It's time to start our 2nd grow! First grow was good without much trouble, especially with all you guys help. Starting out this round with a dozen StarDawg's, 25 White Widow, 25 Sour Diesel, 25 Green Crack, 9 Maui. Seedlings have popped, BM7 is warming up in the shop, transplant pots being sanitized. We use well water from 220 ft below, and it has a natural 7.3 ph, so we dont have to adjust down much. We have 2, 55 gallon tanks that we use. One for nutes, and one for ph'd plain well water. Here we go!

Transplanted the StarDawgs to their final destination. From seed planted 01/27. The other 84 seedlings are doing well in the humidity tent at 85 degrees/60% humidity. Floor temp remained 73 degrees throughout the winter so far, and I don't foresee it changing as the weather starts warming up soon. Well water is 345ppm, added 1/2 strength Botanicare to the StarDawgs to 445ppm. 450 PAR reading on the lights.

Starting to get things rolling with some seedlings we transplanted. We had 100% germination and seedling survival. Gonna let these babies grow a little before we rearrange the floor plan.They are doing fine for now. I have to spray the floor down a couple of times a day to keep the RH up as the cold winter air intake is dry. They'll make their own humidity soon enough. Amazingly the floor temp through winter has remained at 73-78 degrees. The 11 autos are starting to flower and we will have this as processor product, not retail bud.

OH!.. shit, I didn't have my glasses on when I read that. No, we do not. I had the well water tested at an OSU extension office, and it tested out good. A little hard, but has good natural minerals in it.

Little update... Things are going good! It's in the 20's ambient temp, but the room is good at 79-81 degrees/ 55-60% RH.. struggling a little to hold that up there with the dry air intake. I wet the floor down a couple of times a day to keep it as high as possible right now. Had a pump go out...not fun. Replaced it. Floor temps are in the low 80's. These babies just got their first round of nutes a couple of days ago. 550 ppm, and lightly misted with CalMag during lights off.

Well, It's been a little more than a week since the last update.. not much going on other than watering as needed. There's enough plant material now that they are growing that I don't have to spray the floor down twice or 3 times a day to keep the humidity up. 62% this morning. Wont be long before I'll need to power up the de-huey. The StarDawg auto's are coming along pretty good and putting on good flowers. Happy Wednesday!
