Second grow around

[hanayama]

Hi all.

ive been gone for a couple months, i finished up my first grow back in april(a glorious success) but then work and summer kept me from being on here much.
but now im back, I just started my second grow about a week ago.
I got 7 clones of strawberry cough from a friend, theyre in the basement right now, all looking very nice.

The room is about 7x12 with about 7 1/2 feet of height.
we are planning on splitting the room in half and running a veg and a flower room.
right now theres only plastic on the walls, but soon we will finish it off. with reflective boards, and a black plastic divider wall.

right now they are in a humidity dome with 6 cfl's on them.
i am also using olivias cloning solution, im not sure if its helping, but it sure isnt hurting.

a veg light will be purchased this weekend and I have a 400 watt hps for the flower room, when the time comes.

They are in rockwool cubes right now. they will be put in FF planting mix with perilite within the next couple days.

Im thinking about 3-4 weeks of veggin and then into the flower room.
I will be taking a mother and hopefully doing some sort of SOG. Maybe not a whole sea, but at least a respectable great lake or reservoir.

id like to get into a cycle of harvest every month or so, but ill just play it by ear...i may even do a lil tying down or toppin.

well ive rambled enough, here is one pic of the clones. its kinda shitty, it was taken on my phone. once i find the power cord to my camera ill put some much better ones up.

i do have a couple questions about keeping a mom.
should i keep her on a different feeding schedule?
what size pot would be safe to put her in? am i eventually going to have root bound issues?


how soon can i start using ferts on my little ones??

thanks for the help

[hanayama]

still on shitty camera phone, but itll do

Vegged for 5 weeks.

The 4 big ones are 1.5 weeks into flowering. The tallest is 22 inches, the shortest is 18 inches.

The smaller one is a clone we nursed back to health, we will put that into flower in a couple weeks. Its about 8 inches.

I am using Fox Farm liquids per schedule and liquified seaweed.
Just flushed last week.

They are under a 400 watt hps and about 7 23 watt on two lamps.


.....thats what i got....

ill try to keep the updates a little more often.

[hanayama]

the 4 large ones are 2 weeks and 2 days in flowering
the little one "Lindsay" will have her first nite time tonight, she is about 11 inches tall.

they just started showing their goods, a couple days ago.

they are under a 400 watt HPS and I have (9) 23 watt CFL's as a supplement.

Should I be worried about a few of the stems have a purplish red color on parts of them.

other than that, I havent had any problems with them...knock on wood...

thats all for now

great article on keeping mother plants.

ah ha!! gracias!

[hanayama]

so we harvested our first strawberry cough batch on Jan. 28.
we had 4 plants, each yielding a little over an ounce each.

I failed to take any pics at the time, sorry
but we did have one straggler...

we named her lindsey lohan
we had to cut her down to damn near nothing, she was pretty weak and undersized, hence her name.

anyway, she was about 2 1/2 weeks behind the rest.
we cut her down on Feb. 16th.
she has been hanging since then.
we will probably trim her up tonight.

[hanayama]

these clones were clipped on Jan. 24
the mom was a lil stressed so they took a while to root.
we transplanted them into these cups on feb 19.
they will be transplanted into their final homes once lindsey is done drying and we can clean the room, so probably in 3-4 days

i imagine we are going to trash the smallest one or two of them.
and give a couple to a rather fly young guy...unless you want those too, let me know.

we are going to top these ladies soon, and going to veg them a little shorter than we did last time.

heres the butta we made from our first harvest.
we got alot more than i thought we would, so that was good


im also looking forward to getting several different strains soon.
including silver pearl, white widow, and a couple others that i cant remember. mazar maybe

thats all i got 4 now-----

Trimmed up and weighed lindsey a little while ago
got just over 45 grams off of her

week 7 of flowering
2 weeks left

no more ferts. just mollasses.
this was my first experience topping.
kinda did a mix of topping and fimming(not on purpose)

ill put some more up in about a week

Gracias! this is the 2nd batch of strawberry weve done, looking better than last time i think.



Looks awesome! Hows the cough? I hear it's a great anti anxiety med.. true?

the strain i have is kinda a zoomey energizing high.
good for wake n bake and smoke n do stuff situations.

i imagine it would be good for the anxiety too.

:rastasmoke:
its covered with crystals already, we made butter last time, were going to do hash this time...should get some good stuff from that.

more to come soon!:rasta:
