Let's Grow & Process Some Medical Grade!

Hello everybody, Welcome to my Grow room Diary, A little background info, I have been growing for the better part of the past 20 years, I have experience with hydroponics and soil/soiless mediums. You could say I have tried it all. My goal is top shelf medicine no fillers.

I've currently been running a custom blended soil mix, and running 4 600w digital hps/mh ballast. Last run I done 17 plants 8 scrog trained the other 9 left all natural. The results of that run were not to impressive, However I ended up with just over 69oz from 16 plants which gave me just over 4 oz average. The smallest plant was 91 grams and the largest was 156 grams. The rest fell somewhere in the middle.

This round I currently have 16 Gorilla Glue #4 on one side of the room, and on the other side I have a mixture of strains, Motor Breath, Blue OG, Deathstar, Girl Scout Cookies, ChemDXCaseyJones, sour dubb, and ghost og. I am running 7.5 gallon rubbermaids with 2 plants per container, with a plexiglass divider. I run 1 2x2' scrog screen per container, so I can get a full scrog canopy while also being able to pull plants out and move them around if need be or just to access plants in the back for training.

I have a thread going in the Organic Soil Forum but considering the depth of my future postings I figure a Diary is due. For a recap of my first round check the following thread.

https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=329897&page=2

Now for the next round I just put the screens on and started training about 7-14 days of veg and training before the flip. This is the last run in this current room, which was only a temp room setup to get things started while I built the real room. So this is the last run in the 2400w scrog room.

The new room is complete and the grow log for it will pick up about page 4 of this thread. Here's a look at the 9 light room.

I root my clones right in the medium I transplant and grow in. I buy rubbermaids, Cut a bulk of the lid out, and replace with plexiglass and bam a cheap a long lasting clone dome. Then I fill cups with the same soil I grow my babies in and root them right in the cups.

The gorilla glue #4 girls have some weird leaf deformities that have seemed to mostly go away, they were starting to do it early on after transplanting into the fresh batch of soil, not really sure whats up with that, none of the other plants show any similar deformities just the GG#4.

Setting the timer back to 12/12 today, this is the last run in this location, This was merely a temp location to get something started while the proper location was located and secured. A time filler and a chance to obtain proper genetics for the future endeavor.

Here's both sides from today, transition time...

The true GG4 have that fan leave that will always curl so I've read

I was checking out the gg4 thread recently and noticed, thanks for adding the info here though.

Yeah I am a Rosin fan its the best way for the average home grower to get a quality dab, When rooting clones directly in the soil the trick is to keep the humidity right and have plenty of air space, This method will produce 100% results every time, once you get the hang of it.

Time for an update, day 2 12/12 some of the gorilla glues are gonna be insane by the end of the stretch, gonna have so many budsites all over the place I can't wait. The others are filling in pretty good too, The blue og and chemd stretch like mad so they will fill in the empty space with ease. Looks like the screens will all be filled which should give a much better result then the last round.

Shatter anyone? Let's blow up another patty in the oven, Took my eyes off this for a moment and let it grow so large it touched the side panel and the front glass can't take your eyes off of it when its first put in or you end up with a mess.

Tied down some more tops today and pruned a few leafs not a whole lot at this point though. I will wait till closer to the end of the stretch to remove anything shading other budsites.

The following shatter patty is getting close, should be absolutely shatter by the end of the day.

The first 3 photo's are the GG#4 and the others are of the mixed side, with Sour Dubb, Bubba Kush, Ghost Og, MotorBreath, Deathstar, Blue OG and ChemDxCaseyJones.

Nice job, only been growing since March, on my second run now. Got white widow x big bud, sour d, Bubba kush (green house seed company), and og kush. First round I didn't do a transition feeding, this second round I did. Noticed my plants stretched way more this round. How long do you typically transition feeding when you flip to 12/12? Thank u

Time for a quick update, The GG#4 girls got their last bit of training and defoliation at dtay 11 12/12, All human intervention is done for now, unless some supporting is needed later.

GG4 photo's from day 11 12/12

The other side is done with training as well, Here are the photo's from the left side of the room. All in all I am happy most screens have filled in nicely only 1 or 2 has some empty space and I think those will fill in before the stretch is complete.

Quick update, The glue is looking good the screens filled well, I'm pretty happy with the canopy on both sides, The chemdogxcaseyjones is off the hook its exploding pushing the screens to the max.

Did a little squish this morning, and pulled a patty out of the oven to flip it and put it back in and when I set it down I set it on top of a pack of cigs, I noticed I could visibly see through the shatter patty and the parchment even appeared to be see through although from the back side it looked normal and white. It still made a unique photo, Parchment underneath appears transparent.

First photo is the left side, mixed up strains. The second photo is the gorilla glue, and then the picture of the shatter patty getting flipped and put back into the oven, and lastly a squish yummy stuff.

It's been a couple weeks since the last update, I've been busy working on the new operation and getting the old one finished up, I decided last minute instead of doing 10 lights I am just gonna do 9 3 rows of 3 works best for the space I am in. The rooms nearing completion a lot going on but soon it will be rocking.
