My original journal was deleted, so I am starting fresh.
STRAINS:
~(2) Ace of Spades, (1) Cheesequake and (2) Purple Kush – all from 2 local dispensaries.
SETUP/TECHNIQUE:
~LST during veg with mild supercropping during flower in places where I can't tie back the buds
~Small closet grow with low ceiling. Roughly 5’widex7’,longx4.5’tall(hence the lst)
~Soil ½ fox farms Ocean Forest and ½ Happy frog, cut 20% with perlite. Using 3 gallon pots.
~600 watt HPS from start to finish.
~No nutes through veg – lights set at 18/6
~Fox Farm Big Bloom ½ strength every other watering during 12/12 and 1 tablespoon molasses for every watering during 12/12.
~6” CFM with charcoal filter to bring in air and keep smell down. oscillating fan and small cheap inline fan for heat and general circulation
~No added C02
OTHER:
~Vegged for about 5 weeks before switching to 12/12
~Found mites after about the third week of veg. light infestation, but the first time I have ever had these. Used neem2 during veg, which killed them, but they kept coming back (and the this shit is nasty to work with). In flower I am trying a new concentrate sold by my local trusted indoor garden center. It is similar to Liquid Ladybug (organic and safe through flower). We’ll see how it goes.
~I ended up sticking bamboo skewers into the sides of the pots about half way down. i used these to tie off the branches that were going past the rim of the pot. This seemed to give me a little extra space to funk-with.
