Hi Everyone, just wanted to introduce myself and say im very excited about my first grow. Been wanting to do this for all my life finally get a chance to do it. So I have to say i am very impressed with attitude. ordered Super Lemon Haze(SLH) and they arrived within 5 days. got the kandy kush(KK) and the cole train(CT) as freebies as well.

I decided to attempt germinating only 2 of the SLH as i figured if i screw this up i wont kill my entire collection. Scarified both seeds then put them in a shot glass of h20 for about 18 hours. the roots came out today :clap: and i put them in my germination station in rapid rooters. Started the heat mat and put the 2" dome on them.

I will be using an ebb n grow hydroponic system with 1000w hps w/electronic ballast for flowering. will use a t5 8 bulb setup for my veg room with fearless 2x4 tray. will stagger seeds every month till i can get a nice cycle going. I feel like i already caught the bug!​

Seeds are growing very good. My twins are almost touching the top of the 2" dome. Cotyledon is trying to come out. seeds still on the plant but look like they are about to fall off. will get a bigger dome tomorrow as they are running out of room and was thinking about getting a 24" t5 for just the seeds. I actually started the grow on October 21st but put it in wrong section. am transferring now.

since the 21st of october i bought a 7" dome for the girls and a thermostat for the heating mat which has helped keep the bottom of the germination station temp at 78-80 F. mixed a solution of olivias clonex solution and superthrive for the girls seems to be working great. Also went and bought a nice 1 bulb T5 with stand to light the girls. currently on a 24 hour light cycle.

decided to scarify 2 more SLH and my free Cole Train (CT) on Nov 7. both the SLH germinated but the CT has not yet. put the SLH in rapid rooters and put in germination station. after 3 days 1 of the SLH has stopped growing dont know why. other one is doing good. will put up pics later today.

forgot woke up to disaster this morning my SLH #1-3 had all showed sever signs of underwatering. #2 SLH was completely fallen over. #1 had very droopy top and #3 had droopy top as well. i had been trying to keep watering low as i originally over watered #2 SLH and shes still recovering. But now i realized that after almost 3 weeks #1 and #2 are drinking more water. birth dates #1 #2 SLH 10-19 #3 SLH 10-29 #4 #5 SLH 11-7. #1 SLH is a very strong girl will most likely be my mother if i don't kill the poor girl. #3 SLH also very strong but has not recovered as fast as #1 from the under watering. wait just looked at her and she is feeling better. Also took off the humidity dome figured they could probably use some fresh air.

checked my attitude order seems my next batch of seeds are here. I got the barneys farm LSD. will start that grow DEC. i am shooting to harvest one batch a month and will try different strains till i find that perfect mix. was thinking about starting the other freebie i got Kandy Kush (KK) because the CT seems like its a dud.

man just built my new aeroponic veg unit and cloner. Got to give stinkbud some love on that thanks SB. Anyways went heavy duty on all the parts 3" net pots with HD Neoprene disks 27 gal res + HD Pump. Will have this new setup working tomorrow night. Bought my new T5 8 bulb should have pics up when i can borrow a camera. The girls are doing good i know SLH #1-3 are dying to get in the veg unit. they are about a week and a half late but was tight on cash. Had to do it right. Will start germinating my last KK.

germinated a KK and 1 barneys farm LSD(LSD). figured i would give it a head start so in 2 months i can start with the clones as well. Veg unit will be up and running today with cloner to follow next couple days.

nice the KK i started germinating already has a root sprouting, very small but still much better than the CT. the LSD is just a monster seed i started germinating about 12 hours after the KK. Bought the last of the pieces for the veg unit last night will be fully operational in about 3 hours.

SLH #2 is starting to kick ass, the weakly little girl is now the big girl on the block. Im noticing little pistils growing out on SLH #1-3. #2 has the biggest pistils and the most green. Veg unit has been drying about to go and turn it on. Iv noticed last couple days i get this really dank wonderful smell when i open the door. they smell so great. i should bottle that up and sell just the smell.

lots of work to get this veg and clone aeroponic unit up and running. Had to just accept the fact i would have to pay $80 for a plastic recycle timer. however my guy had one for $68 so not as bad. decided to buy a couple cans of paint to paint my lids black and then white. waiting for the paint to dry before getting them up and running. My KK is already growing well stem is looking good. SLH #2 is looking amazing. SLH #1 is starting to have the very bottom leaves dry out dont know why but she should be in her new home tomorrow sometime. The LSD seed still hasnt done shit. also the CT hasnt moved as well??????? so out of the 7 seeds i germinated 2 havnt popped yet, 1 i almost killed by not being on top of my watering and the other 4 are looking great. was thinking about germinating another LSD.

finally got veg unit completely done. installed 8 bulb t5 and put veg unit under. still need a pump for the cloner. Also ran a rubber weather stripping around edge of strong box, works great absolutely no leaks. you have to be careful though because if you get the rubber in the way of the box holes it wont shut all the way. mixed up my solution and put in veg unit. will let pump work for about an hour or so to thoroughly mix the nutes and let water temp get up a bit then will introduce SLH #3 into system as guinea pig. if she lives then rest of SLH will go in veg unit except for SLH #4. by the way KK is doing very well and growing strong, looks like a winner. LSD still no action, huh????

mixed my solution poured into veg unit and then adjusted ph. original ph was 6.4 made the ph mix then added ph - but i put in way too much took ph to 3.7. lol. when my guy at the hydro shop said take it easy he wasnt kidding. now i know why when you buy the ph formulas make sure to get both ph - and ph +. took about 10 hours to finally adjust to 5.8. gonna transplant SLH #1 into veg unit see how she does. wish me luck!!!
