lights. 2 marshydro ts600, 1 mars hydro 300w (old model I had laying around)
I have an carbon filter exhaust system.
growing in fox farms soil. Started seedings directly into happy frog soil. Transplanted in 1 part ocean forest to .5 happy frog
seeds:Random bag seeds from 3-4 years of age. Living in a box in my desk. (Will be ordering seeds soon)
Grow summery.
I started two seeds Thanksgiving weekend just to see if the seeds were still viable, considering the age and poor storage, they both popped. About a week into the grow the seedlings started to yellow. Not sure what was happening i tired to water less maybe i was overwatering(not the problem) about a week later I thought I tired everything and the seeds were too old and not good(lies) I grabbed my old fish tank water tester to check the ph of my water, was wayy too high 7.6-7.3. So I took to my local hydroponics store and was able to snag a ph meter and ph up and down and started watering around a range of 6.3-6.8. Over about a week the yellowing stopped but the leaves started falling off and I thought they were done. So thinking now I have my bearings in check I'll try again and popped 5 more seeds just to see what can come of this experiment.
Close to Christmas week I was blessed with not just 5 new happy seedings but the two dying plants were starting to grow new green leaves and were looking healthy again.
For the month of January I just had them in my small 2x2just growing out. I also topped for the first time.
In February I got the two mars hydro ts 600w and got my 4x4 set up for the first time and put the plants in. I then transplanted the bigger plants and the runt was left in a sub par size pot because I ran out of soil and wasn't able to get any for about 6 days because of work and the store I go to hours. But I got transplanted into 3 gallon pots, except the runt, only in a one gallon.
I've just flipped into flowering after 3 weeks under the new lights and I have my fingers crossed, I'll have to sex them so I'll be keeping my eyes on them. Once I have them sexed I'll take clones of the females in hope of keeping it around if I get some good smoke.
But that's my grow experiment so far, I'll post updates if I remember to take pictures more often
