SNID AND CHEDS EXCELLENT ADVENTURE--AUTO ARMAGEDDON
a story of two friends who came together,
to grow inside and escape the weather.
within these walls their forests grew, so many colours...
green, orange, purple, blue.
from in the soil, roots blossomed then bloomed
for snid and ched, to be consumed.

Welcome friends, old and new, to what is the first installment of a new collaborative journey most triumphant. CHED here, just want to give the family a little background of whats going on. Late in 2016 Stinky Snid threw the idea out for this team effort and I thought it was a great idea. Not only did it allow us to expand Stinky Snids already excellent setup and knock it up a notch but it also will allow me to continue to learn new techniques first hand from a master. It has been just over a month yet and so much has happened. For all of you that have been following Snid I'm sure you have seen the recent upgrades but for those who haven't here are some pictures.
NEW TENT AND LIGHT AND RANGE FAN!

Now this sucker comes with one hell of a story. Snid and I, spent two days rigging this thing up. There were some heat issues and when the new tent arrived it we started working on the new airflow set up to ensure proper air circulation and temperature/humidity. The idea was to reconfigure the airflow chain and add in a stove range fan to help. We spent the afternoon rigging it up so that the fan and everything else was in its place. Unfortunately the fan created more heat and only added to the problem. Luckily for myself and the ladies we had Stinky Snid (who, by the way, can be handier than Tim the tool man Taylor when the right moment strikes) and a second range fan was hanging around. The first attempt the range fan was in the photo tent, the second attempt the second range fan wouldn't fit in the photo tent so we put in the auto tent and the results were exactly what we wanted. Temperature and humidity holding daily. The only mishap that occurred during this setup is a fan fell and damaged one of Snids photos. She is however coming back with a vengeance and we've been talking about getting her some brass for those knuckles.4x4tent

Nutes- General Organics Go Box
To start I am using up the remainder of my go box before changing to others. I have had a great experience with the general organics go box and would recommend it to anyone starting out. Once they are empty, I will be learning to use the masters touch. I have never used non ph perfect nutrients and learning to identify and correct abundance and deficiencies will be a challenge. Stinky Snid has a great arsenal of nutes to grow some monsters and as previously mentioned I am eager to learn.As this is a collaborative effort, we will be submitting updates from each of our babies separately which in turn will provide our family with plenty of reading material not to mention conversation material. This is a much over due start for the journal so I'm going to show you ladies and gentlemen the start of my two ladies. Two candy cane from crop king seeds.
NICOLE- prouted June 7
Transplant day.
Notes:Not too bad a transfer. she looked happy and healthy afterwards.
On June 20th she was ready to be topped.
A quick peep in the tent on the 21st to see how shes doing.
Day 18: Training begins.
day 27: More training
day 33:
Notes: More training and most likely is the last day. The main stems have exceeded the pot and the interior growth is reaching the top of the canopy. If all goes well the stretch will continue and I will have one of my best trained plants as of yet.
AERYN- sprouted June 14
une 20th before and after transplant
Notes: When I transplanted Aeryn, I tried to take her out of the dixie cup the soil crumbled quite a bit and was more difficult than Nicole but no harm done. she is very happy.
July 3rd
Notes: Aeryn started her first round of pony tailing. i did not do this with nicole and is a little experiment for my own amusement. had her up for 5 hrs for 4 days.
Day 2
Day 3
Day 4
on July 7th she started her training
Day 26:
Notes: Aeryn's training is going very well. Lots of under growth thanks to the pony tailing and is proving to be a little troublesome training all the lower growth. None the less, I am having fun training her to hopefully reach the edge of the pot like her sister.
The Ladies
Its great to be back to contribute to the family again. I've been off for far too long and am eager to start catching up on many journals. thanks for stopping by for a look into our garden friends. stick around and bear witness to the Armageddon.
Cheers everyone,
Smoke green and prosper!
