Hi Folks !

I wanted to share a few pics of the strains i've got this summer in my little garden. I'm located at 43° North, here we've got sunny days, but fall can be cold and damp.

I'll try to show as much pictures as i can, and i apologize in advance for the quality of my english writing, so please dudes be soft on me, this is my first journal on ICM :)

Well, to begin this is my garden, last year at late september :

This season i've chosen well known strains :

• White Russian (a clone that produces a lot)
• Afghani
• Blueberry
• Channel + (from Medical Seeds, i love this one, very sweet and good stoner)
• Northern Lights
• Primera Dama (clone)
• Queen Mother (clone)

The seeds germed at the beginning of april, except the afghani, sprouted up at early march.
As a substrate i use All Mix, Royalty Mix, and Cannaterra Pro+. To fertilise i apply Floranova Grow and Phyt Amin.

Now some pics, taken 4 april 2010 :

¡ Hola tios !

Thank you Marcellas, 3rdEye, T.rips, NickMode, Redspaghetti, SOTF420, GreenMAX for stopping by, anf for all the kind comments !

I spent the afternoon on ICMag watching at some journals and grow reports, and aouch ... here are hella growers ... Some plantations are real shows !

Well, everything is fine in my tiny garden, my babes keep growing. The weather is really hot, they need to be watered quite often. I'll put them in bigger jars at the end of the week (13 and 21 gallons jars).

Here they are, a month ago :

Promises are made to be kept, so here are the seeds from a cross i did with a friend.
The mother is a selected cut of Apollo Mist well known on french forums, and the father is an Afghani. From now we'll try to choose the best plants between males and females to create a good hybrid.

Have a good day everyone :)

wow.. wonderful MGC. One thing you might consider, if you haven't already, is putting a pot or something around the container your plants are in. This will keep the roots from getting superheated from the sun and will give you happier plants for longer.

mmmm hash :)

Hi GaiusMarius, yes you're right.

jdcicmag36.jpg


The whole story : i received this clone in late february, i put it outside immediately because i don't grow indoor, i don't have any HPS or such.
So it begins to flower slowly because it passed from indoor 18/6 hours of light per day, to outdoor 11/13 hours of light per day. Then, towards april it started growing again. Since that it makes one pale leaves, and has that weird appearance ...

Sincerely i dunno what kind of crop it gonna yield !

should be fine, had plants like that too. for outdoors such a bushy specimen is advantageous, just as long as they have time to get back fully to veg before they start flowering again.
