Hi guys,
This is my grow journal that I've been meaning to put up for a while now. I sorta wanted to get my setup finished before posting a journal, but I've now realized that my setup will probably be constantly changing so I might as well just put it up and document the changes.
Here are the 27 Purple Diesel Clones that I purchased on 1/6/11. They are rooted in grodan cubes. I plan to flower 25 of them soon, keep one mother and maybe grow out the last one either as a tree or scrog. I haven't decided.

I bought them on impulse late at night, so I didn't have any pots or soil to transplant them to right away.
I wasn't able to transplant them until 1/8/11 into 2 gallon grow bags filled with Foxfarm Ocean Forest soil.
After transplanting them all, I put them directly under a 400w MH on an 18/6 light/darkness cycle.

Here they are 2 days after transplant (1/10/11).

The next day I started working on two 4 foot by 5 foot grow tents made out of 2x4's and black/white poly.

After several hours, I finally had a new home for my baby girls. Day 5 after transplant.

You can probably notice that the color of the lighting has changed. This is because I wanted to move the 400w MH into my dedicated veg room. For the next couple days, I will be vegging them under a 600w HPS. Once I flip the switch to 12/12, I will change out the light to a 1000w HPS.
Here is a sneak peak at my 24 square foot triple 400w MH veg room.

On the left are 25 freshly transplanted clones. 14 Trainwreck and 11 Purple Erkle. Again, I plan to keep one of each as a mother and flower the rest ASAP.
In the middle and right, I have some random plants that I purchased that I plan to use as mothers. I have 3 duplicates in there, so I plan to flower those ones as soon as they get big enough. The strains are:
2x NYC Diesel
2x AK47
2x Durban Poison
Jilly Bean
OG Kush
LA Confidential
Waikiki Queen
Afgoo
Granddaddy Purple
Odyssey
Sour Diesel
