Hello everyone. Just harvested my last grow so I thought I would make another journal for my new grow. I would like to do a perpetual grow this time around. Check out my last grow if you like and the porns on the last page to see what your in for!! A little info on my setup - Flower room - 400w hps, air cooled hood, 3x3 grow tent, carbon filter, 6in inline fan. Temps around 70-80. Soil everything! Veg room - 2 ft floro panel 2 bulb with reflector + additional 2ft floro 2 bulb no reflector, mini fan, 2x2 tent. Strains - Mother pre 98 bubba kush, very berry, kauai kemo and hopefully snowcap and trainwreck if they come out female. More to come!! In my flower room right now I have very berry and kauai kemo that were put in on 10/21. The snow cap was put in tonight 11/15. My next one will be put in on the 22nd I believe so I can start doing this perpetual thing. I need to do more research on it but I think I have it mostly figured out. If anyone has any insight for me on the perpetual aspect of it I would love to hear it. Probably going to be using 1-3 gallon pots for the grow. Need to find out what will work best in my 3x3 tent with switching them in and out constantly. Here are some pics of my setup as it is right now. Enjoy and dont forget to subscribe to my thread if you like it! Thanks guys!
Nov 19- Time for an update! The girls are doing good. The kauai kemo stretched a bit but Hopefully it will produce a good size cola. The very berry was drooping due to not watering in the last couple days. I am used to my 5 gal buckets so these little pots are going to be challenging to keep watered. I might just go to 3 gallon buckets on the next plants.... all the girls --- snow cap - sexing it right now, hopefully shes female. Very berry - looking great! Kauai Kemo - Deliciously skinny and tall!
Nice, thanks man! I will be adding a new strain tonight! I am going to pick up some more tonight. Hopefully headband, trainwreck and master kush. I love craigslist! I will update when the lights turn on!
Just picked up a master kush (Hindu Kush crossed with Skunk #1 ) clone and 2 headband (OG Kush, Master Kush, and Sour Diesel) clones. Going to throw the headband in there when the lights turn on. 18 bucks for the three. He has Sour kush, train wreck, bubba kush, hindu skunk, Head band, and master kush. I will be going back to him for the sour kush and hindu skunk for sure! I will have pics in about an hour.
Nov 22- Added the Headband today. She looks gorgeous in there with her sisters. I have a mother of her too now.
hey man great job ... i just read your last log and going to follow this one ... im about to set up my first gig in this next week .... i need to decide on my set up now
ok so iv been searching and learning all day now and iv come across this website tigerhydro.com and i can get ..Hydroponic Grow Tent 24x24x48"/ 2'x2'x4' and TigerHydro Digital 400 Watt HPS Hydroponic Indoor Garden System w/ 400W HPS Grow Light, 400W Digital Ballast, Wing Reflector and Timer all for under 200 bucks and i know that i will need another tent and just some plain ol florescent lights but this is all fine to get my mother started and my next tent will prob be a bit bigger for my flowering ladies ?.... also any advice on some nutes i have no idea were to even begin with those
Nov 25 - Today I checked on the flowering girls and I discovered the snowcap is male. I should have put another pre 98 in there with that one but I was almost positive it was going to be female. I have 1 more "mother" of snow cap and Im really hoping it turns out female. This kind of throws off my perpetual but thats what happens ... I need to be better at keeping it strict. I might get some pollen from it and make a very berry x snow cap and also a kauai kemo x snow cap. I was thinking kemo snow or kauai snowcap for the kk x sc and very snowy or berry snow (maybe berry christmas) for the vb x sc. Give me a suggestion, Im open to all names! +rep to the best suggestion. On a good note - The headband turned out to be female!!! What a good thanksgiving surprise!!! The clone dealer knows what hes doing! Only took 2 days to show sex!!! Thats a new record for me!!!! I was like those cant be hairs yet but damned if there weren't hairs at every inter node. (this is mostly all for my benefit keeping a journal but I hope u guys find it useful as well) I think I might ditch the perpetual and go for all different strains at different intervals but I really need to do my homework for this grow. If that happens Ill have to make a new journal lol
i like the berry Christmas, or berry island Christmas... did a little research on the kauai kemo and the kauai is just the area it originated from so i thought the Hawaiian islands... island... lmao
haha thanks for the suggestions but I think the only way the berry island christmas would work is if I crossed the kauai and snow cap with the very berry. That would take some time and figuring out since I only have females of the very berry and kauai. Im thinking berry christmas for very berry and snow cap.. now must find a good name that sticks for the kauai kemo and snow cap cross. Might call it donner party or something lol...
So the clone guy says he has blue dream, chem dawg, hindu skunk and is getting me a northern lights clone. Im very stoked I found this guy. Now just to decide on what to start next. Bah, I might just scrap the perpetual grow idea and focus on 1 of each... I dont know... Been kinda scatterbrained lately and having trouble deciding on what to do.
I cut the male down and also the "father" plant. After doing some research on crossbreeding I found it was far too complex for me to do with good results. Its not just simply putting male pollen on the female flowers but rather a very intense process of selective breeding and looking for the right phenotype's. Thanks for the name suggestions but I will just stick with strains that have been bread out and all the kinks worked out. =)
