Equipment and materials I use to grow

in #howtogrow7 years ago (edited)

Hello friends of cannabis,

I like many of you love to grow, breed, smoke, eat, and enjoy cannabis. I like to grow all kinds of cannabis. I currently have 3 tents. The first tent is two and a half by two and a half by six. This is my veg tent seedlings clones also go in this tent. (Picture of tent will go here)

This tent uses two 40 watt LED lights. The true watts is 40 .each light puts out 165 watts.(pic of lights here)

The next tent is 4 by 4 by 8. This is my flower tent. (Tent pic here)

I have a 600 watt dimmable ballast cool tube in the flower tent. Picture of the light will go here

And my third tape is my drying tent / male keeper.
Groging style:
I love to start from seed. Not to say that I don't use clones. But I don't get clones from anyone else except my land plants. Too high of a risk for bugs.
I started out by putting a seed in a shot glass of water until the Taproot shows.20170413_000042.jpg

Once the Taproot shows I put it in a Solo Cup for the first month of its life into the veg tent.20170905_080953.jpg

after the first 4 weeks. I put the Solo Cup into the flower tip to sex it. Once we know it's male or female I will transplant into a 1 gallon pots and put it back into the vrg tent. Please be aware it takes two weeks after you put it into the flower tent to show its sex and two weeks to reveg.

At this point in time your plant should now be 3months old the first month was in the Solo Cup the second would be sexing and flipping it back into veg. After you flipped it back in the veg you should have transplanted it into the one gallon and will leave it in the veg tent for one more month before we transplanted into either a 5 gallon or 10 gallon container and put it in the flower tent.20170713_201141.jpg

Watering cycle
I water my plants every 3 days depending on how dry the soil is. On day one I feed nutrients on day 3 I feed only water on day 6 I feed nutrients and repeat until the cycle is complete or you harvest your plants I personally do not believe in Flushing my plants I have not seen a difference between flushing and not flushing. But this is my personal opinion I also grow a couple of different methods LST which is low stress training, super cropping scrogging and femi all all Incorporated in my grow.
Please like share passing on happy smoking happy growing

Nice Writeup :)

I like how you explained sexing, time necessary and the individual steps you took. :) Cannabis is an amazing plant to watch grow and mature.

Have You Experienced High CBD

strains yet? If not, you're in for a treat. :)

Do you think I left anything out . Thanks for the reply. I will put pictures of the lights and tents when I get home.

Your blog post is very thorough. Cannabis cultivation is such a complex subject, I doubt we could ever put out all the details we want. ;)

What has been the main focus of your breeding? Creating seeds to preserve genetics, crossing to build new genetics or both?

New genetis and to preserve the old ones

Yes I have . And as of right now I have 125 different strains. 5 of those I crossed my self.
