Iti's Winter Frost With Mars Hydro

Welcome to my journal, feel free to sub up and follow along :welcome: all comments are welcomed :Namaste:

First a bit of where my tent is and what conditions i have to deal with... So my tent is in an area that is not insulated and unheated area, and it gets cold here. Currently i have a 120 cm x 120 x 150 tent which is covered in old comforters and blankets from the thrift store for insulation. Inside is a 6" inline fan and filter, two 12" oscillating fans, mars ll 700w, and a oil filler radiator heater. But i have got a new setup in the works but i won't have it ready for a week or 2. So ill have to start with my current setup, but i am just waiting on it to get freed up :cheesygrinsmiley: in 2 days

What strain is it = Unknown bag seed
Indoor
Soil = Promix HP
Pot Size = Two 7 gallon fabric pots, 4 plastic buckets at 4.4 gallon
Size of light = Mars ll 700watt to start
Temp of Room = anywhere from 18 to 26
Type ferts used - Botanicare CNS17 Grow, Bloom, and Ripe

Second the new girls... :cheer::cheer:
They were started somewhere around October 15. I've had them in a small DIY tent/fixtures that i slapped together so i could get a jump on this grow (sucks having to start from seed each time) They haven't been doing the best... i got no fan inside and they stretched after sprouting, and is seems to be a bit to hot in there for them, but it will have to do for this time. They are coming around thou, and as soon as i can get in tent ill be transplanting and moving them in. First picture is October 17 and you can see how lanky they are, how bout that DIY ? :cheesygrinsmiley: Pic 2 is from today, pic 3 fabric pots just waitin.

Third Some history on the unknown strain. I got this bag seed last Xmas, found 16 seeds in a bag... it was nice smoke and the seed looked nice and matured. So i kept them, i was only just starting out growing for myself and was doing a horrible job with auto's that i purchased at the started, so i figured i try my bag seed. First run i royally screwed up... when i flipped to 12/12's i got the brilliant idea to turn off my grow switch, had it off for over a week before i found that i shouldn't have done that and ended up with a lot of hermies. I kept on growing these till at week 8 of flowering i got spider mites, fought them for a week and then just chopped it down. Now i ended up with and bunch of feminized seeds, but i know they will have the hermied trait carried down with them. So i Started up again after a good cleaning, using the same seeds i got at xmas. 2 out of 8 hermied, 1 was only one nut sack, and the other had a bunch.... i just kept a good eye and picked anything that looks like a balls and these will be chopped down tomorrow night i couldn't see any signs of seeds poking out but i guess i see if any pollinated this time.

I would really like to find out what strain this is, any help would be greatly appreciated.

and Lastly would be my new setup. Ill be moving into a new tent 120 cm x 120 x 180, with an mars pro ll epistar 320, i can't wait, gonna be exciting to have some head room :cheesygrinsmiley: should be setup within a couple of weeks.

Everyone was felt pretty light, i got out the cns17 grow and had a look at the feeding schedule. It recommends 7ml/gallon for seedling stage, so i mixed up 8ml in 2 liters of water and ph'd to 6.5. I ph my tap water with vinegar, one ml per liter. There isnt anything about what strength per liter, so I just guess 2ml per liter. The girls are into week 2 so should be fine.

Everyone got about 250ml each before I got some run off.

Ill be updating when something is going on with the girls or I'm doing something for them. I want to get a detailed journal, something that I can refence to later on. I also want to start making my only soil amenities but that will be next year before I start, so this journal will be like the controlled to compare to.

Time for an update...

So finally it's time to transplant. I started by watering the pots first, of course I watered too much and all the run off made a mess, but I know what each pot will hold when watering.
