What's up Weednerds! So time to start a new grow. This time I hope to achieve more then last time. I think that is always the goal. Take the past mistakes, and correct them to not make future mistakes. Last grow I got Thrips. I waited a week before I actually made any effort to combat them. Then when I did decide to do anything, I had to wait an extra week before my pesticides came in the mail. Do not panic, my pesticide is organic! Another thing I did wrong, was compacting my soil, and I so did not cook it right. It was a Living Soil mix, and I so just fucked it up.
This round I will be going with what I know. Great organic pre made high quality potting soil. Then will be adding compost teas for feeding. Maybe will also look into some dry amendments as well. What ever I do, it will be organic. No salts, no chemical PGR's(performance growth enhancers). First rule to growing, is to keep it simple. Which I have kind of strayed from that the last grow. I think for the most part, it was due to rushing it, and starting before the first grow was even done! Big mistake.
So my current tent is 36 inches x 36 inches, and 60 inches high. It is not to shabby of a space. I fell I need more though. So I went out and bought a 48x48x80 VipraSpectra. Not only will I have a little more room, I will have more control over my environment.
I got a great deal on this 390 CFM inline fan, but hooking up in my smaller tent, it was just a tad to much, hence why I decided to buy the larger tent. But not only this, I will now be able to sit my 30 pint dehumidifier into the 4x4. As of now I have a 190CFM fan, with no control, and the dehumidifier sits on the outside of the intake, which has to work harder since it is also dehumidifying the whole room. But hey Jon, why are there 2 48x48's? Haha, thank you Amazon! Delivery incompetence gave me a win against the evil Jeff Bezos, ;)
Alright lets look at the goods
I will be popping two White Grape AUTOS, from BIF Beans, and 6 REG Banana Punch x Mac and Cheese from Santa Cruz Cannabis Co.
Alright, both of these high THC strains are special to me. For one, the ones from Santa Cruz Canna where purchased with half of the proceeds going to fire relief here in California. In fact he still has some deals going on, and half of profits will go to the fire Relief efforts. If you would like to help even more, there is going to be an online auction soon, with every elite genetics you can thing of! Just follow along here. I will also do an announcement when I learn of the date of this event.
The Autos from BIF Beans are special since they will be the first ever Autos I have ever ran. I am thinking of doing them in a #tetrapak. Also the guys of BIF Beans run a Discord, who are some cool guys. Still working on getting them to post here. Slowly but surely.
I keep my seeds in the fridge until it is time to crack, or pop, or what ever you want to call it. Then I place them in water to wake them up. I will germinate these, and if I have to will have the seedlings in my closet, but not for long. My current grow will be done in a few weeks. By that time I can set up my 4x4, and try to do better then last time. Be on the look out for an update on my current grow. The yield is not there, but the quality is! Which really that is what it is all about, besides having fun of course! Peace, and you all have a great week.
