Trainwreck x Kush

[kasgrow]

I decided I would finally start a grow journal. I am a long time grower but have never taken the time to document a grow before.


Bag seed from medical bud
I have grown this seed before so I know they grow nice plants.
They have been in the fridge for about 2 years.


Three seeds in plain water adjusted ph of 6.1 in a harvey's glass (don't tell them) I have left enough $ in their slot machines anyways.
01/07/08




Covered glass with a paper towel and placed on a shelf above a 250 watt metal halide( yeah I know dangerous but it works).


Seeds cracked and two showed tails on 01/09/08 so I placed them in these cubes. I am not sure what hey are made of because they were a free sample a year ago from my hydro store. I have never used them before so I thought I would give them a try. Later the plants will go into dwc.


Seeds tucked in and watered under 250 watt metal halide. I didn't want the them to get lonely so put them near my girls.

Everything sounds great. Here's some GREEN MOJO to get them babies going. :aok:

I have wanted to see trainwreck grown out for a while. Good luck, I'll be watching.

 

[kasgrow]

Thank you all for the green mojo.
As you can see it is working.






One seed poked it's head up and another is about to.

Two seedlings left of the three.
The third one had tied itself in a knot.
Being the caring dad I am I tried to untie it but only managed to tear it's poor head off, oops.
I decided to try a little experiment with the two remaining seedlings.



Here are the babies before I mess with them.


I decided to take the cubes off of the seedlings.


Close up of roots.


Seedling in large 2" neoprene insert.


The smaller seedling was too small to use a large insert so I put it in
a small 2" insert from my cloner. Here are the two inserts side by side.


The larger seedling in dwc with some other seedlings.


The smaller seedling in my aero cloner alongside 10 day old aurora indica clones.


My veg and mom area.
The dwc has 250 watt metal halide 12" above it.
The aero cloner has two 24" flouro tubes laying directly on the dome. 6" above seedling. I only have the dome on to hold the light. I leave it on until the clones touch the top and then take them out. They will go into flower in a flood and drain sog under 1000 watt metal halide. When the seedling is large enough I will put it in dwc. I want to see if the smaller seedling grows faster than the other in dwc.

Here are the two seedlings one week later.
The one on the left was the smaller one put into the aero cloner.
The one on the right was larger to begin with and put in dwc.








They seem to be growing at about the same pace.
I just put the smaller one in a larger insert and put in the same bucket as the other. They are both about a foot below a 250 watt mh.

ill be keeping an eye out for these babies. i cant wait to see them flower. I cant wait for my new seeds now.

i got seeded "cheese". what did you pay for that 3.5?

I paid about 45$ an eigth in hayward in o4. That co op and a bunch of others have been shut down since then. It was a good place to try out different strains without growing them out and for getting clones.

 

[kasgrow]

I finally got around to taking some more pictures. The smaller seedling is still a runt but doing good. Both plants have the light green color from the trainwreck.

 

[kasgrow]

The ph is now at 5.5
700 ppm

nice mee too, helping hands s.b. they got shut down, but re-opened same with a few others...

I took some update pics. Both plants are looking good but one is much larger than the other. The larger one looks like the trainwreck pheno with light green color. The small one looks more like a kush with darker color. Both of them have super tight internode spacing.
They have the tightest spacing I have seen in any plants. As soon as they are large enough I will be cloning them.


The larger of the two plants.


The smaller one.

The larger plant dwarfs the smaller one to the right.

The veg area is getting pretty full with a bunch of seedlings moving in.

 

[THE BROTHER'S GRUNT]

Whats up mang. Damn do these ladies grow fast. Maybe that's why they call it weed. Everything is looking great and your doing one hell of a nice job i must say. Keep it up as we all know it pays off in the end.

I finally got around to taking some pictures and posting. I have been busy building a new room for my girls in flower. The room is larger and insulated. I upgraded to a 1000 watt hps from a 600 hps. I will be using both soon. I put the larger plant into flowering after taking clones. The smaller plant is still in veg. Luckily the large plant is a female and a good looking one at that.


One month into flower and just changed to the new room with the 1000hps

Some wreckush daughters just transplanted from cloner to flower room.

Another shot of mom.

My future set up. Half soil and half hydro. I like to compare growth, flavor and yield. Later I may even try growing with 1000hps and 1000 mh. Now that I can seal my room I am planning on setting up some ac and co2 in the near future as the summer heats up. My room is a work in progress. I just got enough done to put the plants in sunday.
