Bubba 2....we love you!

[rockman]

My fatherly pride is showing. Here's my second grow of Bubblelicious auto from Nirvana, 13 days from sprouting, and grown in Kind/Ocean Forest soil. Under 3 100 watt CFLs right now...many more coming later. Just love the way a cannabis sprout develops and acquires each node! Such a lovely symmetry also! 🌱 As expected I'm so looking forward to this adventure,. I'm sure you all understand that feeling! 🙌

[Green75]

3 hundred watt equivalents or three true hundred watts..??

[rockman]

Three hundred watts equivalent, 1600 lumens each. Eventually I'll have about 10-12 of those bulbs shining on every bit of the canopy. This is what I used last grow...I'm trying a bit to do a comparison with this grow in soil with the last one with coco/nutes. We'll see.🌱

[insomniaczzz]

She is a little beauty!

[rockman]

Thanks Insomm, she seems quite happy with the soil and plain water right now. So much easier than mixing nutes! 😊

[Karlee]

She smiled for the camera. She looks like fun! Don't forget updates!

[rockman]

Yes indeed Karlee, she smiles so pretty! 😊 I'm going to try to keep the pics coming regularly on this one. 🌸

[rockman]

15 days and eight growing points are now visible....time to top this baby and let those shoots become precious colas! Updates to come. 🌱

[rockman]

19 days from sprouting, and 3 days from topping. I'm loving the Kind/Ocean Forest soil so far! I've just used distilled water, and the result has been such healthy color and growth. I'll soon use LST and light defoliation to allow the 8 growing points to spread out and become the only colas. So exciting! 😊🌿

[Tika]

Really love this stage! Such nice work!!!! Excited for you!!!!

[rockman]

Thanks Tika! Growing one plant at a time really gives me the time to lavish my baby with attention. Hope your absence from growing is not too painful! 🌸💚

[Royal Nugs]

Looks great rockman! Beautiful!

[rockman]

Thanks Nugs! This kind of grow with the Kind soil is really interesting, and now I feel comfortable enough to join all of you manipulators in training and shaping my grows. Thanks for sharing all your very valuable experience! 🌸

[Royal Nugs]

Tag, you're it! Time to start a journal!

[rockman]

That's pushing it a little now 😊 I realized yesterday that due to my "keep it fun" nature, I had forgotten details (like names) of my previous grows, and even names of seed strains I recently purchased, so I started a write down list of all varieties. Yes, it is helpful to write down details, and hopefully now that I am on a forum (something I never imagined before September), I will do so! 🌻

[rockman]

Two fan leaves off, exposing the eight shoots to all the light possible. Just found out that fresh young cannabis leaves are rather tasty as edibles! 🌿 😊

[Green75]

Looking nice and low and fat!!!

Good job!!

[rockman]

Appreciated Green! Just how you like them!! 😄

[insomniaczzz]

rockman, the girl is looking great and you've discovered a new salad green!

[rockman]

Thanks, and yes, the fan leaves were very tender and dare I say delicious! 🌿 Just listened to a Green Flower seminar on how one can use cannabis medicinally, and it was mentioned that fresh leaves are very high 😊 in nutrition, though not psychoactive. Feeling even better now about removing some growing leaves for this grow!!

[rockman]

Looking lovelier every day! There is a wee bit of nutrient burn yellowing the tips, but since I'm growing in the Kind/Ocean Forest soil and have only given it water, I'm going to wait and see. GWE mentions that in this case the hot soil will eventually not cause an issue, and the yellowing will cease. Will be spreading out the growing shoots very soon.

[Green75]

very beautiful little girl....love it

[rockman]

Thanks Green, I'm enjoying this baby thoroughly. Getting more exited about my training plans, including keeping it low, wide, and PHAT! Thanks for your inspiration! 😊

[Tika]

The classic image of what we strive for rockman! Totally robust! Thank you!!!!

[rockman]

Thanks to you as well Tika for exemplifying the dedication and loving commitment that one can have to nurturing our very special babies! 💚

[kingfish]

What a beauty. Looks like something someone would buy as a house plant.

[rockman]

Thanks Green....a super productive house plant it hopefully will be! 🌿

[PRIMO]

That is a house plant at my place.
