Chamez's '08 Grow

[Chamez]

What's up my fellow growers.

My previous grow cab was a little one under my bathroom sink, but due to a change in my situation (parents arent coming to visit until next August) I can finally expand and do a little more.

Right now I have 8 plants under about 212 watts of cfls in a 1'x2' space in my closet. This is just a little veg spot until I get an hps in early december.

The plants are"
4 Double Strawberry Diesel by Rez
1 Fruity Juicy by Sensi (clone)
1 Blueberry by Dutch Passion (Feminized)
1 Sweet Dreams by KC Brains I think
1 Kush Bagseed from the east coast of Florida

Heres a shot from outside the cab


Here are the 4 Double Strawberry Diesel Seedlings. They were planted last thursday (11/01)



This is the Sweet Dreams. She is a clone from a plant that I started last summer and gave to a friend. Stretchy little sum' bitch when you put to flower. This will probably be the last pic of her until harvest becasue she is going outside to flower in the next couple of days.






And here is my favorite, the Fruity Juice. I call it juicy fruit, because I knew her before sensi changed the name. This is also a clone from the friend who has the Sweet Dreams. I underwatered her a little last night, so it looks a little wilted, but should be normal by tomorrow.




Last, and what may be the best overall, is the kush from east florida. A friend who knows that I grow found this in a bag that he boguht as kush and said was real good herb. It is only 2 weeks from being germed and is a monster. The other weird thing is that the first 3 rows of leaves feel almost like velvet. Undergrowth is already starrting to develop




Feel free to post away "Mi thread es su thread"

Forgot to add this:

Soil is Pro-Mix with perlite added, BC series of nutes, hand-watering with distilled water. If I forgot anything else ask away.

Here is the Sweet Dreams plant. Monday is the day that she will be going outside. Hopefully this cold weather will make her show some purple.




Heres the Juicy. Hasn't responded as well to being tied down, but is showing some nice undergrowth. Hopefully I will be able to get some clones off her in about a week.




Here are a the two next to each other. Juicy is on the left

No major updates today. I got some new ferts at the indoor gardening expo yesterday that Im going to try. Mainly 1 foliar spray, and the Humbolt line of nutes. Next grow ill test the other free shit and compare. I have 3 full lines of different nutes now, so maybe il do all 3 at once on 3 different clones from the same plant and see what works best. I also got the powder chem nutes from Fox Farm (beastie bloom, cha ching, and 1 other) that are supposed to be added to flowering nutes. They are gonna be added to the sweet dreams during flowering outside for a little test run.

Camera battery is dead, pics tomorrow or wednesday

Indoor Gardening Expo

Heres the loot from the expo. Can someone say Christmas came a little early this year.

 

[Chamez]

Still no real changes in the plants. The strawberry diesel were put into bigger pots last night and the Sweet Dreams finally went outside yesterday afternoon. Should be about a 11-12 week flowering time, so hopefully she is done early to mid feb.

I decided to try out the organic line of nutes from Humbolt Nutrients that I got at the gardening expo. I'm also giving the foliar spray by Dutch master a try. It is a 2 part mix that looks almost neon green.

Update after a long ass time

Update after a long ass time

The grow is still going even though I havent posted in a while. The sweet dreams finally started showing flowers a few days ago. Only 80 more until shes done. The kush began autoflowering last week, and is about 7 days into flower now. The Juicy looks good and the 3 remaing double straw diesels look good. I gave the forth to a friend growing under a 1000w light.

Another Update

Another Update

Things in the garden have changed since the last update. The juicy fruit plant went outside with the sweet dreams to flower, 1 of the 3 strawberry diesels was switched into a homemade, 4 gallon bucket with spots for 4 plants. That diesel will be given to a friend who will put it into a General Hyrdo 4 gallon drip system. Also going outside with the sweet dreams and juice is a Durban Poisen x Skunk plant that has been in the drip system above, but still has no flowers and reeks to high hell.

The 2 remaining strw diesels and kush are doing great. The kush didnt stretch that much and is about a foot tall and showing nugs everywhere.

Nice I'm growing some kush bag seed too Mine looked a lot like yours: mainly indica, stout, and the leafs are incredibly soft!

Gotta love them indica's man, they're the best

Heres the loot from the expo. Can someone say Christmas came a little early this year.

