Hello world,

this is my first stealth apartment grow on the planet mars!!

I have been secretly documenting this grow for the last few weeks. Weve had problems with our transponders but now that they are working again so I can pick up right at the good part!!

In case Uve been living under a rock, or havent heard, I built a stealth grow cabinet a few grows ago. Once it was beamed up to me, I then made an email to a guy named "dr. chronic" and asked him to hook me up with a few seeds.

this is what he sent me:



Ive since then grown out the bubb and sweet purp, and have successfully made a cross of it.
I have also created a F2 version of the Bubb...or a "second generation backcross" if that makes any sense. :leaf:


Strains

1 - Nirvana
Bubblicious x Paradise Seeds Sweet Purple (female)

3 - Nirvana
Bubblicious (unknown sex)

Medium

For medium Im gonna be using a blend of Fox Farms Oceans Forest, Miracle Gro Potting Mix, and Scotts Perlite!

Lighting

By the way of lights I have 4 - 42w CFL's that I'll be using for Veg, and a 400w HPS that I'll be using for flowering!

Nutes

For Nutes Im sticking with a basic FloraNova Veg and Bloom feeding schedule, 1/4 strength the entire grow, up till a week before harvest.

Im transloading the pics to a secure server now that wont be intercepted by ur planets intellegence (or lack of)!!:finger::finger:

:peace:

Was when we began documenting. At this date the plants sex was still unknown. All of the plants were under 4 - 42w CFL's for 24hrs - earth time.

After a mild interruption we have come to the 8th calendar week for my lovely bubb x sweet purp!

We lost one of our bubb f2 plants, but she was replaced with a bagseed plant that Ive have for about 5 weeks now. Theyre gonna be some bushes when they're done flowering! As U can see Ive topped both of them at the 4th node, specifically so they could branch out and turn into bushes instead of giant trees.

^^as U can see I had a minor injury when she grew into my light!! :-O ^^

We had to replace two of our CFL's so for the past week or so they were growing under only 2 - 42w CFL's 24/0 in earth time.

They were a bit over watered in the last set, but once the soil dried out the plants bounced right back!

^^She's Starting to smell... its like a heavy earthy-fruity potpourri hahah!!!!

yes its clone time, I took 10 really nice clones from the Bubb x Sweet Purp that will hopefully root soon. I have a veg chamber setup in another area of the spaceship, when they root I will veg them for a while and continue the sea of green!!

I lit up the HPS today!

Temps rose into the mid 80's from low 60's during veg!

The Bubb x Sweet Purp has shown sex, Im waiting on the Bubb's to show me flowers now. I have a pretty strong feeling that the BagSeed Plant is leaning female as well.. More pix on the way. I just love how the HPS looks in the GrowCab! The clones are starting to turn a light green/yellow...Im pretty sure its due to the temps. theyre definitely growing tho!

Light up the HPS!!!

Thanks. I'm attempting to grow in an apartment too, although not quite as stealth as yours looks.

lol well to be honest if it wasnt for my walk-in closet I woulda been pretty much outta luck



The best piece of advice I can give U is to make sure U get some strains that have low odors, or some with sweet odors to hide the smell

it helps if ur apartment allows pets too, most definitely
