Re: LED Grow Journal

Time has passed and much has changed.

I have unfortunately lost confidence in the LED panels I was using, and have retired them in favor of a 2' 4bulb Sun Systems High Output T5 lamp along with 4 42watt (2700lumen) CFL's.

In short, the plants have loved this, as you will see shortly.

The large ladies will be moving to an off-site 12/12 place, likely within the week. I recently got some herb that was decent, but either slightly pollinated or slightly hermie, as I got some seeds. This has been a good thing, however, as I germinated 9 or 12 of them by presoaking and then using the paper towel method to get a root tip before placing them in rapid rooter plugs. 3 are still in paper towels, 2 are waiting to pop above ground, and 7 have popped, of which 4 are doing very well. no visible roots yet, but these are fewer than 4 days old across the board.

My clones have finally started growing little stubby roots! the best one had some inch long roots hugging the surface of the plug, so I got it into a pot of fox farms OF soil. Other 2 should show me roots soon....

finally got my fox farms nutrients- but only the grow big. not flowering any plants yet, so no need to drop money on other nutes yet. using 3tsp/gal every few days, supplemented with a little superthrive.

finally got an oscillating fan, plus the other one was starting to crap out on me. got a computer fan wired up to exhaust air via my ceiling as well. got a thermometer humidity thingy. you'll see it all in the pics. here we go:

From what is Dudeism trying to liberate us? Thinking that’s too uptight.
To what state of being is Dudeism trying to bring us? Just taking it easy, man.
By what means does Dudeism attempt do this? Abiding.
Now, that’s f'ing ingenious, if I understand it correctly.
