...You could only whisper it. Anything more than a whisper and it would vanish.” ~ Marcus Aurelius
What it be my grow-family? Comin back at ya with a Wolvy-Brezerk Style Spider Monkey grow. I've hemmed and hawed for so long about what to grow, how to grow it, how many plants, what this what that, that I threw my hands up and said Fk it, you only live once and I'm gonna do what I wanna do. Flop Fail or Prevail are my only options but as with past grow this 1st year of growing, I'm sure to learn some more as I go and have fun because of you all as it unfolds. With that said, I just wanted to get my little Dojo started since I dropped some beans last night.

@CannaGranny says often that she pays close attention to moon phases and planetary alignments with respect to when to plant. Basically she is the Farmers Almanac but human and better. Last night was a beautiful Full Worm Moon, also I believe referred to as the "Sugar Moon". I need some sugar peeps so I felt it was time to get these lil ladies onto the track and see if they've got wheels.
Tents are 4x4 AC Infinity with a 67 and a 69 controller
1 HLG Blackbird per tent
Bunch of fans
Portable AC that is too big and may be lookin to replace. But with both tents on same light schedule it shouldn't be as hard to just use the lung room/my office to maintain temps
Am lookin into 2 humidifiers but likely will obtain from auction like nellisauction.com
2 things aside some nutes or 2 I may need, are a moisture meter for testing flower and also one for the soil.
Also looking into blackout material that I can replace the large black garbage bags I'm using. Not playing games and not hermin over a light leak if can help it. I want these tents locked down well.

Going to go pop a SNS(Saturday Night Special) and Fruity Pebbles from friend @ 13th Axis in case any of the 8 above don't germ.
Have some Coast of Maine seed starter showing up Friday. Will be using SoHum Living Soil primarily with maybe some 50/50 coco/perl 1" base layer at bottom if it is advisable in 5g fabs.
Pretty much going to ride the
's @Shaded_One coattails and also hope for a bit/a lot of help from anyone else willing.
My plan this grow is to KISS whenever can but it might not sound like it. I know 8 plants will be harder to manage but my rationalization has much to do with how I plan to grow and for how long. I think it behooves me to try for a much faster veg than have before. I am going to mainline 8 colas per plant and don't plan to scrog. If the colas need support I will stake/tomato cage them but for me with this grow I am going to avoid scrogging. It will make it much easier to manage the plants due to them being mobile and not under a net or screen. If I even harvested 2oz per plant dry it is a lb., 4oz is 2lb and I feel I can fall in between there and make the 4-6 months worth it.
I had received my 4 x 20lb grassroots fabric pots yesterday but decided to save them for another grow. I'd have to mix quite a bit of old soil with this new SoHum in order to fill all 8 plants in 5s then xfer to the 20s. Biggest concern though is getting my watering practices down since it seems to be the root of my issues every grow. Saw how the watered a fabric pot from the bottom and then top watered and I dig it. My fab pots have always sat on risers because I was afraid of root rot from them sitting in the saucer and the roots not being able to breathe as well. But I can't feed from the bottom like he does with risers so am going to add that tactic in. I have enough blumats to ensure I can set up each with a dripper on each side. That could be my insurance and back/up plan to hand watering as well as if need to/want to go out of town.
Whelp that is it for meow. If you made it this far thanks and I hope to see ya around

. 
but along with that bag bottom left that was those spongey seed starter plugs. Both from a year ago when 1st started trying to grow. That bookshelf I was just putting everything that was piled up in a closet I needed to empty. Most of the stuff I won't use again but some is actually pretty legit.
