Okay. so this is my first grow jornal ever! it's an exciting day in my eyes.. now i can share my fair ladies with the RIU community (pics coming soon). no lie: i consider this place home

So here is my details;

Grow medium: Soil
Area: Indoor closet
Light: 68watt + 42watt + four 23watts= 202 watts of CFL
Seeds: Bag Seed lol
PH: unknown (no tester)
Temps: 70F day 50F night
Veg Nutes: Miracle Grow Organic choice NPK 8-0-0
Bloom Fertz: Expert Gardener Flowering plant food NPK 10-15-10


Well so far so good... I am 3 weeks into the flowering 12/12 cycle and my largest plant already is showing a red hair?? is that usual? I will show pics when i feel the feds aren't swooping over my head.

No bud formation yet, but hairs are widespread.

My other girl (who i believe is sativa dominant) had preflowers but just today the pistols popped out of the calyxes on the branches(oh yeah..)

My smallest mj tree appears to be an indica. i concluded this from it's compact growth pattern and wide leaves. I'm believing this one will mature first, but my largest girl already has a few red hairs that I mentioned.

I believe this means the bigger one (who may be a hybrid) will finish before her younger sister, but i thought indicas matured quicker. I guess I'll have to wait for the resin to appear..

Okay Here's my pics?
Does this look good or bad??

Yeah it's lookin all good. everytime i turn the lights on the hairs grow more numerous. i may have to flower for 12 weeks and see what happens. lets see were in the third week, and drawing close to week 4 since 12/12 schedule. I added up the lumen count to 13300 lumens so hopefully thats enough to create either some rock hard nugs or some fluffy budz lmfao

Had to murder a grasshopper on my beautiful sativa last night stupid bug. I think insects think I'm blind or something. Saw a stupid black insect floating around my lights this mornings, but no insecticides or pesticides will be used. Molasses does a nice job of getting rid of critters

this one looks like how my white widow grew

Oh that would be so sweet if i ended up with a white widow from bagseed!! lol

Well here I go again messin around with the top soil. They tell you let your plant go nitrogen deficient in the process of flowering, but all the new growth is just too tempting. Well the Miracle grow molasses is derived from sugar beets, and i plan to use it through my flush cycle. Anyways...

What I did: - to my 2 largest plants I added a 12-6-6 fertilizer to the top of the soil that also has boron, zinc, and manganese included.
- to my smallest girl; since i mixed the above^ fertilizer into the pot already when I transplanted; I decided to add a nice coat of fertilizer consisting of spagnum moss, perlite, and vermiculite. The NPK was 8-24-8

these are time release nutes, but experimenting never hurt anyone. I just want them to make it to harvest.


ALRIGHT SO HERES THE PLAN (be quiet)

Before I chop down my ladies in the near future, I want to take the branch that produces the most bud from each mother
and have another round of grow journal for the united growers of RIU

The babez are still lookin good. just noticed the resin oozin out of those beautiful inflorescents. just gettin baked right now..
- note- 1 Girl is getting too huge for my area..
should I lst??
let's just see if she stops growing(i don't think so)

12/12 has been in effect for 4 weeks.. yea
You know how male pollens floats around in the air and germinates with female pistols. I've been watchin 4 hermies, yet I have 3 fair ladies!

Well like the pollen does... i just noticed sparkly resins floatin around in my grow op

I think each plant is absorbing all the extra ooze into itself, and obtaining even sticker surfaces..

week 4 is wonderful...

Okay here are some more great bag seed picks. if any look familiar to you, please help me verify strains. I took the pics wit a phone but they don't look too bad:
