hi to all you Aussies and Kiwis.
hope you dont mind me posting a grow diary here.

these are seeds from a friend. they were supposed to be a Purps x Kush and a Ingemars Punch x Double gum.
though i'm doubtful about the P X K as the leaf looks very long and thin to me. nothing like any kush or purps i've seen.


here she is with the IP X DG


and here is the grow set up


its soil, 2/3 Debco, 1/3 Perlite
using cfl's
in 10 litre pots
grow space 500mm x 600mm

i do have a hydro set up but its taken up with 3 Easyryder, feminised Autos atm. so this lot will go under the HPS when the autos are finished.

my normal tag is slicker but thats taken here. just in case you wonder who the hell is taslicker

Tasmania...ah yes..cascade beer...I've been there a few times flyfishing in the highlands.

Know a drop dead gorgeous woman in Ross too.

[ORbuds]

yeah nice setup

[Reg Dixon]

I like the set up. Very flexible attaching the screen to the pot like that. Had not thought of doing it that way. Very nice. Do you expect that will be enough space on those screens?

[taslicker]

Do you expect that will be enough space on those screens?

no Reg not if i veg for too long.
as soon as they poke their snouts over the screen im switching to flo so they dont overflow the space. or maybe sooner

there are 5 light fittings under each board so 115 watts if i want to. there wired up in parallel so i can plug in 1 or 5 depending on where and how the growth is happening.

I think anyone with an intrest in the great out doors does as well mate

ohhh setup looks solid taslicker

[taslicker]

they still haven't poked there noses through the screen yet so nothing much to show.
just a update pic to document the progress



the P x K is starting to show a more normal leaf growth after the first weird leaves. so i expect it will start behaving more like a mainly indica strain from now on.

[taslicker]

as you can see by the lighting in the pic i have changed the lights to soft whites and switched over to 12/12.
yes a bit early but i dont want these babies to get too big, they have to fit in that cab.

the P x K poked its head thru the screen and for it efforts got its head nipped off
and to add insult to injury its been tied down. let the bondage begin

i've just finished fitting an inlet and exhaust fan (computer fans on a 12 volt adaptor) to the cab. i'm surprised that these have balanced out the temps very well and with the door closed the temp is about 27 deg C. sometimes things work out well

the great thing about this small system is i may be able to grow thru winter, in this cab, without using a heater. the heating cost has always made winter growing out of my price range but this may make it affordable.



anyway not really interesting yet. next event will be when they show sex.
im happy with this system so far.
they are slower and smaller than DWC but i'm hoping it will give a more mellow smoke.

so far they have only had PH adjusted water.
i wont be adding any nutes until they need it.
there are lots of goodies in this organic mix.
i want them to use this first.
when i do add nutes it will be Manutec Bloom Booster.

[taslicker]

a pic to show there growing.
there in soil so a bit slower and smaller than my DWC. but thats ok, its all good.


i think one is a girl but too early to be sure, yet
