Hey all. Longtime lurker, first time journal writer here, lol. so bear with me please. not my first grow but first real attempt at a journal. having read and drooled over many here, I feel inspired.
let me start by apologizing for my lack of caps.....I started but alas I cannot force me brain to carry through with it lol.
so, on with the show.
the inspiration for doing this really long veg was watching the videos from cali on monster plants.
so the wifey and I discussed trying to fill our tent with one lol.
strain: chunky cheese from cannacopia seeds.
their description:
Chunky Cheese
These seeds were created using the original Cheese clone, the now famous elite cutting discovered in a pack of Skunk #1 seeds by UK grower, and shared via the British cultural underground. She has recently made her way around the world and is now grown from Amsterdam to London to LA. This is the original Cheese clone mother mated with our proven Deep Chunk indica males to improve the yield and stature. The resulting plants have a more upright phenotype and stronger stems than the clone mother, which is needed to support the increased yield in this hybrid generation.
Yield is above average (350-450 g/ sq m)
the beans did not bad for regulars. all germed, but lost half cuz they wanted to play for the other team, ahem.
I've seen lots of mixed reviews on their seeds, even the site I got them from no longer sells them I just found out.
stage of growth: it has been bloomed, whacked up, revegged, and is going strong as popeye.
original bean soak was feb 27 2015.
whacked her up aug 1 2015.
revegged her from then til sept 30 2015. she took about that long in my eyes to become a feasible reveg. ie: good growth showing.
strong veg state: say from oct 1 til now sofar. im tossing up when to flip her as I have some autos I am itching to start, as well as some femmed white widows.
indoors: in a 4x8 el cheapo tent. it wasn't what we thought we were buying at the grow store, but the owner is top notch and made it up to us very well onour next visit. needless to say he has our business now for what we need.
lighting: 1k nanolux cube currently running at 75% was at 50% from reveg day 1 til 2 weeks ago. hit it up to 100% backed it off for not liking the temps last week. love how cool this lil cube runs. zero heat from it.
aircooled: bet yer beans its aircooled!!! 6" cooltube hoodwith a canfan max pulling through a filter from the other side of the light. imagine if you will a plant loving it at 2 inches from a 1k light. ours does!!!
grow medium: soil. just good ol sunshine #4 is all we use no additives to the mix. pour it in and go. for this reveg however we re-used some soil from the pots that were whacked up and some fresh about a half bale or so.
size of pot: well it's a wee lil 45 gallon airpot lol. 36"x36"x10"high.
temp of tent: at 5 am this morning it was at 79.5 under the screen. I think you can see the hygrometer in my pics. I know not an ideal place to take yer temps but it only went in on the weekend due to having been at 100% on the lights it felt really hot but she didn't show me nuthin bout it, so I figgered I best git one.
rh of tent: again, at 5 am it was sitting at 41 humidity.
ph of res: not a hot clue. I know our water runs about 6.5 so I just go with it and no probs to date.
feeding schedule: redneckery. lol.... well normally about once a week. but in the middle of the week when I stick my finger inna dirt an nuttin stix.....she gets a drink that I have premixed an bubblin whenever the lights are on. ex: last night she got about 7 gallons, puked out about a half liter or so.
pests: zero nada zilch well..... just me wifey but shes the most beneficial pest I've ever met.
nutes: hollands secret by future harvest. she has been on week 3 veg nutes since oct 1.
ive had really good luck running by their chart so i'll stick it out for now. tried lucas formula and for me it sucked. idunno the yield just didn't happen. i'll include the nutes chart in me pix.
she has pretty much been getting defoliated minimum once per week. sometimes more cuz she bushes out sooo freakin fast and huge. a one inch fan today may be a 5 inch fan tomorrow. just b4 pics I did a tiny bit of of defoliating, took only about 30-40 fans off the top. bent a couple proud ones under too. 3 days ago we did the big weekly where she looks like she been raped down to a stick almost lol.
and that's it for now cept the greenporn we all like to see. sorry mine aint as high quality stuff as some of yours, but meh someday I will get gooder at er.
ohh yeah p.s. the wifey has taken to callin her daisy btw.
