Hello 420 Magazine. Time to start a new journal. I hope to have a veritable potpourri of growing cannabis. I'm being very ambitious and I'll be traveling a few weekends so it may be a bumpy ride. I'm also trying lots of new things. If you followed my current journal then you already know I added a 2x2 tent to the shed with the intent on using it to keep some mother plants, so that's going to be one of my goals. I've currently got 5 clones from 2 plants in the current grow. 3 Northern Lights and 2 Purple Queens.
That's a 6 gallon tote w/ 5 gallons of 1/4 strength GH Flora Series with some other additives, 2 pumps to circulate the solution, a UV filter and 2 large air stones. On the shelf below is a fairly strong air pump, humidifier and space heater. Above is a small LED grow light for seedlings. It's currently reading about 3500 lux at the sensor there on the lid. My current intake is a 6" inline fan that is split between this tent and the 4x4 which runs intermittently based off the temperature in the 4x4 which is currently in flower. The exhaust is a 4" inline fan that runs continuously.
In addition to the clones I dropped 4 seeds Saturday night.
On the right is a single Amnesia Lemon from Herbie's seeds. As the package indicates...it was a freebie.
On the left are 3 Double Black Label CBG seeds from CBG seed
2 of those had a tail this morning and by this evening the third popped out too. So far 3 for 3
All 3 of those seeds have been put into Coco Pellets in a small seedling tray with a USB LED built in. I'll get pics tomorrow.
My main tent (the 4x4) is setup as a recirculating hempy bucket system that can support 5 plants, the maximum I'm allowed to grow with my IL medical license. So, if all of these turn out to be viable, It'll host 2 Northern Lights clones, 1 Purple Queen clone, 1 Amnesia Lemon seedling and 1 DBL seedling. In the 2x2 tent I'll have 1 Northern Light clone and 1 Purple Queen clone to keep as mothers. For the other 2 DBL seedlings I want to try my hand at my first soil grow and I'll convert a couple of my old hempy buckets into Sub Irrigated Planters (SIPs) which I'll grow outside. I can do this because they are technically hemp plants and don't count against my 5 plant quota. I'll also be OK with the 2 mothers as long as I keep them below 12 inches.
That's enough to get this thing started. Once I see some roots developed I'll post strain info. Like I said...very ambitious. I'm going to need some solid 420 karma to get through this one
