OK, Welcome back for another grow!!
I am originally from marijuana.com going by the user name kruseman. I learned alot from this sight when I first joined in Aug of 2003 and met alot of cool people as well. I split time between here and there now so I will bring my grow journal to here for you guys to enjoy!!!
This one is not to far off from my last grow, but with some major and minor improvements!!
First this grow will take place in a different spot than the last. It is a 10 x 14 size bedroom. We moved the thermostat inside the room from the house central a/c unit. It is a 2 bdr 1 bath split duplex. The other side of the duplex is accupied by my buddy. It is also a 2 bdr 1 bath. He lives in one side and the grow room is in the other. It works out perfect because the whole duplex is owned by a "silent" partner who rents to two different people. So the grow room side is non-accupied (by humans at least,lol).
Any how, we will be using an 8x4 ebb & flow table with a 50 gal res. One pump for filling and one and one for circulation. We also added a large air pump and an airstone to the bottom of the res!!
This time for sure it is 100% Mazar!! I know because I took the clones with my partner. We ended up selecting 64 of the 70 clones and are using the remaining 6 for mothers. I had 80 last time and barley pulled out 4lbs. I would not grow a sativa and an indica with that many plants together again. The sativa's deffinetly hogged the light/nutes and took alot away from the indica. I was happy with the results but feel I can do better with less plants, better conditions and starting them on 12/12 no where near as tall. We found that growing them that big in veg and then slammin them all together to flower just caused a serious canapy effect and cut out the bottom half of the plant.
We took the clones and gave them 10-12 days to get nice root growth. I use 1" rockwool cubes and the tray and dome method. I get 99% success rate with this method. After 12 days or so I let them sit under the floro's for a couple of days to acculmate to the air and soaked in a light nute solution. We then transplanted them into 4" pots with more holes drilled in them and filled with clay pebbles.
We have Co2 in the room along with a new addition of a dehumidifier.
We will also be trying General Hydroponics new All-in-One grow/bloom nutes solution. Sorry bottle is not here in front of me but I think it is like 7-10-6 or something like that. I believe if you add up the numbers on the GH Micro/Grow/Bloom you get the number for the All-in-One. When it comes time we will use GH Florolicious Bloom Stimulant. Lets see........ I think that about covers it. We are working on an exhaust fan but may have to switch out the hoods to do air cooled hoods. Oh yeah, we are using 3-1000watt HPS lights.
We put them in at about 700ppm and the pH of 5.7. Lights are about 3 feet away to get them used to HID's. Tuesday marks a week on 12/12 so we will lower then. Also have mylar that has to go up.
So to sum it all up, we have 64 Mazar clones which started 12/12 on June 2, 2004!! 5.7 pH.... 700ppm..... RH 52%......temp Lights on-79-82 ...lights off 72-78.......It will not stray to far from the temp and humidity. we will add the dehum. around the 3rd or 4th week. Co2 comes on at lights on for 2hrs and then on/off every 15 minutes till lights out. Table is flooded 4 times throughout light cycle. Once every 4 hours. The table floods for 20 min each time. We will continue to raise the ppm so I will keep you posted on that!!
Alright then here's some pics of the grow!!!
These first few pics were taken on June 2nd, the day they were put in......
these pics were taken tonight
Same plant as above 6 days later.......definetly growing!!!......
Alot more room for all the plants this time! Should be a better show visually this time. Much easier access to the whole table this grow which is a major ++++
Ok then that about does it for tonight......I have not been online much lately, man alot of new journals and old ones to catch up on!!!!
Later ya'll, enjoy the grow
