I have 3 auto's flowering in my tent as we speak. Two will be chopped by the weekend, the third has another 3-4 weeks on 20/4 light schedule, I want to veg these seedlings for at least 6 weeks. I plan on topping and keeping these plants very bushy. Okay blades, stay tuned
Here are my fem seeds germmin'. For those interested I use the paper towel method..I get two plates, rip off two paper towel sheets, and label with permanent maker so ink doesn't bleed into my little seeds. I spray over the seeds generously with tap water, I spray the seeds and bottom paper towel sheet, then I cover the seeds up with the other paper towel sheet and press gently..then spray some more. I put 1 tsp of Neptune's Harvest Organic Fish and Seaweed Blend Fertilizer 2-3-1 in my water (first time using the stuff) after reading the back of the bottle, said I could use it to germ. So I did, my seeds had all popped within 3 hours, never had this type of reaction before, haven't done ANYTHING different but adding this stuff, smelt like dead fish when I looked at the seeds, gross, but worth it Sorry for rambling, I've smoked. But to the important stuff, I am growing.... DNA Genetics LA Confidential Reserva Privada Purple Wreck Reserva Privada Kosher Kush Reserva Privada Kandy Kush Seeds were planted in labeled solo cups this afternoon...
We have lift off All the seeds have popped and sprouted, lets start this grow meow *First Picture is Kosher Kush in the front, Kandy Kush behind it *Second Picture is Purple Wreck up front LA in the back
When I get off work I'll take pics and update, they will be in solo cups probably another week or so, but they look good!
Update!! Sorry I haven't been awesome about updating. It's been a busy few weeks with harvesting three plants from my last grow and still taking care of one!! Well here are my plants in veg!! It's been 11 days since they were planted in 50% peat moss 50% fox farms ocean forrest. Doing well, I water every day or so, they dry up fast. On a 20 hour on 4 hour off light cycle with my Blue Mammoth Auto, which is on day 71 or so since seed. Any questions, just ask!! Later blades! Pic 1 - in the back left we have Purple Wreck (could be the urkel pheno, seems slow growing but I'm not sure, I see purple coming from under the leaves and tiny bit from the top), next to it is Kandy Kush. In the front left we have Kosher Kush and next to it with the two long ass leaves across from each other is the LA Confidential!!
It's Barneys Farm Blue Mammoth Autoflower CheesexSkunk cross, reeks of blueberries and lemon...check my sig below, it's the grow right below this one!
DAY 13 Just wanted to update with a few more pics. I won't transplant them for another week or so, Two or three of my plants will flower in 2 gallon smart pots, and one or two plants will flower in 5 gallon smart pots, need to see how much space I have before I can decide final pot size. Okay blades, any questions just ask Pic 1 & 2 First Row starting from the left - Kandy Kush - Purple Wreck Back Row starting from the left - LA Confidential - Kosher Kush
DAY 15 They've gotten bigger... I will be transplanting into 1 gallon pots soon for two weeks or so, then into 2 gallon pots for two weeks or so, and either finish them all in 3 gallon pots, or something...I honestly haven't even decided what I should do, or what I have the space to do (as far as pot size) Picture - Front Row first plant on left is LA Confidential next plant is Kandy Kush Back row first plant behind the "LA Con" on the left is Kosher Kush, next to it is purple wreck. Enjoy blades
Okay I decided to transplant...had some free time, and it takes me awhile, so yeah...it be done. So I have LA, Kosher, and Purple all in 2 gallon smart pots and Kandy in a 1 gallon smart pot. I will veg for a few weeks, top, & train then...all that fun stuff. Then decide what plants are being moved where when it comes time to flower. You can guess which ones are which now
Im subbed lol.....i want to use this grow to show everyone that you dont need some GIANT light to grow good bud Keep up the good work man
Haha, I love that ^^ This 250hps is rocking hard! And once I'm done with the Blue Mammoth I'm putting the metal halide bulb in to veg all the kush. Glad to have you with me man!!
