Hello,
I, alongside sixtheddie, have started our first ever CFL grow. While we are both very new at this, we are excited to learn the ins and outs of growing. We currently started growing about two weeks ago, when we went to a local dispensary to pick up 3 clones. (1 sativa and 2 indicas).
We have used this website alot lately as the community of growers have been really helpful with all our questions and concerns. I am mainly keeping this journal to track what I have learned so far, but if it's seems interesting feel free to subscribe!
A bit of information on the plants and setup:
What strain is it? Headband, Grape Ape and Star Dawg
Is it Indica, Sativa or Hybrid? What percentages? 1 sativa and 2 indicas
Is it in Veg or Flower stage? Veg Stage
If in Veg... For how long? 2nd week or about 10 days
If in Flower stage... For how long? NA
Indoor or outdoor? Indoor
Soil or Hydro? Soil
If soil... what is in your mix? 70% organic soil, 30% perlite
If soil... What size pot? 3gal pot, I believe
Size of light? 12 23w CFL bulbs, (4 on each plant)
Is it aircooled? no
Temp of Room/cab? 74 degrees
RH of Room/cab? 70%
PH of media or res? not sure
Any Pests ? No
How often are you watering? when soil is dry, about every 3 days
Type and strength of ferts used? Fox Farm's Grow Big and Big Bloom, dosage on the bottle
WEEK 1 Update:
These are pictures from the day we bought them:
Star Dawg (Indica)
Grape Ape (Indica)
Headband (Sativa)
During week 1, we had some problems with the roots establishing themselves in the soil. Headband and Star Dawg were doing really good compared to Grape Ape as it started to droop. We were given the advice to create a humidity dome and place it over the top of the plant. After doing so, the plant started to do much better. And is looking great.
Before
After
They all seem to being doing great after placing humidity domes on all three of them.
Stay tuned for Week 2 update!
