Greetings again IC!
I am back with the second incarnation of my perpetual hobby. The last grow was very successful for my first run, I lived high and mighty for many a moon. But alas, all good things must come to an end, my jars lay empty and my pipes cold and unpacked. So lets make some more magic! I have learned much about my main strain, Jock Horror, and it will again make up the majority of this grow. It is joined by a few Northern Lights x Big Bud (a mediocre smoke, IMHO), some Indoor Mix (my fav), and a new mystery strain, gleaned from high quality bag seed I came across this fall. Here are the specs:
Lighting: 2x400w HPS in a 12 sqft. area
Substrate: A mixture of FFoF soil, perlite, and my own backyard compost
Nutes: Fox Farm regime
Technique: Screen of Green
Ventilation: One 165cfm inline fan
Foliage: 7 Jock Horror (clone), 2 IM (clone), 2 NLxBB (clone), 6 Unknown (seed), all in one gallon pots.
This time I am utilizing many more plants (I had ~6 last time) in a slightly smaller, more efficiently lit space. The SCROG method has been employed for greater control of the canopy amongst other benefits. The clones are all female, but I will have to keep an eye out for males in the unknown strain (henceforth dubbed "CharlieWeed") as they are unsexed. The veg time is a little uncertain, they have been under 20/4 lighting since mid-december. Lighting will be switched over to 12/12 this weekend. Now for some visuals, apologies for the contrast issues:
The garden, pre-screen (I was using the exhaust to heat my home during this time, it was quite chilly and will probably be routed again soon)
Canopy Shots
A shot of the clone/veg cab. The small plants in front are actually revegged IM clones, taken at harvest a month back. I was stunned they survived as it was just a half ass experiment.
On an interesting note, I have actually stopped smoking regularly. Call it a cleaning of the mental attic if you will. The last harvest more than satiated my cannabis receptors...time to give em a little break. And yes, my partner Guillamo is back to assist me when proximity is not possible.
Stay tuned, the best is only to come.
