Hello everyone! I'm back (didn't take long lol) for my 3rd indoor grow and 4th grow ever!

So far I've struggled with newbie mistakes and imroper lighting but this time I'm hopefully
gonna get this somewhat right. The official goal for this grow is 1 oz.

Strains for this grow will be

  • HSO Blue Dream auto
  • Dinafem Blue Kush autoflowering
  • Dinafem White Widow autoflowering

Cab changelog v3.0

-New lighting: Blackstar 100W
-Tray for the pots; no more plastic Ikea boxes or clumsy china, no more mess
-Three 1-liter size pots; three flavors and more maneuverability
-Air circulation; I liberated the good old Fractal Design R2 to serve its third new purpose, also swapped the 9V DC adapter for a smaller 12V that produces fraction of the heat (true story!)
-The extension block has been placed into a more convenient location and secured

Things in the kitchen will change too. I recently successfully made a batch of organic calcium supplement as well as some lactobacillus inoculant and flavor-enhancing fruit extract. I’m very excited to see how they work out. To anyone who’s interested, here’s how you make them:
Calcium supplement: http://theunconventionalfarmer.com/recipes/calphos/
Lactobacillus Serum: http://theunconventionalfarmer.com/recipes/lactobacillus-serum/
Fermented Fruit Juice: Leave bits of banana and pineapple with equal amount of brown sugar/molasses in a container with water in it for a week and run through a coffee filter.


HERE WE GO

Cab is operational


Pots are ready to go


Seeds are germinating


Exciting stuff!

Good luck on your grow.Pots are a little small so plant size might be smaller,but I'm sure you already no this.

I have been through only 4 grows myself, but for me pots seem too small as well. Are those 1L? I have been using 3L airpots, and I have a feeling that 5L would be way to go.
 
oooh, you didn't wait for summer to start the Blue Dream (me want lol) Subbed, and may 3 ladies soon flash their taproots at you!

Yeah, I decided I want a taste of the Blue Dream RIGHT NOW lol

So far only the Blue Kush has sprouted at the 24h mark and it's been about 42 hours now. I've always had seeds germinate within 48 hours so I'm just holding my breath out here"Hurry Up Mucker"
 
72 hours have passed but neither Blue Dream nor White Widow has germinated. I put them in separate containers with water. I have straight water in the other one and water with some hydrogen peroxide in the other. I'll give them 24 hours of soaking and another 24 hours of paper towel. If there are still no signs of germination after that, I'll get new seeds. I only have one Blue Dream auto so I'd have to swap it for my last Afghan Kush Ryder.

Oh, and Blue Kush which was planted after about 24 hours remains in the dirt. I would've preferred for them all to sprout at about the same time but hey, it's no big deal.

UPDATE: White Widow has cracked after just 5 hours in a cup of water. Coincidence? I don't... well, maybe. Fcuk I'm relieved!

Blue Kush finally decided to show up. She had the seed still attached to her so I removed it.

 
Super Cool! Love it! Bansai Buds! TaNg's Thang

EDIT:

Whoops....Bonsai. ;)

White Widow has now sprouted as well. Yay!



As for Blue Dream, it's been 6 days and I was getting ready to give up on the seed. As a last ditch effort I took a box cutter and punctured the seam where I thought the seed should naturally start cracking open. I can see the white embryo in there but whether I killed it or if it will indeed germinate now remains to be seen.



Maybe I should start storing my beans in the fridge...

UPDATE:
Holy shit. It actually worked lol. A few hours after surgery there's a taproot coming out. :yoinks: Go figure!
