Blue Himalaya Deisels For dummies from The dummy

I have been growing autos in my attic for about two and a half months. with good results. I started with a 20 seed mix from ShortStuff. I have run out of those and will be starting a mixed sex run of BHD as soon as the seeds arrive. Here are a couple of pics of the girls I have now.View attachment 1328455View attachment 1328457View attachment 1328459View attachment 1328461View attachment 1328463

I got my tracking number today so they are on the way. In the mean time I guess I should share some of the details. I have about 35 bulbs ten 42watt and twenty five or so 23watt bulbs. I also picked up 3 cheap led panels from a friend for free. They didn't add much to his cooltube hps.

I have been using MG organic choice garden soil. It is for amending top soil and has no perlite in it. I can buy a 1.5 cubic foot bag at lowes for 8 bucks and a bag of perlite for about 12. I mix and store it in a rubbermaid tote. I will also add a cup and a half each of bone and blood meal. I will run this heads up against fox farms ocean forest when I start the BHD.

I just purchased some Blue Himalaya Diesal about a week ago also so i can't wait to see how yours turns out and now I can have something to compare mine too because I have not seen many other posts about Blue Himalaya Diesal. I only growing in a small 26.5"x 14.75"x 36.25" box using miracle grow moisture control and vermiculite mix, works good for me. Your setup is nice keep up with the good work. +Rep cause u growing Blue Himalaya Diesal

I have been looking for other peoples BHD grows but have only found a couple.. +R for finding mine

Did you order fem or reg?

I got them feminized from attitude. only 5 .... what light cycle u think is best? I was thinking 20/4... By the way im a first time grower indoor if you couldn't already tell haha.

Most of the auto growers say that 20/4 is best. I have been on 24/0 and they do fine.

Ok cool good to know. Keep updating. Very curious how yours turns out. I'll post some pictures soon once i get my seeds in.

Here are some time line pics from girls under constant lightView attachment 1328527

wow those got big really quick. Looks to me everything your doing is perfect and the plants look great. how much did you yeild from these or have you not harvested them yet?

I have harvested 3 so far. They average around an oz. one of them came to be known as stupid. It was a headbuster

wow nice. I hope I can yeild at least half that with my Blue Himalaya Diesal. Keep up the good work!

I have been using these nutes and will keep using the same with the Blues. Earth juice grow, earth juice catalyst, fox farms cha-ching and superthrive.For the first two weeks they will get only water with a couple of drops of superthrive per gallon. Weeks 3 and 4 they will get the earth juice every second watering about a tablespoon and a half each per gallon. After that they get those nutes at about half strength along with a half a teaspoon of cha-ching. Of course the week or so before harvest they get water only.

I got this idea from one of the pros out there. Full Duplex, over at the art of the auto thread. The principle of oxygenating water is proven in all DWC setups. Why shouldn't it be beneficial for soil grows. I picked up a aquarium airpump, tubing, and air stone at wal-mart for under 10 bucks. I just plug the line to the pump and the stone to line and drop it in my gallon water jug.I need a splitter so I can keep two jugs bubbling, one for water and one for nutes

Im impressed. I might have to try that out myself. I was wondering... where do you buy your nutrients? online? or at local store?

I get mine at a local store. but the prices are the same at amazon.com

they are looking crazy good man like the nice star shape pattern they seem to be doing

Yeah man I am glad I did the mix seeds my first time out with the autos. I has given me a look at a couple of wildly different looking and smelling plants. kinda like an appetizer sampler.

whats the smoke like on them blues and the stone cause you dont always get what your read about
