Bear and the Stinky "Children of the Attic"
OK, two grow logs in one day. I wanted to give these girls a stage of their own, so with out further adieu, I present the "Children of the Attic" They are an Afghani cross with some mystery mix. A female guru around hear who I will leave un named, coff, coff, oh excuse me something "Stinky" made me choke a little, LOL made the beans available to me.
I am embarrassed to say this, but the girls did get abused some do to some heat stress combined with keeping them in the little 4 pack treys too long, but they are recovering just fine and no worse for the ware. They are stretched a little, because when they were recovering I put them along the side of the light and not directly under it , at least that is my take on it, but once I transplant them I will berry them up to the hilt so the stretching won't be a factor at all.
Set up is a Colman cabinet with a 175Mh, small desk fan and a bathroom fan for the exhaust, this cab also can be fitted with my 6x23W CFL's for different projects. I use Black Gold organic potting soil cut with any where from 40 to 50 percent perlite, with using so much perlite the roots have an easier time growing do to the loose medium and the soil affords better drainage and more airation, but also requires watering on a daily basis.
I will veg them for one month approx. Right now they are about 2 weeks from breaking soil and I think that they would be further along in their growth except for the heat/pot issue, but I am determined to make the best of it.
Also, these are two types of strain that are related to one another, but I didn't keep track of the numbers when I transplanted because I was just trying to hurry and save them. Perhaps once they start to develop more distinct characteristics, Stinky can shed some more light on them. They will be moved under the 400W for the last 10 days of veg and be put in bigger pots, at least that is the plan at this point, but I may veg longer because I want to grab some clones in case I find a gal that will be my baby momma, LOL.
Also is a pic of my naglectid bonsai that needs to be plucked for about 5 clones, next is a bud shot from her mom at 5 weeks flower.
Another misolanious shot of a bubbler cloner which I paid for, but will never do again since constructing them is too easy as you can see.
well Adieu for now.

Awesome!
All I can tell you about those beans is that the mystery side of their genetics has been selected to tolerate indoor abuses like heat and such.
Oh and that the mystery side was also selected from plants that had a lovely smell to them.

Best of luck they look good so far!

yeah, i will be keeping an eye on this too- i like your soil mix btw, i am a big fan of black gold and lots of perlite as well. my garden store doesn't sell black gold anymore tho so i have just had to make due with a lot of worm castings instead. :(

I will keep updating, almost want to update again today because the girls have already bushed up a little since starting them on the Liquid Karma last night, but I will still wait a couple days.
Black Gold, love it, simular to Fox Farm, but cost less. I have found quite a few who have swiched over from the FF to the BG with the same results.

Woah.. Sorry to be off topic but are you a chick bear?
If so.. All this time I thought you were a guy, don't ask why..
The reason I'm asking is because one of those pic's look like a girls hand is holding that plant.. Im just a little confused and need some clearing up!
Bear and the Stinky "Children of the Attic"
Nope, the last time I checked I was of the male speacies, but my wife on the other hand is of the chick kingdom.
