Okay folks. Here's my third grow. Other two are in the works. Both in flower. Seeing as I can only have 6 plants at a time, looks like I will be running 3 different strains (2 ea) at a time. I have already learned a lot even though I have not brought anything to harvest yet. I have something special in mind for these ladies. Here's the stats:
Genetics: Royal Queen Special Kush #1 Feminized
Lighting: Starting seedlings under one 23w Chinese LED panel at 18/6 just to start, but will switch to 12/12 very soon. After that, moving to flower cab with 4x 42w 2,700k CFLs, 5x 40w 2,700k CFLs, and 2x 45w 6,500k CFLs. That will make for about 450w mixed spectrum lighting. Homemade reflectors out of 6" duct.
CAB:Homemade 3'x3' with lined 2" rigid foam insulation walls and white foam board floor.
Environment: all those CFLs run hot. I have a fan helping cirrculate air. Other than that, its in Gods hands.
Temps: Running around 80 degF.
Humidity: Running around 25-30%
Pots: Black 5 gallon fabric pots with coco/pearlite mix.
Nutes: Advanced Nutrients Sensi pH Perfect Coco Base. Foliar with Jumpstart, Armor Si Silica, Biocozyme, and a little fish and kelp as needed.
Goal For This Grow: I want to do some LST using the manifold technique. Nothing major. I'll be running two plants in a 3x3 space, so they cant get too big. I want to keep them low but with many bud sites. Hoping for a qp of dense buds From each plant going right into 12/12 after the initial manifold is trained and set.
Also, I will try to clone these for the first time. I am then going to grow the clones in a seperate area and use this spray to get them to produce pollen, thus producing all female pollen, and thus producing feminized seeds. Should be very cool if it works. If so, I can create my own feminized seeds.
Well, I think that's it for now. Two plants, 12/12 from almost seed, manifold in Coco with CFLs. Should be cool. Hope you'll hang out with me for a bit.
