Well here we go again!
This is going to be only my third grow but the first two were very educational so hopefully we'll be able to avoid some powdery mildew and some spider mites this time around. I have a 5x5 grow tent set up with a hooded 400 watt HPS, ventilation with inline fan and a carbon filter for the smell. I have a fan going at just the level of the top canopy with a CO2 bag and the little vents in the tent open for some decent circulation that showers my girls with CO2 all day.
I wish I had a CO2 tank in there but I need to upgrade to LED, or a 600 watt at least, but all good things come with time.
I have a Bubba Kush that's nice and bushy, needs a trim today actually so maybe I'll be taking some clones for the first time, and a Skywalker OG that's just a little under two weeks younger. Though I plan on keeping them both in veg for a while so by the time they go into flower the age difference won't matter.
I'm about to increase my population though cause I have 8 little sprouts which is amazing considering those seeds were all sitting in a baggie in the back of a closet for over a year and yet, all of them still popped. I built a nice little enclosed closet with a 4 tier resin shelf, some panda paper, a T8 light, a heating mat and some creativity. By creativity, I mean duct tape.
I know all of those, most of them in fact, will most likely be male since I didn't grab any feminized seeds. But the plan is to watch carefully and cull out the males, so we should be alright. I check on the plants obsessively even when things are all good anyways.
Between the seedlings that turn out to be female and the cuttings I plan on taking off my Bubba Kush and Skywalker later today we should have a full crop of at least 6 or more plants. Maybe 8 or more, we'll see.
I'll try to put up some pictures later today.
