First grow, still learning and hope to keep learning for a long time. Im trying to keep this grow as organic as possible. Ive chosen CKS strains Black Indica and CB Dutch Treat for their THC and CBD levels as I use for chronic back pain and sleep issues due to back pain. I purchased 5 seeds of each and started with just 2 of each first.
Grow is currently in flowering, switched Jan.29 2017 and all plants were in veg for 5 weeks. This is an indoor soil grow. Ive built a grow closet in one of my spare bedrooms.
Seedlings started life in 1gal airpots with Farfad starter/seedling soil. Then were transferred to 3gal fabric smart pots once roots reached edges of airpots. I switched to a home mix soil once in the 3gal pots. It used Farfad organic urban garden soil, bone and bone meal, perlite, compost, dehydrated kelp, and worm castings.
Lighting began with a single Mars Hydro 300w led full spectrum light then I added supplemental cfl lighting on the sides when the plants grew.
Closet consists of walls covered in reflective insulation, 2 small fans for air in and out, digital humidity and temp reader, and my diy scrog net. RH in closet is between 30-50% depending on when I water. Temps are 20-25 c lights off and on. No pests and I water with 6.5ph dechlorinated water.
I haven't had any pest issues and Im currently going into week 4 of flowering. I dont use any chemical ferts. I have used kept tea and worm casting tea during veg and now use molasses in flowering
All plants were topped once and lst under the scrog net. I used one top to clone, youll see the photos in here. Also one of my Black Indicas was a runt so I decided to experiment with it by mainlining and its been doing well. Youll also see a couple cameo shots of my sweet potato plant I started at the same time
Here are some photos from beginning to where i am now. Ive tried to keep them in order. In the later photos the runt mainline Indica is missing as Ive placed in under a seperate light. I will update with photos of that soon.
This is my clone taken from a top that I will be using as a mother plant. Next to it is the potato plant I started at the same time as the seedlings
Hope you enjoy, any feedback is appreciated.
