Hello all and welcome to my Summer Grow 2023! After a nearly 5 month growing hiatus, I'm more than happy to be back in the grow game with all my friends here at 420MAGAZINE! I've been busy in my regular garden but have been itching to get back to my true love-growing cannabis!
Off kilter for me as I usually start these journals pre seed drop with tons of preceding information but better late than never as they say!
I also usually have two tents going at once, this grow round, we are limiting my grow space to my larger tent, a 4x4, housed with a @Mars Hydro FC4800 and 6 in inline, exhaust and carbon filter system.
Surprise, for all my old readers who know me, I will be moving my auto outdoors to finish her cycle once I need the space in my grow tent for my blossoming photoperiods. I have all intents on grabbing a large butterfly enclosure for her to use as an outdoor "tent"-helping me avoid pesky things like bugs, which I both loathe and am scared of in terms of my outdoor gardening-be it veggies or now, this attempt with an autoflower.
I use FFOF soil with plenty of dry amendments: DYNOMYCO mychorizzal, earthworm castings, Epsom salt, bat and seabird guano and bone meal. I use Ecoworks cold pressed neem oil in the summers for gnat prevention, a soil spray will do ya wonders!
Liquid amendments used in both the Vegetative and Flowering Cycle are: Humboldt's Tree Trunk Silica and FF Bush Doctor Cal-Mag. Come flower, I also integrate in Humboldt's Flower Stacker beginning at Week 3.
I'm currently still using Prescription Blend Nutrients, whom recently went out of business. I was so saddened to hear of this as I adored this 6 part system but I do have enough for this and another grow, at least before I need to make a decision to change over.
The mix I have consists of Indicas, Sativas, and Hybrids. 5 photoperiods and 1 autoflower. Here's a brief breakdown of what we have going on and as the days progress, I will do daily focal plants and get more into detail about each strain, it's terpenes, medicinal uses, lineage, etc. Probably even throw in some pics of my old grows of the same strains so we can use them for comparative purposes.
Amnesia (not Amnesia Haze) was a favorite of mine and also a first grow in my Ammy. She spawned a second first, in a monster crop I did of her, named Ammy Jr. Both were sensational buds, phenomenal smoke.
Sour G, is a new strain for me, a CBG strain at that. It was gifted to me and I am forever thankful as it hold many medicinal wonders inside!
G-13, a re-run of my 2nd grow in G. She was a full, dense and heavy yielding and super heavy hitting wonder. Said to be part of a government mind control operation...
Durban Poison, another new seed to me-a gift that turns into another gift as this happens to be my sister's all time fave smoke. A South African find with no known prior landraces.
Blue Cheese, my favorite autoflower. I ran several of these, 3 in total, prior to this one. What a smoke and what aroma and flavor! Blueberry and Cheese mix.
NYC Diesel, a mind numbing, kerosene smelling hybrid. Intoxicating effects from the aroma alone.
I've got some awesome variegated leaves on my NYC Diesel, a stunted Blue Cheese Auto, a self topped, mutant Amnesia, a super fast growing Durban Poison and a right on the time line, G-13 and Sour G. This will be an interesting grow!
The following photos were taken Tuesday, Wednesday
These plants sprouted on June 13th-15th. They were up-potted to 3gl water reserve homes on June 22nd. They will have 1 final move to 5gl water reserve homes 1-2 weeks before flip to flower.
These last 4 photos were taken this morning. They were fed on Wednesday night with their last week 1/2 veg feed. They will be given Silica water Sunday and will move onto Week 3/4 veg feed the following watering day.
For those of you who followed my Cultiuana journal, my apologies for the double pics of Tues and Wed but I did want to showcase the obvious 2 day growth seen just in that limited time frame, post feed.
I'll be back with more interesting things as time goes on, I'm going tag free this round so I hope everyone can find their way over. Promise to make things educational, fun and exciting and I'll try to move slower and not post so much at once for both your sake and mine!
Happy growing friends!
