The "Nukem" Chronicles!

Bud Nukem · #1 (**permalink**) 03-04-2009, 05:33 PM

Well, I have waited months...I have slaved over hot spreadsheets and planning documents. I have lived in the Grow Forums for a while, and read exactly one shitload (I measured) of info about grows, grow rooms, equipment, procedures, etc., all over the Internet.

I received my Medical Permit, back in December 08, and am finally ready to make my own medicine!!

As of yesterday, we (me and my Bros) got the first room to a point at which I know I will have a bona-fide grow room ready, as soon as my new seedlings get their roots under them.

I am pleased to present:

The "Nukem" Chronicles!!

I will warn those who do not like reading...this may not be the thread for you. I will throw in lots of pictures, but I am very verbose, and that's not for everyone. I totally understand.

So...last night...I busted out my Seeds from BC Seeds:

And I selected the crop:

Then I got my RO Water, to Germinate the Selected Seeds:

1 - Seeds on the Towel.jpg

And then, I put those puppies on the towel, wet them gently, and put them in a nice, warm place...

This is the beginning of a grand adventure!!

Don Piano...DeWave...xxBurtonxx...NYgrow...all of you wonderful people...

I have great news...

It's Fucking ON!!!

Check these little <hopefully ladies> out! We will be putting all that have popped into the RO Water soaked tree bark rooting cubes today...hopefully all of the seeds will be snug in new homes (put in root down, transferred, of course with Tweezers, and excessive care to avoid touching the root

)by tonight! You can see another seed straight up from the obvious one that is starting to poke out, and there are some of the Kush splitting the case...

This actually the same seed...I wasn't sure which one was best, so screw it...I will put them both up.

My first one to pop will be Blueberry #1 etc., until I can determine their personalities. I need 7 strong plants to grow, and one that will be the mother plant, after I do the first sexing, after about a week or two under the real HPS lights and they have a chance to get a little height.

I will be labeling every one of these, as to when it popped, and that way I will be able to hopefully pick all of the fastest growing, and hardiest plants, for the Final Cut...every pun in the world you can possibly imagine was intended...

woot woot, getting closer! You plan on starting the actual grow this weekend, or you gonna wait until next week?

Also, this might have been in the grow room thread and I could have missed it, but will the mama plant be in soil or hydro?

All will be in Hydro. I really wish that I could grow these 7 plants up, and make a Mama for crop #2 from one of the best budding plants. But, I will need to have a mama plant ready about 4-5 weeks before I harvest, so that I can get clones in and rooted, before I drop the mature crop.

I am seriously thinking of re-vegging the very best plant for the next mama plant...the Perma-Mama, unless you folks know some good reasons not to do that.... But, to keep everything moving along, I will need to get a mama going before I really know how the first mama will bud.

I hope that makes sense, and answers the question!

It does.. but imo I wouldn't really re-vegg the plant. I think the ammount of buds is going to have more to do with light, nutrient, and co2 consumption than the actual plant. Obviously don't use a sick plant as a mom, but I would say any good looking plant will do just fine.

That's just my .02... maybe some more experienced growers would say otherwise though.

You make a very good point. The genetics will no doubt vary, plant to plant, but overall, if I get one with nice, short inter nodal length, fast grower, etc., it should be fine. The only thing I won't be able to tell, that may not vary enough to care about, is how tall, how resinous, etc.

But hey...a person has to take some chances...hehehe.
