New City Grower 2.0

I'd like to welcome everyone to the new and improved version of New City Grower;

New City Grower 2.0



We'll be starting where we left off in the original version but with upgrades in the blooming department, a new selection of strains, new nutrients, separate grow tents for vegging and flowering, better medium, a grow coach, and an over all better understanding of what I'm doing since I started the last journal.​

For those of you who may not know my 420 history it's a story in itself. Unlike so many newbies who decide to start growing and purchase the necessities to begin I on the other hand found a seedling growing outside on it's own, dug her up and brought her inside.​
At the time I knew nothing about growing any type of plant life and had never seen a cannabis plant other than in pictures for that matter. After looking online trying to figure what to do with my rescued plant I found 420 magazine. The rest was history.

That first plant is still my pride & joy and just about ready to be harvested for the second time.
You all know her as LAVERNE

So hold on tight as we crank it up a little. Let's get this thing started.​
 
Dustys in buddy first row too! Beatifull story. I started groing in my younger years as a teenager had kids guit then as Im in my thirtys my dad tells me he has cancer so I started agin. My father didnt tell me till he was terminal and he died right before the first harvest. I was gonna quit again but I felt as my father wanted me to do this so I march on helping other pepole with dissease live a life with quality and try to send a message to everyone else that this plant does more good than harm
 
First off, I'd like to thank all the early birds who've already tuned in.

Here we go.


I have a new grow tent for flowering which is the same model as the one I've been using.
4 X 2 in diameter, 5 ft tall

In the new tent we'll be running a Top Led 96x3w reflector donated to me by two of the most gracious members here on :420: with two CFLs to see better & take pictures.

The HAPPY FROG soil combined with the SCIENTIFIC SOILS soil mix and VERMICULITE has QUEEN THAI happy so I'll be using that medium mix for awhile.

What's a QUEEN THAI? We'll get to that.

I had an accident while putting the tent together. I knocked over the cup that had the SLEESTACK X SKUNK # 1 Day 5 seedling in it and went ahead to transplant immediately. I didn't get a chance to photograph her before the transplant so I used a picture from last week. To germinate all my seedlings I use my old lady's mother's soil mix she uses to grow tomatoes in. I'm at 100% with it and have dubbed it MOMMY'S SPECIAL TOMATO SOIL.

Also one of the FLOWER POWER beans tap-rooted today. It took less than 30 hrs. She's in a cup now.

sweet, I'm in. where'd you get that led from!

really weird I was literally just replying to potzilla's journal about those 3 exact nutrients and I was saying be careful cause they're strong concentrates.

I think kumiko iv is gonna show you some true love, you just wait.
