well... i say well met, it would probably help if i introduced myself properly, lol.
I'm a full-time smoker, have been for 13 years now..... and I'm only 26 so thats not greta really lol.
Originally I was a smoker purely to get high but over the past few years have started to recognise it for the medicine it is and I'm finally starting to stop abusing it in the way that i was previously.
Although i still do smoke for pleasure I take notice in what I'm smoking ie: sativas during the day and indicas for my insomnia and because of this I finally have the incentive to break away from buying off the street. Still having to occasionally, far too much still to be honest but as I'm only at the beginning of whats already become an obsession its something that cant be helped for now however, thats all about to change.
My first few plants are rather a sore subject as i had 7 auto seeds from Pyramid, a Wembley, Osiris, Galaxy, Tutankhamon, Shark, Super hash and Neffertiti and 3 Pineapple express seeds from Barneys, all were growing fantastically until a, without sounding rude, bitch of an ex-girlfriend decided to destroy every single one while i was out one day..... that was the last day I saw her.
But anyways, time is a wheel and things move on so what shall be classed as my first grow consisted of 3 Automatic Critical Mass from Big buddha seeds grown under three 30w household energy saver bulbs, LST'd to buggery which produced an awesome first attempt even conopy but suffered slightly from a potassium difficency towards the end of flowering. Unfortunately i dont own a pair of scales so i can't give an exact final weight but i pulled in a couple of grams either side of an ounce with each plant. No less than 22/23 grams on the smaller one and possibly touching 28/29 grams on the larger one. all in all a damn fine effort for experiment number 1.
Number 2, which is whats finishing now, currently on day 65 but hoping to let them carry on for another week or so while I order new seeds, consists of the final 2 Critical Mass seeds from my original pack of 5 and a Lennon from pyramid seeds which somehow never got planted in the 'Grow that sharnt be named'.
Once again i shall get an oz from each critical, this time with very little training except a quick tie-down in week 2, tbh other than that this has been an experiment to see what happens when left to their own devices..... the only thing suffered by this was an uncontrollable stretching during flower. The Lennon plant has pulled close to 18/20 grams.... possibly closer to the 18 mark I'd say.
Btw, all these plant have been fed nothing but rainwater adding only woodash (from my fire) and fish blood and bone mix when i noticed the difficiency in the first grow, apart from that they have been fed on nothing but good ol H20.
Not sure this is the place to ask but i'll put it here and then have a search opn the forums and post it there as well but as I say I'm looking to purchase a selection of new seeds so if anyone has any recommendations they'd like to share please holler in this direction, any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hopefully now i can claim to be slightly more well-met.
Long days and pleasant nights
