Hello,
This is a medicinal marijuana grow journal. This is my first grow journal and 4th grow so I have much to learn. I am following the moderator's template. If I can add anything helpful please let me know. My hope is that with your help I'll be able to become self sufficient and control the quality of my medicine. If you have any questions or comments I am grateful.
My current grow is Sensi Seeds Shiva Skunk. I germed all ten seeds and ended up with 4 females and 6 males. I culled all the males. I gave 2 of the females to my mentor and he says that they are AMAZING! He's been growing for 30 years so that's a good testament to the genetics of this strain. Once these are finished the White Fire fems will be going into the cabinet to begin flowering.
QUESTION: For anyone with 1st hand knowledge of the WiFi strain. Does she respond well to topping, training? Would a ScrOG improve yield? Should I leave them to grow natural (no training)?
Here are my Shiva Skunks at 4 weeks.
On to the current grow. Here are the details following the Grow Journal template here: How to Make a Grow Journal
Strain: White Fire aka WiFi
Type: Hybrid 50% Sativa 50% Indica
Stage: Veg — germinated on 12/18/2013
Environment: Indoor stealth closet grow
Medium: Organic Soil
Soil Mix: 2.5 cu ft Organic bag soil + 1 cu ft Worm Castings + ½ cu ft perlite + 1 cup per cu ft each of Dolomite Lime, Bone Meal, Alfalfa Meal and Azomite + 2 cups per cu ft Kelp Meal. For germinating seeds I use an Organic bag seed and clone mix. (Not sure if naming brands is ok).
Pot size: 4" for seeds and clones. Transplant to 1 gal then to their resting place in 5 gallon smart pots (I think they're called). They are made of some type of material and seem to work well for me.
Lighting: 1x 200 watt LED (actual draw 150) + 1x 400 watt LED (actual draw 370 with UVB side lighting turned on) + 1x 42 watt CFL + 3x 22 watt T5s. The LEDs have cooling fans in them.
Cabinet Temp: Lights off 60 — 65 degrees. Lights on 73 — 80
Cabinet Size: 2' deep x 3' wide x 7' high
Humidity: 40 — 65
PH: Soil stays around 6.8. I adjust water to 6.2 — 6.5 after adding ferts
Pests: None so far
Watering: As needed. I use a soil moisture detector to judge when the plants should be watered
Ferts: Liquid bat guano, liquid kelp, Epsom salt, liquid fish, Humeric acid, Cal-Mag, Molasses
Germination method: Soaked in a glass of water overnight then planted thumbnail deep in soil. They sprouted in 2 and 5 days respectively. The big one was first the small one came up a few days later
I veg in a 18"x 33"x37" Grow box with a SunBlaze 2' 4 bulb light and a couple CFLs. I have a Small Can Lite charcoal filter and inline fan in the veg box. I also have a 9" fan to move the air. It stays between 70 and 80 year round. I can bump the temp by adjusting the inline fan speed. Pretty sweet actually and a definite bonus I wasn't expecting
I flower in a 2'x3'x7' converted storage cabinet. I bought it pre made. I have replaced the crappy 70 watt UFO LEDs with some newer 5 watt diode LEDs. I'm running 628 actual watts in the flower cab. That is 104 watts per square ft. I would be happy to harvest .5 Grams per watt, and with your help maybe more
OK, On to the pics!
Seeds:
2 Weeks after Germination:
3 Weeks after Germination:
4 Weeks after germination:
I'm looking forward to all your help and support.
