Growing journal

I have just planted 15 G13-Diesel seeds and 5 sweet tooth #3 seeds. Will take a photo as soon as they germinate then post photos on a weekly basis. Never done a journal before it will probably help me as I never remember dates and generally have no idea how far into a grow i am. Once it gets going I hope it may be of some interest.

 

Cool best of luck too ya. What method ya going to use? Well hope to see some pics of the progress soon. Lata.

 

Using a 400W HPS with extended spectrum bulb. Growing in soil.
Here's the first showing. Gave the sweet tooth to somebody else to grow ,so far ten of the fifteen G13-diesel have sprouted will repot tomorow then will post new pictures once a week.

 

Repotted into John Innes no3 soil. Will repot into final containers in 3 weeks. Light is 2 and a half feet away. Will move light closer in about 3 days.

This plant has broad leafs more of a G13 trait.

 

Here is a little tip: marihuana changes to the environment, especially hybrid marihuana.

I am going to watch those leaves to see if they change.

 

I always find the leaves get thinner with age.

 

The leaves can transform in any direction.

 

Heres a couple of the plants at about 12 days. The second one has the closest internodes of any plant I have grown. The light is still two feet away due to the high outside temperatures. The grow room is constant at about 89 degrees. To high I know but the plants seem to be growing just fine. Another minor problem is the humidity is only 15 percent but as long as the plants are growing healthly i am not to worried. The plants have some small trichomes on the leaves already. Wish I had a picture of a G13 to compare my second plant to. One of the other plants is growing three sets of leaves at a time instead of two. Will post a picture soon.

 

I got back one of my sweet tooth plants as I plan to cross it with the best G13-Diesel. Heres a picture, its a few days behind the others.

 

Very nice buffoonman!!!! Keep up the good work. Been waitin for an update for a lil while now!!!

 

Hey there thought id stop in and see if ya had any updates on the progress!

Due to high temps growth has slowed this last week or so. Have ordered an air cooled reflector, hopefully when it arrives I'll be able to get the light closer and speed things up. Almost forgot to mention I've repotted all the plants into 11 litre square pots using Plagrons Royalty mix soil. Not cheap at £12 for a 50l bag. I'm hoping to just give them plain water for the whole grow. Keeping it simple eliminates the chances of nute burn etc.

 

The plant i mentioned growing three leafs has split and now has three heads. See picture. There is a thin layer of pearlite on the top of the soil in each pot. This prevents evaporation and helps a little with reflection.
Note the brown tips on a couple of the leaves this is mild nute burn. As the plants were repotted and because the temps were to high growth slowed right down the excess nutes in the soil were not then required and seemed to nip at a couple of the leaves. Now the plants have settled in there new pots and have started growing again the mild burn has stopped. Plus the new soil there are in is Organic and specifically designed for growing marijuana.

 

Nice!!!! They are lookin great!!! Keep up the good work on those lovely ladies! Where did you pick up that Plagron Royalty??

 

Installed an air cooled reflector best money I've spent only £36. Its enabled me to move the light a foot closer to the plants. The reflectors now about 1 foot from the plants. The reflector now gives out virtually no heat the temp directly underneath it is about 88 degrees. Still a little hot but the outside temp is well over 90 degrees. The plants grew more last night than they have done in the last week. Will put into flowering on monday. Will post some photos then. I bought the Royalty mix from a UK supplier who imports it from Holland. All you can do is type the name in google and see if you can buy it where you live.

 

Put them into flower last night. Another picture.

 

Lookin good, keep the updates comin!
