Perm's Perpetually Peeping Pistil & Plant Parade

Welcome to the show.
I have a few grows going. I'll try to keep each post on one grow area to try to keep it less confusing. This will be an ongoing picture journal of my grows.
I use a combination of lights, all HID. 600w-1000w DE in both MH/HPS with cool tubes and vented hoods. I have T5's, too.
I also use a combination of media. RDWC, Coco, & home made organic soil.
I like to experiment with new techniques, methods, setups, ideas, etc., so hopefully that will show here.

Fruity Jack (Respect #13 x Jack the Ripper #1, Philosopher Seeds)

200w of T5's
Water Temp: 65f
pH: 6
ppm: 200

Clones Day 6

1000w DE HPS vented hood
Temps: 75f day 70f night
Coco/Perlite 3:1
Dripper system on once at lights on and runs until 1/4" runoff in tray.

Bloom Tent Day 6

I don't really care for autos, but I got some in a black friday deal, I'll put it somewhere. It's in a homemade soil I put together seeing if I can go the whole way with just water. We'll see.

Here for the show! Nice setup!

Veg Tent
600w MH
Temp: 70f
RH: 50%

Mothers and clones
Some are soil, some are coco.

I gave that auto away to a friend, ain't nobody got time fo dat. I hate autos, lol.
As if I didn't have enough going on, I really have been itching to start a strain I've been sitting on. Sky Lotus from Bodhi.
I had 12 regular seeds, and popped them all in water last night. This morning they sank and I moved them to a wet paper towel in a ziplock.
I'm really excited about this run. I'm shooting for 4 keepers after picking out the males, and then going from there.


Baby pictures:


I've got them on a heat mat at 80f. Hoping for 100% germination.

The bag says SSH#1, it's an old bag.

Look real nice.

I got 100% germination on the Bodhi Sky Lotus! Sweet.
I put them in Rapid Rooters and set them back on the heat mat.

The canopy is nearly full. In a few days I will defoliate the bottom 3rd.

I got 12 out of 12 on the Bodhi Sky Lotus.

Looking good perm.

Thanks! I just saw in another post that you are about as far along as I am. Do you have a place you are posting your grow regularly that I can follow?

I'm just posting my updates in the Honest genetics thread in strain reviews. I've been doing 1-2 updates a week as I fumble my way through my first indoor grow.

Cool, I'll keep an eye on it. You're doing really good for your first indoor grow!

Thanks man, I'm doing my best. It's a different world going from outdoor to indoor...I've never worried about height, light penetration, airflow, temperature, humidity, etc...mostly just let the plant do its thing and keep up with watering and feeding. But I'm having fun with it, which was the point, in addition to learning some new stuff.

Man, wait until you get dialed in. You'll love it.
I have my bloom tent dialed in, and all I have to do is fill the tub every three days or so. I LST the canopy some and other than defoliating today, that's it. It's on cruise control for the next month or so. It just does it's thing. There really is no skill on my part, lol.

I have my RDWC tent nowhere near dialed in.
