A Train Wreck Diary.

Oh shit! I really gotta try Germinating in rock wool 

These were taken after I got back from the expo, Day 19!

very interested in seeing how this goes. It could be the way I do a future crop.

I really gotta start a hydro grow... Plumbing and growing Cannabis come on! sounds perfect for me. Very satisfy to see those roots.

Man I'm really getting excited for this summer. Once I get my license worked out, my parents are being awesome and leaving a corner of land for me to build a grow on. There is a small shed I think I'm going to fix it up and do a RDWC system or a aeroponics setup (I have a image in my head of having the root structure behind glass with a wood door to block light but you just have to swing it open to get a good view in on the system. Going to visit them this week and take measurements to start my planning!!

Also have more pics to post here, will update later this evening!

Captain 2.0! I want pictures of the new soon to be headquarters 🙂 

Day 23

Couple days from hitting week 3 of feeding, she is growing fast!!. 

Day 24

Pics without purple in them!

she is definitely growing fast!

Day 31 she has responded well to the defoliation and flipping to bloom nutes.

Younger then my oldest and twice the size!

lol yeah, well the info on them said they were a quick grow. My aim is for 1 maybe 2 oz of denser buds!

Day 38

Height's per week: 

W1 - 2" / W2 - 4.5" / W3 - 8" / W4 - 15" / W5 - 23"

Notes on lighting: Lighting was a issue for me for the first 3 weeks, I had no timer and my work schedule has been all over the place. So this got 18-6 for the bulk of the grow so far. It did get 1 full week of 24hr lighting as well. I now have a mechanical timer and everything is on a 18-6 cycle.

Defoliation: I have been much more aggressive with my defoliation over last grow. Keeping bud sites exposed to light is my main objective. 

Training: I have opted to go with no training other then defoliation.

Nutes: The nutrients I won on Instagram from a company based in Toronto. These are really working out well!

Using a 5 gal DWC bucket.

Feed per 7 day week:

1. 3.5ml of Parts A+B (Recommended amount is 1ml per gal for seedlings, I always go less)
2. 9ml Each A+B
3. 22ml Each A+B
4. 45ml Each A+B
5. 50ml Each A+B (Addition of 12ml each, mid week) 

The first 2 weeks did see some deficiency happening, this was due to my running it on light nutrients. Once I increased it's feed I have not seen it happen since.

How is the grow going? Any new pics 🙂
