Well… another year, another grow I guess 
I had a lot of fun documenting last year’s grow here on 420MAG, so for this season I’ll start a real Journal documenting my every move again for you guys.
All winter long I wasn’t sure if I would do another grow this summer. Hiking up to my spots high up in the mountains every week to take care of the ladies took a lot of effort last year. A bit too much! Summer 2013 was far from great and I experienced all kinds of problems with plants falling over, early snowfall and deer eating half my crop. So I didn’t know if I wanted to put in the effort again. But Springtime in the Alps has washed away those negative feelings like snow in the sun and I’m ready to start growing again like I do every summer.
Anywayz, this year I’m going to try a different approach (again).
I’m going to grow them into decent plants in a greenhouse on my balcony and just before they start stinking up the place I’m going to find a spot in the woods at a much lower altitude than the previous years and plant them there. I will try to flower one or two on my balcony depending on the smell. But if the stench is too pungent, they will quickly join the others in the woods.
I will also grow them in much smaller pots than last season. In the previous years I gave them 35 liters of soil each to grow in. But that made them way too tall and instable. You have to keep mountain storms in mind here. This year I will grow them in 11 liter pots. And I will (try to) keep them short and bushy. I’m going to ‘top’ them several times to make sure of that. Planting them later gives me much more control over the young plants. I can feed them exactly how I want to and can make sure that they don’t stretch too much.
Okay, done with the boring intro stuff, onto the strains etc….
I had planned on only growing the 6 clones that I’ve ordered, but the Grow Shop where I ordered my Fertilizers, soil and other stuff was so nice to add 2 samples of Dinafem Seeds to my package.
