Hi Everyone,
I have a new grow going in a new tent so I thought I should make a diary to share with the international community, please feel free to add comments and criticisms, I am here to learn from everyone after all.
Strains are Green Poison and Cream Mandarine FV
Green Poison is a 70/30 indica dominant skunk Cream Mandarine Fast Version is a 60/40 indica dom hybrid, a mixture of the cream mandarine auto and a nycd genetic.
7 Green Poison and 3 Cream Mandarine FV
The space is a 1.2 x 2.2 x 2m tent
Medium is 100% Coco fed with drippers in a drain to waste set up.
Lights - 2 x 315w LEC
Nutrients - Lucas Formula for coco H3AD's Recipe
Pot Size - 200mm pots
Currently feeding 3/4 strength lucas forumula 4 times a day EC 1.0
PH 5.8
The story so far,
each seed was soaked in ph 5.8 water for a couple of hours then sown directly into propagation tubes filled with coco.
here they are after the first transplant into 6 inch pots. Initial growth was slow, I wasn't feeding them enough it turned out
here they are a few days later, the cream mandarines are on the top left saucer, one looks a little unhappy
Ok here I have transplanted to the 200mm pots and topped all the plants. I have also installed this crazy drainage collection network of pots perched on buckets. It was as annoying to collect run off as it looked and was a disaster waiting to happen I feel.
Here sense prevails and I have installed some proper drainage tables mounted on some aluminium tubing frames. So, so much better!!!
Starting to veg along here
I flipped to 12/12 here, a few days after the last photo, flip was 26th of feb
5 days later March 3rd
Today I prunned up the lower parts of the plants, those branches that were never going to get into the light anyway.
We are ending day 6 of 12/12 lighting here now Australia time. I will be changing the nutrient reservoir tomorrow and raising the EC to 1.2
Cheers
