PeakseedsBC Blueberry Grow Log

[Italiano715]

Hello and welcome everybody to my 2nd grow log of some blueberry I just received yesterday on 4/20 (<~~~it was meant to be) I only germinated 2 to start out with considering that these are supposed to be fert. sensitive and also I only had 2 peat pods left So it will suffice for now!! But I placed the seeds in the pods yesterday around 3pm and the following day they had already sprung a tap root (I sneaked a peek ) and I'm assuming they will be up out of the dirt by tomorrow or the following day.

For this grow, I will be using some garden soil I purchased at Lowe's. I choose this because I can't find the good s*** (fox farm) where I live so I just got what I thought would be best, plus it doesn't have the time release fertilizer like all the rest had (MG soils).

The lighting I will be using for now will be 6 daylight CFL's (26W) in a rubber made container that I used in my last grow to start my plants. Also I will be running a mini oscillating fan (really powerful to be so small) for circulation.

For this grow I will LST both these plants and then take a clone from each plant when it gets around 2 months of veg to determine sex. I will also be using MG fertilizer again, but I will be using it VERY SPARINGLY(i know nobody recommends it, but that's all I can afford right now)! I will have to take a page out of headshakes "ghetto grow" and work with what I got! Also I will be using molasses the whole grow this time along with superthrive to go along with when I fert.

Everyone stay tuned to this log as when it's all said and done I will have some blueberry goodness and some bud porn for everybody to drool over :stoned: LoL and just for the record for those who may think that statement was cocky, all I have to say is I'm confident in everything I do and believe in my skills So put on your seatbelt, sit tight, if your a female hold on to your TaTas and enjoy the 4 month ride!

~Peace~Love~Happiness~

Alright a little update. Out of the 2 original blueberry I had started only one grew out of the dirt. The other one sprung a tap root but never did anything more than that! So with that being said I germinated another one and it's popped and starting it's first set of leaves. As for the other original one it's starting it's second set of leaves.
I've been having a bit of a problem with heat going up to and excess of 90 degrees some parts of the day. It has been making me want to go get a portable ac for the closet. Does anybody have any idea what level of BTU I may need and how much one may run?

I wouldn't think that you'd need anything very powerful @ all (I'm trying to recall your dimensions). the one thing I would look for is something with a really good thermostat. my other concern would be humidity, since ac units remove water from the air. but from the info. I got here, low humidity is better than excess. I was thinking about the same thing the other day, it was hot as hell and my temp hit 93. I was freaking out!

Congrats on the newborn!:thumbsup: looking forward to they're future! I need a small ac unit as well... not for the heat, the high output canfan takes care of that but I have a humidity problem It's too high! The gauge i have says it's at 64%..goes higher when it rains obviously. Dehumidifier works great on humidity but like everyone knows.. the heat goes WAY up. Have to work this out soon.

My closet is about 4ft X 2ft.....I'm not really worried too much about humidity as I can raise that just by putting a bucket of water in the grow room. I'm just more concerned about controlling temps when I get to the flowering phase...The veg stage can take a little more heat, but the flowering phase is going to be hell because I'm not trying to have airy buds. Like everyone else, I want huge dense buds! Well I'll take dense buds at least :jointsmile:

Thank you my friend...I'm sorry I haven't been able to get any pics up yet as my camera is out of commission right now, so I will be getting a new one in the following week to come! I will def. be keeping people updated though with any situation I may come across until the camera's here. So everybody bare with me please!

Alright everyone well I just wanted to update a little bit on the status of the BB. As I was looking at them today, I was inspecting to make sure no bugs were around or on them. So, as I was getting ready to look at the under side of the leaves I thought there was something wrong. I picked up one of them and looked at it close and just realized that the complete underside of all the leaves are a deep purple as the topsides are green. At first seeing it I wasn't sure what to think, but as I got to really see the color I just smiled from ear to ear realizing that I may have a purple plant in the near future. I was always itching to get on some type of purple pheno plant and my dreams may have come true (Knock on wood).

Also I went ahead and started 2 more seedling about 2 days ago and one so far is about to break through so it will probably be ready to go in soil in about 3 to 4 days.

I'm still having a bit of heat problems as the temps fluctuate between 78-85. So I just got a fan blowing directly on them until I can control these temps! Luckily it has been really hot where I reside and I've been running the AC a lot so it's been helping. Even with the temps being that high at some times they don't look like they are really having problems as of yet so I'm thankful to that! :smokin:

Otherwise, everything is OK as of now and I WILL be getting a camera SOON! Sorry, money just hasn't been right yet!
