So here we go.

This will be my 1st Journal, my 2nd CFL grow, My third grow altogether. (first one was 500w hps)

I currently have one Kush plant left over from a bach of seeds I bought early this year, Its about two weeks old at this point, but the main focus is the Buzzberry I will be attempting to grow.

Buzzberry is 70% indica & 30% Sativa
It Is a blueberry x Bubblicious cross.
Designed for northern growers like me :D They are feminized BTW.

I will be using my 10 000 lumen Rubbermaid CFL growbox for 4-5 weeks to start them out then taking them outdoors to finish.

Nutes will be
8-7-6 for first 2 wks
24-8-16 for 3rd to 5-6
11-22-6 for flower

Soil is:
MG potting mix
peatmoss
Black earth
pearlite-Vermiculite mix

The goal is get great bud for the least amount of money. Dont Get me wrong, I have a full Hps set up with Dutch nutes and so on, But the point is to get my friends to see how easy it is to do (So they don't keep bugging me for mine) that way we can trade and try diff strains or even develop our own.
With that said the whole set up is about $125 which includes everything
soil nutes and growbox.....oh ya seeds too!
Not Bad for the price.

Four Days Later and the sprouts are about an inch tall.
I should have some pictures soon.

Btw feel free to comment but keep in mind that I'm trying to do this with the bear minimum, Just to see if I can.
I have used all the expensive gear with great results ie HPS bulbs and sensibloom etc..
this time its making it happen with the cheap products and great care. Lets see what happens.

Nice set-up... I have the same problem trying to get my buds to grow buds... LOL!
A word of caution, be careful when you place them outdoors, full sun will fry the leaves.
I know from experience... it was a sad sad day... tho they did make a full recovery... :)

Why thats the true Hindu Kush my friend. It was the last seed I had left over from a batch I bought early this year and left one behind just in case.

this is my second go this year, the first batch had 2 dead ones and 2 of the most beautiful male plants I ever saw. Of course I had to kill them, which broke my heart but you gotta keep atter to get anywhere.

But thats why I saved the last one, I knew I would buy more and I would have 2 kinds.

Alrighty then! So it's been 9 days since the Buzzberries broke ground (sprouted).
Also my Hindu Kush plant is 'bout 3 1/2 weeks old. I'm still sticking to the program from the first post but I have a favour to ask of you guys.....
Give me your input here, Should I top the Hindu Kush or not? Its about 7" tall and about 14" wide. :mrgreen:

I'm feeling like its a yes but I'd like to have you dudes involved in this grow.

Anyhow, here is a gander at the girls!

Hey man, the plants are looking really healthy. I might try topping the kush, it looks like it would respond well.

Keep growing :leaf::leaf:
