Ok, well I it's my fourth grow and thought I would do a journal.


I just got some seeds two weeks ago.


1x GHS = Big bang
1x Nirvana = White Widow
1x Royal dutch genetics = Train-wreck
1x Seedism = Hippie Killer ( Free Bee )


I ordered from Attitude seed bank and they were here in 4 day (UK) well wrapped up only thing about it was I had to go to the post office to sign for them as I wasn't in that day.


The seeds popped after 4 days in a piece of Wet Paper towel each in a dark cupboard, then I planted into Peat pelts for 7days once they were looking really healthy I have now planted in 2 Litre pots (it doesn't say on them but I recon that they are 2 Litre) they are under 3700 lumens of light (CFLs) in my cupboard in a propagator.

They are in my cupboard just now because I have three plants flowering in my tent.

When I replant and put in my grow tent I will be using the following :


1x 400 Hps Dual spectrum bulb


6000 lumens of Cfl


10 litre pots


Verve compost and perlite (B&q Stuff)


BioGrow, BioBloom and Top max


The tent is in my loft I am gonna need to buy a heater soon cause the temps are getting low now, thinking of getting a bar heater tomorrow.


if I have left anything out or got anything wrong please feel free to correct me or ask questions.


I will try and update this Weekly.


If you read all that and got this far, thanks 


Peace out troops ✌️

Here are my babies ......

When they broke seed the Train Wreck couldn't shake the seed so I tried to remove it without soaking it first and yes you guessed it disaster ripped one and a half baby leaves off (Could of choked myself) but she's a hardy wee soul and is pulling through fine ��

Notice the Train Wreck is way behind the others in growth she's the first one in the pictures......

My last grow I grew 4 industrial plants, but they never turned out great as I stressed the plants a few times various things went wrong, light timers breaking twice, light burn and they never got big buds or very potent (I was a bit of a smart ass as my first grow went so well)


While I had those flowering I got seeds From Rhino seeds for a grow after the industrial plants but I thought I was going to be away with a new job that never happened, so I just put them in the tent with the Industrial grow and they should be ready soon, they are :


Super Cheese : Feminized seeds


Chronic : Feminized Seeds


Power Africa : Seedsman (free Bee)


Will post pics of these for your info and for something else to look at just now ��

Really happy with the Super Cheese and Power Africa considering the small pots they are in, but the Chronic is a horrible phenotype with far to much leaves to bud ratio.
would not recommend.


P.s: I Wish I had took some cuttings of the Super Cheese it stinks and it's a cracking Phenotype. (Maybe try and reveg)

Left to right : Super Cheese ..... Power Africa ..... Chronic

cheers .....

My Babies have been under 24hr light constant since they sprouted, bought a cheap timer today so I can change them to 18/6 tonight, hopefully will slow down grow as I am waiting on my flowering room to be ready and save on electricity.

Since they sprouted just been using tap water left for 24hrs to let the Chlorine evaporate and ph test at 6.0, be a bout another week before I use nutes.

Pictures : The light bulbs I am using (4 of) just until my Hps light is freed up.

A bit about the strains I am growing,

Strain: Big Bang


Bred from crossing skunk with Northern Light and El Nino, Big Bang is aptly named on two levels: this cannabis bursts into growth as well as its almost narcotic effect, which is steady and long-lasting. This incredibly strong effect makes this a very important strain of medical marijuana for a variety of medical conditions . Rated by many as an easy to grow cannabis suitable for beginners, this strain not only gives high yields but is also mold resistant. Downsides are that it needs lots of feeding and is very stinky — good air filtration will deal with the aroma though.


In terms of flavor, Big Bang has been described as sweet, apple-like, tasting of rose and violet candies, and multi-faceted, all of which probably translate as ‘difficult to describe.’


At a Glance
Type: Mostly Indica
THC: 15.5%
Grows: Best for hydroponics but can be grown in soil
Height: Tall —can reach over 7ft if roots aren’t contained so best in small containers when it will reach 2-3 feet
Yield: Indoor 700-800 grams/m2. Outdoor 1000 grams per plant
Flowering period: 9 weeks



Strain: Nirvana seeds - White Widow

In the mid-1990s, a legend was born. Almost overnight, White Widow appeared on the menu of just about every coffeeshop in the Netherlands. This masterpiece went on to become a yardstick against which all other “White” strains are held up. Our White Widow grows tall, with delicate arms. Her buds are moderately compact in order to contain the copious amounts of resin she produces. Tending toward the Sativa side, White Widow produces a buzz that is powerful yet energizing and very social.


Yield: 300 - 400 grams/m² (SoG)
Effect: High and Stoney
Grow height: Medium
Flowering Indoor: 9 / 11 weeks
Brazilian sativa x Indian Indica



Strain: Trainwreck - Royal dutch genetics



Trainwreck was brought to us from Hood River, Oregon and is an example of ‘Oldschool’ genetics created in America and passed down over the years. A gift we received, we sampled the goods and were very satisfied with the results. we were happy to add this gem to our library. With a lemon/pine aroma and fresh taste, this Indica/Sativa cross has an effect often said to be the reason for the name... like being in a trainwreck! This strain has beautiful big green leaves and big compact buds that are hard as rocks hanging on healthy but thin stalks and branches. Trainwreck also gets it’s name from it’s growth.


Genetics: Columbian x Mexican x Afghan
Flowering Time: Long
Height: Tall
THC Level: High




Strain: Hippie Killer



Breeder: Seedism Seeds
Location: indoor, outdoor
Type: indica/sativa
Flowering: ~56 days
Only female seeds. Seedism Seeds - Hippie Killer
Hippie-Killer is Seedism's first release created by our friends in Cali.


They grow quite similar to the BLZBud, very bushy plants that just seems to love her vegetative cycle but show very little stretch during this period, especially when topped after about four-five weeks.


Yields can be very high, with buds growing over more than 30% of the branches.


These buds will start densifying when about 6-7 weeks into the flowering cycle and will need branch support before that.


The Hippiekiller is Very potent, and very quick.


You wont have to wait too long for that first wave of effects to arrive, starting instantly with a gentle slap in the face when first the THC reaches its target.


Soon your eyelids get heavier and a feeling of overwhelming calmness comforts you like a very large but very soft pillow.


This ofcourse is the moment when the ever so important CBD starts making its first move, relaxing your body with no chance for any physical resistance.


Genetics: Love Potion X Brazilian Indica
Flowering time: 8 weeks
Average height: 3-4 feet
Smell and taste: tropical fruit
Average yield: 300-600 grams
Effect: psychoactive, medium relaxing

Nice grow.

My next grow, I def want to start from seed and would like to keep them at 24hr light for the first few days. Do you think it made a big difference vs 18/6 right off the bat?

I think I would do it again straight from seed, can't really say if it did or didn't would like to maybe do a experiment with that have some in 18/6 and some 24hrs...

changed to 18/6 tonight, just hope it doesn't stress them ..... We shall soon see :)

Yea I like going from seed, but once I get a few good strains it will be clones on after save time ...

Hey, so a wee update .......

Changed my lights from 24hrs on to 18/6 last night and was small bit worried about stress.....

No chance they loved it, even stretched some.....

My train wrecks still playing catch up, but I am just happy she survived the cruelty I dished out on her ......

Peace out ......

Hey Guys ......

I was up watering my current crop tonight and I had to take pics of this Super Cheese ......
For the size of the pot, she's done really well covered in tight hard frosty nugs and the smell is outstanding.....

I love her, in a plant loving way of course :hump:

This is is why I am going too re-veg her as I never took clones, so I can see her full potential with my growing equipment and skills...

peace :)
