We've hit 550 pages on the previous journal, more than enough reason to start anew. I'll try to keep the additions to between 300-400 pages from now on. We do enjoy each other's company, don't we?
I'm transitioning the entire grow over to Doc Bud's High BrixBlend kit, which most of us affectionately refer to as "the kit", to keep anyone from being confused. I've been growing in Doc's kit for coming up on two years now..... Wow! That caught me off guard. I'm not all that good at it yet, but this year I have a renewed focus on growing the best, most trichome-laden girls I can because I intend to begin making the Naturally Decarbed SAP oil the Grow Goddess has developed. I'm feeling certain this may be some of the best CCO one could produce on your own.
I'll be using four spaces:
- 2 Mars-Hydro 2x2 tents for flowering
- the tiny closet for Dark Devil Autos
- a 4' x 13" metal shelf for veg
At the moment there's an Advanced DS XML 350 in one of the 2x2 tents and a Budmaster II G.O.D. panel over the other tent. The tiny closet is covered by a Timber Lights Vero 240 and the veg shelf is being served by two Mars-Hydro panels, a 3x100 and a 5x60.
I'm waiting on a special shipment from Timber Lights. They're fabricating a group of lights to cover all of the grow spaces and be more in keeping with my fluid growing style. A lot of excitement over this development, which frees up a lot of lights to find their way into other grows.
So what's growing, and what do I have planned for the upcoming year? I still have one plant in LOS, The Candy Cane in flower now. She'll be finishing up sometime in the next month.
To keep myself from getting crazy and messing with the kit plants as I try to gain better mastery of the system I'll be keeping a hempy pot going off to the side. It's my opportunity to learn bottled nutes and just plain have fun.
At the moment that spot is occupied by Emerald, a clone of the more sativa-leaning Carnival. She's struggled as I demonstrated multiple ineptitudes at this method, but she's hung in there with me. She's at Day 119, 23 days into flowering.
Carn1:4, a clone of the more indica-trending Carnival, is due to come down by the weekend. She's overrun with mites or she'd get a couple more weeks.
The tiny closet is currently home to a CBD Critical Cure, my second attempt with this strain, and the clone I made from the top I clipped off her last month. She's 71 days old and itching to get into that flowering tent.
These will be the replacement in that space. Two Dark Devil Auto seeds secured from the stock created by Rifleman. I need to see what these seeds are capable of.
I'll be focusing on Carnival most of the year, learning to grow consistent yields and potency. The grow, for the most part will be a steady supply of Carnival, Dark Devil Auto and CBD Critical Cure. I've pretty much figured out what works for myself and my daughter. I'm sure other plants will find their way in. I have some Jamaican seeds to get to and Canna and Nis gifted me some Devil's Carnival seeds of their own making. How do I pass up the opportunity to try a cross of my two favorite strains?
The shelves will be moved into the living room, since they'll be veg only and I won't need the LED panels for that. I can start with CFLs and reflectors.
I'll be installing an RO system ASAP. Need to get it ordered.
It'll be nice to get the space in my bathroom back.
My goals for this grow are the same as they've always been, keep me high on Carnival or Dark Devil Auto and keep myself and my daughter supplied with capsules made with a good CBD strain having at least a balanced ratio.
I believe that's all the pertinent information. Let me open the door and welcome you all.

I keep opening new rooms. 
Welcome to the new room keltic. 
How much waste water do these systems create? You might not consider this a concern, but if I increase my water usage too much in this apartment it's gonna raise some interest we don't want raised. I already pay an additional $30 a month for the washer. If I'm wasting three gallons for every one I get for the plants that's not gonna sit well with me. 
Find a seat and make yourself comfortable.
