Hi all
There’s not many diaries on the go at the moment so I thought I would share the new developments in my grow room with you.
I’ve been enjoying all my growing so far, but I still can’t make my harvest last from one grow to the next. With all that good quality weed and a family full of pot heads it doesn’t seem to last very long!
I really want to sort myself out a continuous supply and for that I need a separate growing area to clone and veg my babies.
So here it is.
It’s a bit scrappy and could do with a coat of paint. But I will get that done soon. I had to have it ready now as I have babies to put in it. What you can’t see is a board with fittings for 4 cfls mounted behind the middle joist. This will give me some control over the intensity of light and also how high up it is (top socket is about 8” above the bottom socket). There’s also a wee PC fan for air movement and a shower fan pumping in fresh air from outside.
I’ve just received and germinated 5 Northern Light seeds from the Vault.
Here they are enjoying some sun before going into their new home.
Here’s the plan. Anybody who has followed any of my other diaries will know that this is likely to change as we move forward. ;-)
I’m going to veg out all 5 of these girls until I have at least 2 rooted clones from each one. I will then flower them and select the best one so that I can keep the clones as new mother plants. I will be looking mostly for potency but am also interested to see if any one is a bit quicker than her sisters.
My recent cloning success has gone from near on 100% down to pretty shit, so I have been researching cloning like mad and will have to try harder.
Once the mother has been selected I will flower out all the other clones, keeping just one or two of the selected ones as the new mothers. After that am not sure if I want to keep permanent mothers or try a Just in Time system. We will see.
Anyway. I put the girls in their new home and checked them a day later and they seem very happy. It was a wee bit cold in there so I have put a greenhouse heater in with them.
Here they are.
This will not be their permanent home. Once the monster I am waiting for in the flowering tent has finished they can go in there under the LEDs where they will veg better. The new room will then be used for the clones, vegging plants and mothers when they become available.
