So I just started germinating my 5 feminized Cataract Kush, 2 feminized Seedsman White Widows, a feminized Kannabia BCN Diesel autoflower, and a feminized Kannabia Big Band.
All 10 seeds germinated. I used the paper towel method. First I boiled some water, and let 4 paper towels soak in it to help decontaminate them. I then sterilized a plate and a bowl and sandwiched them between the two sets of papertowels.
9 of them sprouted, 1 of the Kushes died apparently.
They will be transplanted into a prepared woods area where 2'x'2'x2' holes have been dug, and a mix of his medium has been prepared into the ground:
2 parts Promix BX
1 part natural soil
1 part Vermiculite
1 cup Northern County Pro Grow (5-3-4) pelleted fertillizer
1/2 cup Worm castings (1 - 0 - 0)
2.5 cups of pelleted garden lime
I plan on using bat guano for flowering. They will be checked probably weekly.
The area around the plants was limed with powder garden lime. The pH of the soil was around 4, so I really tried to make sure the pH has been brought up. Im going to test the soil again before they go in the ground. I just tested the 4 holes that were dug first, the pH was around 6.7
I'll test the other 4 when I head out there to plant. I figure I'll let them get there 3rd or 4th set of true leaves before they go into the ground. One of the plants is becoming a mother in my home. I will be using LST like last time to keep her small so I can build a stealth box for her (my 2'x'4'x5' tent doesnt fit anywhere that I feel 100% safe with). I'd like to just do all of it indoors, but I cant power it because I dont pay my electricity bill ( my landlord does, its included in the rent).
I went out and constructed a dual CFL reflector for under $40 using part of a dryer duct. I ordered 2 85W 6500K CFLs that produce 4,200 lumens each. I figured that should be enough to veg all of them to about their 4th node.
I'm also going to transplant them once they need it into a 3" container thats long, so the roots will grow downwards (so when they go in the soil, they will expand outwards and root strongly, quickly).
How does this sound? The spot out there is very remote, so much so that if I dont have my GPS I would get lost getting out. There should be a good amount of direct sunlight (at least 5 hours a day).
I'll keep the thread up to date with more info.
