Default My first grow
This is my first official grow. I live in a two bedroom apartment, and converted the 2nd bedroom to a 2 stage veg/flower cycle. it is a 10x12 room and inside the room is a 5x7 homemade room with pvc, tarp, and canvas, and the closet is the veg room. all hydroponics. air cooled 1000w hps for flowering, carbon filter, 2x vortex duct fans, one input, one output. input air is on a timer for 4x a day, that is how often the room is updated with fresh air.
seeds:
larger plants: white widow: amsterdammarijuanaseeds.com
smaller plants: troublemaker and super lemon haze: dr. chronic.
Am in week 4 now. Will update week 1, 2, 3, and 4 with pictures.

Default Week 1
This is the first week after germination. These are the white widow from amsterdammarijuanaseeds.com
I started in canna soil, but then as you can see in the next couple of weeks switched to hydro before it was too late.

Here you can see I switched to homemade hydro setup. The white widow is on the left, and the troublemaker and super lemon haze are on the right in the picture of both containers.

Default Week 3
Week 3. Mixing the plants because of space issues. Have been setting up flowering room during the 3 weeks. The larger plants-white widow-are not feminized and so I am going to start flowering them to determine sex after another week (week 4). The other two strains are feminized so I am crossing my fingers with those.

Default Week 4
Well the flowering room is finished, except for the CO2 setup. I have an outvent and invent from the tent to the window, window locked by pvc pipe (extra).
I have now started flowering the 4 white-widow (from seed, all are from seed) to determine sex. Then I will pick the best female (variables to be determined) and keep her for a mother plant to clone.

Default Update.
Things are going really well. That is all. The large sativa got cut down, and hung to dry for about 6 days, then paper bagged. It is in the paper bag now. The other two, super lemon haze, still have time left. One has 1 week, it is being flushed right now, the other has about 2-3 weeks until flushing starts.


The sativa nug has been tested and is very nice. Me gusta mucho. The last picture is of my current vegging plants. My plan: I am building an adjustable scrog right now, which i can add width and length to, and also I will have it on a pulley system attached to the ceiling as to make things much easier. I am going to start flowering the vegging plant on the left in about 3 weeks, and until then just keep topping and trimming trying to keep it wide and short. I will then lower the screen over the plant and weave through. Approximately one month after this one starts flowering, I am going to take another out of the veg room and start doing the exact same thing. So, every month another one will come out and one will come in. I will have two screens setup attached to the ceiling.

This is the progression of my system, it's been a fun and creative process. It will continue to be fun and creative, as long as some very unfun and uncreative people don't decide to put an end to my hobby to feed their own self enjoyment of watching others fall. Updates in the next two weeks about yield and smoke and such. Oh, and I have so far harvested 2 OZ's from the popcorn buds to the one sativa plant, 1 O each. My estimate is that after the main harvest, there will be a total of 6-8 Oz, including the first harvest. That is neither conservative or optimistic, but realistic. Good day.
