I have just started the bloom on my first successful grow. Vegged for 6 weeks, a little more than usually recommended, but I only have one and plenty of room to grow.
Strain: Forbidden Fruit (BlueberryxJack Herror), from Amsterdam Seed Bank
Setup: semi-aeroponic(if such a catagory exists). I'm using an aerogarden base that allows the roots to hang from a median into a hydroponic setup, but allowing half the roots exposure to about 2 inches of ait, and runs water from the top down the roots every hour.
Lights: four 26W full spectrum CFLs, one 42W daylight CFL for vegging, for blooming I have kept two 26W full spectrums, and surrounded the plant with one 42W Daylight, two 23W 2700Ks, and one 24W 3000K. All lights within 2" of plant. I feel this will be sufficient for one plant. Also, a friends family member works for Slyvia lights, so all lights accept the full spectrum were free.
Nutrients: I started the first week with one tablets from an aerogarden seed kit, then started an Advanced Nutrients 3-part Micro-Veg-Bloom feeding plan, plus 1mL per Liter Sweetleaf Sweetener. Organics are too expensive and I intend to flush before harvest anyhow.
I started blooming 2 days ago but took no pictures prior to blooming, I'll post new pics shortly. I'll try to keep as updated as possible on the bloom pics.
Also, I took two shoots from the bottom to clone the day before blooming. I would've done it sooner to sex, but I have not successfully cloned yet and wanted a little more stem to work with so I could have some lower leaves removed to promote root growth on the stem where I pinched them.
Hoping for hairs not balls
