I am starting up my grow room and I wanted to make sure that the climate was right before I brought in the real genetics, so I decided to grow something I didn't necessarily care about so I grabbed a random seed I had laying around from some good commercial regs and decided to see how well it did, and along the way it has been showing some interesting genetics so I decided to start this grow journal to keep track of the growth of this plant. I am growing t from a seed and I have not sexed it yet, and don't plan on doing so for awhile sincve I am aminly interested in seeing how my room does as far as veg growth goes for now.
I am going to play catch up here and explain what has ahppened so far...
4/2 - started the seed in a wet paper towel
4/4 - popped the seed in a plastic cup filled with happy frog and stuck it under a CFL since the grow room was still being set up
4/9 - took the first pictures of this plant:
the first two leaves were HUGE as you can see here
4/12 - room is almost ready - transplanted to a bigger pot:
4/13 to 4/18: MISHAP! I put the plant in it's new home and it was really happy at first but I failed to take any pics during this time because there was an accident - the screws holding the light weren't set deep enough in to the wall/beam and the light smashed down on the the plant! yikes! so I put it back under the CFL and worked on rigging up a sturdier setup for the light. One of the leaves was damaged in the accident, and the light was unhurt, so overall it wasn't that bad - better to have it happen to this plant than to the real grow setup when I have more plants in there from clones. I also decided to see how it would work out if I FIM'ed the plant after just a couple of growing nodules, and it immediatley started to branch out at all possible points.
4/19: a couple of pics of how it looks under the MH:
NOTE: you can see the damaged leaf, but overall it is looking very healthy with the new branching underneath
4/21: added low-tech C02 (sugar and yeast in a soda bottle X3) and the plant is loving it as you can see
NOTE: There is a bit of damage to some of the bigger older leaves due to intense heat in the grow room while I was still working on getting the climate right, etc., but overall this plant is showing some great potential)
