it really is quite pathetic but it did improve growth
My First Grow!! Nirvana Short Rider !! OUTDOOR GROW
So this is my first grow and its gonna be nirvanas short riders. These little babies are feminized & autoflowering!!
I ordered the seeds from nirvana on 30th of April (they were shipped on 4th of May) and got them on 7th of May, so only 7days from ordering !!IMG_20120515_162140.jpgIMG_20120518_191453.jpg my babies at age of 4days
I ordered 10seeds & took 8 of them and saved 2 for later uses. 8/8 germinated after 2 days (9th of May) and sprouted in 3days after planting (12th of May)
The plan was to grow them in a greenhouse for 2weeks and by that stage they would be able to survive in a forest just about 15kilometers/10miles from where I live. ( and start to look a bit suspicious so i would anyway have to transplant them) at night time I took the plants inside under a pathetic 15w growlight (didnt really have any extra money or time to buy better ones but it was okay for like 7hours a night and in the morning back to the greenhouse for some real sun) so they would get approx. 24hours a day of light so they would grow fast before transplanting! Cuz in where i live the sun shines for like 20hours a day in the summerps. Scandinavia.

2weeks of greenhouse growing went fast, the plants were not so big as I wanted but they were okay. Almost all of them still have showed sex and appears to be female!! 8/8 germinated&sprouted&are female = AWESOME!!!
heres a pic of one at age of 12 or 13 days, I can see some signs of a female, am I right ???

So two weeks has passed and its time to transplant!! (23rd of May)
I bought 30liters/8gallons of good soil for flowers ( checked the nutrient levels & ph and they were perfect!) so it was almost 4liters of soil per plant/1gallon per plant. I think it was enough because the soil in the forest was quite good so i didnt think i need more than that !

Gonna go see how my babies are doing in few days!! tomorrow its gonna be 3weeks from germination!! i was thinking of going to visit my little girls on thursday! or maybe friday! so more pics coming this weekend!!
ANY IDEAS, SUGGESTIONS & CORRECTIONS ARE WELCOME!! i am a first time grower
Im pretty sure all these feminized seeds turned out as they promised - FEMALES !!
heres a picture riu.jpg ive just been wondering if they are 100% feminized cuz ive been hearing that sometimes all feminized seeds are not really feminized... but im sure these all are because all the 8 plants are showing hairs like this one in the picture
great job smokey. there looking real nice my friend. ive no exp in outside cultivation so as advice goes ive not much to say. just wanted to say nice job and wish you all the best..
Thank you for your kind words spitsbuds!! Feel free to follow my journal if interested!!Originally Posted by spitsbuds
As i ordered 10seeds from nirvana and only planted 8, i was wondering should I germinate & plant the remaining 2, cuz anyway the next time I would be able to grow those would be next summer.....
of those 8 that I planted earlier im hoping to get something like +10grams/½oz per plant, even though I know that I might get even more but this is my first grow and 80-100grams/3-4oz would be awesome !! anyway Im probably gonna germinate the remaining 2seeds in few weeks.. not sure yet though..
Short rider is a great plant with a nice taste. I just harvested one plantKeep in mind that the Nirvana flowering timeframe estimation might not be accurate.
I've subscribed with your thread. Keep it safe & take care of your babies. Good luck!
