Some guys are really good at Journaling their grow. Then you have dudes like me that just picture dump and bs through most of mine.
Either way its up to the individuals style and what you want to accomplish with it.
Can't wait to see what you get going man, good luck!
Don't expect much. I just figured out the reason my germ mat wasn't getting hot is because it was not plugged into the thermostat thingy. Opps. My beans have been ~70F for a couple of days. Not a good start. Have to see what happens.

Ok so I guess I've been doing this all wrong. Went and looked at some of y'alls diaries and I'm like throwing random shit up while you guys are like tracking stages of the grow and getting all scientificky with it. Call them pieces of shit or whatever but I have a couple of viparspectra P2020 or 2000 or something and some supplemental chinese blurples. I figure between two substandard pieces of shit running next to each other one will give me what the other won't or something hopefully close to a decent light spectrum. Moving them to a larger space to set up for the seeds that are germing. I guess I'll start throwing down a diary like the rest of the world as soon as I get something to take pics of like popped beans.
Hahaha apparently you haven't visited my journal yet...actual documentation is sparse at best

Ok well now that I have the germination mat actually plugged into the thermostat thing and the seeds have been on them for an entire day there is actual progress. Looks like all 3 of the 3Thirteen seeds popped tails out and some of the others are doing the same. Might have to drop some more. (damn) (not) Love poppin beans.

I guess tomorrow I'll take some pics of the rescue project. Got 5 plants that I tried to grow out in too small containers in a micro grow. They got nute locked and honestly thought they were goners. Transplanted them into 5 gal grow bags, hit them with a strong dose of clonex and cal/mag only. Let the bags dry out completely to the point of just the beginning of wilt. And then fed through normal nutes (900PPM/6.3). Run off was 6.5. Fuck it. I'll take it. The semi-flush did the deal. Bonk. Greened back up. The damage to the fans was knarly ugly. But the new growth is good with a slight slight tip burn. Back down to 800 PPM.

And once these seeds are actually planted then I can make a proper grow thing.

Ok this is just a random auto plant that I sprouted from seed. Buddy of mine is doing some weird shit with Kush x Everything auto. He's not a breeder but he likes to put shit together. So this is some "Shit He Put Together" weed. It's about 6ft tall and JUUUUUUUST getting into the bud. Sorry about the suck ass pics but I'm doing my best. I got pics of the developing cola and a close up of one of the buds that's just starting to spit some frost. I have no doubt it's going to be decent weed. Just have no idea what its true lineage is lol. 20201015_094124.jpg

And these are some of the indoor plants that I had to do some med recovery on so outdoors they go! This is about a week after up potting them. I left the damaged leaves on in case the issue wasn't all the way fixed. Anyway one is a Lemon Skunk and the other is a Girl Scout Cookie. Kind of wish the buds showed up better. They are pretty good in size compared to the micro size of the plants :)

Ok all you pro growers... don't get all scientificky on me. I anticipate a multitude of issues because of stupid human tricks (mine). Maybe we should put this under the comedy thread. But here goes. Old dog. New tricks.

Since Mr @HydroRed is here, it's pretty cool to be able to run the beans from the man's machine right here under his roof. That's some crazy shit right there. Sorry still getting used to that. Nothing like some pressure :p

I didn't take pics of all of these but am happy to report that all three of the 3Thirteen Sin City Juice seeds that I put down popped. And that's what this pic is.

Bubba Gump was a no show. I still have the seeds on the mat (paper towel/baggie). But so far, no pop. But what did show is Sin City Juice, OG Cake, LA Confidential, Astro Kush, Chem Dog #4. My wife sent me a "Congratulations! You just planted yourself out of inside flowering space!" text trying to be cute when she saw the new seedling trays. So I ordered another light and sent her a screenshot. Problem solved.

I'm running just generic garden soil from a local supplier. No additives/ferts except perlite. Not sure what nute line I'm running these with yet. Soil got dosed with seedling strength clonex before those tap roots got planted. They've been lightly misted and now they are under the lights. Fingers crossed. I hate this part.

Shit my bad. Forgot to update. It was confirmed that @CataractJack and Mhippie are one in the same. We don’t believe any of the members are at risk, but if you have open transactions with this individual or any other concerns, feel free to PM me directly.

To be clear, despite the apparent dishonest behavior, we have left the door open for Mhippie to continue posting under his original account. While I personally am not happy with this revelation, I think it’s important that we leave the light on for everybody, in my personal opinion redemption can and should be available to anyone who seeks it out, provided the party in question hasn’t crossed the line, in which I don’t not feel this way in this particular case.

In closing, thank you for the guys that are watching our backs during the times we are afk. That’s the only way this thing works. We have to keep each other honest.

Back to the bud porn.
