Come Chill In The Igloo - 2007

Welcome Everybody

This will be my new thread for 2007!

For those that don't know me, I am TML16
I'm a Canadian personal grower.
I've been a member here at IC for a year and was previously a member at OG.

The Grow

Flower Room - 3.5M(11') Length X 1M(3') Width X 2M(7') Height

Lighting - 250W HPS (with MH conversion bulb for veg) supplemented by a 42W "warm" CFL for lower growth side lighting.

Ventilation - 1 30cm(12") fan.
The room is big enough that with only 2-3 plants at a time very little ventilation is needed. There is also a heating/cooling vent supplied by the central heating/cooling system.

Medium - Organic
- Biomax shrimp compost: Chicken Manure, Cow Manure, Shrimp shell compost, D-Lime
- Vermiculite
- Bone Meal
- Earth Worm Castings
- Epsom Salts
- Lotsa, lotsa Perlite

Nutrition - Alaskan Fish Ferts 5-10-5, Epsom Salts

Containers - 27L(7G) rectangular, raised


Vegetation Cabinet - 60cm(2') Length X 60cm(2') Width X 90cm(3') Height

Lighting - 1 42W "warm" CFL + 1 23W "daylight" CFL

Ventilation - 2 80mm computer case fans. 1 intake, 1 output

Medium - Same as above without the Bone Meal

Nutrition - Muskie Fish Ferts 5-1-1, Epsom Salts

Containers - 16oz party cups, then onto whatever I have (usually 1-2G)

*As you can see this is a completely personal grow

The Strains - In my possession of seed stock, I have:
- Dutch Passion Passion #1 (Amstel Gold)
- Dutch Passion Hempstar (NL#5 X Haze)
- Willy Jack's Tangerine (Chronic X Cali-O)
- Willy Jack's Pacific Shark (Jade Mikado X Great White Shark)
- I also have many, many great bagseed strains that will be grown out with the seedbank genetics

Currently Flowering - I'm on day 27 of this current grow
Blueberry - I was gifted a clone and keeping up the lineage through cloning. I do not know the history of her genetics...but she is one killer, real deal Blueberry 2 are currently flowering.

Passion #1 - From Dutch Passion. I've had on and off success with this plant indoors. This will be the last shot indoors as the rest of the genetics will be saved for the possibility of future outdoor grows.
I would however like to make a more "indoor" friendly cross with this strain in the future.

Currently Vegging
Hempstar - The potent DP staple.

The Freeze - A delcious local outdoor bagseed.

Grape - From bagseed. I'm sure it's a seedbank strain, I just don't have any information on it because it's from a bag. Very grapey indica.

I'd love to welcome all the regulars back, and any new visitors to my thread to feel welcome also :smile:

Here come the first photos...Day 27 flower room

Hey - I think I know you - man, just toked some BLOOBERRY and I can't remember shite - I mean manure - I mean - now what was i talking about......

Nice start of a new years thread my friend! Love the way you summarize your op at the beginning - makes reference so easy... ( taking notes )

I gotta get me one of these newfangled strains that are just happy to be in some good dark soil without hammering them with some dead animals fermented poop Your blueberry looks luscious - I like muties - looks like a plant Charles Xavier would smoke!

Gonna put my feet up over here in the corner. Thx for putting a pointer to this thread in your last one!

C-ya l8r!

MGJ - I had a feeling you'd be the first one over here
Glad the link came in handy :smile: I also updated my sig links so you old guys don't get lost
I'm glad you like the X-man Blueberries This is the second time they've grown this way...could I be giving them too much N, or is this a normal trait of this pheno She's been on just plain water anyhow for a lil while.
I'm sure they'll produce some killer bud just like last time too, and this time I have some size on them to pull a decent yield

By all means put your feet up MGJ, you deserve it. First seat in the house. Plenty of room here in the Igloo.

Just wanted to remind everyone...there is no indoor plumbing in Igloos
Please use the outhouse

hey tml, looking good around here, hey maybe that passion was a hermie that pollenated the hempstar? how is she frosting up cause im actauly gonna to preserve all genetics but my dankest bogglegum in seed form, so ill be running seeds and clones of bogglegum until my new place, just like you....

all in all your setup is looking good, although ido remember that blueberry being danker maybe just my imagination, ive been getting some ultimate trichome coverage with a fan blowing right across the bulb and canopy.

what have you been feeding with lately?

Hi Everybody

The Budfather - I was thinking the same thing about the possible cross This plant seems to be straight up Passion #1, I dunno how I missed the obviousness of it The other 2 are definately sweet candy Hempstar. The smell sez it all
I remember the Blueberry being a little more progressed last time around this time too. I think it's because it hadn't fully switched back to a vegetation state last time, and it was Fall when conditions were more preferable for her.
Still just feeding with the Alaskan 5-10-5.
Glad to see you around

Insomniac - Glad to see you had an easy time finding your way over
Old thread was getting a little long...nicer to keep them annual too :smile:
Yeah..this snow is getting a little ridiculous my back is hurting from all the diggin out. At least it brought slightly warmer temps with it, just wish the winds would die off now.
Glad you like the pics
I reserved a seat for you...so, I guess your stuck here now till the storm blows over

Core - Thanks for checkin in. Keepin dibs on my posse here
Looks like you get upfront and centre for the continuation of this one.
Plants are just starting to take off, you got perfect timing!

Sleepy - Beauty! nice toque eh! I especially like the lil fuzzy ball thing on top
Efficiency is the way to go nowadays Sleepy...just trying to save the world 1 cannabis plant at a time
Don't worry, I knew MGJ would be in here scarfin all the good treats, so I put some away for when the other guests arrived (learned that trick from mom )
Thanks for stoppin in, glad you like the pics :smile:

Neptune - Welcome
I like that...blunt and to the point
Yes, I think I have established now that these BB's are very very N sensitive in flower. Seems the EWC in the buckets is enough N to supply these plants through the flowering stage.
I consider myself a very reserved feeder, so for these plants to get too much N, they must be ultra sensitive.
They have been only fed twice since I commenced flower, and looks like they will spend some time on straight water.
Glad you like the pics :smile:
Thanks for your diagnosis, Hope you'll stop by again sometime

Thanks for all the visits guys, hopefully we can make this a fun, interesting, and informative thread all year!
