Been posting here for a while, but never an actual journal. Going to sloppily keep track of things here to try and dial things in for my next runs, taking clones of almost every seed i pop lately, it only makes sense. I have no sponsors, everything i use was purchased, if i give a product shoutout you can be assured i really bought and use it.

Running:
BudgetLed 500w in my 3x3x5' closet(bloom)
HLG 300V2 in 32x32x50" tent (#1)(bloom)
PlatinumLEDp300 Blurple in 32x32" tent(#2)(veg)
Sun Systems 2'T5 5bulb in 2x2x3' clone/seedling tent

Current genetics:
3 Queens (Wifi43 x Bubba Kush) by CSI Humboldt (4 phenos)
Money Gun (White Runtz x Gushers) by Cannarado Genetics (2 phenos)
Candy Milk (Cereal Milk x Gushers) by Cannarado Genetics (3 phenos)

Amended FFOF soil, with added:
perlite (nothing added)
Epsoma bat guano
Build A Soil worm castings
Build A Soil "Craft Blend"
Down To Earth alfalfa meal
Dr Earth Premium Gold All Purpose
Dr Earth Flower Girl
Coast of Maine Stonington Blend

Most days, they will be given plain filtered tap water. I will also occasionally use liquid nutes including:
Neptunes Harvest fish and seaweed
Dr. Earth Pump and Grow all purpose
Fish Shit
Planet Earth compost tea blend

Anyone and everyone is welcome to reply with comments/criticism/general banter at any time.

Heres a shot of the closet, 3 different plants of 3 Queens are the nearest ones and a pheno of Candy Milk in the back towering over them.

Got my bottles of Fish Shit today. Expensive stuff, ill definitely be using it sparingly, mostly in bloom. Met the guys who own the company at Cannacon this year, they were super cool, gave me a couple samples and my ladies seemed to be loving it. Im a sucker for shaking hands with the folks whos stuff i use, them deciding to attend that event and enthusiastically interact with growers along with BuildASoil is the reason i placed orders with them recently.

I love the fish shit guys!

mans the stuff is a nice addition for soil grows in particular. And honestly way under cost of mammoth p which have about the sameexact product claims. Increase yield snd terps. I guess fish shit was used in a double blind study with pretty crazy numbers. Although I haven’t looked into the actual study, just part of their marketing points.

a shot of tent #1. 3 plants in a 3x3. under an old HLG300v2.
2 Money Gun and 1 Candy Milk

Tent #2. a handful of clones and a big Money Gun plant under a 300w Blurple light, soon to be replaced by a BudgetLED 250w i got with a croptober deal.

More rooted cuts. I literally took these with a rusty dirty knife, threw them in a bowl of un-PH'd tap water that i didnt bother to clean, dipped in the cheapest rooting powder i could find, and put into rockwool under a t5 and left alone for a week. Maybe im just lucky but i have literally never took any of the many precautions i see folks taking here for clones, nature is dirty lol.

My new BudgetLED250 showed up today, gotta love super fast shipping. Decided to set it up in the closet next to the 500w, plenty of room. Added the big misfit Money Gun#1 from the blurple tent in there. All clones were moved from the nursery tent to the blurple veg tent.

Decided to train Money Gun#1 today and she has been renamed "the beast" Shes beginning to stretch.

20211028_191149.jpg

Had to cull one of the 3 Queens plants. She was looking worse by the day. A dying flowering plant has no place in a garden full of thriving ones. Pretty sure i figured out what killed her. My Neptunes harvest fish and seaweed bottle went anaerobic, i had it for a long time. and she had a strong feeding with it. Lesson learned, down to 4 plants under the 500w.

Last day of week 2. Filled the spot from the dead 3 Queens plant with another Candy Milk from the 32x32" tent. Gave the 3 queens ladies some booster seats since they were the smallest in the closet. They are on boxes and closer to the light now, more even canopy. hopefully they get nice and fat with the extra lumens. Candy Milk #2 is the clear winner of the bunch so far, showing blues and purples already, as did some of my older Gushers crosses. Sure to be a colorful stinky bouquet of goodness soon.

Every flowering plant just drank some tea from one of these giant Malibu compost tea bags. They will get an earthworm casting slurry with a few ml of fish shit on the next watering in a few days, and probably some Neptunes Fish and Seaweed over the weekend or this time next week. Then back to plain water for a bit.

Well i made a rookie move and neglected to check for balls for a bit. Too long obviously. All three of the 3 queens plants were herms. one plant had quite a few balls, some of which were opened. No bueno. Pinched/cut all balls and lower buds/larf. We'll see what happens. Definitely never leaving larf again.
