Thanks to 420 Magazine and Weed Seeds Express for providing the Girl Scout Cookies seeds for this grow.
I'll be following my usual methods and routines with a couple of exceptions, all described below.
Environment: Indoors, 4x4 tent
Medium: Supersoil - once-used Coast of Maine Stonington blend re-amended similar to Sub Cool's recipe
Lighting:
- Seedling/early veg - CFLs
- Veg/Early Flower - 400w MH
- Flower - 1000w HPS
Ventilation: 2x6" inline fans (intake and extraction), 3xCircular fans
Nutrients: Fish On! liquid fish fertilizer, Nectar for the Gods (custom regimen), possibly other additions
Techniques: I have a fairly lazy and gadget-free approach to growing cannabis. I use tap water. I test pH using liquid drops as I'm too disorganized to trust myself to keep a pH pen clean and calibrated. I have no temperature or humidity control other than by using ventilation. I don't do slurry tests or runoff tests or even monitor temperature or humidity. I'll be topping the plants twice and applying some LST and supercropping as necessary. I do use a cheap digital microscope to check trichomes at harvest.
I typically veg for 8 weeks, but will only be going 6 weeks for this grow for a couple of reasons:

I typically veg for 8 weeks, but will only be going 6 weeks for this grow for a couple of reasons:
- Due to summer heat, I'll need to keep the plants shorter than normal
- My prime growing run is between late July and December, so I'll need this one to finish around the beginning of August so I can start that grow.
