Strain information:
Name: Jack Herer
Breeder: Kera seeds
Parents: Haze X Northern Light X Skunk
Type: 50% Sativa, 50% Indica
Taste: Haze / Spicy / Citrus
Effect: Energetic Headbuzz
Flowering: 8 Weeks
Growroom setup:
Space: 60x60cm (2x2ft) SecretJardin DarkStreet DS60
Lamp: 200w Secret Jardin HPLED200
Extraction fan: Ruck EM125
Circulation fan: noname, cheapest model with clip, mounted below canopy.
Reservoir: 15L (4gal) bucket filled to ~12L
Airpump: Prosilent a200
Airstone: generic circular airstone
Fertilizer information:
Brand: Terra Aquatiqa (T.A.) aka General Hydroponics
Line: Tri-part + Final part (+ Flashclean)
Regimen: Keep EC at lower bound recommended level on bottle, flush and change nutes on phase change (1st roots, growing, pre-flower, flower, ripen, flush) Keep water level topped off daily and PH adjust as required, add nutes based on EC and by judging how much water was added over last few days (roughly, by memory) deviding by half and adding to topped off reservoir as per regular instructions.
Introduction:
Hey all, back from long time no see. Somewhere on here there are a few abandoned and or completed growjournals that show how I started, and also why I stopped posting journals I since learned a lot and was able to invest a bit, and decided it's time I started giving back with what I learned. I also just want to share my adventures as they have become interesting I'd say.
The Jack Herer that will be featured in this journal, has been rooted for about a month (from clone) and been growing for about 3 weeks in this tent. It has been flipped to 12/12 about a week ago, and should start showing signs of that in a few days. As soon as that happens I will reset the nutrient balance by using Flashclean and give her a new bath with pre-flower mix.
Ph will we measured and adjusted to 5.8 daily, EC will be kept at or below the low-end of the bottle recommendation for the current grow phase, as I am not growing in a CO2 enriched environment, and as with most things, less is more.
The reservoir is cleaned when I do a water change, using some bleach. Before I switch her to flowering, I will take a few clones and a new journal will spawn featuring the same plant in nearly the same conditions: Variables are: 200W LED (Secret Jardin HPLED 200), 250W HPS (Lumatek), 150W LED (Mars Hydro TS1000).
Other than that, not much care is given, I dont play music for them, I dont brew special teas, I dont treat them as anything but their nickname, a weed. They seem to like a bit of abuse.
Defoliation mainly centres around keeping the bud sites free from cover, but once trichomes are forming in large enough numbers; those leafs I will tuck, pluck shorter, but in general I leave them on the plant, as trichomes are trichomes
For now, getting ready to bloom:
