It is said that “All roads lead to Rome” and the way I see it that is how it is with growing. There is no one right way or any wrong way to grow, as it depends on the grower and what that person hopes to achieve from growing the plant – their reasons for growing this boisterous, mysterious weed. Myself I like to grow trees, not plants. Cannabis trees.
My grow consists of 4 plants. A white Rhino from White Label seed company, and 3 Church from Green house. The white rhino is 4 months old.
The Church plants, at that moment range from 5 weeks old to 3 weeks old. The white Rhino I managed to save from a previous grow;
With temperatures in excess of 100 F, I lost an number of Himalayan gold to root rot and heat stress, but managed to bring the white Rhino back from having few roots, thanks to Rhizotonic and a lot of patience; that is why it is 4 months old and has not been flowered yet. Here is a picture of the 4 plants. At the moment the plants are under a 600 watt halide.
I grow indoors using a hydroponic medium called Flycell, and use both chemical and organic fertilizers. I feed my plants Cyco nutrients, along with organix Harvest, which is a mixture of fish, seaweed and Fulvic acid concentrate, totally organic; along with Rhizotonic, and super thrive. Each plant is in a 52 liter( around 13 gallon) pots. each pot has an air stone at it base connected to an air pump. I water about every 2 to 5 days, depending on the plants. If I water lightly, then I water more often.
I use beneficial bacteria and friendly bugs to keep the root zone healthy. The fertilizer has a EC of around 1.6 and with a ph range anywhere between 5.7 and 6.4 depending on whether the plants need more nitrogen or, at a higher Ph range - potassium and phosphorus. Here is a picture of the White Rhino:

Here is another picture of the White Rhino:
I keep them at a temperature of between low 70s F to no more than around 80 F; I control temperature by using various on/off cycles on my exhaust fan(I will eventually control the fans with a thermostat). If I feel they need more heat, I reduce the time my exhaust fan is on. I have a large room(1848 cubic feet) but my grow area is 8 feet by 6 feet. I like to use a 600 watt lamp for each plant, but have to watch my electricity bill, so I make sure they get at least 60 watts per square foot and ideally around 80 watts p.s.f.
I am in early autumn here, and heat is not such a problem as it was in summer with days over 100F, it was real hard to control the temperature and keep it down using a fan. An air conditioner would have solved my problems, but I could not afford to buy one. so I lost plants to root rot and stress. fuck, I hate summer. . .
Here is a picture of the 4 plants( White Rhino and 3 Church) taken yesterday:
and another of my oldest Church plant:
Another of the White Rhino:
Another of the 5 week old Church plant:
This is another Church plant. This one is around 4 weeks old:
The is my third Church plant; it is around 21 day old:
This is another photo of my 4 week old Church plant:
and lastly another picture of the White Rhino:
I will be back with an update, but I will leave it here for now.
Happy growing
