Japanese growers

Anyone in the know concerning head shops in Nagoya, or Osaka? I remember one or two being mentioned on OG, but wasn't paying much attention as I was in Tokyo at the time.

Hello,
Here is a Japanese grower.

13315004a-med.jpg


Leda Uno, Germed 5, sprouted 4. They are 4 days old. Under 12w x 4 cfl.
Will bring them under 220w MH after 2 weeks. Hope to have at least 1 female.

Day 9 , repotted. still under 12w CFL x 4.


Day 10
I set up Plant Grow Fluorescent light (NEC Biolux-A: 20w x 2 >> 35w x 2 Overdriven).

Since the weather is still hot, I can not bring them under MH 250w yet. I will make grow cabinet within a few weeks.



Day 11
Approx. 20cm width & 8cm height
This is the biggest one. Fast grow plant often becomes male, though.



I made 4 slits on my pot. It is effective that stops root circling.
Also made some small holes on the pot to feed more Oxygen to plants root.

KC Leda Uno Day 12



I can feel pleasant Lemony smell from this strain.

fertilization : dilute urea (48% nitrogen) and make EC1.0 liquid, also make EC1.0 guano liquid. Mix up those 2 liquid and again dilute x 20, and it becomes very weak (EC 0.1) liquid (I check nute density with EC meter). I give that weak nute to the plants everyday instead of plain water.
I think it is better than feeding each 7-10 days EC1.0 nutrient. Feeding EC 0.1 nute everyday will not overdose and plants are easier to have weaker nutes. For example, I can drink beer a lot but I can not drink heavy vodka at all.
I found this fert method from my grow experience. At least it works for my grow, but I am not sure if it works for yours either.

> horticus,
Thanks for your response.

I bought them (Leda Uno, KC33, Bahia Black head) at Dope seeds.
Usually Japanese growers do not buy cannabis seeds at domestic headshops. Headshops are often raided by police or narco bureau and checked all their customers information, then your name will be updated on the blacklist. You should not buy seeds there.

Policemen often watching people near the headshop and checkup the people. If you have something illegal, you will get caught.
Want to buy seeds, buy at SB, DrChronic, Dope, etc,. If you are considering grow in Japan, buying seeds at domestic headshop is quick way to the Jail.

Thanks JP, I don't plan on buying any seeds in Japan, just curious.

Yours are really developing nicely. BTW, I grew out KC33 10 years ago outside and it was kick-ass!!

Hi, horticus, Thanks for your reply.
I am looking forward to having KC33 kick-ass bud.

anyway, I am inspired micro grow cabinet,
http://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=29593

then I am planing to make similar small scrog grow cabinet.



90cm height x 90 cm (45 cm + 45 cm) width x 45cm depth.

There are 2 separated chambers in 1 box. Set 150w HPS for each room.
Under 12/12 light schedule, when one room's light is turned on, another light is off.
The advantage of this 2 separated grow cabinet is, since either one of the two lights is turned on, I do not have to take care for grow cabinets temparature, even in winter time, even the grow cabinet is placed on the cold basement lumber room.

I will see how it works.
The problem is HPS bulbs are expensive in Japan, approx. $120 US for 1 x 150w bulb :yoinks:

You may need an exhaust fan on top of the unit, JP. I have a 250W and a 400W and both put out too much heat from the bulb. The plants have to be too far away from the glass shield for best growth/flower. The exhaust fan on top sucks out the heat and lets you move the top of the plants within a few inches of the glass.

Thanks for your advise.
I bought 2 pcs x 100v 25w fan for exhaust MHs heat.



Actually, I had grow box before (this is the third grow), but when one of my friends made trouble (police investigation), at that time I threw out most of my grow equipment (ex MH).
