new surroundings grow log Afghan Kush Crosses

Post by roller24 »

Just some pics to show my setup in my new flat.
The seedlings just sprouted are Crosses of Afghan Kush and a C99/Ogre The tub has one female Kush seeds, and the sauce pan has seeds from a second female.
I added a second inline bulb fan and the cabinet temps have significantly dropped from the previous setup.
I also will be able to provide AC this summer to help with high temps.
Fairly quiet, about as noisy as a bathroom fan, and fairly stealth when the lite is off.
I'll deal with odors when I smell them.
I also provided some energy efficient curtains from a walmart. :toker1: they block 99% of light

THe second closet will be my veg space. with 9 cfl bulbs in an old file drawer hangin from some bait bucket rope. :roflmao:
The two clones are from the AK moms (in soil) and will be reseeded if any seeds are male.
I would like to keep crossing back into the kush moms to stabalize the genetics, (I kno little of this science)

The 3 girls in the white cab are just being flowered out to make room, for the new plants. They are a sweet tooth, and a c99, and an ak clone.

400 watts HPS
The seeds are up and growing!
The c99 x ogre nicknamed FIONA was in my opinion the best cross of M's ogre line.
I hope to get an exceptional plant.
The Afghan Kush seeds were radiated and only 2 popped but they are very hardy, as I have basically put them through hell, and they have been near death more than once, but have managed to survive.
I have yet to grow them out fully sensimillia, but the two in the closet will be flowered out after a few more weeks of veg. I already took two clones for seeding.

That's cocofiber, I was out of rockwool cubes and had a coco liner, so I ripped it up, cut it up and threw in some sprouts.
I also lowered the light they seemd to be reaching a bit much

It's time to get the sprouts up and running under the big lite, so Ive switched the locales of my chopsticks and my new AK cross sprouts.
Ive had some problems with roots invading my pump, so I decided to try a coco liner in each of the pots to alleviate this and also retain moisture at the pot bottom.
I believe the pictures will explain the entire process, the reason the pots are not the same is because I ran out of grow rocks and had to supplement some coco fiber to finish.
This set up should also keep the roots from laying in the rez and enable some hempy bucket type relief for the roots.

Im using a stiff black landscaping tube as opposed to the soft tubes Ive used in the past
I heated them and bent them to accommodate each pot, with some gutter like disbursements at ground level.
Im sure to re-engineer that when I have some time.
