ok so this grow journal is about two months late! I have seriously tried and tried to do this before but i never found the time nor could i figure out how to post pictures cause i have no camera. Luckily I have a little brother who is good at figurin out shit like this (electronics, and pictures).
so this story all started out back in the end of july. so here it goes! so my brother bdrsouthsidesunnyshit was chilllin with some friends outside an apartment kinda in the back smokin some salvia n fukin with shit, just bein little bastards! well, as ive been told they were smokin the salvia and started to look in the bushes like some hippies trippin on nature and like it was sent from heaven my little brother looks down and right in front of him is a two and a half ft marijuana bush!!
So I had tried germinating seeds and had got plants to be two to three weeks old but always had trouble with my pit bulls eating them. So my brother and his friends immediatly transplanted the plant to a pot and moved it inside.
His friend was not wanting to let go off the plant i even tried to buy it cause it was about one week into flowering and had already sexed as a female. So i took the other alternative and convinced him that if i bought the stuff to make clones could i take some?
Well once i had smoked with this kid and convinced him to let me take some clones i immediatly got to work. I had never cloned before so I was researching the hell out of it and finally found riu wich explained it so i jumped right in and took twenty clones.
I took the clones back to my place and with one two foot Mr Light Luminaire in the top of my closet i started to try and root the clones. During the first day i was researching like hell about it and discoverd something that gave me one hell of an idea.
The next morning i woke up and went straight to my local wal-mart and to the closets green house to buy a fish tank two small pumps some styro-foam and perlite and a few guppies and mollies. SO i went home and got the fish tank ready for fish and put an extra pump on the left hand side of the tank and let the tank sit for a few days. After about two days i then transplanted two clones from soil to perlite and had them in black net pots that were fitted in styro-foam with the pots in the water and a air stone blowing right on them. The lighting for this was the regular top of the fish tank with two 60 watt plant bulbs from wall mart, but the lights were suspended with shoe strings and coat hangers above the plants.
After about a week and a half i had roots, i had read and researched and decided to wait till about two and a half weeks before i transplanted them into soil. I then started cleaning my closet more to be more space efficient and decided to move the plants to the floor with the lights that now consisted of some shop light clamp fixtures with some 23w cfl's and the the Mr Light fixture.
Well see here is where i ran into a problem that is called Sable. Sable is not a wierd strain of marijuana youve never heard of no its a little red nosed pit bull puppy that for some reason loves the tase of weed whether it be the plant or in a sack that if im smokin shes gonna eat it. Well i had saved six of the twenty clones and had them in my closet floor and Sable was an inside dog so i soon realized I really had to do something and fast.
Well after looking at buying grow boxes and building them and all that i eventually decided that i would be much better off to buid me a grow box inside my closet. So i got to thinking about where i could get wood and the designs that would work and came up with this. I took two eight foot 2x4's and cut them into 8-4'-2x2's i used these to make a cube and put ply wood on the top and one side as a door. the other three sides have black trash bag on the outside and security blanket on the inside. on the back two isded are two surge protectors with six outlets in them there are two 23w cfl's plugged into them and then from the top is a shaded surge protector comvered in a security blanket and four 43w cfl's and one 23w and a 150w cfl.
On top of our flower box is our clone station. IT is just a wooded box with a door on one side insided there are 4 clones inside foam that is in a bubbleponic setup.
I have gone through many many problems with this and have put alot of effort into this and it is my first grow. I am hoping that you enjoy my journal and follow along with me. Any comments hopefully i have some dank dank sweet sticky gooey budz! peace, love, and ganja
