All right campers,
This is what we are after
Spring is in full force and I am going to have some 1st class medicine this summer and you are all more than glad to come and follow along and see my grow in progress. I have been growing off & on for the last 10 years or so, all in soil. It seems just yesterday my friend gave me my 1st clone of Super Skunk, I had no idea what I got myself into.
So many years & stories later we arrive today to watch the birth and growth of some truly great medicine, I have arthritis in my left need from old sports injuries at the early age of 39 and I wanted something to ease the pain and from research I found this strain call Chernobyl from Subcool @ TGA seed Co.
I got a chance to meet the man earlier this spring at the Hemp / 420 EXPO at the Cow Palace in SF, CA and got to chat with him and Jorge Cervantes and had a great time and learned as much as I could with the time spent.
I ordered some Chernobyl and as a freebie from Speedy Seeds I got 3 Vortex seeds as well. I am also a Subcool's Super Soil and have been using for almost 5 weeks now with a couple different strain and I have had great success so far.
I started 1 Vortex & 2 Chernobyl seeds in germination using a method that has worked for me in the past using paper towels, plastic wrap and a glass plate.
I just sprayed the paper towel with water to make it moist the fold it on itself 2 times and put the moist paper towel with seed on the plate the cover with plastic wrap and put in a dark place and I will check it tomorrow to see how they are doing.
The reason we are just growing 3 is we are a valid medical card in holder and the legal limit is 6 where I live and since I have 3 ladies 4 ½ weeks into flowering I can only have 3 more plants. Beside I am small with the space giving and that may change in the future but we work with what we have so let’s get the party started
Strains :
TGA Chernobyl and Vortex
Medium :
Soil:
A combination of soils I have going now in the yard. I am going to start off with the in some very simple soil early in life for these 3 I hope they come to be mothers and supply me clones over the winter that will be here before we know it so I am planning way ahead
Lights: I may just put the outside for the 1st few weeks or so until I can come up with a cabinet for them, when they do go inside the will be under a 180 w UFO led until they are ready to step into the tanning both under a 400 HPS Hortilux bulb with a 5lb C02 tank that seems to run for ever.
Nutrients : I am planning on the soil to feed them what they need and use tap water that has been sitting for a few days to dissipate the chlorine and other bad things from the water and has been working very well so far
Please feel free to add your comments please keep them constructive and no arguing please we have enough problems with the man and other things in our lives for that kid stuff
Ok let’s see what we are working with
So this is my germination kit
I get the paper towel moist them fold it on itself 2 times the place the seed in the middle
then cover. I would normally separate them on different plates but I ran out of plastic wrap so I did a little stacking
And wrapped them up
Put them in a drawer until tomorrow when I check them, that's it for today. I am bushed and heading to shower & bed
Good night
