I'm THsea, a legal medical cannabis patient of the Hawaiian Islands. This is not my first rodeo, but its my second grow journal/ thread. If you followed my last grow... It wasn't all that successful! But a lot of learning happened for this here farmer, worth its weight in buds! This time I'll be fixin' to get over an ounce per plant... So lets get to how I'mma do that.
What strain is it? Six plants we will be focusing on...
Blue Cheese, from Barney's Farm
Cheese, from Big Buddha Seeds
Cheese, from Dinafem
Confidential Cheese (aka LA Cheese), from Reserva Privada
Exodus Cheese (x2!!!), from Green House Seeds
Is it Indica, Sativa or Hybrid? What percentages? Well.. They are all hybrids... Exodus being the parent "Cheese", its made from Skunk #1 which is a Afghan x Mexican x Colombian... The regular named "Cheese" plants are the Exodus crossed with Afghans... So is the Confidential, but the Afghan it was bred with was LA Confidential. The Blue Cheese is the Big Buddha's "Cheese" crossed with a DJ Short Blueberry.
Is it in Veg or Flower stage? All of them just cracked open and are in the tent vegging!
in Veg... For how long? Well... Until they get to a certain size. I'll be doing FIM's twice on the plants, moving them into their flowering pots... Then they will go out. I'm hoping they will all be flowering before the new year.
in Flower stage... For how long? Most of these plants are your average 50-70 day-ish sort of deal. Much quicker than our next grow (if I don't change the order of my plans)... If you want to know what I look for to harvest, well... I look for amber to start, but not for it to be the majority. I try to take the flower into account also, not just the trichomes.
Indoor or outdoor? ... Can't I have a little of both?
Soil or Hydro? Y'all know me... I'm just a kid playin' in dirt!
If soil... what is in your mix? Using Black Gold Organic...
If soil... What size pot? We're vegging in one gallon Smart Pots.. They will be moving into 5 gallon Smart Pots to flower.
Size of light? Using a 90 watt UFO, maybe 2x of 2x splitter for CLF's (13watt)... And 'da sun.
Is it aircooled? Sometimes I turn the fan on the move the air. It stays pretty cool though naturally.
Temp of Room/cab? I don't know, probably in the low to mid 80's most of the time
RH of Room/cab? Also fine, stays around 50-60%.
PH of media or res? I have faith in my soil
Any Pests ? Nope, got rid of them before I started these 'gals! (I think I had root aphids from a bad bag of soil called Menehune Magic).
How often are you watering? I water every other day, if they need it ( thats how it normally is)...
Type and strength of ferts used? Well... After their first week I'll be adding Osmocote +... That will be my main nutrient added to the soil... Beyond that... I have been told my tap water (because of where I live, which is near the pump station) has so low PPM that I could run hydroponics without filtering.. And it should have enough calcium that I shouldnt have to supplement...
With my watering's I'll be using tap water from now on, two tablespoons/gallon of unsulphured Molasses,and one tablespoon/gallon Kelp Extract... Every other watering a drop of SuperThrive... And hopefully that will be it! I'll have both Epsom Salts and I'll be getting a Cal+Mag product (just in case the tap-calcium isn't enough!)...
There will be no cuttings this grow... If you see the flowering cutting that I took and am trying to reveg of my SSSDH plant...Thats what that is. Its not a cheese plant .
Still have to pot the Blue Cheese and the second Exodus Cheese. If I cannot get the pictures up tonight, I'll get them up after I work tomorrow... Thanks for visiting! Feel free to ask questions. Peace!
