After introducing myself it's time to start a grow diary again after a lot of years. This year will be another 6 plants outdoor grow.
Last few years I have been growing strictly outdoors and from seed. I used to have a good selection of mothers and a very nice male which was used to preserve some of the genetics before moving countries. After joining the forum again I decided on a led with dimmable function to be able to build a new collection. We have recently improved our small solar system but we only have limited power, especially in winter.
Led technology has come a long way and I really look forward to seeing what it is capable of these days.
This year the weather prevented me from getting an early start but so far we have been getting less extreme summer temperatures than last few years allowing the plants to thrive. I would have liked them to be bigger by now so I am trying to make up for lost time earlier.
The 6 plants of this year are coming from 2 different feminized mixed seed packs, trying to get as much diversity for a small budget. My own seeds are getting too old and I am trying to keep as much of them until I can propagate and keep what might still sprout.
2 plants are from last year's sweet seeds feminized mixed pack. Last year I grew 6 of them and was pleasantly surprised. The 4 other plants are from a grow barato feminized mixed pack.
These are some pictures from Monday when I made the introduction post.
Next photos are from today, it's very windy again making it difficult to get a good image. It's also one of the reasons why I decided to train them close to the ground for now. For tracking purposes I decided to name them respectively SSM 1 and 2 for the sweet seeds mix and GBM 1 to 4 for the plants from the grow barato mix.
SSM 1
SSM 2
GBM 1
GBM 2
GBM 3
GBM 4
