Strains:
-From seeds found in cannabis from the only local medical dispensary.
6x Cheeseberry
1x Hawaiian Haze
1x Louie XIII
1x ??? (It's female though)
3x Sour OG
1x Darkstar

Don't know if I'll keep any of these indoors, I might possibly place them outdoors to flower. My main concern is I don't know what the sex is of the plants and altogether the quality was inferior but I planned on growing them as a comparative strain to the dispensary down here ( I found all these seeds and more and an individual eighth, it's that bad. Other seeds were found in individual grams) as well I've already began Recieving and ordering trusted feminized genetics (seriously ill local medical patients deserve high quality medication. Not like what's being offered here.) when I spoke to the owner she replied "it was due to hermies." No idk is this is true but it's still unfavorable because it is a very heritable trait.

Strains Ordered and Received

White Widow Fem - Received
Ice Fem - Received
Papaya fem - Received
Blackjack fem - Recived (Failed)
Northern Lights fem - Ordered

I will be keeping an extremely detailed journal. Like the one I was hoping to find starting out with these new methods for myself but hey trail is the best teacher in my case.

Cheeseberry is on about week 3
Hawaiian haze and ??? We're given to me and previous owner did not take good care of them, washed them out of soil place 1 into DWC other into Soilless. Age unknow

Ice, Papaya, White widow. Day 3 today

For the sake of this journal I will only be keeping track of fem seeds.

Start:
Seeds arrived germination took place over 48 hours.
1. Seeds were placed into RO water until sank and cracked
2. Placed into moist paper towel until taproot sprouted.
3. Planted into PHed Rockwool until sprouted.

Papaya & White Widow went DWC
Ice went Soilless

DWC Water Info
Ph: 5.8
PPM: 14
No nutrients

Soilless Info:
Flushed until PH around 6.0
PPM
No Nutrients

Day 1
Placed into chosen mediums
3' + away from 600 watt MH @ 50% powder

Day 2
Papaya- stretched
Ice- Stretched
White Widow- healthy
Moved to about 2' @ 50% power

Day 3
Will start tamaro

Any Advice?
Will be using GH Flora Trio with Cal-mag, B-1, and Super-thrive for the last time before switching over to Cyco.

Photos old by 2 days a lot has changed will upload tamaro

Haven't done coco yet, just gonna flush very well with ph5.8 water not adding nutes yet they're still young waiting for them to ask for something.

Papaya stretched, cut a rockwool cube in half buried the papaya deeper since it wasn't far into rooting and cut the half rockwool down the middle and wraped it around the stem now it's fine.

Put the Cheeseberry outdoor to flower, there about 2' tall. Gotta sex em. Just cycling the ice bottles every 4 hours in Resivoir now. Hardening them off. Put em under direct, leaves drop and curled inward indicating light intensity was to high, followed by a strong gust of wind bent them over slightly. Placed them under shade of tree, starting to grow upward again. Keeping water at 2.5 gallon level from the 2gallon level with just ph'ed water to compensate for absorbtion and evaporation rates, will check when I cycle water bottles. Got 2 northern lights feminized in top fed DWC, the WW is the only one showing signs of the coty leaves turning yellow. gonna put the NL where the 2 cheeseberry I put outside were in new 5 gal DWC. About to go search the forums and see if I can find some1 to explain the cocos mycorrhizae absorbtion of natural sugars, as well they say it a nutrionless substrate but I've learned different elsewhere. ( Using Un-sulfuric molasses?) Alot of Growers experiment with growing fungus which I feel would make them more comfortable trying this method, not saying I have of course...... but I already had the Coir and perlite @ my house. Also having so much difficulty ordering from Attitute right now. Its more the time difference but last night I stayed up till they opened here to place a telephone order (it was very late) and called every hour for 6 hours or so, and no awnser. They tried to call me the day before so I assume they were just slammed. Try to keep that negative thinking way out.

Anyone know what's going on with the fan leaves on one of my plants? I'm thinking pest but I've never had this problem before? PH @ 5.9 ppm dropped about 100ppm first day so I don't think it's mute burn.

Thanks btw Michiganmeds

Here's my seeds germinating
I got 5 Jedi ace and a white berry I just put In my veg room gotta go pick up coco coir. White widow, 2 Northern lights, and papaya all topped/recovered/LST and ready for their own 5 gallon DWC but I had 2 pumps break so I'm waiting on a new one. Ice same thing but it's in coco and I'm transplanting today.
Gonna probably get rid of the nirvana freebies I have growing. They look super sativa anyone get any impassable smoke off them? But with my new strains coming in plus I'll start taking clones soon off my fem seeds is rather conserve space. I'm also moving and will be setting up a perpetual grow really soon. Already got the blueprints planned.
