    Using 1 400 watt Mh digital ballast in Veg Chamber. Using 2 400 watt HPS digital ballasts in Flow chamber.

    Soil is a mixture of...

    1/3 Peat Moss
    1/3 Vermicompost/Cow compost
    1/3 Lava rock

    Mixture of ammendments including....

    Blood meal
    Fish meal
    Lava sand
    Kelp meal
    Garden lime

    Vegging 1 month in 5 gallon buckets and then 1 month in a 10 gallon plastic bin. Then flowering for the last month and a half in the same 10 gallon plastic bin.

    Teas will be made up of a mixture of lava sand, ewc, molasses, and kelp meal

    Pics will be posted once progress is made.

    Soil is still cooking and will be germing some bagseed in some used ffof in a few days.

    Currently I have 2 ladies in Flow and about 8 in Veg.
     
  2. Started germination of 2 seeds yesterday. Will post pics once they pop soil.
     
  3. Well last night i had a power outage that i believe blew out my last mh bulb so im using a replacement 400 watt hps bulb for veg now kind of very disappointed atm.
     
  4. Relieved to find out that my mh bulbs did not burn out. They just needed to cool down for a while before they would turn back on.
     
  5. Also my soil should be nice and "cool" by next week decided to wait an extra week past the recommended 4. Going to transplant a glorious clone into a 10 gallon tote. The tote will have a bottom layer of lava rock under the soil.
     
  6. Also noticed one of my new seedlings broke soil last night, still waiting on the second. Im probably going to germ a couple more to go along side.
     
  7. Started germ on 4 bagseed today.
     
  8. Soil will be ready and hopefully useful in the next 3 days. I just hope I did it well.
     
  9. First pic of a new seedling that will be transplanting into a gallon bucket of ffof vegging for a month then transplanting into a 10 gallon tote of homemade soil to veg a second month and then finishing off flow for the last month or so in the same tote. Will be feeding teas when i feel like it. Second pic of the best clone so far been vegging for a little while.

  10. Thinking about turning my best clone into a mother and cutting some new clones from her to flow with.
     
  11. Got 5 new seedlings now
     
  12. Think i killed a seedling with water.
     
  13. Definitely killed a seedling with water. Ohhh welll....
     
  14. Got some yellowing/dieing leaves on Clone/Mother gonna make a tea for her and give the leftovers to the rest.
     
  15. Homemade soil is safe as far as i know. Threw a seed in some that popped about 5 days after and then stretched in the dark for a day or 2. Didn't notice anything detrimental to it's health. Gonna transplant a couple clones into some of it in a few days to give it a good test,
     
  16. Had another seedling die not really sure why think it was fried from the light but not positive. Still got 3 looking strong.

    Seedling and mother clone update. Eldest Seedlings are on their 3rd nodes looking good. Mother clone has recently un-tacoed her leaves. Moved the light up and her further away from it seems to be doing much better now. She was beginning to lose leaves believe to be a N def so made a nice tea for her and added a little blood meal top dress for extra N. She is looking glorious now. First pic seedlings. Second and third pics mother clone.

  19. Decided to add in a maxibloom only soil grow side by side organics just to fuck around a little.
     
  20. 6 new clone experiments just cut some juice containers in half and threw in 3 clones from 2 different phenos each of the same bagseed.
