Crash Journal

Based on my scale, 160 seeds weighed 1.93 grams. Total weight of all the seeds was 20.00 grams. So 20.00 * 160 / 1.93 = about 1658 seeds. The engineer in me couldn't let it go : )

I will try to start some and see if they are any good. I'm paranoid after the freak seed fiasco...

Nine days growth... I think I need to move the thermometer.

 

[CrashMagnet]

I moved the hydrometer up, and potted the two rooted clones. The angle isn't great, but those are 1.5 gallon pots. Both clones are from the bigger freak. I have two more almost ready to go also from the bigger freak. The three cuttings I have for the smaller one are so far not rooting. Not sure I care since the other one is growing so much faster. Anyway, as soon as the cones get a little size I will reverse one to pollinate the other.

I realized too late that I don't have any male Supafreak pollen or plants. So I'm going back to the poor quality seeds and hoping some of them pop and at least one is a male. I will put some in water to soak tonight or tomorrow. It will be funny if the only ones I can get to pop are female : ) I'll make some more clones as well, so I have something to pollinate when the males are ready.

Last night I put 12 Supafreak seeds in a solo cup with water and left it on my desk. We have a house keeper who come in twice a month (no, she's a US citizen). She was here today, and when I got home from work the seeds were gone. I didn't have the heart/nerve to ask her about them, but I assume she threw them out. I just put 12 more seeds in a solo cup and left it on my desk : )

I went through all my seeds this weekend.
I could never grow all that weed out even if I tried.
I'll post pics of them when I get a chance.

I have 3 full gallon zip locks and 1/4 . The 1/4 is fems Those I am almost out. Doing a Grimm grow and started like 8-10 kinds of their beans. Some are getting old as they do not even sell them anymore. Germination was great but coming up not so much. They all had great tails all 24 should have made it. I don’t know if I put them too deep or what. I don't usually have this problem.

It will be ok

I potted two more clones. Put them in the 2X4 as the grow room is getting a little crowded. Nothing from the cuttings of the smaller one.

Here is 13 days growth. Going to have to spread them out soon, maybe flip the smaller one and keep the big one going for a while. I'll have to setup a second tent in the shop, though.

 

[CrashMagnet]

The place that was supposed to make the access doors fell through. They have the same constraints as everyone else. 24" wide is the max. The guy I talked to just didn't know that.

I was going to get some hardboard from Home Depot, since it's always super flat even if it's thin. Then make a frame from the squared up 2X4's. But one look made it obvious this idea wasn't going to work. You can tell, not one sheet of the stuff has sold. This wasn't the only bay that was damaged or with improperly stored sheets of one thing or another. The 1/2" MDF I was also considering is in the next bay to the right... Going to check lowes tomorrow, but I bet it's just as bad.

Edit: I just noticed the pic is of the more expensive sanded plywood. The hardboard was in worse shape.

 

[CrashMagnet]

15 days growth. I'm thinking about flipping them both in the 2X4 tent, and putting the clones in the grow room. If they aren't done by the time I'm ready to reverse a clone and make pollen, I can always setup a second tent. I seriously doubt I will be done with the attic by then : )

 

[CrashMagnet]

I moved all the clones and veggies out of the grow room, and set it to 12/12. Here are the two freaks before I turned off the infrared. I just remembered they are going to need a heater setup.

 

[CrashMagnet]

Here they are with the lights on...

 

[CrashMagnet]

Not much to look at yet, but the ceiling is taped and ready to finish. You can see my "stilts", some old sandals screwed to a couple of 2x4's, on the floor. The walls will go fast, but it might take longer to get the stairs done standing on a ladder.

It’s looking good, Crash, coming together real nice.

So far two of twelve SF seeds have popped. Three of six of the auto seeds to pop, but I was using the ones I culled and tossed after planting the 6. One of those five may be a Grease Monkey seed I was going to start but misplaced.

Here's the mixed 2X4 with some SF clones, seedlings and seeds and a few autos. Brussels Sprouts, a jalapeno pepper, and some very unhappy tomato plants. The tomato plants don't seem to like the coco-perlite soil, or the Master Blend nutes. I was planning to move them to some MG soil, but it might be better to just plant some more and toss these.

i need to start the white freaks @oldfogey8 sent me. They are extra slow I gotta get them started so they are ready to go outsideMid May or Beginning of june. They will veg until mid July then will start flowering in July by the Sun. I can grow easily until Dec.
