Mi5 and LR2 for a project/ smoke. Auto lemon haze from mjseedsnl- see what happens, and auto ak47 from the same.

After this grow- if either of the mi5 or lr2 are males- ill scrog an NYC diesel in there and pollinate a couple buds. I have another strain that I want to make semi-auto and really really hard to the cold. It is outside in a shed- where i can partially control the environment Silver pearl x flo. It'll get mi5 dust too. Or I'll screw all this up and be pulling out my hair and buying bags... Hahaha.

That looks stealthy, what are the internal dimensions of that cupboard? If you don't mind me asking. And what lighting you using I there? Good luck with your project man.

 

[Coolbreeze]

The internal dimensions are 30.5"x22. With the floor in I have 19" from the top of my pots to the 260- 320 watts of cfl. If I remove the false floor I get another 20". The lights are arrayed in an outdoor fixture that allows me to swivel or angle them. But not lower them. I am building a frame ala Andy botwin which will allow me to distribute my light a little more evenly as well as raise and lower it. Whichll beat stacking stuff under pots.

I use happy frog ferts, just the regular organic stuff from the nursery. I have a 55 gallon aquarium that is my water source- though currently my water needs have begun to stretch my capacity for keeping healthy living water available at the proper ph. Tap water is quite basic here. So I will be adding an additional peat layer tothe filtration system on the aquarium to Get my ph back to 6.5-6.7. If the fish look unhappy in the tank- the garden will be following them down the road to woe shortly. Canary in a cage...

My soil is sphagnum moss, perlite , composted veggie matter and composted cow and chicken manure. Perlite and dolomite.

Haha. There are four pc fans in there. Withall running I can here the timer in the room. Not the fans. Hahaha. It is quite stealthy. I'm getting a digital timer.

 

[Coolbreeze]

Oops

 

[ThisIsHowItGoes]

I'm getting a digital timer.

Silent and stays correct. My last segmental timer managed to change it's 'on time' slightly each day - after two weeks it was an hour out!

Ugly. My photos that are "partially outdoor" are doing fine- all things considered- it was supposed to be a stressful grow- as stressful as possibble and still produce.

The young autos are all doing pretty well.

I'm in the habit of thinking of dolomite lime in my soil is to keep it from getting too acidic. But it also helps buffer from getting basic just as well. I would like my ingoing water to be correct or way closer to it- but... I'm gonna ride this out for a while, have some faith in my soil and see how she goes. If issues begin to develop ill begin adjusting with lemon juice when I water.


Oh- and if that plants don't complain about the water I'll put African cichlids in the aquarium. They love that high ph. Haha.

 

[Coolbreeze]

This is the first protestor.

Cal/mag lockout due to high ph? So, we start lemon juicing the water for the garden- While the damn aquarium is out of whack.

 

[Coolbreeze]

Keep on truckin.
So- the PH isn't killing me- though the mi5 is definitely not digging it. Everything else is doing ok. Actually- I guess it's really all doing ok. One mi5 is struggling- one responded really well to its additional watering with phd water. I'll continue addressing the ph slowly.

Got some early stretch from
A couple of these that we're sprouted on a window sill. But they seem ok now. Node spacing seems alright. 2 females. No males yet

Both mi5 are putting on new untwisted/ deformed growth. Although they still show signs of high ph.

I hope I have a couple males to pull out of that cabinet. Or I'm gonna be lsting like crazy trying to get light where it belongs. Haha
