well I started a Vision Blueberry Bliss when I started my Sweet Red Poison and didn't feel right journaling it on that thread so I'll keep this as a perpetual thread for any grows that don't have a section on the Seed breeders section.
so what I have is an Apollo Hort. 36x19x63 tent.i started with a DIY cab that worked well, but controlling the environment was sketchy at best. this tent fit right in the cab with small adjustments to the cab. I know, a tent in a cab. some are probably thinking "ol el sam is losing it" sorry to break it to you, but I lost it long ago LOL I need the extra stealth as the wife would freak if she knew!
for lights I have the Mars-Hydro 96x3 reflector model and a 135w TaoTronics ufo LED that I add when the plants get some height to them, at an angle so they get more light underneath
as for the blueberry, she was soaked till she cracked,about 24hrs, then straight into a 3gal filled with sunshine mix #4 with 20% perlite added. cant tell you about this soil as info,even on their site, is sparse. so I don't know what in it or if it has a pre-charge. looks like peat moss and perlite,light and airy right out the bag with 6.6 right at the bag with the A8 probe. and there is some big n chunky perlite out of the bag. any how, the BB really seems to like it.i didn't feed it nothing but PH water for the first 3 weeks. I fed her twice now with Dr.Earths Nitro Big organic liquid nutes mixed at 1/4 strength, 1 tblsp to 1/2 gal ph 6.5 or so water. 1st feed was 32oz and 4 days later she was dry and looking hungry so she got 48oz at 3/4 strength nitrobig,1 1/2 tblsp per 1/2 gal. so I'm all caught up with the BB. ijust added a Delicious Suger Black Rose in a 1 gal with FFHF.i was gifted a small bag from a friend so why not.
heres a few pics of them so far. I will say this, the BB is easy growing.a short ,wide gal she is! and the prices for the beans is rather reasonable to boot. the SBR was a freebie from Herbies
I added a pic of the red poison cuz I can and the color kicks ass! so welcome to my DoJo. comments, questions,advice and any input greatly appricated
happy growing:peace:

@Trap, I'm so digging the tent. nice,clean and orderly and easy to keep that way
@medi, I'm loving the way she's growing. only 13in tall but what I like the most, all the side branches have spread out to 18-20in and are only an inch or so shorter than the main stalk. looks almost scroggish with out the net. a very nice aesthetic.
thanks for stopping by fellas. I'm going to get some pics up in a day or 2
 
day 33 BB day 10?SBR

my inline fan crapped out already! started squeaking real loud and that is a problem. going to send back, but now I'm back to the DIY bathroom fan box.008.jpg unfortunately this doesn't work with the speed controller but temps are steady so no biggie. I rebuilt the box and now its airtight, which is good as the BB is getting stinky already. smells very skunky :D.gave her 48oz of ph 6.5 water on Saturday. she's 13in tall and 18-20 wide. looks like a scrog almost. very healthy girl.
