Hey guys,

You are all welcome to ask questions or comment at any time on here, so please do. I do this (keeping a journal) to share and learn... and I can't learn from doing it without your help. Support is appreciated too, even if you don't know anything, please hang out and say hello. This grow journal is going to be good. Lots of pictures, videos, good times, and good buds.

I grow from clones I get at a store in Hollywood (i'm in so cal) http://www.lamedicalmarijuana.com/ For this grow I'm going with Casey Jones (Sour Diesel x Trainwreck) and Headband (Sour Diesel x OG Kush). There will be 2 plants of each strain, so 4 plants total. Each will have their own 5 gallon bucket. There will be 4 screens, one for each bucket/ plant. The plants will be surrounding my two lights, a 250w Metal Halide and a 400w High Pressure Sodium. The lights will be vertical in a home made cool tube type thing. I have a 6" 435 cfm fan to cool the lights, and the hot air will be vented out the roof.

The idea for this type of grow came from a fellow RIU member smoote1987 - Here is a link to his grow that inspired my 4 site vetical dwc:

Blueberry, DWC, Full Grow, DIY Nutes, Vertical Scrogg, 100w mh, 150 hps

So... I'd like to tell you what's going on. I just finished what you could call my second grow (purple kush). I don't consider it a real grow because I started the purple kush clones in dixie cups, they spent most of their life under 60w of flouros, then moved into the closet when my first grow finished (Hindu Skunk & White Widow). That is why I am calling this vertical grow #2.

Here are links to both those grows:

JigFresh's Grow 1.2 - Purple Kush clones - closet DWC - 650w hps/mh

Before anyone gets too excited there are no plants yet. There won't be any plants for a while. Why start a grow journal then? because there will be plants soon enough, and this journal will be here long after all the harvest is smoked. Plus this way I can have the whole damn story in one place, from concept to chop.

In case you can't tell I talk alot, but I try to keep most of it on topic or entertaining. I hope you like reading. I like learning new words too, so anyone that puts something good in their post gets bonus points.

I'm getting tired at the moment, so I'll post more soon. I really just wanted to get the ball rolling.

Now... This is complete shameless marketing on my part, but in an effort to get people to check out my journal here is what I have done in the other grows:


Purple Kush -



Hindu Skunk -



White Widow -



Big Harvest -




If you are still reading... good job. I look forward to having you all along for the ride. I really love Rollitup and I really love growing pot. So glad I have a wonderful wife who suggested I start growing.

On with the show. I'll show some pics of the new setup in the next post... deal?

Jesse, the good Dr. Greenhorn, Hulk nugs... glad to have you here. While the rest of us were chatting tahoe took the most comfortable chair, haha.

Glad to have you all in the high rise penthouse (thanks for that).

I've been making room for plants in my closet. I just figured it out and I am going to have roughly 25 sq ft of grow space/ screen space. My first screen was just over 7 square feet.... so, jumanji it is going to be. I swear if a tiger jumps out of the closet one day I'm just shutting things down.

My ballasts are mounted, the shelf is out, and the fan will be placed above the door, almost against the roof.

One more thing about this grow... it is going to be interesting because I want to leave the plants for 11 days, completely alone, door shut for 11 days. I am thinking of doing this week 5-7 of an 8-9 week veg. My plan is to rig an extra rez that can feed them all, and I am also thinkng of only giving them the 60w of flouros for light, so they don't drink to much and grow out of control without me around. It will be like a cloudy week (thanks kevin). We'll discuss this more later.

Here are some pics of the whole thing...

Oh and smoote, you have the right to any chair in the house, but I figure you will be up here with me working on the setup, so I didn't reserve one specially for you. I'm stoked to see how your idea will work out not in a laundry closet.

Not exactly sure what you mean... but I hope you aren't offended. I was meaning to compliment you on not only your ability to recognize the penthouse as the place to meet, but you spotted the nice chair right off.

Unless I'm mistaken you have been growing longer than any of the rest of us. Plus, it's not as if the rest of us are miserable, but... I thnk anyone would be crazy not to change places in life with you. So I think I can speak for everyone when I say we are better of with you hanging around.
