Well I am at it again and this time I am growing some different bagseed.All bagseed I have aquired comes from grade A quality dankness.This time around I am working with a purple strain and a fruity strain (all strains named after appearance/taste/smell).
Ok so I started out with three Purple seeds and four Fruit seeds.Two of the Purps sprouted and all four of the Fruits sprouted.I started the seedlings off in 8oz styrofoam cups until ready to be transplanted to 1 gallon plastic pots for the vegging stage.
A week before switching to 12/12 I transplanted from the 1 gallon plastic pots to three gallon plastic pots and I took clones and pruned all plants.I stuck my clones in a homemade bubble cloner that measures about 10" x 6" x 4" and placed that in a closet under two 2' dual 20w fluoro fixtures (that's 80w total).
Due to over crowding and not being able to fit more then 4 three gallon plastic pots in my C-13 I had to get rid of one of the fruits to a close friend.Also Purple #1 stays vegging to get as many cuts as I can,then she will be discarded and one or two clones will be kept as a mom.All plants have their clones and when this harvest is done I will smoke and judge which are the best of them (ie;purple #1-#2 and Fruit # 1-#3) and keep only those.Then clones will be taken of those clones and the first batch of clones (c1) will be placed into either 2 liter or 3 liter plastic bottles and grown SOG style with 10-16 plants total.The clones of the clones (C2) will be kept as mom(s) and grown bonsai style.
My method of growing is as follows...
Growspace : Mills Pride C-13
Lighting : A/C 400w HPS
Exhuast : 4" 178cfm EcoPlus inline centrifugal (set up to cool the light and exhuast the cab).
Intake : four 2" O.D. PVC pipes with 90 degree bends for light traps.
Ambient Temps : 70-75F
Temps in Cab : 74-78F
Growing Medium : Jungle Growth potting mix with 2 tblsp. of Dolomitic lime added to help buffer pH.
Nutrient/Fertilizers used : Fox Farms Grow Big,Fox Farms Tiger Bloom,Fox Farms Open Seasame,Fox Farms Beastie Bloomz,Fox Farms Cha-Ching.
pH of plain water is set to : 6.5-7.0
pH of nute solution : 6.5-7.0
Feedings : every other watering at Fox Farms recommended doses as per their 12 week soil feeding schedule.
Now for the pics......
