OG Kush x Querkle and NL#5 x Kens GDP

[andy107]

I guess its about time I do one of these, so here we go. Im running some OG kush x Querkle and some NL#5 x Kens GDP. Im hoping to maybe find a purple kush in the OG cross. And im not sure what to expect from the NL#5 cross, hopefully some dank! Im growing in a closet right now, not sure the dimensions if someone really wants them ill get em. Using CFLs for lighting. I just put in the soil yesterday so we got a couple days till they pop through. They are currently under 3 x 23 watt cfls = to 300 watts. I will probably veg under those, for flower i have 3 x 42 watt cfls = to 450 watts.

The temp has been a constant 72*f and 50% humidity, im not positive on whether or not thats ok, any input would be helpful.

The only camera i have is the one on my phone, but we'll give it a try. Since theres nothing to really see yet heres a pic of the closet so u can get an idea of the setup. Its pretty Ghetto rigged but we use what we got lol.

Hey, sounds like you have some tasty strains! I'm assuming the Ken's GDP is Grand Daddy Purple? Good luck with the grow!

Kens is a GDP strain done by the owner of GDP collective in richmond

Ok well the nl cross has poked through the dirt no sign of the og cross yet. Also my humidity is at 43% which i think is to low for veg, any ideas on how to bring it up?

 

[andy107]

No advice? Lol

 

[OG4UanME]

youll be fine with 43%, maybe by the the time u switch to 12/12, youve saved some money to by a hps any wattage will help dramatically! member the more light the better as long as u can keep temps around 75 give or take.(jmho) but then again live and learn, hands on experience is key to sucess! u have to start some were. good luck mate.

Peace

 

[andy107]

[andy107]

Heres a little update
The smaller one is the OG kush cross and the other on the right is the NL#5 cross.

 

[andy107]

I want to LST or top them or maybe both? any advice on this?

 

[0MEGA]

SUPERCROP + LST
only way to go maybe top it a few times if size becomes an issue

:sign0006:YOur grow looks good, does anyone know the diff between the Ken,s cut and the original GDP.

 

[andy107]

As far as i know kens GDP is Dutch passion Lavender #1 x Original Big Bud and is only a few generations from the original mother stock.

 

[andy107]

Sorry for the early bump but im excited to say the og/querkle plants newest set of leaves is showing purple/lavender colors will post pics when its more visible. (camera sucks)

stopped in to check out your diary, really like your low cost set up, i too started along the same lines then i got hooked and haven't turned back since, have you ran any other gear using this setup, would love to see some pics, keep up the good work, i just ordered the querkle, what are you doin for your nute regimen

Thanks for stopping by bro, this is the first run i have done with this setup. I have grown with cfls before but the plant died when the ex got mad at me and decided to bury it in the snow! But thats old news..lol moving on.

I would love to get a nice set up with HPS and MH but money is very tight in the ole mitten!
For nutes i dont really have much, pretty basic and simple. Im using store bought green thumb potting soil with time release ferts, and i have a bottle of FoxFarm organic Big Bloom plant food for when i flower them. Any other Q's just let me kno!
