Don't blame you there ;)

I'd love to hear how the crossing turns out. I wish I had a tent, I made my own of sorts by getting a T5HO hanging lamp kit and folding mylar blankets around it with coat hangers underneath to keep it from touching the plants. Does a pretty decent job, turns out. Make sure you post some pics when you get your tent going!

Gonna just start simple and breed 2 of my Spyder auto's together for the seeds and i'll collect pollen then for future use as well. I've got a closet separate from the grow that's now dedicated to that 2 plant project. Once males of others pop up I should already be able to cull that male spyder and use the closet for Cocoa Puffs and White 88 G13/Hashplant males. once I have the pollen and some reserve smoke(just ran out of all 4 of mine the same day 2 weeks ago AHHHHHHH) I'll figure out which clones will be bred and which will not. I've decided that I'm Gonna run a perpetual crop for a short time and then flower the mothers and save vegged cuts of each. Probably going to go with 8 Blue Dream per week for the first 6-8 keeping one or two clones from the 3rd week aside in veg for future mothers. by the 4th week the trainwreck SHOULD be ready to clone, so I'll start with 4 a week from her fro 4 weeks and 8 a week for 4 weeks after. doing the same thing as the Blue Dream by saving clones from week 3 in veg. Not going to think about the Spyder's or Cocoa Puff right now. I'm starting a few more of everything I got left but I am just going to see how they are. Cocoa Puffs is supposed to be a 10-12 week plant. so I may or may not clone one. I may just top the females a little late so I can use those cuts as clones... Like I said, I don't wanna think about it right now. lol too many things going on at once will overwhelm me and plain stress me the hell out.

DANK has lots of patients(not the medical kind) to grow 25 strains at once.

4 Total? that was my last grow... :) I got 6 right now soon to be more. and may lose one lady. but i'm not worried. just finished getting my seeds wet wrapped and bagged up. so i'm currently germing: 3 BCG Spyder, 3 Hazeman Seeds Cocoa Puffs, 3 Hazeman Seeds White 88 G13/Hashplant, and 2 of these bag seeds I got out of some shit my old street dealer called GDP. Though purple, I doubt real GDP. but growing anyway... FOR THE PRACTICE :) I know i'm crazy for starting 7 strains right now. but I don't care that much :) they'll look good.

IF I have 100% success I will have the following; 6 BCG Spyder's (one for auto solo contest), 3 Hazeman Cocoa Puffs, 3 Hazeman White 88 G13/hashplant, 2 possible PURP, 1 Delicious Seeds Cotton Candy, 1 DinaFem Blue Thai(if she pulls out of her rut), and 1 HSO Blue Dream cut from my last grow. Pre-clone I will have 17 plants. Yeah That'll look VERY GOOD :)

UPDATE: Ok so, here's the update on everything I got going on now. Start with equipment.. Fuckin douchbag ebay store JUST shipped my damn Microscope today. so it WONT be in tomorrow. Tent should be in by Friday. Plants are all doing good now. the little Blue Thai is finally growing. I got 2 sprouts of 3 for the AUTO contest. not sure which will be used. ALL 3 of the White 88 G13/Hashplant are about to break the surface. So far only ONE Cocoa Puffs is sprouting. The other 2 seeds don't seem to be doing anything but I plugged them anyway so they don't rot in water. ALL 6 of the clones are surviving SO far. none appear to be having ANY problems. we'll see tomorrow... I'll get some pictures up tonight.

Just transplanted the yellow bitch!...... Added an extra tsp. of BioThrive Grow to see if I can get her color to come back some. I'd hate to grow out a yellow plant.. haha. She's now in a 3gal grow-bag filled with ReadyGro.......Planted her right in the middle so that long stem is below the surface. I'm NOT worried about stem rot since I watered her yesterday and DID NOT water the medium I transferred her into. it was moist(bag just got opened) but I didn't do anything to the medium prior to planting her. USB Digi-scope came in today.. slightly shitty quality product however it was well worth the $25 I paid for it.... Nobody has any comments for me??!! lol. I didn't realize my shit looked THAT BAD! :) hahaha

oh good, that one definitely needed to be buried! LOL. i bet it'll be a lot happier. and when i transplant, i always water the entire thing, so the water creates a medium where the old coco and new coco can mix and kinda create a suction into the other.

how big is your tent? you're gonna have a shitload of plants on your hands lol. we have seven atm and it's insane... and two are autos LOL. our tent is a 4x4.

I just set up mine. 8'x4'. :) only using half at the moment because well I don't have anything really..... I've got 14 plants going 7 different strains. got more on the way that i'll be starting as soon as they arrive. Cloning the Blue Dream, Cotton Candy(when old enough), Blue Thai(same), and BOTH my Hazeman strains. probably along with the new strains i'm getting. I'm going to keep cutting rooting and planting in 3gal grow bags until the tent is full. then switch it over to HPS and flower the ladies. Gonna be using a separate closet for breeding my spyder auto's along with storage for male's until pollen is collected and then they go bye bye. once all the males are gone I will be able to clean the closet and store my rooted clones of each strain that I'm saving. that way I don't have huge plants sitting around just growing for 2-3 months. It'll give the little ones enough if not more than enough time for the rooted clones to produce PLENTY of offspring for the next batch.... and I'll just continue that for a little while. Work on these strains. Start my little breeding project. and see what I can come up with.

Only reason I DIDN'T water was because I watered her last night at like 11pm. and transplanted this morning around 11-12. I didn't want to overwater being so young and everything. got one stunted slightly already. :) I LOVE this new MH light i got. everything is SOOO short. compared to what i was getting before i think my space between nodes is half if not shorter.

Botanicare CocoGro(actually not even used anymore was the last little bit I had) and I just recently switched it up to ReadyGro for the perlite mix. Thinkin I should get more O2 to the root zone.... I have a pair of sunglasses hangin up in the tent actually... :) I figure once the lights(2-400w) are hanging above 3' then I should be using them.. I can only WISH right now for 1k's. Once I can grow a few plants all the way through without a single issue, I'll be able to upgrade. but it's more a waste of my money(electricity) if I can't get the full potential from each plant as of NOW. Isn't it?? I know I would yield more and denser buds.

You got 4k going now?! what size room If you don't mind my asking? Does wattage truly effect the denseness of the buds?

Yea,When im growing I use 4,and hell yea makes buds rock hard.a 600hps is around 90,000 a 1k is 130,000
Alot more lumens,but comes with ALOT more heat.

The 1ks ive found even below 3ft no popcorns,and getting 1.5 ozs from a single bud,thats rock hard.
I was using 600s and found out I could get a ballast kit 1k for just 92 bucks,1 went out so I ordered it and just used the cords from the 600.
So simple and cheap i did em all!
