Finally, I can begin my long awaited return! I have been unable to grow for over a year. I first began growing indoors in a C-13 at never looked back.
I will never forget the first strain I grew. Dutch Passion Blueberry feminized. Here she was at 56 days!
I owe that to Maliboo. My knowledge of indoor cultivation came from him.
From there I began to grow comercially for about 18 months. I had 8 600w. This was the "trainer grow" to hone my skills.
Some Stardust 13 by Maliboo
Check out this monster... Golden Skush (freebie from Seedsdirect)
Then I chilled out and went back to cabinet growing...
And now, FINALLY, I am going to grow in a C-13 (or the closest thing I can find at Home Depot, a ClosetMaid, slightly not as deep) under 250 watts in soil, SOG. I will have a seperate veg/mother cab. using a 24" wide 6 bulb T5 florescent lamp to light it.
I will be using Fox Farm Grow and Bloom OR Tiger Bloom, I haven't decided yet. In the early stages, standard, I use no nutrients and 1ML Superthive per gallon of water. I do use tap, just for a few extra micros. I use Fox Farm Organic Soil and I add Pearlite and Vermiculite by eye, so there is a VERY airy mixture. I like my soil EXTRA airy. Not so much for drainage, but for the good gas exchange and the ease that Oxygen can reach the root zone when the pots dry... I've found that along with proper re-potting methods, this really increases root mass. But enough lecturing. ON WITH THE GOODS!!!
I've germinated 5 Resivoir Seeds Sour Diesel IBL, 6 Dutch Passion Orange Bud, and put 1 South African Durban Poison X Skunk #1 (a freebie from the Boutique) right into soil.
I had 100% germination on the SD IBL and the DP OB, But I lost one transplanting helping one out of his shell... Which is why I planted the S.A. DP X SK#1.
I've made a Rubbermaid Seedling/Clone chameber with some tube floros on the top and a few (3 24w) CFL's hanging in it.
And lastly, here are the little ones still sleeping waiting to open thier eyes...
So, I hope you enjoy watching my grow. If anyone has any questions don't hesitate to ask! I'm also planning a cross between Orange Bud and Sour Diesel, Orange Diesel.
