Hey everyone! So I've been lurking around this forum for a while now, soaking in the endless knowledge that everyone shares here - well at least as much as my feeble brain will allow. After seeing all the dense nug pictures from everyone else's grows, I've decided to lean backwards, spread my wings, and take the plunge into a grow all my own.
It's bound to be full of mistakes, so please, sit back, laugh with me, and enjoy this comic relief. Any suggestions along the way will be appreciated. Now on to the good stuff.
I'm anticipating this to be a fairly long post, so ill post again after this with some pictures so far...
First up, the grow room(s) information.
The first area - the vegetation chamber, is nearly complete. It is made with my two skilled hands with equipment I've had laying about. The interior dimensions are 4'x4.5'x6.5'. It is constructed out of 2x4s, 3 5/8" metal studs and track, and 5/8" drywall. It is not light proof yet, until Saturday, when the panda film gets delivered. Then the floor and walls will be wrapped in it.
The second area - the flowering house, is only in the planning stages as of right now, but expecting much of the same with the interior dimensions being closer to 5'x5'.
The lighting - inside the vegetation chamber currently are 4 Citizen clu048-1212 COBs with a light spectrum of 6500k. They are hung on any adjustable aluminum rack, that i can move up and down as the girls tell me to using a pulley and airplane cable. Two more cobs should be delivered tomorrow, then 2 more soon after that. They are powered be a Mean Well HLG-320H-36B driver with a 100k ohm potentiometer. I also have 4 100 watt (23 watts from the wall) 6500k CFL lights that I have not installed yet.
The flowering house has not been decided upon yet, but all help and suggestions will be considered.
The medium - this grow, after seeds pop (more on then shortly) will start in 4" Rockwool cubes and then into 5 gallon Hempy style buckets. The bottom 1/4 of these Hempy buckets will be perlite, then above that will be General Hydroponics CocoTek. May throw some perlite on the top, but have not decided just yet.
Nutrients - nothing special or fancy - RO water, Advanced nutrients Cal Mag Xtra (4-0-0), and General Hydroponics FloraBloom. pH Up and pH Down as needed.
Let's talk about the babies...
3 strains, hopeful to have all the seeds pop and have 2 of each of the following feminized seeds...
Barney Farms Bad Azz Kush - Feminized x2
Bad Azz OG is a Kush strain which comes from pre-'98 lineage Los Angeles. Our friends from Nectar sector deliveries asked the rapper to endorse it with his name attached to this potent Kush. Bad Azz - from Snoop Dogg's entourage known as the Dogg Pound. The Original OG was crossed with an Afghan Kush and thereafter the result was crossed again with Urkel to produce this wonderful marijuana strain.
Bad Ass Kush is a heavy, resinous cannabis strain, tested at 24% THC and 1.1% CBD. This is a very dank, fuel-smelling plant with undertones of forest fruits that has a knock out effect. This strain produces big buds with an amazingly heavy yield. Growing to between 120 - 170 cm. and producing yields of 700 gr/m2 she will finish in 8 weeks flowering (7 weeks with a little help if you are lucky) but she needs to be pruned during the vegetative stage and she can stretch quite a bit in bloom so ensure that there is sufficient space and headroom. Outdoors harvest will be during the second half of September in the northern hemisphere.
A powerfully relaxing strain that can cause some couch-lock especially in those not used to it.

Up next, DinaFem's Blue Cheese:
Blue Cheese is a cross of two very well-known marijuana strains viz. UK Cheese and Blueberry. It is an indica-dominant plant with a complex aroma/flavour profile and a wonderfully relaxing effect.,/p>
Dinafem's Blue Cheese can be grown outdoors as well as indoors thanks to the particularly fast-flowering Blueberry that they used in its creation. Where the temperature falls markedly at night plants will turn a range of purple and blue colours which adds to the beauty of this plant. Indoors flowering takes just 50 - 55 days with yields of 550 gr/m2. Growers are advised to not let this strain veg, too long as it will stretch to triple its height once flowering occurs. Outdoors or in a greenhouse plants can grow to a height of 3 meters yielding between 600 - 800 gr/plant before the first half of October is over. In cooler regions the display of colour will be most pronounced.
An utterly delicious combination of cheese and berries hit the nostrils and palate making it one of the most unmistakeable of cannabis strains. THC production is high at between 15% - 20% with surprisingly low CBD for a variety that delivers such a physically relaxing effect that is powerful and of long duration.

And last but not least, Dr. Krippling's Chemdog Millionaire:
eds are ready to harvest in 8-9 weeks in End October. This Feminised seed grows well in Greenhouse, Indoors, Outdoors conditions. Additionally it can be expected to grow into a Tall plant reaching 160-200 cm. This strain has Delhi Friend x Chemdawg Genetics. It has a Very High (over 20%) THC Content. The CBD content of the strain is Unknown.
Some parts are toxically fruity, chemically, sweet and sour, yet some parts are earthy, dank with a pine forest aroma and flavour. Chemdog Millionaire tantalises and tickles the full spectrum of senses in ones body. It can refresh and rejuvenate, yet it may also chill the F out of you, relax you like nothing ever has before and induce sleep. It can sort your head out and clear your senses, yet it can also cloud your head and senses, and one could find oneself concentrating and meditating on pointless shi@ for hours on end.

I also have on hand some Lemon Candy and Girl Scout Crack (2 of each) but did not germinate them, as my grow area suggests I stop at these for now. I purchased the Chemdog Millionaire from the Seedsman seed bank and got the others as freebies.
Right now, the 6 seeds are in paper towels, in a Ziploc baggie, inside a paper bag waiting to pop.
Follow along, chime in, giggle and laugh, and enjoy the ride. My next post will be pictures of the process so far.
