Going into grow 3, trying something different again. Have 2 Samoa Kush and 2 super silver glue in fox farms ocean forest amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 now sitting in 3 gal pots on 3/10/20 on the left side of the tent ( popped beans in jiffy pot starter plugs in 4 inch Coco pots on 2/3/20). On the right we have 1 Samoa kush and 1 super silver glue in Coco amended with Dr. Earth 4-4-4 on the outside and 2 super silver glue in ocean forest/perlite from some other side experiments swapped to soil in the middle. Got some dispensary bag seeds we'll be popping here soon ( sugarkiss & lemon cake) when I settle on where I want to propagate them..
Got 2 viparspectra lights (600w dimmable and 300w veg/bloom)
2'x4'x6' quictent
4" vivosun carbon scrubber exhaust
4" vivosun duct booster top intake
6" vivosun oscillating clip on fan
1 co2 enhancer
18/6 light cycle
Brita h2o p.h.'d according to medium

Gonna be aquiring a different grow space here in a month or so, might be expanding.. staying hopeful but we'll see

Click to expand...

Just amended for the first time at 2 tbl spoons/gallon when transplanting, let the ocean forest do its thing for the first part of veg in 1 gal pots. I was shooting for every 3-4 weeks, going for a 2 month veg.

Figured out where to propagate seeing as the 2x2 is currently being used as a dry tent... Averaging 69-74 degrees Fahrenheit and 40-60% humidity.. been a downpour this week so humidity has been higher but the buds haven't minded yet! Got 4 strains in the "new" veg tent: super silver glue, Samoa kush, sugarkiss, & lemon cake. Just popped the sugar kiss and lemon cake into jiffy starters in fox farms ocean forest in 4" Coco pots under a high output 24w t5. When the 2x2 frees up in a week I'll be swapping em to a cfl veg in 1 gal pots until the new flower room develops. They will hang in there until the move hopefully. Devoted grow room to come... For now I think it's a good use of 8 square feet yeah?

Seeing as the growth hasn't been noticeable since Sunday figured I would show what I've trimmed so far.. although, all 4 beans popped today, let's see how lemon cake and sugarkiss does! just over 3 oz in the jars and a little more to go! Top colas came in at 57.51 oz, already at with 1 plant this 2nd grow what I got out of 2 plants the 1st go around

Finished trimming, total weight was 3.975 oz! I'm happy with that. Transplanted and moved the lemon cake and sugarkiss to the 2x2 for some cfl veg time. The last 4 responded well and the growth wasn't explosive working out well for the little tent. Showing some growth in the 2x4! 4 confirmed ladies, a good start out of the Coco plants, and a change of pace for the soil transplants I didn't think would make it. Don't know if the 2x4 will be big enough to flower all 4 ladies though!

I let the ladies get a little more thirsty than intended... Gave em a good watering tonight p.h.'d to 6.53. I'll check em in the morning and get y'all some better perked up photos tomorrow. Really just trying to show the color and growth of the plants thus far. No defoliation or training to date. The sugarkiss and lemon cake seem to be settling into there new home alright, don't mind the CFLs one bit and temps seem to be consistent between 76-81 F with an r.h. of 35-45%. Got another 2x4 tent ordered for a flower tent with a different light setup. Moving on the 1st so I'll get yah some pics when I get it all set up at the new spot.

Here's a couple non grow light pics, looking a little perkier than last night! Seem to have ran into some burn or lockout in one of the Coco-babies... Had some runoff that was around a p.h. of 5.6, flushed a liter of h2o through the pots until I had a steady p.h. of 6.5 runoff. We'll see what happens I suppose
Everything seems to be fairly content at the moment

Been an eventful day. Defoliated and rearranged the 2x4 to better accommodate the 4 ladies until I can set up the flower tent Tuesday or Wednesday. kept the 2 Coco plants in there for the time being as well. Switched light schedule to 16/8, been noticing plants getting droopy so maybe 2 hours less will help. Most everything has arrived for the flower tent except the light. Need to flip em, they are gonna get too tall! Put the 2 super silver glue Coco experiment transplanted soil into 2 gallon cali-pots and moved them to a pop up dome. want em to be my outdoor experiment. Hopefully they make it to the move next week, one sexed female other isn't showing yet. The lemon cake and sugarkiss still look like they are loving the cfl's in the 2x2.

Well start with the tent since defoliation, looking good, got 1 plant that can't get enough light and 3 that want less still...might do what I did last time and grow out the side branches and top the main stalk. got 4 oz last run topping once, feel like that adds minimal stress seeing as time of veg is in my hands! gotta love photoperiod for that trait! We'll try cloning the tops and hardening them off for outdoor season but research says it takes longer. 2nd group of photos are the dispensary seeds in the 2x2, first is the sugarkiss and 2nd is the lemon cake! Doing well so far! last section is the new grow room! Gonna be a man cave in reality but have a few things coming into play. Fish and guinea pig are going in there too so I might throw my small scale aquaponic experiments in here as well. Might move it cannabis related, see what the space brings but for now the flower tent is all in except the light. Got a week and gonna tear into it!

