Naw man I wanted to get out of the auto's. Oh well as long as they all survive till they get bigger I can live with that. I'm sure once they get a lil bigger they will be looking a lot better. Next time I buy soil Im going with the Ocean Forest. I'm so dissapointed that I messed up my auto's (well Mary at least).

Yea im sure they will get better once a lot of the nutrients are not so strong to them. Hope they are do good. Best of luck bro!

Thanks man. Ya the new growth is starting to yellow at the leaf tips. Nothing horrible or anything. I'm sure once they have used up all the nutes they will be fine. Nothing I can't fix later on in this process. I want this to be good. I'm not flowering until I have everything 100 percent right. I want to clone this strain and dial it in so I can really understand this WONDERFUL plant.

I know this is way off topic.... but I just recently got my hands on a 6 year old bonsai tree. Pretty cool can't wait to clone it and start a bonsai garden aswell. Should be pretty good side money if I can get some good looking trees off of it. Well "legal" money that is lol I don't sell just do it to support my smoking.

Little Update for today. All 4 that I planted have come up. The two older ones are still yellowing. I'm a little worried about it but I don't really know what to do other than just let it run its course. They are to small to be flush and transplanting would be pointless cause it would just go into the same stuff just different pot lol. I'll take pics probably later on in the week. Not much has changed they are getting their third set of leafs now. Things should start picking up in the growth cycle (specially after they use up all the stuff in the soil).

Alright here are some long awaited pics. The soil is still a little bit too hot or them but I think they are bouncing back. The new leaves aren't yellowing as fast and the Darker green is coming back a little bit. Also my other two seedlings have broken soil about 4-5 days ago. All are still really small. Got the two biggest seedlings about 19" away from the light. I kinda ran out of books to stack up lol. I guess I'll have to start using the Thrifty Nickel papers. Anyways I wanted to ask if it is too early to flush both of the bigger seedlings. I want this nute burn to stop so I can get on with these girls.

Mate what is that soil it looks mega bad tbh. I dunno what is up but unless you have been nuting those plants then they shouldnt be like that. Must be the soil or water.

I splashed out on some plagron batmix and i can tell you now this shit is the bomb. I transplanted into it a week after the seedlings had broken ground in some potting soil. The growth took off.

Honestly splash out on the soil makes it worth it.

In your situation i would get those plants out of that soil and into some good quality shit asap. Just wash the soil off the roots and transplant.

Aight I guess I'll have to spring for some FF Ocean Forest. Only 25.00 a bag, I'll have to wait till I get my taxes though cause for now I'm flat broke. But wait doesn't the Ocean Forest already have nutes in the soil? I mean I would be just going back to the same thing again. Its not the water, I've been using the same water for every grow. I think it is just the cow manure. It was a fresh bag of it too. If by the time I get money they are good I'm honestly going to leave those. In the future however I will be going with the Ocean Forest. AHHHH I really just wish I had some money I would just go tommorow to the hydro store and just pick it up. Sorry man I'm high I know I'm rambaling but I think I just might go pick it up tommorow and just replace the money with my tax money. Hope nothing goes wrong from now till then lol.

Alright so last night I got my taxes and went on a little shopping spree. I picked up some soil, good soil ph meter, and some rooting hormones from the hydro store. Also I purchased 5 fem Arjans Haze #1, found a free pack of power skunk from g13 labs, and then for spending all that money lol I get 5 free reg thai x super skunk, and 1 gigabud fem seed. I'm super stoked about the haze.

So now onto the new soil. I ended up going with Roots Organics soil mix for two reasons: One has the same stuff as FFOF and costs a lil less, and two its WAY more airy than the FF, guy at the hydro store said he has to add something to increase drainage a little more with it. Figured if I'm spending close to 30 dollars on one bag of soil I would rether it be what I want already. I got the two small seedlings out of the old potting soil and CAREFULLY placed them in peat moss plugs and then put the plug into the new Roots Organics. I'm going to start using light doses of the rooting stimulator once they are ready to be watered again. I'll be updating this journal alot more as soon as things get going right.

update for today, I noticed some a little growth spurt on the seedlings that I have transplanted into the new soil. So far so good, I'm very happy with it. Ummm I'll take some pics probably after I give them some of the root stimulator next watering.

