Hello fellow rollitupians. I’ve been using this site for years to help with my medical and would like to post a journal to show off my babies and help answer some questions if ppl have.
I have been growing in the NW for over 8 years now, using multiple fertilizer brands (GH:AN:H&G:MILLS:HUMBOLDTS OWN:etc....) and multiple styles of growing (LST:HST:SCROG:SOG)
My states major hydroponics equipment supplier just so happens to have lived a hop and skip away since i was a wee lad, allowing me to gain decades of knowledge in a matter of years, and equipment for dirt cheap.
We shoot for at least 1 lb per 1000w, and one plant per 1000w. If you would like tips and/or advice feel free to ask openly.
This grow journal is for a small 10' by 5' grow room
(2) 1000w HPS
I run a DTW (DRAIN.TO.WASTE) style using PRO MIX HP and 20 gallon smartpots for bud
Two pumps in each res. (one always running constantly mixing H2O+ferts, and the second one on a timer
to water three times daily)
PH: 5.8-6.2 (check daily!) PPM: 800-1300 (start at 800 and work way up to 1300 by week 5 then back to
800)
Water Temp: 60-70 degrees Fahrenheit
Current room temp: 75 during the day & 68 at night (will Lower avg temp by 10 degrees throughout
flowering)
Current room humidity: 50% (will Lower avg humidity to 30% throughout flowering)
For such a small room I use CO2 bags instead of burner
Current FERT Lineup:
WEEK 1&2: (House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(MILLS) Start-R[use on week 3 also]
WEEK 3&4: (House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(MILLS) C4
(HUMBOLDTS OWN) Snowstorm Ultra + Crystal Burst (use both @ half rate)
WEEK 5: (House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(House & Garden) Top Booster
(MILLS) C4
(HUMBOLDTS OWN) Snowstorm Ultra + Crystal Burst
WEEK 6-8House & Garden) Aqua Flakes A+B
(ATAMI) Bloombastic
FLUSH: (CUTTING EDGE) Sugaree
Before i throw my plants into flowering i like to give them 4 to 6 days of 15 hours lights on 9 hours lights off. This middle stage allows the plants to better adapt to their new home before i switch over to 12/12.
The plant on the left is Trainwreck, and on the far right is Jackpot Royale, put into flower 7/21/15
Trainwreck Harvest: 9/15/15
Jackpot Royale Harvest: 9/27/15
The middle plant is Snowdawg II, which is currently on her last week. (Single budded plant is Medusa, waiting to get trimmed)
Also put up pics of some outdoor plants i potted as clones in June and let grow naturally (rainwater only) just for fun.
Also pictures of some clones. PITBULL clones on the left (put into cups 7/19/15) and 3 random clones from
JACKPOT ROYALE, BLACKBERRY KUSH, and CINEX
Will post more pics soon & pics of 2+ pound monster plants
