Old Passion, New Journey

[greenmobster440]

It's been almost two decades since I've cracked a bean for a indoor gig. I'm legal now and jumping on that big green wave that's sweeping across the US. Ive been planning this for years in my head but didn't start gathering items till October this year as the issue 2 ramped up support. So here we go.

Please don't hesitate to post pics or info into this thread. It's how we all learn.

So here's what I have accumulated so far...

Hardware..
4x8
4x4
Adiding 300w
Adiding 480w
Szhlux 400w
6" Vivosun blower (vents both tents)
Carbon filter
3gal fabric pots
5gal buckets
Promix HP Myco..I added nothing
Govee Temp hygrometer
Govee 3l humidifier
Multiple fans and all the wiring, extensions, zip tie, ect.

Nutrients and Meter..
TPS Nutrients One
TPS CalMag
TPS Signal
Silica
Worm castings (foliar)
Ph down
H2o2
YinMik ppm, EC, pH

That's about it for gear. What am I growing?

Feminized
Paradise Seeds...LA Amnesia
Garden of Green... Chemdawg Millionaire Guava
G13 Labs...GigaBud

Automatics
420Fastbuds...Mixed Bag
I49 Seed...Devil Xxl


My grow space is my dining room. The two tents from a large 48sqft L shape. Saves me a little space. Big tent is for autos and the smaller one for fems or regs. The smaller one will sport a nice screen for its grows.

Kinda keep that tub in mind because as we move along here you will see it disappear. More later

Thanks for dropping in folks and thank you for the commens. This stuff is always more fun with others. I'm going to water some autos tomorrow. I'll wait to post a update and get caught up on here with current progress.
I made some butter yesterday. Swallowed a spoonful and chased with fudge. Mmmm. Three hours later I'm mesmerized uy this ******* elf that's been hanging in the corner for months. Never noticed before. So I made a meme of what I was seeing and hearing in my head..odd evening..lol

How about a Automatics Update

A short and sweet update. Nothing technical or out of the ordinary. If ya got questions about what I do please ask me. We may both learn something new. Anyways, a recap of Automatic strains I'm raising.

I49 Devil Xxl
420Fastbuds Mixed bag of Mystery. Not knowing makes it kinda fun.

The pots are all lite for the Devils so it's time to water again. Last watering was a week ago. They are coming along nicely so far on a 4 hour rest per night. . I wish I would have put more medium in their pots. Kinda settled on me.
Oldest plant in this group is 21days, Other three are 17, and 15days.
Lite nutrients tonight TPS One, CalMag, silica, 460ppm, pH down to 5.6.
Nothing fancy or eventful but I bet I see flowers soon. These autos are kinda cool. I don't expect much from them but it's pretty care free growing. Well, fems n Regs are pretty care free as well but no worry of light contamination with the autos. I need a balcony for summer..lol

The 4 Mixed bag beans from Fastbuds are up and growing. They appear to be doing fine. It'll be nice to have these ready just a few weeks or so after the Devils. They have no needs at the moment. Pots are still a bit heavy.
Definitely uneventful but I see a bright bushy future in these girls.

Who needs an Elf on s shelf. I want s snoop on a stoop.

Well it's time to update you all on my feminized grow. I have three going. Planted three and hoped for two...got three. Oh well, plenty of room for another.

They are all 30 days today
LA Amnesia
Gigabud
Chemdawg Millionaire Guava

These girls were in dwc about a week ago. I noticed my leaves were not reaching for the light as usual. Pretty green color but I know something was wrong. I'd been ramping up the LEDs and battling higher than normal res temps. I popped the lid off to find rotting roots. No bueno.
Instead of killing them I pulled them from the netpots and placed them in 5 gal buckets with Promix HP Myco. At the time I had one plant in a netpot and the other had two...yeah two girls in a cup action..
I damaged a lot of the root that was there pulling them out but had no real choice.
Well, as you can see they have survived and appear to be doing just fine. Won't be long and I can throw the screen in there and get busy with this grow. I won't be doing dwc again until I find a nice chiller.

 

[WeedHopper]

Looking good my friend.

 

[greenmobster440]

Looking good my friend.

Thanks brother, I'm doin my best not to kill em..lol Ive pushed the nutes to hard but they'll be okay.

 

[Jan Borrego]

Thank you Jan.

Added a few more ft of grow space. I won a nice mini greenhouse and a set of t5 2' lamps to mount inside. This little thing will hatch beans, root clones, and possibly maintain a small mama plant for cuttings. Not items for $19. I'm really liking the online auction here in Ohio.
Picked up this 16" wall mount oscillating fan. Holy crap this thing moves air. Won't need anymore fans in the big tent. Won the thing for $15. I see $300+ lamps on there all the time that go for less than half that. Good deals if your seeking.

It's gonna be a Charlie Brown Christmas this year. The expenses of getting this grow together has broken the bank. Oh well, the future is looking bright and green.

 

[greenmobster440]

The feminized girls have perked up even more. Threw the screen in there to get it out of the way. Not sure how I want to place these buckets yet..oh well I'll figure it out. Have to make up my mind. They will be in the screen in a few days.

That GigaBud has kicked out more burnt tips new growth. The others not so bad. They needed water last night so they got plain tap ph water. I'll feed them next time.

lol... My Fellow Brother!-)
I think you might have also started a touch before the 8th!-) lmao...

you know they haven't made it law ***YET***, so legally we can currently have 12, if there is more than just you in the house!

personally i wouldn't even bother to use the scrubber (filter) hell, it's legal now. and what better smell than Dank!?


your kids are looking very happy btw.... not your first rodeo either i'd say!-)
Merry Christmas

Hey brother, thanks for stopping in. 8th? I dunno what your talking about..

I can prob fill some jars before those idiots decide on anything. I'll dial things back after that. 6 plants is okay. I'll always have more preparing for the the next round but..is what it is.

Though it is legal I live in a apt complex. Even with filters I'm pretty sure it's going to smell. My tents are about ten feet from my front door. I just worry about people complaining and I do still want to stay low key with the growing.

Thank you my my, Ive made a few mistakes along the way but I kinda expected that. I'm having fun though.
