Let me start off by saying my hand is broken so typing is incredibly cumbersome. I wanted to get this thread going none the less. So I will keep things brief and for the time being contribute mostly a visual log of my feminized BLUE DREAM plant. This is my first venture back in to growing in quite a while and I am admittedly a little rusty (the broken hand doesn't help either ). I have always had amazing results with my CFL Armoire setup in years past, so I decided to jump back in full throttle.
So I had exactly 4 seeds of feminized Blue Dream from one of my favorite overseas repositories along with 2 bag seeds from some delicious bud I had had over the last few months (I know finding a random seed or two in good weed is more than a crap shoot when it comes to growing them, but I figured what the hell, If they come out like mutants i'll just kill them off early). So I germinate the 2 bag seeds and decided that I'll germinate 3 out of the 4 Blue Dream I had, saving one just to be safe. So like 2 days into the wet paper towel method, this hurricane hits (you may have heard of it... Sandy? ), we lose power, and the heat source for the germinating seeds shuts down. 10 days later the power comes back and of course everything is completely dead. So I start over.. with the last seed in my possession. 36 hours in to germination and the seed cracks open and is ready for soil. I hadn't taken any pictures at this point unfortunately.
I transplanted it into FOX FARM Ocean Forest potting soil, and have been following the indicated regimen for fertilizing with initially FOX FARM "Big Bloom" and now a combination of "Big Bloom" and FOX FARM "Grow Big"
Everything is going extremely well. I have it at the 2 week point and it looks absolutely beautiful. It looks good in the pictures but they still don't do justice to just how hearty and beautiful this little guy is. I have it under (2) 105w 5000k CFL bulbs in a hanging reflector. I have 2 more of the same bulb on the way so Eventually I will have it under (4) 105w 5000k CFLs (I like the 5000K light temp for vegging, have had amazing results in the past). For the time being its just the (2) though. 24/0 Light Cycle.
So here are the photo's. I will add more as I deem appropriate. Let me know what you think. I am always open to suggestion and would appreciate any encouragement .
I think I'm going to re-pot it in it's final container today as it seems to be getting large rather quickly.
