Hello all,
In preparation of growing some huge outdoor girls this year, I'm going to document my steps for all to see. I am by far an experienced grower. I grew some Northern Lights in a closet in my 20's about 20 years ago. But now that my country has legalized...It's time to start back up again.
I am finishing up a pretty sad indoor grow (315 watt CMH, 4x4 tent), where I learned TONS about EC & pH meters, salt-based nutrients, as well as burning plants with hot doses, and neglecting plants by not feeding them enough. I've decided to put the tent on hold for this summer season, and focus on 4 outdoor girls to make it through to the fall up here in the Pacific North West.
Strains: 1 White Widow (Crop King Seeds), 2 Blueberry & 1 Cream Caramel (Sonoma Seeds).
The seeds started their germination last Sunday (24-hour soak, then a paper towel for 4 days), and today I planted them in 50/50 pro-mix/perlite and they will sit in my kitchen for the first few weeks. I bought some dolomite lime the other day because I read that pro-mix over time can lean towards the acidic side, but I haven't put any in yet. I'll be using the REMO line of nutrients, but I don't plan on adding any nutes for the first few weeks of veg.
I'm looking forward to sharing this grow with you and receiving some awesome suggestions to make it better! Here's where these ladies will live out their lives... I hope my baby artichoke plants give them some love!
Thanks
