Hey everyone! I have been reading tons of things on this site for a few weeks now and have really enjoyed the community as a whole, along with the excellent advice the members here provide to new members. It has inspired me to make my own journal. This will be my second actual grow, the first one was a total mess (1k HPS in my tent, temps way too high, then dried too fast and ruined the cure lol). I've learned a lot and will be applying it to this grow. I have a good feeling about everything this time around, let's see how it goes!
First things first my stats:
What strain is it? Tangerine Dream x3, Purple Maroc x1, Bubblegummer x1 and a random bagseed.
Is it in Veg or Flower stage? Veg.
If in Veg... For how long? about 1 1/2 weeks.
Soil or Hydro? Soil.
If soil... what is in your mix? I'm using Sta-Green flower and vegetable mix it has a small amount of ferts in it. I couldn't find anything locally with none and this was the lowest. (0.05/0.04/0.03)
If soil... What size pot? 3gal pots.
Size of light? 600w MH/HPS Dimmable Ballast, MH bulb currently in use.
Is it aircooled? 6in Cooltube
Temp of Room/cab? I can't find my old thermometer but I would estimate about 70ish.
Any Pests ? Nope.
How often are you watering? Only when soil is dry.
Type and strength of ferts used? Nothing but the soil atm. I have a Technaflora Recipe for Success Kit for later.
Now for pics:
this is my tent, its a 2'x4'x5'.
Another angle.
I have recently moved the light down closer to the plants since it runs very cool with the small fan inside and the 6in exhaust fan. You can feel almost no heat a few inches under the light, so it should be ok.
Finally pics of my plants:
Tangerine Dream #1.
Tangerine Dream #2 The ends got wet during a watering and burned a bit, noob mistake.
Tangerine Dream #3.
Purple Maroc. This plant has just been a beast since it popped soil lol.
My poor Bubblegummer. I have no idea what happened to it. I did nothing but water it just like the rest. It seems to be trying to make a comeback but its root system is tiny compared to the others.
And last is my bag seed. This grow was supposed to be an all bag seed experiment but out of the 8 I tried to germ only this one popped then got lightburned. I'm not stressing it though for all I know its a male.
I just recently took them all from their starter pots and replanted into the 3gal containers with the new soil. Hopefully the little nutes in it will help them get stronger and/or recover. I haven't given up on the Bubblegummer. I know it will pull through, its starting new leaves and still has color so we'll see. Any and all advice is appreciated. I plan on updating this as much as possible and I look forward to your comments.