Update for today: It was time to give the little seedlings a watering. I mixed in the root stimulator in today. Also the two bigger GW's are coming out of the burn I might be able to save them after all (as long as they don't turn hermie during flowering). The two bigger ones are starting to get side shoots. I think I might try topping on of them when the side shoots starting showing a little more. Well thats all for today.

Well guys have horrible news. Me and my fiance are now homeless. I had to chop everything. Its a good thing I went ahead and chopped Mary on sunday night. I would not have had time to trim her yesterday when all this crazy shit happened. Only thing now is I'm riding around with over 2 zips (wet but to cops it don't matter wheter its wet or dry its still 2 zips) in the back of my suv. When you open the door the wave of smell hits you like a right hook from Ali. Do I just throw it in glass jars so I can hide it easier or what????? I don't want my shit to get all moldy now this is the only smoke I have and can afford to buy till I get a place again. I'm staying with fam for the week so we can find a place to live. Probably not going to grow for ALONG time. ummmmmmmmm sorry guys this really sucks I almost cried yesterday when I cut down Jane. she wasn't even ready and I didn't get to what she was going to do. anyways hope to see yall soon.

Thanks man I wish I could say I'm proud of that rep lol...... I hope to be starting back up sooner than I thought man. Got some Haze #1 seeds on the way. It will have to super stealth though (unlike last time lol)

Its all good and dry. I had to jar it before it was dry though. I just didn't put lids on the jars and only put enough bud to cover the bottom of the jar in each one. I got some newspaper and swapped that out for the seals on the jars. When I got into my new place I put the jars in the back of our HUGE WALK IN CLOSET that we have now lol and put a lil space heater in the front of it and turned it almost two half power and left them in there for about 14 hours at about 5 days drying. Once they got nice and crispy on the outside I sealed the lids. They have been sealed for about 4 days now. I burp the jars about once every 18-24 hours for about 10 minutes with a small fan blowing over the open jars. The smell is great when you just open the jars but slowly disapates after about 5 minutes. I'm sure this has to do with the amount of bud in the jars cause they are pretty big jars with a small amount in each one. Ummm other than that, I have a plan for a super stealth grow either one or two options. I stick with the autoflowerplants and use CFLS on 20/4 in the attic with a mother keeper tent from HTG, or I do regular strains and just do 12/12 from seed with the hps and make my own tent with the contractor bags? There isn't enough room for me to get a bigger tent in the attic, and its one of my mothers rental house's, and she has the key and specifally told me no growing. But she never goes in the attic she is almost 60 and can't get up there. I'll have to snap some pics of the attic and think up a better plan.

I was looking at the mother keeper tent and you could put maybe 2-3 Auto's in there in at full bloom. I run my auto's now straight 24 hours until last week then turn on to 12/12. Works well for me.

That tent is nice and would be way stealthier then they trying to fab something up from scratch, and probably end up with more trouble (mold, light leaks, bugs, etc). IMO I would get the tent.

Ok see thats the only thing if I do the auto's I didn't want to use the HPS. I wanted to use the HPS if I was doing 12/12 from seed with the reg strains. Do you think there is enough room in the tent for the 12/12 from seed with the non auto strains?

That's a tough one i am sure there would be enough room as long as you LST them. Or maybe build a small scrog.

Is that tent only 20inches tall? Cause now im thinking with pot and lights you wont have enough room?

ya see thats what I was thinking. I thought it was atleast 30" but then I got to thinking I mean even with my air cooled hood it has to be atleast 15-16" away and that leaves me what 5" deff not enough room. I think I might just take my chances with the contractor bags and just insulate every hole on the floor double up the walls for light leaks. And since its in the attic I'm thinking about running it during the day so I can't get light leaks. Ummm I still have to put together the setup and see how it runs for a couple days and then start the plants.
