My first growroom was plagued with problems. It was a shoddy 80 cubic foot frame, made from pvc pipe, cardboard for the panels, painted white of course, with four 4' flourescent shoplights on top. As a newbie, I was afraid to go to HPS, until I realized how easy it was; in wiring anything in your home, there are only three wires you have to worry about, positive, negative, and the ground wire, not too difficult. Anyways, the strains: I don't know, it was all bagseed; probably from Mexico. As a newbie they did awesome, I had three sativa females, one indica female, which my buddy named "Halo". And three more mixed phenos, one we named "Confucious".
This grow was a disaster, I went up to my seven ladies one morning, and one was gone! Yeah, I freaked, thought roaches were eating my plants. So I sprayed enough Bengal to kill the Orkin man, and thought my troubles were over. But it was not the roaches, and before catching this mysterious plant eater, many more ladies would succumb to this beasts appetite.
No activity for two days, I thought I was in the clear, but on the next visit, I found absolute horror, my biggest mother, twice as big as any of the other plants was gone! I mean stalk and everything! No roaches could have done this? So, I layed mouse traps, lots of them. I put out 4 boxes of poison, 4 of those sticky mouse traps, and 6 of those "snap" broke your finger" mousetraps! I went commando on those rats' asses! But they went Navy Seal on my ass, the next day I went up and one of the sticky mouse traps was half way across the room, and all of the bait was gone, and about two more plants were gone!
Well, the poison finally killed the whatever, and I was recovering what grow I had left, about a week left on "Halo" and "Confucious" was coming on along, the sativas had a while, but things were looking good. Then on a routine inspection of growth, I found what no grower want to find, his whole growbox caved in! Lights all shattered, plants literally crushed, a whole f'ing mess. It was my fault, my tolerances on the pvc were not correct. Anways, I salvaged a bout an Oz. of premature buds, and was discouraged from growing for a while:
...........Until I came to this conclusion!
My first attempt, sabotaged by some unknown creature:
Episode I: The Phantom Menace
Which only inspires me to bring in the next chapter of this neverending saga to liberate cannabis:
Episode II: The Clone Wars
We will be growing alot of good strains on this thread, and will be asking Bog and Rez for there help, mainly on the LSD, but we also have Oaxacan Sativa, Gypsy might be able to help us all out on that one, and who can't get enough of that Who's Yo Daddy? We will have plenty of that going on too! This is my first attempt at cloning, and am off to a good start. I wish you all a happy season, and may your thumbs be forever green.
Check back, as pics are loaded, and in the meantime, checkout the thread "seeds, cuttings, swaping?" It just keeps getting bigger.
