New and Improved: Featuring Sour Northern Lights x Nevilles Haze

[daihashi]

Time to start the new grow. Vegging is always boring so there probably won't be too many updates in here until flowering starts. I hope to start flowering in about 5 weeks.

Currently I have 12 seeds sitting in a cup of water. These seeds came from a hermie but I'll have my handy dandy bottle of reverse on hand. The plant these came from hermied due to light leaks, which I have a completely sealed cabinet so this should not be a problem; and the reverse is for good measure.

I'll post some pics after the seeds break through the soil in a few days.

Does anyone have any experience with this strain? How does it smoke? How strong is it? How bad is the odor during veg? How much did you yield per watt/lumen?

:thumbsup:

Just read through your last grow to get some background.
Impressive first grow man.
I hope this one will be as successful.

I'm here for the ride. Good luck.

I'm not sure of the breeder as I got these from a friend. A quick google search tells me "X-Line", so I'm not sure if that's the name of the breeder or if seed banks call all crosses "X-line".

Thanks, I think I've decided on growing in CoCo this time around with all Canna products.

Does anyone here know anything about CoCo and Calcium. I've read that it can interfere with the uptake of calcium to the actual plant.

all 12 of the seeds after soaking in the cup for about 15 hours or so have sunk. I've taken them out of the cup and put them in a moist paper towel until they crack.

Hopefully they'll crack in the next day or two and I can transplant them into their rapid rooters. :thumbsup:

daihashi, it's been awhile, my friend! Glad to see you've got another grow growin'. And, this one sounds like it will be a doozy - 12 beans of Sour NL x NH; you've got to like the NH. I've got a Colombian Red Haze (Colombian Red x Neville's Haze) brewing outside as we speak.

I'm looking forward to your log and seeing those mighty fine beans break through the soil to stretch out their cotyledons! I'd wish you good luck, but know you don't need it! Have a great weekend, amigo! Aloha

7 out of 12 seeds have popped.

Well let me rephrase that, all seeds have cracked open and 7 out of 12 have a tiny bit of their taproot exposed. These will probably all be ready to transfer into their rapid rooters by tomorrow morning.

So here are the specs of this grow:

• 11-12 Plants/seeds
  

• 400 Watt MH @ 7200K (vegging)
  

• 600 or 1000 Watt HPS (for Flowering, haven't decided yet.)
  
• 1 6" 424 CFM inline fan with carbon filter for Veg area, Hooked up through a cooltube with one end open so it is exhausting both the light and the area. Exhausting through a carbon filter

• 2 6" 424 CFM inline fans for Flower area. 1 dedicated to a completely enclose Cooltube, and the other exhausting the entire room through a carbon filter.
  
• Distilled Water at 5.8 - 5.9 PH (for the first 3 weeks of veg I will be using tap water. Distilled water is too hard to PH without first adding CalMag, which contains nutes, or something to kind of buffer the PHdown.)
  
• Canna COCO plant medium
  
• Canna CoCo A/B nute set (Veg/Flower)
  
• Canna PK 13-14 booster
  
• CalMag+
  
• Canna Boost (this seems to be pretty much like using Sweet to me. Since I'm going all Canna products this time around I think I'll use their version of 'Sweet')

For Plant/root health:

• Canna Rhizotonic
  
• Cannazym

Tools:

• Thermometer/Hygrometer
  
• EC/PPM meter
  
• PH Meter

Here is a pic of 9 seeds that popped and showed their tap roots. I put them in rapid rooters that have been soaking in water ph'd at 5.9 and then covered the holes up top with a little bit of Canna COCO. This is to help keep the tap root humid and to help prevent the rapid rooter from drying out so quickly

They are under 3 CFL's for now and will will probably remain there the first 3-6 days or so after they break soil. After which I will put them under the MH lighting.
