Chefbjy Dark Harvest Grow Challenge

#1Three of each strain
#2 5x5 with 6inch exhaust 4inch intake
#3 cfls and a daylight led at 100watts seedlings. 1000watt mh for veg 1000watt with adjustable ballast to turn up to 1100 watts for flower.
#4 medium roots organics original and promix mycro ammended into water only. Will list ingredients when my recipe comes together.
#5 jiffy pellets to seedling containers 1gallon plastic pot tbd fabric pot probably 7gallons
#6 no nutes expected but might use some flower boosters...I'll write in my amendments here.
#7 pt 1 five successful harvests 3rd season growing.
pt2 never really grew anything in my life tried growing mj when I was young but grandma always pulled the plug. However I have successfully transplanted numerous trees, bushes, and flowers that thrived. Also did some rose graphting when I was in my 20s and tended to them as best I could. Created some nice rose bushes with my graphting.

Grow philosophy water only, no ph monitoring. Training topping lst and hst and depending how vigorously they grow... Lollipopping and slight defoliating/pruning along with supercropping and bonding. 24 hour seedling veg for 14 days then switch to 1000watt mh on 18/6 for veg sprouts. Switching to 1000watt mh for first week into flower before installing 1000 watt hps to control a bit of stretch if any height problems arise this is where I will get a lot of supercropping done. No defol after 3 weeks flower. I'm sure I'll have more to add along the way 😉.

Why I grow mj. Enjoyable stress relief from everyday bustle. Saves me money from buying crappy weed. I know I can grow better smoke then most dispensaries around me. Medicinal properties have me off of opiates for 5 years and I'm further studying and divulging on the qualities and propeties of this medicine.

What interests me most about the challenge. The strains intrested me most and I've never grown genetics before they invite. I'm curious to see the difference in trichome development after dark period and I always question my ability to grow compared to my peers. Even though I'm not as experienced or as smart as a lot of you I learn quickly. I can process information and understand this is a challenge and we get to see what methods each other uses and we can learn and imply things from each others grow.

Thank you for the invite 😉.

Didn't use the promix. I like the roots organics original. The consistency is great, dries out evenly, and it soaks water nicely without worrying about over watering.
 
Ojh I figured Campesino was busy so I added my info so he didn't have to do a huge write up. He mentioned that we should probably update on initial thread and to share the link to our journals there. Idk though lol. Reading through 13 pages before any action happens? Seems like it's going to be a super long thread 😆.
 
Thanks Shotgun. Glad you're following along. I saw your post on OJH s thread, you're doing a great job if you're staying away from that smack. A lot of people I know are recovering addicts and are having a hard time not relapsing. It's hard to get help from people when they know you've been a druggie in life. But the ones that WANT to get better I feel for...they try and do whatever they can not to relapse. Gotta help yourself beat it before anyone can help you throughout recovery. ✌
 
Campesino I don't mind using the original thread to keep our subscribers updated. I think our individual threads will keep the new readers occupied and they can catch up if they wish.

I know what you mean about time 😉. You sound like me 2 months ago lol. I've finally got some extra time on my hands and a little stress relief from work after a whole year. Trying to take a break before I load myself up with school work now and just keep myself occupied with growing dank buds 😃.
 
Great write up. If this is really your 3rd grow wow. I've been growing my whole life. Mostly veggies and trees. Well and ummm outside grows. And yes I started back with mj to get off pain meds. Was on them through Drs for over 10 years. Worst 10 years of my life. Up and down. Pure hell after awhile. Yeah when they work you feel like a God. When they dont you just want to die. Good luck with the challenge.
 
every time you start thinking about a fix smoke a joint of really good stuff so you can't walk or talk lol you'll get there and once people see your serious they will help,Smack is tough it changes your brain chemistry but you can do it
 
2 gc and 2dgth are having a hard time shedding the husk. The gc seem to be shedding it just fine but kind of worried about the helmet heads. My last seed that did this didn't make it even after I carefully removed the husk 😟. One more day in the pellets to see if the husks fall off and they will be in first container. Stems grew pretty tall out of the pellets on a couple so I lowered the cfls.

After they've grown out of the seedling container they will get a small amount of my soil mix in the bottom of one gallon plastic containers. My other plants seem to be loving my soil mix and I'm confident they will enjoy it too.

Going to buy a couple more clip lights and bulbs and put them in my tent when they go into first container. The tent is calling them 😆. Wish me luck with the hull shedding ✌.

The ones I have now Just let them go. Didnt touch them. And after 10 days they popped the shells. I killed all my others that ever did that by messing with them. I'd let them go.
