Stones Journal Round 2!!

Grow room prepped and ready to go. For you that followed my last grow, configuration changed to four 85w 5000k bulbs for two weeks instead of 12/12 from seed. I know I was extremely successful in my last grow but I wanted the plants just a little taller. Here is what is germinating tonight:

1- white widow
1- super skunk
1- bubblelicous
1- northern lights #5

All seeds fresh from nirvana, feminized so I'm careful this grow not to stress them one bit. I firmly believe stress will force herm more than anything. Will update in a few days!!!!

I thoroughly enjoyed your first grow SS, and I can't wait to see this one get started

All four popped, planting today at noon. Will have pictures up in the next couple of days when they break ground. Im getting excited!!

Here they are, Day 1 in the dirt!! Also set up the remote monitoring as well.... I hate wondering if my temps will be ok or not when im gone. LOL

Looks very professional, I love the remote monitoring, saves you the trouble of constantly checking on the box

Day in a half and they are already breaking ground. Looks like we are on our way now!!!

Set up "in the box" monitoring today. Seedlings looking strong.

Roots were poking out of the bottoms of the seedling cups so transfered to bigger pots today. Using the same mix I used last grow 60% seedling mix with perlite and 40% fox farm planting mix. Planting mix has a good source of organic nutes to keep it going for a few weeks until they outgrow these smaller pots. Heres what they look like today.

Looking strong

Yes they are. How long are you going to let them go before you switch to 12/12?

Edit: just saw you were going to switch after 2 weeks.

Yeah right around two weeks, I will have to see what they look like in another week and then decide wether to make the flip or not. Its all in what they look like.

Im making a timelapse video of this grow, three pictures per day. Morning, noon and night right before the lights go off. It will be pretty cool when its done I hope...LOL

Heck yeah that will be cool!!!! Timelapse is always awesome

Northern lights (back right) is slowing a little, Might be genetics. It didnt look like a solid seed to me. We will have to see.

Should I switch to 12/12 guys? Roots are poking out the bottom so Im going tonight to get a fresh new bag of fox farm ocean forrest mix. Looking strong.

Looks like it is time Stone.

Thanks billcollector, I had all these people messaging me and posting in my first grow when I was starting the next grow and you have been the only one following!!! LOL. Oh well.

No kidding right, it's all good, you seem to know what you are doing, (more than me anyway). Besides maybe not everyone knows that you started a new grow?

Moved to their permenant homes tonight and switched to 12/12. These plants are so spoiled!!! I hit my new piece (pictured) and started transplanting. I got so stoned and during the whole process I kept looking at the root balls of each plant and noticed that the roots are also beautiful and healthy. I was able to establish a SOLID and gorgeous root ball in each plant using my planting technique. I mean thats half the plant and you never see it, the roots are just as important to the whole plant (50%) and if your not paying special attention to the roots you are only caring for the plant half the time. You plant into mud you will get dying plants, plant in aerated, moist and nutrient rich formula you get healthy beautiful plants. I made sure the ocean forrest was moist and loose so those bad ass roots can take off!!!! watch in a week how freaking HUGE these plants will get.

Lights hooked up running 5-85Watt 2700K and 4-85W 5000K (will switch to 8-2700K and 1-5000K in two weeks) 765Watt total running now.

A/C hooked up and running

Temps holding at 73.5 and humidity is holding at 47%

Oh yeah, Im making a smoking compilation video and ill be posting it to my youtube account in a week or so. sorry about the spelling and what not, Im freaking so baked right now.....

Looking good my man, I can so tell you were baked when writing that, you sound like you wanna make love to the roots, lmao.

looking good bro
those are some bad ass bongs
