Hello good people of Overgrow!
Didn’t properly introduce myself yet. First lurked a bit then quitely posted some casual stuff, got involved in some trading and give aways and here I am with my first diary.
I’m a Dutch guy 50 years old, been growing since the late '80, first bag seeds, then clones, seeds from friends, and today also ofcourse modern genetics, mostly hybrids, purchased, traded or chucked myself.
My goal in cannabis growing is finding dank, terpy, relaxed strains which will get ripe outdoors from late august to max the end of September. After September risks are too high to loose the harvests here at 51 degrees N. Sometimes weather is good, sometimes it sucks. Last year I had to harvest early and lost most of my harvest to budrot. I grew Rare Dankness ‘the Ox’, a Northern lights, ACE seeds CBD#1 x Erdpurt and some of Urban Legends autoflowers outside.
The previous years I grew some gear from Hybrids from Hell. They are specialized in early flowering outdoor strains for northern latitudes. They harvested good but I wasn’t too happy with the raciness and paranoid effect it had on me. Too strong for me I guess.
So this year I’m trying some new stuff. Went to Spannabis last week and got me some seeds.
Selected two early flowering strains: Honey cream from Royal Queen Seeds and NL x Big bud from World of seeds. They should be ready somewhere in September. We’ll see about that. I’m going to get them out at soon as possible to my little greenhouse.
I will make clones early may and hopefully have like 50 ready by June to give a way to family and friends.
So this will be my casual documentation thread of what comes out of this. Here we go:
I’m also doing some indoor stuff which will be shown here sometimes too. Currently I have flowering for 3 days now Romulan genetics ‘Romulan BX1’ two phenos and an ACE CBD#1 x Erdpurt:
It’s a 2 x 4 tent with a 320 watt lm301h leds grow bars from Kingbrite, active carbon filter, tube heater. Growing in ammended soil, adding liquid fetilizers.
Then I have a small tent for some moms, dads and clones using the bonsai technique which I gratefully learned here!
