Gee's First Grow - Supersoil Fully Organic LED 2017

[Canada Guy]

Hey Gee, fellow canuck here. Mind if I pull up a chair and watch your grow?

 

[Gee64]

Canada Guy Welcome!!

 

[Gee64]

I installed the ventilation yesterday before leaving for work. I monitor the environment remotely from my phone and it seems to be sitting at 79 degrees and 56 to 58 percent humidity so thats not too bad. I can speed up or slow down the fan so I still have control over it in either direction.

 

[Gee64]

Tomorrow I will start a compost tea brewing for about 48 hours to give each plant about 2 cups of microbe tea. I try to do this about half way through every watering cycle just when the soil is starting to dry so it doesnt run off too much.
Usually its some steer manure and earthworm castings with molasses and kelp. Sometimes I also add some alphalpha. This time I will be using a tea made by Blue Sky Organics called VitAlive and I will also add some Blue Sky Organics Organic Booster which looks suspiciously close to molasses but we will see. I usually see a spurt of vitality following a dose of tea. Hopefully I will with their tea too.

[Gee64]

Awesome Velk I very much appreciate it. I grow all sorts of things, superhot peppers being my main produce, but I have never grown cannabis indoors and not outdoors since I was a kid. Welcome and thanks

 

[Gee64]

PW! Hey man glad your here.

 

[Pennywise]

Ive looked at CKS Durban and i'd like to watch and see how it grows if you dont mind.

 

[Gee64]

Dont mind? Penny I'm really glad your here

 

[Gee64]

Penny they are discussing light times in the other journal. Would I be better at 20/4 than my current 18/6?

 

[Pennywise]

Hey Gee, i really want a Durban but im skeptical about finding real landrace genetics.

 

[Pennywise]

Ive used both with autos and leave mine at 18/6, they do need a dark period to function properly.

 

[Gee64]

I actually bought these seeds on a whim a few months back. All the landraces really have me intrigued now. I want a pure Durban as well as a pure Hawaiian and a pure Panama Red. As legalization spreads I think the demand will open up a market for real landraces.

 

[Gee64]

Im trying to cover alot of trial on this first grow. Manifolding, 4 different strains, what the differences are in the phenos... on and on. Im already planning my next grow and I'm not even through veg yet

 

[Pennywise]

Lol look at Ace Seeds, they have landrace and pure strains

 

[Gee64]

Yes I have. They have some really nice stuff. Their Malawi caught my eye. I need to find a few different ones and do them all at once to match up the longer bud periods

 

[Pennywise]

I have the Malawi and Zamdelica in my seed stash

 

[Gee64]

How did they grow?

 

[Pennywise]

I havent run them yet but i will this winter

 

[Gee64]

Excellent! I'll gladly sit in on that one.
