Well everyone else is getting theres started already i see, so i guess I'll do the same. So first of thank you very much to Shanti for letting me do this, I'll try an make ya proud, at bare minimum not kill em.

As for what these girls will be in, the veg room consists of 4 400 mh and 2 2 tier t5s, and the flower is 4 1000 w hps a 600 sunpulse, and a 400 hps. heat is exhausted through an inline set up consisting of 4 6 inch vortex, as well as a separate 8 inch fan and filter, so heat issues shouldnt be a problem baring freak happenings.
For feeding I'll be running a mix of Pura Vida, Big Bloom, Molasses, Thrive alive(omri), and grozyme. This will only really be the second run using these nutes for me, but so far they look like they do great on the nevs, so i cant see it going bad here. i used to be a fox farm man, but they are stopping shipment to Canada on that line, so here we go. The nice thing is though its a full OMRI rated mix.
So dont know what else to say right now, just remember, if I fuck up, it was someone elses fault:D funny guy eh?
 
Hey guys, thanks, and ya I like to see a nice field in front of me, though I'll never have one big enough. And just so everyone know, I'm a legal med patient from NL, Canada, with a limit of 73 plants, so I've got lots of space for these ladies. I'm going to be running a mix of shunshine #4 that the co. started making for me, but lots of people here tried it and it works great for our high moisture climate and cold temps, the high perlite mix is a majour benefit to anyone living in a like region. I run in about 6-7 gal pots so they should have a chance to get nice and big for sure. Also these will be trained using pinching, so not topping or tying down of branches, just a bend at the stalk, and wait for it to come back up the next day. The attainable structure is not unlike an LST, but you dont have the issue of a strictly stationary plant, you can move them around and still get you 30 tops.

Anyway, theres the scene, so the second I get these they are going down. I'll be running a couple other things at the same time, but I'll leave all that out of this thread. Oh, and if Shanti stops in, I have a pack of af sk x af hz here already, I'd be more than happy to run those ones out the same time for ya, like I say, they are just sitting there.

73 plant limit? :eek: *drools* l couldnt imgaine seeing that many plants in one place. have a good go with NHS should be amazing
 
Thanks for the good wishes, and of course all the same to you guys, testers or not. Only sad thing is, looks like my test will be behind most peoples, damn slow newfie mail strikes again, lets hope for monday, no worries though, always takes longer to get things here.
 
no worries Big Buddy. I'm glad I'm not the only one who can't start til next week, so you won't be getting left behind. My "issue" is slightly different to yours though in that my beans have arrived, I just don't have anywhere for them to live until my PP is dry (PP is drying in the veg box).... I'm not complaining though, I think there must be worse issues in life than "I got too much f*cking weed to get started right now" :D
 
Lol, thats my other problem bro, the rooms are filled to he brim, but I'll get these out anyway, even if i stretch out a few elite moms, this is worth it. And sadly no seeds yet, but made an order a couple day before these went out and that just got here, so before the week is out, also monday was a holiday here, so I've got a few more things to tell myself to keep the excitement contained, lol.
 
So, SSOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO, guess whos gettin on the test tonight. Found the little babies in the mail today, and they will be in soil by the end of the night. And yes, that is how I germ, straight in moist soil and i have great results, more natural, and you dont damage those microscopic roots that are very sensitive and easy to destroy.
Anyway, so this one is on the move, and I'll do my best to keep the updates flowin.
 
good on you Big Buddy,
straight away into the soil like mother nature intended,good show.
from what Ive seen from the old stuff,we should see some phenominal plants in the bloom phase with almost exotic transformations occurring.
from a light green leaf in vegative stage to a dark leathery thin leaf in bloom.
ill be hittin it in about a week myself.

good luck man

Whatever way they grow man, i cant wait to see it. I'm actually dropping a few moms here for this run, and just to freshen up the room, so time to move some to the next proud parent so they live on. But ya, I'd love to find multiple keepers in these, as I almost always do when I run MNS gear.
 
Hey elmo, things are starting to look up bro. Took the day off today after being up for about 50 odd hours straight working(thank fuck for clinical insomnia) so just went up and took a look see. We now after only 3 days, without pre germ, have 5 happy sprouts, and I'm sure I'll be seeing more before the day is out, only 20 more to say hello.
 
So I had to pop on one more time, start of 4 days, 20 up, 5 to go, now thats consistant shit for germ right there.
 
Great germ rates so far BB, 20+ and counting:cool:,
gonna be an impressive selection in your grow i reckon man,
strapped in for the ride

peace
