THE FUN PART

VK1:
In the soil,. No damaging the seed, or risking dilemma's caused by other Germination Techniques. Plants have been doing it for all of time. Pairing with a specialized team of Microbial Life.

Plants wouldn't have been able to do it without the universe that most people forget about, that's right under our feet. Microbes (slang for microscopic organism) are everywhere, even in space. They shaped everything you see now out of star dust.

IMO, botanist/microbiologist understanding of the uptake of nitrogen, Proves Organic Soil grows can get better yields and potency than chemical fertilizers.

Day 5:

Because There are many types of nitrogen, the effects of what nitrogen you give your plant can improve everything.. The best taste. The most healthy vigor.

Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

Thanks Papa, Ill have more pics up later =p

Little update.
I'm at day 10 these pics are to day 7, so a little behind, but that means i can select premium photos for everyone else to enjoy.

Working on flower room... Heat issues =/
Redesign on Ducting, new fans, and forced air take quiet a bit.. I may need help later.

But otherwise the whole gardens green!

Enjoy the pictures! more to come

Tizz thanks for stopping by and the kind words. How are the colas?
I'm really excited for vanilla kush, out of the 5 i will be chosing a mom as well. I would love to get any advice on chosing the best pheno characteristics.:grinjoint: They are starting to really produce very dense leaves.
Glad to have someone who's grown VK around :welcome:



Loving the amount of pictures!! definitely going to follow this one!
:welcome: Thanks Mesrone!
I was just looking through your Journal as well, :bravo:

:rollit:Well Posting todays pics in like 5 minutes

You've got 6 day old tris!

JK, I know they're not yet, but its fun to dream. Someday little gals, someday...

I love the detail from all the pics. They really are fun to just stare at.

:nicethread::bravo::peace:
 
Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

Subscribed man. Looking good. I also have a pack of 5 vanilla kush but ill fire mine up hopefully july 1st.
Welcome to the Ride Sky! That'll be about when I chose my Mother
Your gonna love them, they are just such beautiful seedlings; I'm hoping for very good medicinal smoke as well.
They Germed very quickly in the FFLW, I do remove some perlite from the top and add some of the FFLW coco chunks for more aerate weight and solid base.
Hope to see you around!

hey maybe i am reading over it by mistake, but i cant find it if its here. What kind of camera are you using.
Thanks for noticing, I hadn't even thought of Mentioning that! :idea:
(if you didn't already notice)
I love photography. I don't have a proffessional camera, But it's worked and captured wonders all over the world.
Its a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi.
I love it. If I wrote a review, I'd quote the review on the Cannon Site
"You'd Like it."
Deffinately worth the couple months saving :)
But like in the last pictures compared to the first, its the user of the camera not the camera itself.
What are you using? :peace:

I agree, I find it hard to get out from under the VHO, especially while taking pictures.
My retina suffers, but my Kush babies glitter :grinjoint:

Thanks all, I am going to post some Hash Berry pictures.
I already regret the Thread Title name, its limiting haha!
But like I said, This is going to surprise people. And me frankly. I am very new, and just getting the flow of veg.

I'm Glad I'm surrounded by passionate people that know from experience.

There's only so much a book, or a year of prep on forums, can do. (and a long long time of gardening everything else)

Reassuring people; fellow new growers and OG's alike, Thank you!

I will share the gift life provided me.:yahoo:
:welcome::peace:
 
Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

UPDATE
As promised...Mandala's HashBerry Just 3 of them out of 9, i had 9/9 germ rate.

Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

How close can the Seedlings get to the T5 VHO, in terms of UV rays if temps not an issue?
 
Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

Inches. 2-3" when cruising in early veg. At the beginning I go a little higher - 4-5". If you see any stretch go lower.

They pretty much have to be touching a bulb to burn.

:peace:
 
Re: Lets Emulate! 5 Vanilla Kush Fem.Seed VHO/MH/HPS Organic Soil Adventure! 50pic1st

You won't be disappointed =D
I would love to see the progress you should let me know if you have some pics.
Its suppose to be amazing smoke, I won't try it until i've cured this stuff.

Thanks Papa,
Is that with a VHO though?
I tried like 8" with clones, and almost all of em fried, turning yellow haha.

I've had it about a foot over seedlings out of fear haha and they've been growing dense so far (I think)
Maybe slight stretch on HB's

Though now I have got it a little closer and they love it:thanks:


I need to look up some pheno characteristics. Thats the good thing about taking alot of pics, I can compare later.

I would love to get them closer though:)
That'd be real, real nice.
Thanks again, MMJ

will do got the balls washed up and tees and elbows on the bucket my r.o is close to filling at 30gal. right now. not sure how much water i should add to the res. when i start it up but i dont wanna fill it to 55 gal. since i doubt they are gonna drink up that much water&nutes before res. change for the 12 pots.

trying to figure out how long to cut the lines in between the tees and elbows on the buckets dont say on the instruction or maybe im just to blown to comprehend atm.

dont wanna run out of tubing if i over cut the lengths.
