Ok. Here it is. My first journal. Starting it out with Mendocino 69 (also known as "mendo purps" or "the purps") and China Jack (which is jack herer crossed with pollen from a Chinese Yunnan indica - you won't find this one on the internet. If you know about this strain, then we probably know each other. That's awesome! - but don't call me out please)
A little about the Strains:
M69 (2 plants)
-Sativa60/Indica40
-I think its a Purple Urkle cross but I'm not sure, if anyone has info on the lineage, would appreciate the input
-First time blooming this one
-Woody/Pine taste (says the internet)
-Featured in the top ten high times strains of the year in 2007 (this was when it was a clone only- I got the seeds from BCbud)
-8-9 weeks
China Jack (2 plants)
-Best guess on the ratio is Indica60-70/Sativa30-40
-Chinese Indica x jack herer
-I've run this one several times. Pretty familiar with it.
-Sort of a piney/earthy taste and smell
-9-10 weeks
Hardware, Nutes, and other details:
-Inside
-15x20x10ft space
-Coco 60%/Perlite 30%
-5 gallon pots
-watering once a day for the time being
-Running GH three part according to their schedule +calmag, yucca extract (I mix my own bottles of it), multi-zen and nitrogen boost from house and garden, liquid kool bloom, MOAB, bud xl from house and garden
-h2o2 1ml/g with every watering
-PPM right now: 450
-Feed it 5.8-6
-Runs out 6-6.3
-All four are under one 1000w dual arc hortilux bulb (air cooled hood) for veg
-In a month or so, they will each have their own 1000w HPS bulb to sun themselves under(open air hood)
-Room temp: 65-70night/70-80day
-Humidity: 40-50%
-no pests or diseases on these
They have been in Veg for about a month and a half. They had a rough couple weeks to start off so they are only about 1.5ft tall each. Topped them twice so far. They each have 5-8 tops right now.
The big question for this grow IS:
Is drilling 1/4" holes all over the sides of a plastic pot beneficial? How will it affect growth, flowers, and roots, if at all?
One M69 pot has holes, one does not. Same goes for the CJ plants.
Pictures to come soon.
Looking forward to comparisons, thoughts, and helpful hints
