Im looking to learn,share,laugh,smoke and grow with the MMJ movement here in CA... Sup Sup...
Will update
Nite People...

lookin nice, havent seen a scrog with cfls in a minute.

Lets see if I can break this down and get this journal up to date...

I started Mid-December with one teen Dj Short Grape Krush in soil...

After a couple trys I have leaned to cut and clone.. (will break my cloning down later)

I got 10 Grape clones into soil and going good...

Went and picked up a Super Silver Haze Bebe clone in a cube..

A few weeks later cloned 8 off her . My 1st Grape went into 12/12 a Little later another followed then SSH went...

One day I was smoking some good Sour D and Bam... Seed ... Oh my... Found a bag seed i had saved and gave it a go...

A little later 2 new plants into soil... Cloned 5 off the Sour D and then she went into 12/12 hoping for fem... Fingers crossed...

Didn't bother cloning bag seed.. Was hoping for male to make seeds... Into 12\12...

Super silver haze turns....

Female... Yahoo...

Few week later looking at Bag seed... Yep A boy... Yahoo X2

set up a Micro gro in separate room closet , Bag Boy-1-Grape Krush-1-Super Silver Haze

together in a large container and in to 12\12 they go.

Around mid FEB- 1 Have a veg room and a Flower room..

moved things around. Did this and that... learned alot about Lights,Nuits,air,water,pest,heat and more...

Decided after frying my 1st Grape Krush her whole life. to know what I'm doing so I learned about Soil mix and Nuits...

I think I've come up with a great mix... Fox farm is good stuff but cost is a joke...

By now I'm vegging around 18 and have 5 full flower...

Dj Short Grape Krush Plant #1 is just about ready to cut come March 1st.. so i throw her into darkness for 2 day after flushing with clean water last 2 watering's then letting her dry out last week before darkness... Shes cut, manicured and in a brown bag as we speak... a little over a week into dry and cure...

Grape Krush plant #2 which was in good soil well feed and kept short is a couple weeks from being ready

and One sour D and Super Silver Haze are about 7 weeks from ready..

One thing I haven't done up till now is keep dates and info... Didn't think i would be doing a journal and I've always grown with eyes touch and gut feeling..

Vegging:

I set up 2 Large 3x2x3 (guessing) containers and put 5 plants into each for a go at a SCROG grow...

I throw the last of my rooted clones into 6 in cups of soil (was 7 plants-2 taking to long so cut)

so today:

1 cut and drying.

4 Lady's in 5 gal buckets well into 12\12

15 vegging and waiting for 1st wave to finish up...

3 in 12\12 for seed

Going to clone 6 more for Bosai Mothers and grow outside over summer then keep inside for winter.

After 2nd wave everything will be taken down packed up and put away till I set up for a try at a HYDO grow.

Trying to learn everything i can... Passion bebe.. love it... lol...

Side Note:
I Have my MMJ card and hold 4 others for people im helping.. well under my allowed limet and besides,
Everything I post is fiction. not real,photoshoped pics and fake events... I would never grow the evil weed...

That said:
I was saying ?

Over the next few days I will break down as best i can each step and post pics.. see If there' some pointers anyone cares to share..

Speaking of which. Here's a few of the room back in mid JAN- FEB

Thankz for checking it out crazy. Puff puff....pass..

always glad to see any type of growing, cfls are a is really underrated but ive actually seen a couple people do it pretty well with y splitters and good training that will make each light as efficient as possible. i personally use a compact hortilux fluorescent, very efficient for growth if you grow around the bulb.
good luck with that super silver, its one of the best strains out there.

Here we have my SCROG Set up before and after.. as of Late FEB ...
There are:

3X Super Silver Haze
3X Grape Krush
4X Sour D

In the cups you see There Are :

3X Grape Krush
3X Super Silver Haze

nice, i like your party cup domes, its cool that your veg room can be a clone room as well.
and you should get some of those in cups or stack some cups so they're closer to the light. lookin healthy

Thanks bro... Yep the cups proved to be the best cloner Ive tried... Ive made a bubbler and a areo cloner. neither came close.
90% success and roots within 7 days... simple - simply rocks... This cloner\veg set up was a month or so ago. Its been moved for the
SCROG set up. Ill post my cloning post in a few days... I gots to get this thing up to date...

nice, any good growth in the past couple days? and id let those clones harden off soon and give them some air flow

Here is my 1 wave line up...

3X Dj Short Grape Kruch
1x Super Silver Haze
1X Sour D
1X Bag Seed ( Turned Male )

All in 5 Gal Buckets Named them

( GK 1-3 )
( SSH 1 )
( SD 1 )
( BS 1 )

My Mix of Soil. Nuits every other water,PH 6.5 No big bumps after CG 1

CG1 was in MG soil and MG Bloom max and burned heavy...

All Others are looking great...
Let me know what you think...

Heres the Line UP...

try to get some 2500k spectrum if you want more weight, 7500k is great for trich output though. and get some bat guano with high p and k miracle grow has too many excess metals and makes smoke harsh as well as taste. keep that in mind for future grows as well

also, try to get light to the lower nodes as well.

Right on... thnkz bro...
