the babies, I am quite shocked as to how well they have come out so thought I would share with you guys too see what you think! Only experience is from a few friends and looking on here of course. The one thing I did do throughout the grow is take pictures, quite frequently so comments on any of the photos would be much appreciated. I know auto-flowering is quite new to the scene, a lot of people have their mixed reviews on them, reason I chose them was basically the duration it took to grow them. Sick and tired buying bits here and there, was really wanting to grow and smoke my own bud, QUICKLY! As this was my first, I basically done this as simple as possible:
THC BOMB AUTO
Indica/Sativa
Just finished flowering stage, one day of flushing has commenced.
2-3 Weeks in Veg
6 Weeks in Flowering
Indoor
Soil
Bio-Bizz Light Mix Soil mixed in with more perlite.
I'll be honest, I don't actually know the size of the pots, they were lying around and used them, would say between 8-12L, rough guess. (One pot is taller and thinner/second pot is shorter and wider) (this has affected the shape and size of the plants I would say)
600W Light (HPS)
22-26 °C (Temps have varied due to location, but have always been kept in between these, 22 is the lowest and 26 is the highest I have recorded)
No pests
Watering every day (1L per pot to begin with, moved up to 2L as plants got bigger)
Ionic Grow, Ionic Pk Boost, Ionic Bloom, Atami Bloombastic - With the nutes I have read just to give your plants very light feeds:
Grow 3ml/1L - every day of veg stage
Pk Boost 1ml/1L - 2 days per week, veg and flowering stage
Bloom 3ml/1L - everyday for 2 weeks then moved up to 7ml/1L for the rest of the flowering stage.
Bloombastic 0.5 to 1ml/1L for last 2-3 weeks of flowering stage.
Set Up
1.2 x 1.2 x 2.0m Grow Tent
Extractor TT-100 4" Fan
600 Watt Light HPS with reflector and ballast
4" Carbon Filter
2 Random size pots lol
Ph Tester (Electric)
2 x Temp Gauges
6" Clip on Fan
Very basic, I know, thought I would start nice and easy and buy a grow tent kit, start from there and build up gradually.
GERMINATION
Looked over so many ways to germinate the seeds and decided to plant both my seeds directly into the final pots, cover the pots with clingfilm, leave the lights on for 24hours until they popped, and they did beautifully!
Uploading all my photos at the moment so will come back once they are done
