Journey Into The Endless Sky!!!

Alright before we start the jouney of the endless sky, he is some pics of what we have been up to. It all stared with a plant our friend gave us. We grew this up under window light to this size, we will call her #1 (95% sure it's romulin.(pic1).

Before we flowered #1 we took some clones.(pic2),built a veg room using 4/4foot fl= 2xaqua light 2x cool white 40 watts a piece. Upgraded our flower closet to a 150 watt hps with 2/2 foot 20 watt fl tubes.(pic3)

alright! some of my pics were too big so i'll just skip em for now. pic2 in the closet you can see our homeade clone bubbler system that didn't work well for us. we have 90+% rate with peat balls and stim root powder, so will stick too it.

During the time that our original plant was flowering we planted some bagseed know to be of a Purple strain (2 males=1 female).pic3-4.

We decided that because some of our romulin clones were the same age as the purple we would try to do a pollination of our weaker rom clones. pic 5 is a random pic of 4 rom clones(some topped some not).

and on.....

Another thing we tried with one of the Romulin clones was to stress train it by tying the branches down.(one broke accidently as you can see in (Pic1). pic from above (pic2) these got transplanted into a bad mix before flower and turned real yellow. I think we've got it under control now...

(Pic3) The purple plant pictured earlier was harvested and put back in veg for a few weeks so we could take clones and reflower the original.(Pic4).

(Pic5) is the purple at 2 day in flowering .....agian..it has the side branch tied down.

Ok so somewhere in there we decided we should maybe spend some money on real beans that will suit or closet(s)etc. Our choice Endless Sky from Dr.greenthumb. indica dominent and apparently flowers in 42-45 days. shit i'm happy if it's really 55 lol.

Were going to try to get a perpetual harvest going in the S.o.G method. thinkin 3-5 plants from clones every 2 week give or take(prob give).

We started with a poor mix and this is what they did. (Pic1).

transplanted into better soil.(Pic2). Group pic (Pic3).

(Pic4) is a seed that germinated from our pollinating the Romulin with the Purple type plant.And heres what we veg them all in now.(Pic5).

Ok I'm gonna start updating my journal from here on out 1-2 times per week as these finnish up. All these plant have been flowered in this 2.5x2.5 closet with 1/150 watt hps, and 2/27 watt cfls.

Questions and comments welcome.

Looks like the ES likes the new soil.I started mine off in low quality soil too and I think I'll be doing the transplant thing, too.Just another lesson learned.Keep up the good work.

Did another transplant so here is an update!

(pic1). this is a pic of what I'm growing in. The Ratio in the bag sizes is basically the mix we use. In the pic is our 1 gallon containers. We removed the bottom inch or 2 and taped it back together so Later when we need another transplant we will just pull the tape-remove bottom and place on top of another 1 gallon bucket filled with medium.(double potting method) will save us space in our flower room.

(Pic2). we looked at the roots the other day and figured they needed a transplant.25-30 days beer cup.

(Pic3). This is how our veg cab looks now after fillin all those 1 gallon pots. Who knew? we can fit 10 pots in there perfectly. Also bought another timer for the veg cab lights, we have been on 24 lights on. Would like to gradually bring it down to 18/6. See if there is ne difference in veg growth.+

Looked into my records to see how long the 1 plant has been in our flower room. 7 weeks!!! will try to put some pics in next update of that one. ALMOST DONE. wooo hoooo lol.

(Pic4). heres another shot of the flower room.

Nice operation, mexiblunt.And they all look pretty good, too.Is that the shape of the flowering plant or did you train the stems? I hope theres lots of ladies in there for ya! P.S. How did you look at the roots?Just pop the plant out and look?

Ok it's been a couple days since we transplanted to the 1 gallon pots.

(Pic1). Still having troubles with 1-2 of the seedlings. The real bad pictured right side was like this before the transplant, so I'm not sure what's up. Gonna try to check the soil ph tonite when I get home from band rehearsal. Looks like overwatering prob i know it's very unlikely as it was very dry when transplanted.

This plant also has had wierd looking leaves from the get go.

On a Lighter note,these pic are for Jaymes.

(pic2) you can kinda see the new leaves right beside the horn looking things.

(Pic3),(pic4) The plant that we trained started by clumsy hands and the branch broke and was lying on the side of the pot. When it looked like it would live we decided to tie the rest of the branches down. you can see the ropes going to the bucket. once the plant got bigger we needed to add the cardbord ring so we had something wider to tie to.

(pic5) heres the one that almost done. 1-2 weeks left. This one was put into flowering at a height of 5.25 inches and had 5 nodes. It's not that huge but has real solid nugs and nice smell.
