Third year grow

so this is going to be my third year growing. my plan is to start off all of my plants inside then move them out throughout april. i plan on doing three batches of plants. Right now i have five seedlings going and plan on putting them out in another three weeks or so as im starting more. Ill try to update every week to show the progress of the grow. My overall grow is thirty plants hopefully half end up female.

good luck Artifact Peep show(I typed that),,,,,,,,I'll check ya out man,,,Cheers
 
So this is about week two. I think the oldest plant is two weeks old but they are all between ten and fourteen days old. The first round of nutrients will be given to them on friday at fifty percent strength as to ease them in. I am using fox farm organic nutrients and i got a big gallon size container that hopefully will last me the season.

I am going to be taking a little shred vacation to colarado next week so my grow partner is going to talk hold of my beauties.

When i get back the real work begins. Outdoor transplants will start and more indoors will be rolling out. Im planning on doing several batches in two week periods before moving them outside just so the veg stage has started before mother nature starts attacking.

thanks man. yeah they seem to be doing pretty good. they sure smell healthy the whole room smells like plants. its starting to actually feel like grow season!!!
 
Hey everyoone its been a little while since ive posted an update but here is the progress. The plants have grown a ton during the last nine days. The biggest difference is the stems have thickened up a lot. There is some yellowing of the leaves which i believe is because of a nitrogen deficiency. ever since adding nutrients the plants have greened up. the new growth is all dark green still.

I have more seeds that are germinated which i will be starting hopefully tonight.

I would like to get the current plants outside sometime this week depending on the weather because it is still not quite ideal.

ill post up some more pictures and report some time once i get the plants outside

bring on th grow season!

I just added two more batches of seedling to the collection. a group of six and a group of eight with still more germinating. I built a new grow box that the eight are currently in under four cfls. the idea is to grow these from two to four weeks and then get them moved outside and keep more coming.

tomorrow i am going to move my five oldest plants outside. one of them i fim'd a couple days ago. hopefully they will all start to take off once i get them out there and can start training them

So i just transplanted the first group of five plants outside today in beautiful weather. they are looking a little bit droopy but im hoping after a couple days of sunshine they will perk up.

one of the plants has been FIM'ed and is showing four or six shoots it is still a little to early to tell. if it ends up turning out well i plan on doing it to many of the other plants because im not trying to have the plants grow above six feet. i would prefer to keep them more bushy in shape. there is planty of space in between to allow that to happen.

there are still sixteen seedlings growing up indoors and i will post some pics of those next time i post.

i sprayed plants around where the outdoors are with neem oil to see how the plants there reacted to it. if all looks good then i plan on spraying the plants next time out. in the mean time i sprayed some special bug killer on there to keep them bug free for now.

anyone who has some advice or comments feel free to share

These are pictures of the nine plants under the cfl light set up. They are growing quite fast in these pictures they are only 7 days old. The root systems are starting to really develop as you can see through the cups. After the next watering i think i am going to begin nutrients and reall get them going
