Hi all
some week ago a friends a mine give me 8 seeds in 2 different packets but he don't know what it was at the time...
So I germinate them, because... that's what we do with seeds :)
After some weeks he remember the genetics, so I understand i'm growing good seeds but maybe not in the best set up... whatever... we are growers, we are mad, we love sinsemilla, so let's grow some weed...

Growing in coco
tent is 90cm x 60cm x 220cm
veg time under "cyberpunks home made leds and an old Ovni totally rebuilt"
flow time under new bulb 250wHPS sunmaster dualspectrum
(active charcoal filter > cooltube > extractor > silencer)
hand watering, (make the solution in a 5L bottle and gives in 1 or more times, depends if i have time or not...)
Canna nutrients
Greisinger Ph meter


Germination day 00
put 8 seeds in my germination set up

Germination day 01
3 seeds already sprout

Germination day 02
prepare the coco and the vegging time, coco bricks hydrated with a light solution, Canna 1.0/L, rhyzotonic 5.0/5L, Ph 5.88
test my light stuff, home made led and a redesigned old ovni led
in the evening 6 seeds already sprouted
_____

the "light stuff", both, the redesigned ovni (removed all the metallic parts, rewire the things for put all outside the tent, change the 3 noisy coolers by a single silent one Noctua fixed at 2 or 3 millimeters from the led stuff, it make far less noise and heat and is much lighter), and the ledz (6500K spots disassembled and then assembled on a screen structure...)

Hi !
I like how the Congo grow, nice shape so far, already a bit resinous and start smelling nice...

but the grow in the same time/space of the Golden Tiger wasn't a good idea... lol, the GT grows much bigger, much stretch, BIIIG green monsters lol

next time i'll do a run with only congo or only GT

check congos, take a small dry bud, grind it, vape it, huuuuum, nice, early nice

flow day 091
5L canna 10.0, PK 2.5, enzymes 15.0, pH 5.84
full watering 10.30AM
so far about the 4 GT, 1 is small, frosty but small buds, nothing special, 1 is big and makes big flowers clusters this one is nearly finished, 1 is big also makes some secondary limbs and lots of small very compact buds and glued in trichomes this one will be cut same time as the 2 others, 1 the last looks very thaï and still kind of white but good production of flowers so I will let her alone even after the 100 days... they all looks like damn potheadz killers...
the Congos where small and fill one medium jar but they looks awesome, my bad to grow them with the GT in the same time... that was a bad move... but the smoke will still be a delight for sure, around 30 days of drying i'll post some pics of the stash and the GT also
