Southern OR Rec Grow: 25 Plants

[circaura]

Hey thanks for checking out my grow! Should be a pretty fun one. First big scale outdoor grow, 65 plants total, but this grow journal will be for 25. I'll be handling 25, the other growers here will be handling the other 40. You'll occasionally see the other garden, but this will be focusing on the plants I'm managing.

Strains:
12 UK Cheese
13 Bubba Kush
Just started the clones last night in a hydro setup using super thrive, and clonex. 100% success rate with this last year for 16.

We will be vegging these plants inside until June under 1000 watt MH lights, in fox farms soil.
Acclimating them to the sun in early June in our greenhouse, alongside 40 more plants. (tangerine dream, and compassion)
This grow journal will only be for the UK and Bubba.
When they're one with the sun, some will be going into 150 gallon pots, some will be going into 300 gallon pots, and then some will be going into wood framed containers, which are about 500 gallons give or take.
We're using amended fox farms soil from last year, along with the soil from a local company here. As for nutrients, we're going to be making a tea from worm castings, and seafood.
I'm going to be updating this journal two or three times a month until the girls are getting acclimated outside, then when it's getting more exciting, i'll be posting more for you guys.

I'm not an expert at this, so feedback is welcome and encouraged.

Here are the clones as of this morning.

Front row! We plan to head out to Oregon later this year or next year so this will be fun to watch. Good luck!

Southern OR rec grow. 25 plants

I'm in! I grew up in Southern Oregon. I have tons of friends in the GP/Medford area getting involved in things like this. I've made my way North but it's always fun to visit home and see what all is going on down there. Now I can do it via a journal! Make Southern Oregon proud and I'll be here watching!

It's the place to be! Born and raised in this beautiful state, and I doubt I will ever leave. Thanks for the sub!

Oh nice, we're just north of grants pass a little ways in south county/umpqua valley.
Thanks for the sub!

So we did 1/4 teaspoon of super thrive, and the same amount of clonex into the water. We'll add more super thrive when the roots start.

 

[circaura]

Well, our clones are starting to grow their roots after 9 days in the cloner. We will probably add some super thrive tomorrow, and then let them relax in the hydro spa for another day. These will all go into solo cups next, then they're going under a 400w MH for a while.

 

[circaura]

We got some of the clones transplanted today. Not all of their roots are developed enough to transplant yet, so we're going to finish the rest in a few days. Whatever isn't rooting is going to be slain.

 

[circaura]

Most of them are rooted, but the ones that aren't are still in the cloner.

This one got the worst of the transplant. The ones that have developed the biggest root system, are the ones that got stressed the most. A few days with plenty of water and light, and they should come back to normal soon.

This one got pretty stressed too.

The last one that got shocked. 3 out of 13 isn't tooooooo bad. They should all be fine in a few days though.

I heard adding some sugar, or molasses to water can help to counter the root shock. Anyone tried it?

 

[circaura]

The twisted up clones bounced right back today. They all look healthy.
On top of that, the other 12 in the cloner are rooting now too. We'll transplant them sometime over the weekend.

Wanted to add that this Bubba has been a perpetual strain for the last 20 years in my family. It's the original Bubba. I've never grown it personally, but the people mentoring me on this grow have been growing it the entire time. Pretty cool little tidbit of info for anyone who cares/was curious.

 

[circaura]

Raised the light a bit. Some of the clones were turning really bright green at the top. Figured it would be better safe than sorry.

No problems to mention. The ones that were transplanted first are exploding already. They're getting a bit of superthrive and clonex in their water tomorrow. One or two more weeks, then it's onto fox farms.

 

[circaura]

Good growth. Some of the uk cheese are stretching pretty fiercely. Pretty normal for that strain though. The bubba are maintaining in height, but are showing better node production. Not much to report really. They're going in 1 gallon pots soon.

 

[circaura]

not much to report. Just posting so my journal doesn't get flagged as abandoned

 

[circaura]

Transplant day. These one time use gallon bags were like 5$ for 25.

Not sure whats up with this one. gave her some superthrive on the transplant, so we'll see if she snaps out of it.

 

[circaura]

1ml of superthrive and 5ml of clonex per gal for all of them.

 

[circaura]

Watered today with 1ml clonex, a few drops of superthrive, and 1ml of liquid karma. They're doing pretty good. Switched the light to a 400w MH.

 

[circaura]

Moved these girls into a larger space today, and fed them. !tsp clonex, and 2 tsp, grow big per gal. They're under 1000 watts now.

Business partner had a melt down. All of my plants are dead, she's in jail. Long story short, Rec grow isn't happenin This journal can get moved.

 

[Nismo12]

We will be your business partner! Lol. Sucks that this happened bro. Was looking forward to seeing how the pros do it. My condolences.
