My first grow.. Closet, 400w HPS, a couple clones, and a couple seeds...

Are you talking the coconut soil? I read a little about that, I might have to look into it further for next time...

Going on day 5 of 12/12 cycle. All are looking great. The MK is really starting to bush a bit.. The NL have some looooong pistils shooting out. Lookin good! No new pics, maybe tomorrow morning I'll grab a few.

Wow lots of Colas How many times did you top/fim?

[Potberto]

I'm hopin so

The FD just grew crazy like that. It must have 30-40 potential bud sites. I did FIM one branch just to try, now there's three in it's spot..

The Master Kush I really only LST'd. All the shoots coming up are from that. I did FIM one node, but it only split in to two.

They're definitely healthy!

If you have to transplant any of them upwards, just do it into coco. I did a log...

I continued the experiment and flowered those plants--one stayed in soil, the other in coco. The coco yield was about double, even though they were switched over rather late. :weedpoke:

And it's not soil. It's just shredded up coconut husks, kinda like rope fibers(?)... hard to describe. But virtually inert. You are basically growing in hydro--you use hydro nutes...

Did some reading - I see that... very interesting.. I need to find some of this shit ASAP!

If not, I'll definitely switch over for my next grow. I use the GH flora hydro nutes anyway so this should work..

I almost vaguely remembering a local hydro shop having the bix square bag of the stuff... I gotta go back and check.. Thanks for the tip!

I just get the Botanicare compressed bricks. It's the least economical way but it's sure convenient--just add water to expand the bricks. Just know, some other brands contain salt and have to be flushed before use. Never did it with the B.care. :thumbsup:

Day 6 of budding.. Took some pics this morning before they all went back to sleep

First though here's the two baby Butterscotch Hawaiian x G13 skunks. They're both 19 days since they popped soil. Do they look about on par?




Couple forming buds on the Master Kush plant:




Nice long pistils on the Northern Lights:



And the garden:



That's all for now!

Small update with a couple pics.. Flowering day 11 of my personal medical grow.


The Frisian Dew:



The Master Kush:



And the Northern Berry x Blueberry (I call it Berry Blue )



And the garden:



Well within the legal limit of budding girls! Isn't life grand..

[DreadedHermie]

Looking good...:greenthumb:

Are the Frisian cuts rooted yet? I was curious if you'd used any anti-wilt, rooting compound, humidity dome, etc. :weedpoke:
