It's been almost 2 years since my last journal and ItsTheWater has come back to share and show my successes over the last few years and more recently, my solo grow ventures! It's pretty late here for me and I had knee surgery today so I'll only post a few images for you to preview from beginning of this most recent go around....
There is a link to my first and only 420mag journal in my signature for those of you who have not seen it!
Before we jump in, all the info first! A list/setup of what is going down around these here parts!
What strain is it?
Currently flowering are 2 Blue Dreams, 2 Trainwrecks (might be the legendary Arcata cut, has been finishing at 42 days!), and 1 Lucy. Veg tent has Blue Dreams, Pineapple Kush, Trainwreck, and Lucy clones/mothers in it. Seed box has a ton of variety getting ready to hopefully germinate.
Is it Indica, Sativa or Hybrid? What percentages?
4 Sativa's flowering(BD,TW) 1 Hybrid (Lucy)
Is it in Veg or Flower stage?
You will be seeing a majority of just my flower room. I have a veg tent too but they're boring minus the weight training I do.
If in Veg... For how long?
They vegged for about a month before I flipped them to flower.
If in Flower stage... For how long?
It's the start of day 41 of flower tonight.
Indoor or outdoor?
Indoor!
Soil or Hydro?
Soil still rocks!
If soil... what is in your mix?
I currently use a 2:1 FFOF/FFLW mix with added Perlite for drainage.
If soil... What size pot?
We're flowering in 10gallon Smart Pots.
Size of light?
Flower has 2 1000watt lights. 1 MH, 1HPS. Veg has a 6 bulb T5 panel. Clone room has two T7, 1 warm, 1 cool spectrum lights and a 23w halo cool spectrum lamp as well.
Is it aircooled?
Absolutely. 6" duct with a hydrofarm inline fan attached to a Organic Air Charcoal filter.
Temp of Room/cab?
Flower stays at 81-84ºF with tons of available CO2 in the air (2 adults living in the room, one currently out of work on knee surgery.) Veg stays at about 75ºF or so as well.
RH of Room/cab?
RH in flower varies. During the day it's at about 40-47% RH and at night I keep it between 52-55% RH. This will be lowered as the plants enter their ending weeks.
PH of media or res?
Haven't checked in a long time because I'm too trusting...Was around 6.6 last time I did check though.
Any Pests ?
We've dealt with a few of the Fox Farms fungus gnats here and there but nothing too exciting. I took care of a vast majority of them by drying out the soil earlier on in flower to kill off any larvae they had left. I see a few things flying every once in a blue moon. Plants are looking great though so nothing that's set off alarms quite yet.
How often are you watering?
Every 3rd day the flowering room get's a little over 2 gallons per plant with nutrients coming ever other feeding.
Type and strength of ferts used?
I currently use General Organics Vegan Nutrient line with Bio bud, Bio thrive bloom, and CaMg supplements. The plants love this stuff and it hasn't seemed to fail me yet with 100% success in clones, mothers, plants, and flower since switching to it. Love it.
Alright, enough long winded ness. Here is a photo from 5 days before I switched the lights to 12/12. It's nothing spectacular but it gives you an idea of where they were to where they are now...

Here is a shot of the canopy 14 days later, or 9 days into flowering. April 15, 2013
And a upskirt shot for you pervs out there (not best quality, late 90s porn status). April 15, 2013
Hope you enjoy what you've seen thus far and you come back to follow up. I have many pictures to post and much time to do it with knee recovery now commencing!