DAMN!!!!!
never though of going to get freebiees from one of thoes...
what a haul!
get new pics up!

 

[Chamez]

Quick update before Im gone for a few days. The diesel was moved into the water farm, durban x skunk was put into a 3 gallon grow bag of Pro-Mix and perlite with some myco in there and the 3 plants in my closet were also transplanted. The 2 diesels will be tied own so they dont over grow the flowering kush. I think I saw a female pre-flower on the bigger of the 2 diesels and also the dp x skunk.

Hopefully some pics this afternoon, but im not promising anything.

Finally Pics

Finally Pics

A friend came over and took some pictures today. Finally had someone with a real canera and some skills snap a few shots

Heres the closet from the outside.
Double Straw Diesels on the outside and kush in the middle.
The Kush is at Day 22 of flower





Some close ups of the kush











This is the smaller of the 2 diesels. The camera battery died before we could get pics of it





A view other pics my friend took today. The first is the kush sitting in my room looking out the window and hte second is for size comparasion.

 

[Chamez]

Im back from being away for 5 days and seeing the plants for the first time was amazing. The 2 diesels indoor must have really needed to be repotted casue htey took off. One grew abouit 3-5 inches in the few days I was gone and hit the light. Only fried 1 fan leaf, so it wasnt bad. The other diesel looks amazing now, with very short compact nodes, and undergrowth starting to come out of everywhere. The kush that is flowering now reeks to hell and the small amount of nugs on there made my entire house smell like lemony skunk. The nugs on it are a light green, and covered in nugs.

Hey Chamez, I grew Juicy Fruit way back and I still remember the taste. You have some nice strains going, can't wait to them in flower. Take care man.

B/R

 

[Chamez]

The taste is why im growing it. I got some last year and wow, I still remember the taste. I also had some juicy x jack herer (we called it Jacky-J) that was amazing. It doesnt have the kick your ass high, but great daytime smoke and keeps you clear-headed.

Outdoor plant update

Outdoor plant update

I went and checked the outdoor plants today. The sweet dreams is really filling in with nice herb. It smells like the red flintstones vitamins. The nugs are all white and covered in crystals. The leaves are covered too. The Juicy outside is showing some preflowers, but still no nug formation yet. The biggest surprise/ update is that the durban poisen x skunk is a female. Good news since I took 3 clones and they all rooted. The juicy fruit clone also has roots. The other clone of Mazar I have looks decent, and I think she will live. Hopefully next time I go outside I can bring a camera.

Happy New Year

Hope eveyone had fun ending '07, and got a great start to 08.

Nothing has changed over the last few days, except for the size of the plants. One of my 2 strw diesels shoulded sex and is a female. Hopefully that means the other one is also since it still hasnt shown anything. The kush is really fattening up and is at day 33 of flowering. Hopefully a 56 day flowering time is all she will need. I wont get over 7 grams dry from that plant, but it make my entire bedroom smell like citrus/lemons.

Im going out to the outdoor spot today, so hopefully I can find a camera to bring.

Update with Indoor/Outdoor Pics, Lots of them

Update with Indoor/Outdoor Pics, Lots of them

Ill start with the outdoor plants and then get to the indoor.

First up the Sweet Dreams
Its smells from at least 10 feet away and is extremely fruity/flowery smelling.
Here are a few pics of the whole plant.







And here are a few nugshots









Here is the Juicy Fruit. It wants to grow straight up and didnt like being tied down. The clone I have from this plant took root and I think I am going to let it gow 4-5 nodes, top it, left it grow 4 more and then put it out to flower. Needs a lot of light and I dont think it would do to well with less than a 600w.

The whole plant





Some of the early buds. Starting to show some kief on the leaves and small nug formation. If this is anything like its mother it will have a fat top nug (20 oz bottle size) and a bunch of golf balls below it.




Last of the outdoor is the South African Durban Poisen x Skunk. Big bastard with some small nug formation. Only been outside on 12/12 for 10 days

Indoor

Indoor

Here is the Kush which is 33 days into flower with between 23 and 30 days left. Smells amazing and makes an entire room reek like kush citrus/lemon.














Here is Double Strawberry Diesel #1. Taller and more space between nodes than #2.










Here is the other DSD. Very nice structure and is a female. 12/12 started about 4 days ago, but day one wont officially start until stretch stops and nugs formation starts





This is the only training this plant has had.
