Bagseed - Midgrade - 1st real attempt - March 22

[email468]

I would recommend everyone start with bag seeds provided they realize that they probably won't get anything smokable. It allows someone new a chance to get used to how plants grow, their growing system, how to read pH/PPM and feed and water.

It also allows the new grower to work out any kinks or bugs in the system before planting seed bank seeds.

The downside is the illusion of all that wasted time (I say illusion because learning and gaining experience is never wasted) but I will readily admit that spending months on something that is just going to end up in the garbage could be discouraging. And that is a pretty big downside.

I agree. You can tell that grnman will grow some killer weed given the proper seeds after all this experience and education. He's had his practice laps and is just waiting for the green flag to drop, then look out.

Hey thanks for the props and encouragement guys. Kinda sent a tingle down my spine - is that gay?

No, I'm not really disappointed at all, like you said I got a lot of experience from this and I wouldn't trade that for nothing. I encountered spider mites (OUCH!), watering issues, minor nute burn, heating issues and a few other things that got tossed my way. A lot to take in for a newb huh?

I just want to take the time to thank all you guys that have listened to me bitch and took the time out of your busy schedules to help me out. There's a few people that come to mind so I'm gonna go ahead and say..

Thanks to email, Sir THC, Picasso, bigbudballs, jordan, and all you other knuckle heads out there - you know who you are!

Gamble, winn420, and cannabum, thanks for following along with me through this grow!

No, 51" Toshiba Regza. It's a rear projection tv I got back in 2004. I'm going to upgrade very soon. I wanted to get an LED DLP, but decided to wait it out for Mitsubishi's new LaserVue DLP. Should come out sometime late this summer, just in time for football!

Day 57 - Day 13 of Flower

Nearly 19" tall

Temps and humidity have been good lately

Stats Today:

Temp @ 78 *F
RH @ 44 Percent

Low @ 75 *F / RH 41 Percent
High @ 80 *F / RH 47 Percent

Light Cycle @ 12/12


Things are going good, can't complain...

BTW..

I love to take pics so this journal is going to be filled with more of them since I got my charger. Expect to probably see some random shit along the way.





Here's some shots of plant #4 that's been outside along side it's other counter part. If you remember, plant #4 is the one that had the bad case of spider mites. That other plant is one my girlfriend planted for the hell of it. These are more of an experiment then anything.

You can definitely tell the difference between the way they have been treated by there growth. These outside have small stems and hardly any growth at the nodes. Neither of these two plants have been watered in nearly two weeks. Plant #4 has probably only had one small dose of nutes and that was when it was inside. So it's been awhile since it's had any food. The other plant has never been given any nutes and is doing ok. Temps have been in the high 80's mid 90's, the plants really hate it. Most of the bottom leaves are burned and curled up. It's been cooler the last two days so that's why they aren't looking as bad there.

This is why I always stress low temps. I like to keep my grow room at 82 * F or lower. Anything at 85 and over seems to be slowing growth tremendously on both of these plants.

The MH bulb came with the ballast and hood. I picked up that 400 watt HPS at Lowes for 23 dollars.
