Hello my fellow RIU members. I've been a member of this board for a minute and have followed several of your grow journals from start to finish. I've learned alot from just sitting back and watching while trying to dial in my own grows. Well I think it's about time I get off the bench and into the game lol. I decided to start my very first multi strain grow journal and well as the title suggests I'm running several different strains (12 plants total) under two 600 watt lamps. Using two 600w quantum series ballasts. One hood is housing a Hortilux hps bulb and the other a Digilux hps. As of right now I have all twelve vegging under a single 600w mh for one more week until the switch. I'm using Fox Farm Happy Frog soil and the whole FF nute line. Here's acouple pics of the girls I took three days ago and as you can tell some have been vegging much longer then others. Ok starting from top left corner we have Bluewidow, Mazar x GWS, Serious AK47, CC mixed. Middle row left to right Bubblelicious, CC mixed, 818 headband,and 818 headband. Now for the bottom row CC mixed, G13 Cheese, Afghan Kush and Bubblelicious. I'll post updates on a weekly basis so you all can see how there coming along.

They are now 9 days into flower and have more than doubled in size. Most have shown sex but there's two I'm thinking my be male BW and one of the CC mixed pack seeds. I'llm be giving them a couple more days just to make sure before I pull em. Overall the gardens looking healthy and on track to another great grow.

Well I'm now 12 days into flower and starting to find lil suprises with my CC gear. I have 5 CC seeds going in this grow and so far I've found one full blown hermie (CC mixed #2) and another possible hermie with CC mixed #1. Now hermies are to be expected when running fem seeds just sucks it had to be these two. Both were huge vigrous beautiful plants. Why couldn't the Bubblicious hermie instead lol. Here's acouple pics of the possible hermie. gonna give it a couple days just to make sure. Hope I'm wrong but I know I'm right lol

Well I was checking the girls this morning and found that CC#3 was also a fucken hermie. CC#1 is still questionable but looking like another hermie. 3 out of 5 CC seeds hermied I guess it could be worse. Atleast both my 818's are looking to be on point. Now down to ten plants today and more than likely 9 by friday.

Here's a couple updated pic of some of the girls. First pic is of my biggest 818 looks like she should be a real nice yielder. Second pic is of the Mazar x GWS this plant is growing very nicely can't wait to try this one out!! Third pic is of CC#1 big beautiful girl well maybe boy lol. Really hoping it turns out to be a female should be able to pull 2oz off her easy. Fourth is a bud shot off of my big 818 pictured in first photo and the last two are of my dwarfed 818 lol. This girl stayed very short and bushy. Probably won't yield more than an oz if that but this would def be the perfect pheno for anyone with height restrictions lol.

Naw didn't take any pics of the two before I pulled em. A hermie will have a cluster of what looks like lil balls on the internodes sometimes mixed in with the female pistols and yes it was the fem mixed pack from Cali Connection.

Yeah I agree with u 100% bro. CC may still have some hermie issues but in the end the dank u get when you find the right pheno is well worth the trouble. I cloned the fuck out of my 818 this time around so as long as she doesn't end up growing balls lol. I'll have this strain around for a long time. I got some Kandy Kush and Skywalker OG vegging for my next run but I'd really like to throw some 818 in with that grow aswell.

Well still on the fence with the CC#1. She has a few balls here and there but no clusters like the other two. With the first to CC's there was no doubt but with this girl I just don't want to throw herwithout being 100% sure lol. Here's a couple pics so you can see what I'm talking about.

Shit happens. Atleast I caught it early. Think I'll pull her in the morning before it effects the whole garden.

While I got up this morning in a fairly descent mood. I pulled the CC#1 and decided to go through the rest of the garden with a fine tooth comb and what do I find but another CC hermie. My dwarf 818 was growing balls. That makes 4 out of 5 CC hermies this grow and one last grow. Now I've had a hermie here and there but this is getting a lil ridiculous. Don't get me wrong I'm still a big fan of the dank you get off CC gear just to many fucken hermies. Searched the hell out of every other plant in the garden and not a single hermie except for the CC gear.

Well today was my watering day so I decided to get a few pics of the garden. The first pic is of all 8 bunch together for watering and the rest are just random pics. The good news is there's no more hermies to report so far (Knock on wood lol) and the even better news is there really starting to put on weight. I noticed a lil nute burn starting from my last friday watering (I water twice a week Fri & Wed) so I went ahead and flushed em on wednesday then gave them nutes today at 1/4 strength.