So the ladies are thirsty again but look at that branch growth since defoliation! Lucky for these gals it's water day!!! Gave em a 250 ml spritz of h2o followed by 1l h2o fed through a watering pot at a p.h. of 6.43. Went back to the house today... might try to mother the cloned tops, figuring they root of course. Could block off that open closet and rig up a light hanger. Kinda exciting getting a little space! As for the Coco babies, looking good! Showing good color on new growth with no burning! Looks like I need to wash the Coco a little more for future grows. Using the mother Earth Coco bale, nice product I just didn't rinse thoroughly enough in a rush to plant. light should be here tomorrow or Friday, grow room to come!

Just a mock up tonight. Light came in and had a minute to set up the tent at the new place. Put space a little more in perspective for when I move the current tent over. Didn't realize until installing that the new tent was a foot shorter ... Should be alright, present setup for tent should still be sufficient for temp control, if not it'll get handled promptly. All in all I got a new veg tent! It's all good, gonna put the mars tsl 2000 in the 2x4x6 for flower, the 2 viparspectra (600w dimmable and 300w constant) in the 2x4x5 for veg, and run cfl's in the 2x2x4 for seedlings and early veg until I figure out if I want to use the closet bump out or not. Trying to figure a use for the cf grow cob, any suggestions? Figure propagation, you get what you pay for..

Move day tomorrow! Pressed after work to get the ladies moved tonight, I'll move the seedlings tomorrow. Got them temporarily setup in the veg tent under the tsl on 50% until tomorrow. Just needed a spot to keep em happy tonight while moving, basically just moving the temporary set up in the 2x4x5 to the 2x4x6 after cleaning. Get the 2x2 in the morning and were off on a real start to perpetual gardening folks. Dr. Earth pulling through alright so far, topping and cloning experiment to come shortly after unpacking!

Think we got a design that works, we'll watch the thermo/hygros to see what needs to be done. But for tonight the plants can rest easy, give em a couple days to adjust and we'll see how they are doing. Ain't a huge fan of moving grow spaces though... necessary evil, stoked with what the space is shaping into so far! Got some plans for a stand for the furry guy and a nice location for the aquarium that might still allow some space for future projects. Hang in there gals, the move is over

So I like to think I got a grasp on this room decent enough so far. Got the 2x2 up and running and tried my hand at cloning.. all 3 tents chugging along folks! stay tuned for for the flop or not haha think I'm figuring a happy spot for the tsl2000 to hang, thing is intense compared to the 600w viparspectra I'm use to... On the learning curve for now... Here's a quick photo update, still unpacking so I'm trying to get em comfortable enough until I can really put the time in they require. Outdoor SSG back in the tents until further notice, haven't figured out where to set em up outside yet. For a couple days, think we are finally content!

Pollen molded... But a good mix up occurred.. got some heat here in Socal and put the grow room to test. Made some changes, added some things, shit got moved around and I'm still trying to figure out where all it went! Haha switched the 2x4's up. In the 2x4x6 we got the mars hydro tsl 2000 dumping progress on the super silver glue sisters and in the 2x4x5 we got the Colorado strain (Samoa kush) I'm keeping alive under 2 x viparspectra lights. 1x 600w dimmable and 1x 300w veg/bloom. Ventilation all 4" with manual timers. Trellis nets are a new thing, fuck it... We threw 'em in there! The canopy is evening out nicely, I dig! See if it changes things up! Going on 2 months!!! About time to flower!!! Moved the Coco-babies and runtz with a means to live outside... Still kicking, Coco going to 5g and soil runtz going into 15g soon. They won't die, I want to see what they are made of! Good looking plants in my opinion! The rest is gravy! Here's some pics to catch yah up! The dispensary seeds are growing slow and good under those cfl's! Glad, with the changes... Room is pressed for space right now! Slow healthy growth is good right now! Got 8 ladies and space for 4!!! Running the 2x2 in the shower and an a/c unit in the old spot. Temps are good and we chugging along again!

Been a couple days, here's some visual updates. Showing growth everywhere! Cfl veg growing slow and well like I hoped, gonna buy me a little time! Trimmings in water in the bathroom are rooting... Just kinda forgot about em but they are rooting... Do I do something with em? Got so many plants right now requiring different amounts of attention. blurple has both Samoa kush (Colorado strain still kicking from 1st grow) and the mars hitting the sweet spot for the super silver glue in the other. Gonna flower em where they are, the kush has been a more of a temperamental strain compared to the other, way more sensitive indoors and out.. outdoor is doing its thing, got the runtz going in them steel containers and the Coco going into 5g over the next couple days.

For sure! We trying and struggling along! It's a good learning experience, plus the lady boss don't care as much when all I do is water! Hoping for the best, really wanted to compare same strains indoor vs outdoor for personal curiosity. Curious to see what those bush babies you got do, man they looking fat and plump from the last I seen em. Must have tickled em right!
