Ok, so this is my first grow log and I'm honestly doing it more for the possibility of getting help when things start turning bad (which they most likely will, because its me). Here's the story, through a vast amount of help from LOC NAR, WeedHound, and Tinytoon I've started some supposed AK-47 seeds I recieved from a friend. I am going to follow these guys advice and see how things turn out this time. This is my fourth grow attempt and the last 3 were utter failures with the plants dying before I could get a harvest.

Ok, on to the specifics...My system is Ebb and Flow (Flood/Drain) made by Botanicare. I will be using Ionic Grow, Ionic Bloom, CalMag, and Ionic Boost. I will also be adding 2ml/gal. H202 every other day during the Grow cycle and I may or maynot purchase a ZYME product prior to bloom. I'm not trying to add too many variables into this grow right now. I just want to get a full grow from seed to harvest and once I do that my next grows will get more fancy. I'm using a x8 T5 ballast. I'll be using x8 T5 MH during Grow and then swapping over to x4 T5 MH and x4 T5 HPS during the first week of the bloom cycle.

My tap water is [email protected]. I do not have a RO filter and do not plan on using RO or distilled water for this particular grow. I'm trying to push this out before it gets too warm outside and I can't afford a RO filter right now. Once the fall rolls around I will be using a RO filter from that point forward.

My lighting schedule is as follows:
Grow Cycle: 18on/6off - 5PM-11AM
Bloom Cycle: 12on/12off - 8PM-8AM

I have started out with using [email protected] Ionic Grow and [email protected] CalMag with an overall ppm of [email protected]. I also added 2ml/gal. H202. I have a 40gallon resv. but have only filled it to 30gallons so that I have some wiggle room when topping off throughout every two weeks when I change the water.

Last but not least, are the first pictures after I transplanted them on 4/04/2009: :hippy:
