We started growing marijuana as just an experiment and at the time a thought that maybe we could make some money off it why not. We started it all off with some seeds. The seeds were not anything special a during this time i was dealing with middys an so we just toke a bunch of those an put then in between a wet paper towel and put them in a dark place within a few days we started to see root. We let the seeds go until the root was about a half an inch long. Then we planted as i recall about 30 rooted seeds into little stirifoam cups. I went to walmart an got a little indoor grow light. the next few days we just waited excitedly for the seeds to sprout. I remeber when we had the first one sprout it felt like a great acoplishment haha. After about a week an about 70% of the cups sprouted i decided that it was time to buy a better light so i went to our local grow store.(I would not recommend a local grow store) At the time i didnt no of any other place to buy a grow light. So i went in there described the space and he sold me a 400 watt hps (high pressure sodium) for $400.I also bought a bag of fox farm soil which is good but at this store it was $25 for a 2 cubic ft bag. (walmart soil works just fine) Which later i come to find out that he suckered me because you can get a 1000 watt light for less then that on any online site so for all of u beginners out there be careful!!
That was just the beginning now its gravy buds all the time i guess we all go though the rough time before being able to grow good buds theres so many things you have to account for its like a full time job if u real want to do it up. i have been keeping track of all of my crop right from veg to flower daily journal entrys just for my own records and to try to be as efficent as possible now hopefully well be able to help anyone in need. This crop that i am currently farming in on day 48 of flowering it is super silver haze and the buds are covered with resin crystles they sparkly in the thousand watt. theres about 50 of them so pots have 2 in them just to maximize the space and it has worked well.

Jan. 25th. It is day 49 of flowering and i can tell that by leaving the door open to allow more co2 has really helped the bud become fuller which is great. I watered yesterday ive been on the everyother day to water just because i dont want to over water and by every other day they seem to be doing just fine. They are covered with trichomes that seem to sparkel more and more each day. The projected harvest was feb 9th but i believe that we will be going past that date.

Today is jan.26th it is the 50th day of flowering. yester day i got 2 more bags of soil for our next grow i have been getting soil like every other day bringing up on at a time, they get heavy. I carry them up in my old lax bag to cover up whats in the bag. idk about u but if i saw someone bringing soil into there apt during winter id be thinking that y i throw it in the bag it works well and it is easyer to carry. so far iv gotten 7 bags of soil im guessing that im goin to need about 3 more bags because were going bigger next crop. But this crop is looking good i didnt water yesterday ill most likely water today depending on there situation ill try to get pics up im new to this please bear with me. Another project that iv been working on is my bush it is 12 clones that i put all in one 3 gallon bucket it is one of my mothers. so far it is working well. the bush has been veging for about 2 months and it looks great it looks better then some plants that are in a pot by there selves ill keep everyone up dated on the condition of the plant i just dont no haw it would flower if anyone has done it before tips greatly apprieciated. thanks have a great day.

Today is day 51 of flowering and they look great my girl forgot to water y
yesterday so when the light came on they were a little water deprived i got
on that right away an within 15m everything was all good. I no that this
one isnt over yet but i cant stop thinking about the next harvest an how im going to make it bigger and better, dont get me wrong im stoked for these buds cause there goin to be great i guess its like an a.d.d thing haha. I did notice that one of my mother plants probly should be transplanted it looks as some root bonding is occuring i can tell the leavess at the top are hanging a little, and the leaves are turning lighter color if anyone thnks it may be something else tips greatly appriecated thanks have a great day.

Today is day 52 of flowering. Last night i was on the site and went into advanced growing i clicked on the first thing that caught my eye an that was super cropping i new that you could tie them down but i didnt no u could bend them like that real easy with ur fingers i would have done it a long time ago. I did it to one of my mothers her top stem and just by what ive seen in the past few hours it seems that i bent it fine. Also last night i read up on making bubble hash and decided that ill be doing that this harvest and every harvest after that. OOO i love this site hahaha!!!!!!!! and the ladies look sexier then ever!!!!! im not watering today i watered yesterday. And yesterday i put more soil on top of the mother that looked like it was being effected by root bonding it does look a little better i believe she will be fine.

Today is day 53 of flowering. I see more and more pistils turn amber. but i dont judge the ripness by those i look at the trichomes when about 50% of them have turned amber then i will no it is the right time to harvest. As an experiment i clipped off a little bud and put it in a little purple food coloring i no that there are mix opionons on this but i just want to see if it works and how it smokes.

Todays day 55 of flowering. the buds look good the trichomes just look sticky. iv notice that there has been a decrease in gnates which is sweet i think its because wen the lights off it gets to cold for them. it doesnt seem to be effecting the buds. The mothers are doing fine i have super croped 2 branches and they are growing fine no complications it is good practice for future crops. The little bud that i put in the food coloring by the stem turned purple its pretty sweet its drying now im looking forward to seeing if it smokes well.
