Well the time has come, I have lurked around the farm for long enough and it is time for a grow journal..
I run a DR120 with a Growzilla reflector in which I have a 1000w Hortilux HPS along with a 400w SunMaster Cool Deluxe MH to get the most out of all those lumens the CO2 is raised to 1500 and day temps are around 82-83. The plants will be grown in 2 gal Smart Pots using Sunshine mix #4 as a soilless medium with nutrients by HESI.
I have a special veg closet for starting seeds in which I have a 250w High Pressure Metal Halide, I believe that giving young seedlings lots of blue light, high nitrogen low potassium, shorter photo period, high humidity and low temperatures helps give more females. Yes this is what Dutch passion says, but it is basically the same thing as saying give the plant what they need and try at all costs to keep stresses at 0. My closet meets all my requirements... Now watch as I get all males lol but seriously I usually get about 1M:3F even 1M:4F.
For those of you not familiar with Chronic it was created by Serious seeds in 1994, the original makeup consisted of Northern Lights/Skunk x Northern Lights but in 2000 Simon (owner of Serious Seeds) decided to "invigorate" the strain by adding AK47 to the mix. My Chronic seeds consist of Northern Lights/Skunk x Northern Lights/AK47 and are sure to produce forearm sized colas.
On 2/21 seven seeds were placed in between a few moist paper towels, after 24hrs all had germinated and were placed in Rapid rooters, another day and five of the seven are ready to get potted. As of right now I am just waiting for the taproot on my last two seeds to get a little longer and then they can join their brothers and sisters.
