8 seeds started in 32oz styro cups with FFOF with added perlite. Had 5 Super Lemon Haze seeds leftover from last year and 4 sprouted 2 days ago. Meantime 10 more slh showed in the mail with 1 tangerine dream freebie and so added 3 SLH and the tangerine, to go under 2X600 for flower. Last 4 sprouted this morning and are shaking off the seed cover. Started under shop light flo's for sprout and in a few days will move to the veg room under 400mh. I always germ/sprout in the bathroom where i can jack up the humidity easily. Veg till middle/late September and then 12/12. I've grown SLH many times (Luv it!!), great high, big yields, big odor, good pheno variety and easy to grow, with no hint of a hermie ever. Tangerine dream, probably wouldn't have started that one had I read the reviews here. We'll see if it stays in the garden?

They are under 400mh and because the light was a bit high, they stretched to let me know. Currently at 14" and may end up around 12" above plants. The fluoros actually burned a couple leaves on one plant because i used the spray bottle to water and got some drops on that plant and put under lights before it dried. All will get topped and trained and will see if flower will be 2x600 or 3x600. Hard to believe these little sprouts will fill this room shortly! All comments, even negative, are welcome.

3 weeks, 5 were topped 3 days ago and will top/fim other 3 later today. 8, 7 gal pots full of soil and stuff, ready for xplant this weekend. Went to war with the thrips. Did I mention I hate thrips? Thank you whoever came up with Spinosad!!! They've had no fert and will luv the xplant medium. A couple showed this morning that they are hungry. mmmkk 002.JPG

xplanted and just sprayed Spinosad for the thrip knockout punch before flower. Probably one more week before 12/12. Topping was interesting (i rarely top, usually slight training), all that were topped are doing well, one that was fimmed has one new top and one damaged top. Probably will retop or train that plant. Another gave four tops. I can see the pheno varieties exposing on the SLH, the tangerine has a lanky sativa appearance and really like being topped.month 006.JPG month 001.JPG

Week 5 veg, switched from 2x400mh to 2x600 hps yesterday. Get the plants used to the new lights for a day or 2 and 12/12 em. They are currently separate at room ends because center setup developed a cord set problem and will have to be replaced. If they bush out enough will run 3x600 after stretch and after repairing middle setup. They look better than pictured under hps lighting - makes leaves appear yellowish.

They like the 2x600 and the switch to 12/12 yesterday. So here they are day 1 of flowering. Group shot and picture of tangerine dream which seems to be doing good, it will be tall and showing sativa traits. The superlemon hazes have several phenos. Should see some accelerated growth now. Nothing super explosive as this is organic, all in the soil, no ferts added or teas as yet. Soon though.latesept 002.JPG latesept 006.JPG

Just woke up the girls day 14 of 12/12. First pic is the super tall tangerine dream, thankfully the only one in the grow, expect it to be at the ceiling soon. Had the lights too close at early flower and bleached some tops.wej2 001.JPG wej2 002.JPG wej2 003.JPG wej2 004.JPG

Morning of day 22, quick pics before all lights on. Gave them the full biobizz regime per their sched at 33%. Should start budding up now. Mollasses for all today. Close up of bottom bud, just a tiny bit of frosting as temps are just now going to get low and bring out the trichomes. My favorite is at far back and can't be seen in the pic. Has the most light of crop and will be a low yielder.3week 001.JPG 3week 006.JPG

Not sealed. Originally intended to but found i didn't need to. Growing in an upstairs bedroom with double doors on one side and large windows opposite. Can open and close doors/windows to control, rarely have to close the house and run central air for short periods. Have a fan blowing above tops for each hood and a large fan sweeping the room. Might be why i have thrips every grow?

Yea using those big windows will definitely invite some in wanted critters.

But at least you got the temps under control. Just get some good bug killer.

Nice job none the less

Morning of day 28 and plants are adding bulk. Will have to add much support today to hold up some. Calmag def on 2 plants and will correct today. 4 plants got dolomite lime on initial mix, these 2 were not in that group. First pic is slh at far end of grow, 2nd is the tangerine with 4 tops and mostly between lights, and a group pic.4weee 001.JPG 4weee 002.JPG 4weee 003.JPG

Start of day 35 and can see before lights on that need some nitrogen for the longer flowering plants like the Tangerine. Really not impressed with bud size, though they are very firm. What is impressive is the odor. Smells like a plum orchard at night. 3 shorter flowering slh penos (9 weeks) the rest probably 10-11weeks. Tangerine unknown but is a sativa pheno, maybe 11-12weeks?wee5 002.JPG

Starting to put the girls into jars and just noticed for the first time that the tangerine dream (which had 4 tops) has 3 buds per node on one of the tops. did notice one top was much fatter than the others. Here is a pic of the bottom of that top and a close up bud. Must say as i sample when jarring up and the tangerine dream is dynamite! Can't wait to sample after cure.
