Exclamation Yourlocal420's first interactive grow.
Hello everyone or should I say "anyone". I just received my packages of seeds today. I have more seeds than room to probably grow them all! (I hate it when this happens!) So this is where your help comes in. I have done journals on other forums and learned a lot of information. However RIU is by far the best site I have been on so I only post here now. Awhile back I was going to move a few of my grows from other journals here. Well long story short between lost pics and just smoking so much it never completely materialized.


So this is where I stand now. I have a couple of good grows under my belt and am tooling up to do another one. I grow out of a closet that is 5ft wide 2 1/2 foot deep and about 8 ft tall. I use a 2ft T-5 with both blue and red grow bulbs for veg and use a 400 hps to flower. In the past I have used GH Flora, Micro, and Bloom. (lucas formula) for nutes.

For grow tubs I have 2 8gal stealth bubblers, 3 5gal bubble buckets, and 1 18g bubble tub. Of course I cannot fit all of this in my little room but I have several options on how I can grow.

Now for seeds I have
5 g13 labs power skunk regular,
1 g13 labs Northern Lights fem,
1 g13 labs Durban poison fem,
5 greenhouse seeds Arjan's Strawberry Haze fem,
5 Barney's Farm Violator Kush fem,
1 Lowryder seeds autoflowering Diesel Ryder regular,
1000 Dr. Chronic's Critically Smashed that is Critical Mass X White Rhino.


I kinda want to do something a little creative and different. I am going to leave it up to you viewers and fellow stoners what I grow. I dont care what I grow or how I grow (just as long as I can use what I have for equipment) I just want to do something to give something back to the people that helped me get started growing.

I promise it wont be a "lame duck" thread I intend to get as detailed as everyone wants me to. I have no job to speak of so I have all day to play.

So I will leave this for now and get my room cleaned and disinfected and wait a couple of days to see if this peaks anyone's interest. I love to hear feedback and answer questions as long as it's civil. So peace for now hope to hear from someone interested in this.

Other than the power skunk they are all females! LOL Yea that would definately be different. Unfortunately I dont think my 400W hps would give me enough light to justify burning that many seeds. Thanks for the idea though. Anyone else have ideas????

Default The room is finally clean
I never would have thought that such a small room could take so long to clean. I put new plastic down and repainted my dingy walls with flat white ceiling paint that I had left over from remodeling and WOW is it bright in there now! Every piece of equipment is wiped down and I even put a new bulb in my HPS light. I thought it was loosing its poop so I thought it would be good to have a spare. I tried both bulbs and they are within 100 lumens of each other so maybe it was just the room.

I was hoping I was going to have a few requests but no big deal. I am going to sleep on this and probably start germing tomorrow.

I have never done a SCROG yet so I am kinda leaning towards germing 1 Violator Kush and 1 Arjan's Strawberry Haze and growing them into different screens right next to each other and see how it works out. I'll post pics of the room tomorrow and see if I have any new ideas from anyone else. Peace

Yea, I still have a bunch of shirts like that. They are in near new condition cause (like you) there was only a select few places I would wear them.

Ok my seeds cracked within 24 hours and have popped up within 48 hours. Just for shits and giggles I tried rockwool instead of my usual rapid rooters. I'll tell you one thing my opinion of rockwool isnt too great right now. The Kush popped its head out and shucked its shell last night. Today its little leaflets are kinda yellowed on the ends. The haze looks very spindley and doesnt want to do much. I think I can attribute this to a little bit of a ph problem. I soaked the rockwool overnight in 5.5 ph r/o warer. I hope my babies get better.

Default Change of plan!
My strawberry haze that looked terrible tried to shuck its shell and there was this brown crusty shit on it that wouldn't let the beginner leaves open up. I tried to take the crusty shit off cause it looked like the seedling was going to die anyway. I took it off and left it in my propagation dome and the next day it was brown and laying over.

I got pissed off cause I thought I lost a seedling so I germed a durban poison female, northern lights female, and another strawberry haze female. I put the seeds in moist paper towels and placed in a ziplock bag and put them on my seedling mat. After they cracked I put them in my rapid rooters instead of rockwool. I looked today and it looks like they are all going to pop out. I was going to take out the other strawberry haze that was in rockwool and it looks like it is going to live too. It looks kinda sick but I'll try to baby it back.


I'll post pics when there is somthing worth looking at. But so far this is what I got going

1 violator kush
1 northern lights
1 durban poison
2 strawberry haze

Hopefully everything will stay alive!

Default Day 15 (germing included)
Room stats
PH 5.6
Temp 75
PPM 275
RH 45%

Ok put the babies in the tubs. I have had the Violator Kush and the Northern Lights in bubble buckets for about 5 days now. I have been waiting for the Arjan's Strawberry Haze to get bigger and grow roots or some type of vegetation.

The haze didnt do shit till I turned on my big light in the room and Trish(the taller one) stretched terribly. I named the other Pinky cause I will be lucky if it gets bigger than my pinky. It grew 2 leaves overnight.

The pics are of my room, the bubble buckets. The first plant is my Violator Kush, the 2nd is the Northern Lights, and the other 2 are of my Strawberry Haze plants.
