So I thought it was about time to start a grow journal and share all my results and information with the people from whom I have gained so my knowledge from so here goes.
I started in mid febuary 2010 and have harvested two crops and am currently harvesting my third now. my setup changed quite a bit after the first crop (as i had no idea what I was doing) so i will describe the initial set and then the changes
The space is about 1.5m x 2m with a very low ceiling height of 1.2m I started off with a 400w HPS light with no ventilation ( you can imagine the heat problems i had)
I grew 2 strains DNA's lemon skunk and Pukka skunk 3 seeds of each one. One of the pukka's didn't germinate so i was left with 5 plants which were eventually planted in 6.5l deep square pots. I was using bio bizz soil with their nutrients as well but in my general state of not knowing didn't fertilize them that much.
***ROOKIE ERROR ALERT***
Funnily enough the plants grew really tall and right into the light ahhhh! started LST by tying them down by string which helped a bit but too little too late. I veg'd these plants for 34 days and the pukka flowered for 49 days and the lemon for 69 days
The pukka finished really quick but gave few loose buds that you could practically see through nice daytime smoke but not fantastic the plants gave 9gr and 15gr. The lemon did slightly better the buds were still not very dense but a lot nicer than the pukka. They had a lot more space once the pukka was gone. Nice stuff though smelled lovely and nice high . They yielded 23 , 24 and 11gr. I was trimming when wet and cutting buds off stem and drying in a shoe box then once dry putting them in jars and leaving jars open for six hours a day (due to misinformation). Buds were far to dry and in worse cases made a really harsh smoke.
so that was my first boched grow set up I learn't an awful lot and started planning my new set up . Will post next set up soon
