2013 Northern California Bay Area Indoor/Outdoor Grow(s)

coming along nicely mikey...

Thanks man.

Spring is right around the corner

2 PK x NYCD seedlings up front:
(Purple Kush x N.Y. City Diesel)




Top of PK x NYCD:




Tap vs RO + Nutes Beefsteak Tomato Seedlings:
(Tomato seedling on the left has been given tap water. Period. The right one has been given the same 5.9 PH'd R.O water + House & Garden Soil A&B + Rooting Enhancer that my cannabis plants have been eating)




Raised Lights:

Healthy Mikey. I was just out visiting you guys , I love the area and want to move out soon.

Yeah definitely.
I've traveled many places before, but Cali will always be home. Thanks for stopping by

I transplanted all of the seedlings from 1/4gal containers into 1gal pots. It's been 24 hours now and they have grown immensely.


-Botanicare Coco Coir w/perlite
-1gal square black pots
-Coffee Filters at base of pot
-5.9 pH with full strength nutes


My intentions are to dominate smaller size pots early on before they're able to go crazy in some super soil outside in a couple months


35 Days Old (Popped Feb 5th)











I am going to build a large seedling/clone rack tomorrow. More updates then. RUM

Built this Greenhouse from scratch.
-Saw
-2x3's
-6" wood nails
-4mm wrap


5' long ~ 4' tall
2'.5" wide ~ 1' off the ground shelf


I plan on adding another shelf at some point 2' above the base one.







Brought out a few for some sunshine:












All is well

1 of the PK x NYCD pre flowered already so I FIM'd her and I'm hoping to take many clones before summer.

5wks old













All is well

Lookin good Mikey!

Today I built an extra tent to house the growing seedlings. When they all go outside for summer, this allows me to have a perpetual grow. COO


-2x3's
-Panda Film
-Saw
-Screw
-Staple Gun, staples


I did a few pull ups in there to test the strength of it. Good craftsmanship early on prevents headaches later.





















Things are on point for the outdoor season this year

legit as fuck!

No way was I gonna drop the ends on another tent.

This is Way stronger and cost me $18.

10'x10' Panda Film ~ $10
2x3s ~ $8

Done deal.

I found this thread searching for T5 grows... Once I found out what you were doing I completely forgot about the T5's... Now I see them. Still, gotta love those things... I wish the plants well Mike&Ike...

Question though ( Now that I'm subbed )
Why didn't you take clones from the past crop? Are you not worried about males? Why seeds?
Still, I send you Half of my Irish Luck. Use it well.


BTW!! MUCH LOVE TO THE YAY AREA!! Thizz In Peace Mac Mutha Fuckin Dre!!

Sup. glad you stopped by.

I didn't take clones in Nov cause I wasn't in outdoor mentality at that point yet. I knew I had time to run a flower, then still have plenty left to start phenotyping some seeds for Spr/Sum. Why seeds? This is my FIRST outdoor grow ever despite my years of indoor grow experience and I want the majority of my plants to be grown from seed, in the ground in Super Soil ONLY. I will also have some clones out there. Clones from friends, dispensaries, and my own seedlings that have already pre-flowered.
I could have done a couple plants here and there outside over the years... but when I finally got to do it... I knew that I wanted to do it on point. Knowing that a few hundred $ is going into soil alone doesn't bother me. This is the year that I have been waiting for. April is already around the corner. I will be taking clones from each of the seedlings next week that haven't pre-flowered yet, root them, mark them appropriately(PK x NYCD #4) etc... flip clones to 12/12 and take the males out back and beat their ass.

Done dollah LOL

What's your Max plant count down there? Did you ever think of taking a shit ton of clones and throwing them outside?
Basically a sog instead of multiple large plants? Are you going to scrog them outside? I only ask about the sog because, if it were me I'd be thinking of electricity on the veg room, when at any point in time they could go outside?

All valid and good questions.
I won't get deep, but I cannot hit triple digit #'s.
Yes I've thought about SOGing out the entire area, but this is my first year at this pad. There are no teenagers, or anyone even remotely under the age of 30 anywhere in my area. Old folk and smiles are what my neighbors consist of. People that are home a lot and keep a watchful eye on their place of residence. But still, I can never be too careful of rippers. If they're gonna steal my plants before I'm able to get there in 10secs flat... they're gonna have to bring chainsaws to take down my forest of lower numbered beasts instead of running through my property close-lining a SOG with their arms. They're staying inside for another 4 weeks until I know that when they go outside, they won't be triggered to flower and then have to spend weeks reverting back to veg. They're gonna go straight from 18/6 starting with lights on at 6AM to outside in 4wks when they will get 15/9 outside and rising

HAHA I like the imagination. Still, you're right. Anything could happen. Keep up with the T5's man and I'm watching closely

This is for all my weed nerds out there.


He held a grow class today at my local Dispensary. I was hoping to see a couple of you guys I sent invites out to... but it was your loss haha.


Learned a lot and Sub very gratuitously gifted me an 1/8 of his JTR(Jack the Ripper). Super citrusy smelling. Great smoke. Thanks Sub!


















Great day overall
