I thought I start a thread similar to my boy TWS in the Outdoor section, mainly to give growers like me a thread where they post up the occasional picture or 3, without starting an individual grow thread of their own. I just started a new organic grow and would love to participate, but to be honest, after my last and only grow thread, I prefer not feeling obligated to update or go into a lot of detail. These type threads -- we've had one for at least the past two years in the Outdoor portion -- just seem to fit the bill.

Anyway, I thought I'd give it a whirl and see if it catches on or goes to the new thread graveyard. So please, this thread is for anybody and everybody to post up details, advice and pics without having to start your own thread. Fire away and let's see those pics!

I'll start. Here's a few pics of my new indoor, 1200w total HID setup. Growing Jackberry F4, Caramel Candy Kush, Jackberry F4 X Caramel Candy Kush, GSC and a chocolate cross of some kind that a buddy forgot the details of, but begged me to germ, so it's a wild card. I'm doing this first grow a lot different than I will the next, due strictly that I started all of these from regular seed stock and am taking in the process of topping, tying, cloning and waiting for sex to show in most of them. The cross was bred from early showers and are already beginning to preflower at 4-1/2 weeks. My plan this first time is to make sure I get cloneS from each strain, flower whatever females the dice roll gives me and pray I find a keeper or two for next grow. Looking to make that one much better.

I include a pic of my ghetto, homemade bubble cloner, with the pretty p*$$¥ pink inserts for show!

I got that carbon filter hooked up today! I should invest in zip tie stock lol

And here's a Think Different auto flower that I'm putting in my trash can. Its getting acclimated to the multidirectional lights then she'll be transplanted straight into it. Lol she went from 9w of CFL to 330w of fluoros today, she's probably like wtf.

Sneak peak inside my new homemade bubble cloner after 7 days. The cutting in front has best roots, but the rest all have small roots or the telltale bumps. I'm liking this method so far. I guess I could go ahead and plant a cutting with that amount of roots, huh?

I did a little more tying down of the 4 main shoots today. I've supercropped twice already and the new shoots at each node are really kicking.

The single plant is a Jackberry F4 and this particular batch of seeds has kicked out a couple of triploids, with three opposing leaves at the nodes. Well this one is triploid too and I was already chalking it up as a male, since both my others were and I understand most triploids are. Well the preflowers are looking pretty girly to me, lolol. Anyway, if you look closely at the last picture, you can see the 3 opposing fan leaves.

Cool thread. I have a thread I just started in outdoor section and mine all organic as well. I make my own teas and utilize fresh aloe + coconuts on the regular. This was last run with TGA Quantum Kush and Dinafem Critical 2.0 Auto. Currently have some Quantum Kush x Conspiracy Kush, more Dinafem Critical 2.0 Auto, & WOS South African Kwazulu, TGA Space Candy, and TGA Dr Who going

Is this your first time growing the Caramel Candy Kush?

If you've grown it before, what's it like? I've got 6 gals about 4 weeks in to 12/12 right now

I've only grew out two phenos. One grew like a 50-50 hybrid, very fast and big. Covered in trichs and very potent. Has a hashy, peppery taste. The other pheno was the Bubba dom pheno. It was short in height, with massive two liter sized main colas. It had a weird vanilla smell and potent buzz. Both phenos were nearly white they were so covered in trichomes.

Two different crosses show male "officially" today, so I cut both off level with soilless surface and into the worm bin for composting!

Been 20 days since I posted that. I wound up with 4 for sure girls -- 2 Jackberry F4s, 1 Jackberry F4 X Caramel Candy Kush and one Chocolate OG Kush. Today is day 14 of 12/12 and the stretch is about over. I'm absolutely loving this water only! They are as healthy and vigorous as anything I have grown using the Fox Farm Trio, yet all they have received is well water. I'm gonna try out one of those Flowering tea recipes in another thread in a couple of weeks.

BTW, I've never had the roots absolutely busting out of the bottom of my bags like this, but I'd never transplanted with mycorrhiza granules before. Big ass, thick shoots I'm talking, drinking up a couple gallons water each every 2-3 days.
