Welcome friends and casual acquaintances.
I am starting this journal now, instead of later, because I am homeless. In a journal sense. This will be my final resting place for all future grows, if the boss is socially cool like that. This journal will also be where I/we can discuss various topics. I am open to various topics so long as they aren’t racist, sexist, or closed to facts and logic. But mostly growing cannabis and posting photographs. The odd link to whale sounds.
My first grow was mildly amusing and slightly successful if at least ‘not a complete failure’. My second grow was less amusing but more successful. I don’t have high hopes for this journal to be amusing at all but I am hoping for an improvement on my yield while maintaining my photographic quality of the plants.
This will be a slow start. I plan on doing some work in and around my grow space as well as some unintended renovations upcoming due to some winter snow/water damage to my place. No rush for me as I have plenty of bud to last us.
Not a great start for a reader. I don’t know which strains I will be dropping. Not a bunch of cool photos to share. Here is what I CAN tell you.
Grow Space: A 3’ x 3’ x 6.5’ tent. Built like a tank. Lots of double vents. I also have a smaller veg tent but it’s not in this scene.
Light: I have two. One is a Fusion Pro 400 from growlightscanada. The second is a Perfect Sun Dwarf Star. Plenty of light for my space.
Grow Medium: Living Organic Soil. A full breakdown is available somewhere in my electronic bread crumb trail on 420. A general breakdown is in the comments of one of my photos below. I do know it’s getting better and better each round.
The soil is in two large totes. I will be careful not to overwater in these bad boys. I amended one of the totes as shown in the photo.
Odour: I got a big ass carbon filter and fan.
Training: I built an adjustable net for LST. This time it will be used the whole grow and not taken off. I wanted to see how the plants grew without it. Now I want to see how it does when properly utilized.
So this will be a slow journal to start. I Hope to get some seeds planted ASAP but until then it’s going to be quiet.
