1st Journal, Big Buddha Cheese

[edwardvanhalen]

this is my first grow journal and my 3rd grow ,
i will be growing big buddha cheese
i got the seed from worldwide mj seeds and its a femmed seed
i am currently using cfl lighting

3 26 watt 5000k cfl's , and i have one 85 watt 3500k cfl in the back for extra light
i have an air conditioner in my room so it keeps the grow closet cooler
the average temp in my closet is around 70 degrees

there are 2 fans i use for circulation, one on top of my closet and one blowing cold air in onto the lights
i just started to position my fan so it hits the lights because i found it really cools the grow closet

im not using anything for smell because i dont know much about carbon filters and scrubbers so my room smells most of the time especially during flowering

this plant is 7 days old and i plan on vegging her for about a month
my last grow was the blue cheese and it turned out beautiful but i want a bigger plant this time so im gonna veg for a little longer
my light cycle is 20/4

the nutrients that i use are flora nova grow, flora nova bloom and liquid koolbloom to make the buds fatter
here are some pics of everything, the last pic is the pic at day 7 and ill be postin everyday if the demand is high enough haha
if theres anything i left out let me know guys thanks, peace

o and im using miracle gro soil, i know ppl think it sucks but it doesnt i used it for 3 grows and all turned out good,
i would get ff ocean forrest but theres nowhere to get it around here and shipping over the net is expensive
i will also be transplanting her into a 8 litre pot when she is ready

[edwardvanhalen]

Bumps this is gonna be a nice grow and informative for cfl users

hey guys today is day 8 and my baby is sleeping right now
i leave my lights on all night then turn them off at 8 in the morning
i turn the lights back on at 12 , giving my baby a little 4 hour rest
so at 12 im gonna get a couple more pics up
im also gonna take some pics of all my cfl lights
nutrients
and everything else i use for growin
peace

hey guys this is my second update to my journal
my baby is 8 days old now
here are some pics of my equipment
my nutes as i said are, flora nova grow, bloom, and liquid koobloom
i got all my nutes from discount-hydro.com

i laid out all my lights
the top row is for flowering and bottom row is for veg
i think its very important to have more cfl's for flowering because flowering is the most imp part to me
so i have 3 42 watters up there for flowering 2400k

so the plant is lookin good and healthy , growin nice and fast
i notice a big spurt growth during her four hours of darkness, so i wouldnt really recommend havin the lights on 24 hours a day for veg if anyone does it
ok heres the pics

btw my 85 watt cfl is 5000k full spectrum and the others are 5600k , what the fuck does full spectrum mean haha

[edwardvanhalen]

whats up guys
this is day 9 of my big buddha cheese
she is growing fast and is very nice and green
i know i wont get much replies cuz its a small plant and everybody likes the big buds just like me haha so im gonna keep updating and eventually we will be seein some buds

i have a question, i topped my last plant one time and it had 6 main stems
so if i top this plant more than once how many main stems will that produce, or does it depend on the strain ?
thanks guys, here are some pics

[edwardvanhalen]

Ne comments guys. I'll be putting pics up everyday

[edwardvanhalen]

hey guys its like day 9 or 10 i think im gonna take a little break and wait till the plant gets bigger cuz the replys came flyin in when my blue cheese was buddin
so ill post some more pics in a couple weeks

[newgrowNY]

Looking good and healthy... EVH

Things can be quiet in journals when they are still lil ones... just update once a week ... not just for "us" but you will find it will help you if you use it as a grow log for yourself...

grow it and they will come
