I hope you guys are aware of my first grow, if you're not go check it out. It's me failing misserably. But it was a learning experience. This time around though, I am going to do everything right. I hope. The strain is going to be Northernberry F2. I wanted Northern Lights, because... it's nothern lights, everyone knows and likes it. I also wanted to get something sweet and tastefull such as blackberry or blueberry. Bubblegum was my first choice but it was sold out. My plan is as follows: put them into sunshine mix #4, which is a soiless mix that is world wide recomended. From there I place them in 1 gallon pots through there vegging life. Then when they are done vegging they go into my flowering closet with 3 gallon pots. They should be kept to a fairly minimal size. I am going to do a huge ass amount of LST and clipping to maxamize the bud spots. The lighting I will be using is four 48" 40 watt fluorescent lights and 400W HPS lights. all pre-purchased and setup so I shouldn't run into any problems there. I from there should clone in oasis cubes (anyone hear about these, I am trying to clone in them right now but failing) Any thoughts? I ordered the seeds today. I am sure I could say more, but I can't think of anything right now... let the fun begin!
Looks really good mate. Am hoping for better luck for you this time. That seed choice sounds really good as well. Will be keeping an eye on this thread . . Gg
Looks like you have this one under control lol. Best of luck to you, I wanna see how well it turns out
Thanks mate, I appreciate your interest. Your grow is looking really good right now too. I am hoping for better luck too, but better luck usualy comes with more experience. So we'll see. I hope I have it under control. Thanks for the support, I hope it turns out well, but you can never be too sure. We can only wait and see. On another note, I am still waiting for an email confirmation from Poppy at heavens stairway. It'll come. Can't wait.
alright man, wishing you the best of luck this time around. I dont know what to tell you... I just used some soil i bought at a nursery, nothing to special. I just planted the seed in the ground and let it grow. No fert, no tranplanting, no pruning. nothing except watering and it did just fine, but it gets a lot of sun where it is, and mabey it being outdoors helped it out. Im not sure i would do as well on an indoor grow. I'll watch this thread and see how you do. Good luck man!
Thanks for the support I appreciate it. I'm hoping for the best right now. On another note, I still haven't recieved a confirmation email from poppy at heavens stairway. It's not like him, last time I ordered I recieved it in a matter of days. But maybe that's because I chose express mail, I am not all too sure. No matter I am in no rush, just as long as I get it.
News: I recieved my email notice that my order was recieved. So it is only time now until I am swimming in seeds.
I recieved my seeds today. I am already germinating them. I'll post a few pics when they germ. I'm using papertowl in the tupperware container method.
cant wait to follow your journal LST is so interesting to follow! i might start it too but im still reading and getting information about it and ill wait for my plant to be taller a bit. let s hope lots will germinate!! naomi -xx-
HIGH All, right on!!!! Glad your seeds arrived!! As everyone here can't wait to see them grow up to be gorgeous ladies we All strive for. How are your clones making out?
GRR I WROTE OUT REPLIES TO EVERYONE AND THEN MY IMAGE MAX WAS EXCEEDED I don't wanna rewrite the replies right now, maybe in half an hour when I don't feel so stupid. Here's a pic of my germ method: Wet paper towel on the bottom, wet paper towel on the top. Air blown in, lid places on top of tupperware container. Tupperware container put on top of monitor. And here is what left of my package kind of like proof that I am growing what I say I am growing.
It happened me a few times before as well so if i write a big reply, i copy it before i attach an image just incase! Saves a lot of time cos it happens quite a lot lol! Is it mainly indica/sativa or wot? dunno much bout that 1! Good luck! CWL
Thanks, I hope they are good genetics. If they are all mutated or wont germinate I am gonna email them my thoughts. Thanks, I can't wait to post the pictures Thanks, I don't know what it is about LST but I love it too. I think I am going to do a SCROG when flowering comes around, along with some fimming at 4 nodes. LST is really easy btw, you just tie em down, and the lower parts recieve more light and whammo you have new budding areas. As for the germination, well I have 1 in under 24 hours already. Waiting for the rest. The clones are doing half decent, 2 out of 4 so far. I'm expecting all of the 4 soon though. I babied them waaaay too much, and payed for it in time. Well I did copy it. Then I copied a photolink. I didn't really think anything of it. THEN WHAM. I have to re-write everything . It's mostly indica, I was looking for something smaller so I can do lot of training to maximise bud sites and yield. Thanks for the well wishing man, later.
i just did a little research on your strain and man i like it! Looks absolutely gorgeous, I gotta get some of that! Overall_Rating:_\t9_\t_\t Effect:_\tCouchlock, body stone Potency:_\t9_\t_\t Stature:_\tSomewhat short and squat Yield:_\t8_\t_\t Phenotype:_\tIndica Ease:_\t8_\t_\t Indoor:_\t60 to 65 days Appearance:_\t10_\t_\t Outdoor:_\tNot Listed Odor Level:_\t8_\t_\t Odor:_\tThe PERFECT smell- Berries everywhere! Taste Level:_\t10_\t_\t Taste:_\tThis is it... Very strong NL with a hint of berry. The smell is very very potent-carbon filter is #1 here. Somewhat short, with great yield. The trich content is amazing as well. The colors blew me away. They went from light greenish blue to a beautiful clear sky blue in the end. The taste is truly the best to date. Nothing I have tasted could beat it! Very strong NL taste I felt. The blueberry taste sits on your tongue for hours with very little dry mouth. It smells so good it just keeps watering... Another KEEPER, highly recommended for amateur or proffesional. Very potent, will sit you down to marinate on each hit. Very lung expanding so hold on. Very easy to grow. CWL
Well I got 6 germed and in there pots right now. Another one has shown there tap root, I have just been too lazy to put it in its pot, I'll probably do that in a few minutes. Here's a picture of them before they pop. You can see my AK47 clones in the back there.
One of the plants have already broke through the soil! Wow! 1 and a half days and they break through the soil. I'm impressed, not all of my seeds have even germinated yet. I would show a pic but my camera is really pathetic. I might try again tomorrow.
