Blackjack

bourbonandsin · #1 10-07-2009, 09:52 PM

After years of stating that we would never follow in the footsteps of our parents, my wife and I broke down and have started growing herb. We avoided doing this as we never wanted to be a part of our respective family businesses, but alas, we got tired of the sub-standard smoke being offered commercially. Thus begins our grow journal.

This posting is made retroactively, so please bare w/ us. Our crop is indoors due to the short grow season here, but we like the ability to control the variables. We cracked the seeds on Aug. 22nd. They are feminized Blackjack (I know, great strain, shitty choice of seeds) from Nirvana. They spent the first 30 days under 4 T12's, then went under the 400w MH. We are growing in a hydro system using GH 3-part. They are receiving 19 hrs. of light a day, and being fed 3 times during this period. Out of the 5 seeds we cracked, 4 are delightfully bushy. The other one will undoubtedly go hermie on us due to the amount of stress it has been under for the last few weeks. As information on this strain is sparse atm, we wanted to share our visual record of this grow in hopes that it might help others in the future. Welcome and feel free to comment.

First shots @ 28 days.

Here they are at 49 days from cracking. Seven weeks in and they are really taking off. Plant 001 is our problem child. We topped her more as an experiment to see how she'd handle the additional stress. If she doesn't take well to it in the next week, she gets chopped. If she surrvives, she is going into flower. The other plants could use the extra room anyway. The clones are doing well. A couple have appeared to have started rooting as we can no longer get them to slip in their cubes. Our excitment is building, and we can't wait to get them into 12/12. 'Till Next week.
