So, just started posting yesterday. Didnt think I'd make a journal till next run but I figured what the hell. So to get you all up to speed here goes.

STRAINS
Pineapple chunk
Buddha Haze
CBD Critical Mass

SETUP
3x3 Melon Farm tent
2000w Aglex 4 COB 400ish true watts
4" vivosun exhaust fan and filter
7gal fabric pots filled with 6gals of Pro-Mix
Gaia Green all purpose 444 and bloom 284. Bat Guano and wholesome organic molasses.
I started by mixing 4 tablespoons per gal of Pro-Mix of the 4-4-4. Filled four solo cups with drain holes. Soaked seeds in water over night until they went to the bottom of their cups. I then planted the seeds right into the solo cups.

Couple days later I had this. The pineapple chunk buddha haze and cbd critical mass sprouted and took off. Sadly the blueberry never made it out of the Pro-Mix. The seedlings are under a smaller LED light drawing about 250w true in a propagater with a heat pad prepared the 7gal pots with 6gals each of the Pro-Mix...... mix?

14 days later I transplanted to the bigger pots. Just watered with tap water ph'd to 6.5. So at this point the plants are still under the 250w light because the aglex and tent have not arrived. I had the smaller light and fan because I had another tent that was bigger. Moved to a bigger house but smaller grow space. So I ordered a 3x3 that would fit right in a closet really nicely. Plus the light I had was way way under powered for the tent anyways ( noob ) only grew in it once. The bubblegum kush did get me high for awhile but was Larfy small buds. Anyways 4 days after up sizing the light arrived.

Now I have along stretch where I didnt take photos. There was a mistake when shipping the tent so I had to get my money back and I just ordered some place else. Anyways I top dressed a month in with 2 tbsp of 444 for every gal and I top dressed day before flipping with 50/50 444 and 284 plus 3 tbsp of bat guano. Watered a few times with molasses for the microbes. started flowering in the closet JAN 1st. Eventually my tent came.

And we are all caught up. 26 days in flower. Oh I LST these girls from small to now. Hope you enjoyed and I'll update every week till dried for jars.
 
Great start ! Need to put that in your signature!
lm in I also have 5 bags of hp promix .
Thanks for the advice. I'll try to figure it out. Pro mix is the only thing I've grew in. One other time indoor and once outdoor. It's the easiest thing to get around.
 
Really great looking plant,lot of buds on her . :)
Thanks bud. LST is the key I'm thinking. Defolianted heavy three times and kept the slow growth to a minimum aswell. This is defiently turning in to my best grow yet! 3rd times a charm I guess ;)
 
So, I work an evening shift once a week. Not having to work till 1pm gives me lots of alone time to deal with garden chores. Today marks day 29 since flipping to 12/12 and also 29 days since the last top dressing. So today I cleaned up the closet and pulled the ladys out of the tent to get right in there.

Took a few photos to show the space I have for all my growing.

It's actually a great little space to grow in.

On to the good stuff now. I'll be doing my final top dress with 8 tbsp of 284, 1 tbsp of 444 and 3 tbsp of bat guano.

Next up is the pineapple chunk. This thing has been one to learn with. It did not take everything I threw it's way. Deficiencies during veg almost threw out. Never did figure out what really was going on. I'm leaning towards cal-mag but I never changed anything I did. Came out of it when I topped dressed for flower and it came out of it. Now its growing great.

And here is the buddha haze. This thing is a machine. It showed the same deficiency as the chunk at first but took off and never looked back after first top dress in veg. She smells so so great. Looking forward to this one for sure.
 
Hey all. How often would you like updates? Just curious, I dont want to post to much or to little. Also anyone compare topping to lst? If so which one do you like better from your findings?
 
Day 32 of flower. 3 days since top dressed and couldn't be happier. By far my best grow thus far. Can not thank @420magazine ( includes all of you) , Mr. Canucks grow and pigeons420 enough. Learned so much from reading and watching those two on youtube. I'll have some nice, potent, clean and the kicker, relatively cheap meds. I've come a long ways and could not be more grateful.

Day 37 of flower. The girls are going strong. Other than. Removing a few leaves blocking buds sites I've pretty much just been watering with water and molasses ph'd to 6.5. since flower it's been a pretty easy going grow. Starting to think about the next one now.

Hey everyone. We've reached day 41 of flower. I'm getting very excited for harvest. Pretty much down to an ounce of bud from the summer grow and did a run with the larf I had left from that grow as well so I need to fill some jars. The trichromes are amostly cloudy with some clear next to zero amber. So it's getting close :yummy: here are a few photos from just minutes ago.

So, an unfortunate update. My Buddha haze is hermied. It's been that way for a couple weeks just kept telling myself it was something else but I got some nanners and some seeds starting to show. Oh well. The trichromes show cloudy with some amber anyways so lights are off and Saturday after work they'll get the chop. I'll take some pics right before chop.
