Hello there everyone of !
This is my first journal as well as my first ever grow, so try not to be to critical . I have been stalking the forums here for months, compiling research and soaking up all the wealth of knowledge here...really appreciate the dedication people, awesome community. Anyways, lets get started here:
What strain is it? 1x 3 different strains all AUTOFLOWERS (Girl Scout Cookies, Fast Buds White Widow x Big Bud, and Heavyweight Fast & Vast)
Is it Indica, Sativa or Hybrid? What percentages? Autoflower, Hybrids
Is it in Veg or Flower stage? 2 days since popping out of plugs; very early veg
Indoor or outdoor? Indoor 4x4 Apollo Horticulture
Soil or Hydro? Hydro; Deep Water Culture 5 Gal bubbble buckets with 2 large airstones each and 10in net pots.
Size of light? 1000w MH/HPS Predator Hood with Nanolux 1000w Ballast OG series
Is it aircooled? Yes 6inch Can-Fan Pro Series 420cfm exhausting out of room to carbon filter; passive intake
Temp of Room/cab? 70-85F
RH of Room/cab? 40-60%
PH of media or res? 5.4-6.2 optimal 5.8
Any Pests ? nothing yet
How often are you watering? Will add water when appropriate, water line a little past the net pots (will bring down as roots grow longer)
Type and strength of ferts used? Using z7 water treatment 2 part throughout entire grow. Also, will be using Advanced Nutrients ph perfect 3 part MICRO, GROW, and BLOOM once more true leaves come in. Also, looking at getting addition Advanced Nutrients products, especially for flowering.
Germination: All three seeds were germinated inside Rapid Rooter plugs. On 10/24: I soaked the plugs in DO water overnight, then soaked the seeds for approx. 6 hours in DO water as well. 10/25: After this, I shook/squeezed the plugs gently to get excess water out;and then, I placed the seeds carefully and in a sterile manner inside the plugs. I placed the plugs inside of a tray with a humidity dome ontop. NOTE* when I put the seeds in the Rapid Rooters, I tore a piece off from the bottom to put lightly over top of the hole so no light could reach the roots. 10/28:The GSC and the WWxBB popped out of Rapid Rooters, final seed Fast&Vast popped from Rapid Rooter that night.
Vegging:
10/29: Checked roots, visible small roots coming from bottom and sides of all plugs; decided to transplant them to their final homes already, straight to the DWC bubble buckets for these bad chickas. I have them under the MH bulb now, only running at 50%, I want them to adjust to the new light and the intensity before I go full on.
Girl Scout Cookies
White Widow x Big Bud
Heavyweights Fast&Vast
How am I doing so far peoples? Please let me know if there are changes that need to be made. I am taking this very serious and really want my hard work and OCD to amount to a wonderful harvest. I'll appreciate any and all feedback.
