Hello RIU, I have recieved my seeds from discreet seeds today. I have 1xGreen House-Jack herer, 1x Fast and vast autoflower. 1x World of seeds amnesia autoflower. I also have a OG kush male sitting under a few flourecent lights I plan on breeding with my Jack herer. I plan on starting the germination process tomorrow on the seeds, hopefully I get a 100% rate. Doubtful but one can hope.
I have a oracle hood with cooltube, also a oracle 400w electronic ballast. My grow medium will be fox farms ocean forest. I have had no issues with this soil, although many have. I like it because it feeds my plant throughout the vegetation period I am aiming for on the Jack (3-4) weeks. The soil also has worm castings which are delightfully full of microbes. I will be experimenting with a newer product called recharge. The product is supposed to boost the microbe activities in your soil, producing a better growing and healthier plant.
The nutrient line I am using is general hydroponics 3 part, grow, micro,bloom. Very simple and effective if you use sparingly and work up to a larger dose. I also flush the medium when using this line to prevent a salt buldup. The pots I am using are 2 gallon geo pots. The pots are pretty much smart pots. The reason for using these is that they allow air to flow around the root zone. I have read that this allows the plant to grow larger in a smaller pot without causing the plant to become rootbound. And using a smaller 2 gallon pot I have more space for more plants under my smaller light. The Jack herer will be vegged for 4 weeks, alongside the autoflowers under my 400w hps using 18/6 lighting. Using my hps for veg will cause more stretch in between nodes. But I don't have any height issues so I'm not worried about that. Feel free to comment, offer advice, or criticize.
