Hey all here is what i have going on at the moment hope you enjoy the pics. I welcome all questions and suggestions. I am currently growing indoors and outdoors. I am growing AK47 and Trainwreck clones. I also have BlueCheese, Blackberry Kush, Skunk #1, and Skunk#2 in the clone boxes. Here is my indoor setup. Veg room and flower room are roughly 4'x4' and 8' tall. Veg room is equipped with a 400 watt Metal Halide and a oscillating fan. Pics are from 5/24/2012. Top right is Trainwreck the rest are AK47's Clone Domes Blue Cheese, Blackberry Kush, and the skunks on the left yet to root and Trainwrecks on the right that are already rooted. Now onto the flower room! It is equipped with a 150 watt HPS and a 300 watt equivalent CFL. (pic shows the MH in the flower room but my temps were too high so i switched it out for the CFL. I have 2 400 watt MH's but it doesn't do me any good until i get a better exhaust). I also have a small oscillating fan, a 50 CFM exhaust fan, and a air purifier with ionizer. AK47 about 5 weeks into flower (forgot to write it down when i put it in flower) Chemicals and what not My compost tea
Outdoors I have a 12'x12' dog kennel. I have tarps on all sides for security reasons. I don't want anybody to see them. These pics are from 5/25/12 after i put the 2 AK47's outside. I also took one of the bigger ones from inside and put it in there so i can spray it good for spider mites.
Yesterday (6/5/12) I came pretty close to stepping on one of the babys outside so i put some fences around them.
Today i took the AK47 that was in the pot outside and transplanted it into a 5 gallon bucket. I'm going to let it soak up the sun a week or two then flower it.
Its the native soil but i dug it about 2 feet and broke it all up. I also mixed in some grass clippings and leaves in the hole to break down and hopefully make the dirt a little richer. My goal is to start a compost pile this year. I have been getting compost tea from my cousin.
Looking awesome! Damn look at that AK47 and those roots. Two weeks outside and its gonna explode. I heard trainwreck is awesome for OD. I was gonna do it this year but got distracted by all the other crazy strains out there. Im watchin this one. Were close to the same with the little ones right now. That big Ak47 gon get huge.
This is my first time growing the AK47 outside and first time ever growing Trainwreck. I can already tell the AK47's i put in the ground are going to do well but i planted them on the 18th. Hopefully the Trainwrecks will start catching up soon since i didn't get them out there until the 2nd. The one in the bucket is going to go into the flower room so I'm gonna top it a couple times and get a nice canopy. I just put it outside so it could get some natural light for a while and i can concentrate on my clones and smaller ones inside. I am also trying to keep spider mites dead and its easier to spray the big one outside.
Here is a few updated shots of the outside plants. The AK47's are growing nicely they are as tall as the fence around them now. AK's Trainwreck's
The Veg room. I think this is skunk #2. The guy i got the clones from mixed them up so i just took a cutting from each plant. He had 2 skunk #2 plants and this one looks a lot like one of the other clones. trainwreck AK's
I got a couple of new tools to help with the grow. First pic is my awesome new spray bottle for spraying the undersides of the leaf with mighty wash. The mites are back and this time I'm giving them hell. 2nd pic is of my eye clops. It magnifies those glands like a champ and puts them on my television screen. Will have some updated pics of the ladies later today.
Shit you got mites? Yeah kill those things hard! They are the worst. Totally fucked my whole last indoor round of mine =(. That eyeclops looks awesome haha. Cant wait to see the pics. Good luck battlin those mites. Im rootin for ya. The OD lookin good as well.
The eye clops is pretty cool. My cousin gave it to me along with the spray bottle. He said they used to sell them at Toys R Us until they found out people were buying them to magnify their weed.They pulled them from the shelves and now people sell them online for more money. It does look like something a kid would play with. If i take a picture I'll need someone to take the picture of the t.v. while i hold the scope that is the only downside to it. Yeah the mites are a bitch. I thought I had them beat but I was wrong. I picked up another bottle of mighty wash and sprayed them with a vengeance. I highly recommend that spray bottle for any one spraying for mites. It gets under the leaves perfectly.
Here are some pics from today. I sprayed all of them with Mighty Wash before I took the pics so some look a little droopy. Here are the 3 AK47's and the 2 Trainwrecks Outdoors. AK47 AK47 AK47 Trainwreck Trainwreck
Here are the ladies in flower.Both are AK47. Took it out of the room to spray it good. Shes top heavy. Here is the smaller one that is flowering.
Here are some pics of the ladies in veg room. AK47 AK47 Trainwreck Skunk #2 Blue Cheese and Skunk #2 in the back and Blackberry kush and Skunk #1 in the front. Not sure which one is skunk#1 and which one is blackberry. I know the skunk #2's because there is 2 of them. These little guys were hit with mites bad too but i'm pretty sure they will bounce back now.
