Brand New Life - Brand New Person - Brand New Operation

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 11, 2009

So, my last login was roughly a year and a month ago and i was working on a grow operation in my dorm room at that time.

I soon left college and the grow operation halted as I had nowhere to try and grow any more plants.

I am now a home owner and I am working on something on a little bigger scale now that I have a place where I feel comfortable to do it in.

It started just about a week ago. Potted plants have been going strong for 7 days. cups have been going strong for 4 days.

Its still early, but I am already anxious to see what ends up.

There is nothing special about the seeds. Just some bagseeds i came across in a few bags of regular bud i purchased. I prefer dank bud, but don't care what it is as long as it gets me high.

So the pictures start today. Monday, May 11 2009.

60+ PLANTS.

All started in Miracle Gro Moisture Control Soil. (I know people discourage, but i have seen good things)

All CFL Lights. Most 6500K. Some 3400K. One regular light in front.

Regular Morning Watering Schedule.

ADDED 1 Birth Control Pill Per 1 Gallon. Sunday May 10th and Monday May 11th. (To induce Female Plants because of Female Hormones)
^^They Are Fuckin Strivin' Off This

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 12, 2009

the grow is still going strong and they are looking real good. LST has started on a few of them. Will start LST'n the rest of them tomorrow after a transplant from cups to pots.

Picture update coming tomorrow.

did you make reflectors out of your beer cans!? haha and ya gotta get some cfl's atleast. too many plants not enough lights. but congratulations on gettin a home!

The regular incandescent bulb is doing nothing more than making heat. Get rid of it. Also, you only want one plant per container

Yep. I do realize that. The incandescent is actually meant to make heat in there. Its needed cause of the lack of money right now.

I also realize that only one plant per pot is recommended. I just threw a few more in a couple of the pots. Figured "what the hell" since its just regular bud and I had a few extra germinated seeds.

beer can reflectors FTW. Low budget setup right now. But everything A OK!!

im going to do a mini update in a few.
Just basically finished starting LST on all of them but a few.
The growth is amazing me. The Birth Control pill (1 pill/1 gal. of water) is still being used and they really are thriving. I am hoping the female hormone is going to work. I read a lot of different things regarding nutes, chemicals and other things. the birth control idea has been brought up quite a few times in a few of the articles i read. So i decided to use it since my girlfriend doesn't use it and I have 2 full months worth.

Ouch. Maybe a little too early to have started LST. I usually wait until the plant has a couple nodes. But at least they survived it. You will need to figure out lighting for that number of plants soon. They look great now but will certainly need a boost in a few weeks.

tom__420 · May 14, 2009

You probably shouldn't have LST'd the plants this young man... With the amount of lighting you have they were getting very stretchy and would have fallen over like that anyway. I would try getting more lighting as soon as possible. It is better to start a grow of this size with major things (lighting and ventilation) already worked out. It makes it a lot easier dude trust me

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 14, 2009

I understand. Lighting is an issue. money is the biggest issue though.

I forgot to mention that this grow op will be outdoor after another month.

They will strive on sunlight then.

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 14, 2009

Lighting will be going 24/0 to 14/10 about when I move them all outdoors.

what do you guys think of that idea?

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 15, 2009

A mini-update of the biggest girls.

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 20, 2009

LST'n this one good. this is the biggest one.

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 20, 2009

theres just a small mini update.

progress is going smoother with a few more cfl's.

what do you fellas think?

tom__420 · May 20, 2009

They look awfully stretchy

growinthatsweetcheeba · May 26, 2009

A mini update will be coming up in a few.

Tell me how you think they look now.

Yes, they were a little stretched at first. But I think i have been training them well now. They are looking good.
