New room, some new plants, and some new techniques....

Fem OG Kush. Had some heat stress during the first month of veg. Bounced back like a rubber band though. I'll take clones this week then flower them out. Waiting on a dehumidifier and some supplies for the veg room so this is all i have at the moment. Hope you enjoy.

Ok now that I am awake I will provide more details for those interested.

OG Kush S1 beans. Don't know what cut, they were gifted to me. They were vegged under t5's for almost 2 months. Never topped or pruned. Currently they are in 1 gallon bags but will be transplanted to 3 gallon to flower. The t5s got a lil close and heat stressed them for a minute. Had some leave curl and dryness. Raised the light when I caught it and they came right around.

They are currently under 1000w MH. They are in the flower room as I am building a two tier veg space next door. I will start under t5s, veg under 400w MH, then switch to 1000w HPS for flower and finally finish out under 1000w MH. Perpetual setup that will yield every 35 days I am guessing.

Completely sealed, insulated, soundproofed room. Will be adding the co2 burner soon. The new 65 pint dehumidifier will sit on the rack pictured in the flower room above. The 2 1000w lights are in Super Sun 2 hoods on a Light Rail 5. The 400's are in SS2 hoods as well. Using SS10 switchable ballasts. They really don't hum that loud nor get that hot. The AC keeps everything at the temp I set.

All of the plants are pretty uniform. Out of 9 I have one mutant and one pheno that is slightly different. The mutant conforms to the rest of the plants but has asymmetrical nodes since a seedling. The different pheno has some thinner leaves and stinks the worst so far. Using nothing but tap water for this grow. The soil has all the goods in it already.

HEY THERE PHILLTHY NICE SET UP. I JUST GOT ONE QUESTION FOR IS YOUR SOIL STORE BOUGHT OR IS IT YOUR OWN MIX AND IF SO WOULD YOU CARE TO ELABORATE ON IT.

Phillthy · Apr 26, 2009

The main recipe came from blazeoneup. I added a pinch of worm casings and a pinch of kelp meal. This takes me through 30 days veg, through 60-70 days flower, to chop, with nothing but water from my tap. I don't even PH the water.

Blaze's thread is here https://www.icmag.com/ic/showthread.php?t=59380&highlight=blazeoneup+dirt

This is his recipe i use:

3/4 bail promix bx (3cf)
1 bag MG Garden Soil (1.8cf)
1 cup bone meal
1 cup blood meal
1/2 cup dolomite lime
3/4 cup kelp meal
3/4 cup worm casings
20% perlite

Thanks for checking in

AWSOME... HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN GROWING WITH THIS SOIL MIX BECAUSE IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR A GOOD MIX MYSELF. ANY INPUT ON HOW WELL IT WORKS FOR YOU WOUL BE APPRECIATED

Phillthy · Apr 27, 2009

This is my third round. I have made slight changes here and there but it never disappoints. If you use the recipe straight from blaze's thread you will be impressed. I have never had any deficiencies, no issues with anything really. The last 2 weeks I water with some molasses.

Don't use it on seedlings though. I start my seedlings in Fox Farm Light Warrior. Once they are good and rooted (2 weeks), I transplant into this mix. When I clone I also start in straight promix or FFLW for 7-10 days after they root in plugs. It is simple, straight forward, and no nonsense. I hope that helps!

weedster · Apr 27, 2009

very nice setup and plants ... keep them green :yes:

Phillthy · Apr 27, 2009

Thanks guys! I will be taking clones today and working on the seed/clone/veg/drying spot some more.... lol.

The flower room is almost 10' x 8' x 8' and the veg is 4' x 8' x 8'. There is a door between the two so I lose some wall/floor space but it was all I had to work with.

Appreciate it. I cloned them and they have really taken off the last few days. Once I have good rooted clones they will be switched to flower.

Stick around!
