Hey 420magazine, for the very few of you who have seen my posts on the forum before, you know that I have just recently returned to my home state of Colorado and have been super eager to start growing... and today I have started down that exciting path!!
So with great pleasure I welcome all of you beautiful people to my first grow journal!!

-Hybrid, extremely Indica heavy.
-Currently Vegging;
--ALIEN DAWG--
-Hybrid, extremely Indica heavy.
-Currently Vegging;
--BERRY GARCIA--
-Hybrid, extremely Indica heavy.
-Purchasing on November 10, 2014;
--GENERAL INFO--
-Indoor.
-Soil;
-Initially bought in RockWool.
-In my DIY hood I have;
-Temperatures / Humidities are currently unknown, buying Thermometer / Hygrometer this week.
-PH ain't no thang.
-Karma Clones are guaranteed pest and mold free, so I hope I don't have any.
-Currently watering when top of soil is dry, stop when it begins to drip into drip tray.
-Fertilizers are to be determined at this point in time.
-Both clones were topped immediately upon my return home, and then put straight under lights.
Here is a photo taken of the whole set up from outside of the door.
This is the light bulb socket I converted into an outlet, and my light timer which my lights are plugged into.
Here is a close up of both of the ladies, Warlock on the left Alien Dawg (misprint on the cup). I built that entire hood from scratch and wired all of the bulbs up myself. 10 bulbs and 16,100 lumens comin' out of that thing, it heats the closet to what seems like the perfect temperature (we will see once I invest in a Thermometer) and is extremely easy to adjust.
Here is a close up of the Warlock, topped and put under light about 30 minutes before this was taken.
And here is a picture of the Alien Dawg, also topped and put under light 30 minutes before this picture was taken. In the back you can see a small Box Fan that I am currently running until the babies are ready to be upgraded to my larger Osculating Fan.
Thats all I have for now, Berry Garcia coming soon! I will try and be good about updates, however between work, school and my girlfriend... posts might be sporadic. Feel free to ask any questions or give me ANY and ALL advice, this is my first grow and I am feeling extremely confident as I have down A LOT of research (haha), however I know there is ALWAYS room for improvement.
Also, the soil mixture I am using surprisingly (to me at least) covered about all of the amendments that I had planned on adding to it. I was planning on just letting the dry nutrients do their thing for this grow, however now I am now contemplating using liquid nutrients. I would like some input on this topic, and I would definitely be open to some nutrient combinations to help my ladies grow big and strong.
Anyways, I hope you all enjoy reading/following this journal as much as I am going to enjoy keeping it.
Enjoy!
