Hi all,
Navy vet in the Pacific Northwest here. New-ish grower. Thanks all for the awesome welcome. I hope I’m adding this first grow diary right.
I only bought my first seeds a few months ago, from BF. I bought Cheese, Acapulco Gold, Laughing Buddha and Amnesia Lemon. Before that, I tried Bruce Banner clone (harvested too early) and Gary Payton clone (spider mites). I’ve gotten maybe 100G total of usable weed since 2022. Cheese is my third grow.
Popped seeds on Dec. 11. – EXPECTED HARVEST: VERY EARLY APRIL 2024
Two weeks in a 1 gallon fabric, then transferred to 5 gallon fabric (one up-pot only).
FIMmd on Jan. 12, light trimming/tucking since then.
My first experience with REALLY straight, strong branching plant and such short internodes.
Soil/vermiculite/sand (60/30/10) in fabric.
Filtered water, light on nutrients (nitrogen, CalMag, and soon adding Flower Fuel’s Bloom Booster for flowering this cycle).
Using 1000W MH for veg, 1000W HPS for flower, in 4x5 Vivosun (never used HID before).
In market to swap to higher-end LEDs.
I’m in awe of some of your grow set-ups. I tend toward OCD and I keep things stupid-simple, especially when I’m just learning. Which I VERY much still am.
