Dutch Passion Dutch Passion AutoDurban Poison biobizz grow

[TRIPDOG]

Hi everyone. Going to start a journal for my new Dutch Passion AutoDurban Poison.

I have not grown this plant before and am a bit worried it may grow too tall for my tent. So far I have grown several dutch passion plants and some joint doctors with reasonable sucess.

My tent is 75cm * 75cm * 200
Carbon filter and RVK fan on exit and bathroom fan on intake. Small fan inside tent.

Using 250w dual spectrum hd grow bulb with 3cfls rated 20w each clipped to tent bars. Got warm white and daylight bulbs for these.

Using 6litre airpots with Biobizz light mix soil.

Nutrients are all by BioBizz and include

Grow
Bloom
Root
Alg a Mic
Heaven
TopMax
Fish mix

Rootriot cubes to start seeds in.

The temps in my tent are a bit high at the moment (Got two plants in there at moment) with high about 32c and low 25c. As the weather cools I am Hoping I will be able to control the temp a bit more.

Going to leave some tap water overnight and start tomorrow.

Looks like you've got yourself a nice little setup. I've not grown that strain myself but given it's sativa dominant genetics and the size that most of the DP strains get to, it could turn out to be a big one. Best of luck with your grow.

Got up this morning and put the seed in soak.


After leaving in soak for about 12 hours I put the seed inbetween some wet tissue paper.



I will leave the seed sandwiched between the wet tissue in the dark overnight and check in the morning. The tissue paper is wet but not dripping and the temp in my cupboard is 25/26 deg C.

Hi Muddy. So far I have been quite lucky with height. The only plant that I had problems with was a DP Auto Ultimate that I chopped the top off in the end. Still got LOADS of it. BY the time my pot height and lights are taken into account I have about 1m of grow room. The other DPs I have grown have stayed about 75cm.

Just checked my seed and has a little root. Tried to take a photo to boast but can't zoom in that close lol. Have put seed in a root riot cube and will place this in my little propagator at the back of my tent. Has been about 36 hours since seed touched water.

My seed is now poking out the top of its root riot cube. Will pot it tomorrow and post pick.

Hello again. Had a little panic today. Got up this morning and my little seedling had nearly all shrivelled up. Gave it a little bit of water and seems OK now. Just finished putting it in a 6 litre air pot. The soil is damp so I am going to let it settle over night before its first water.

WEEK 1 : DAY 1​

2ml/litre Root Juce
1ml/litre Alg a Mic

Mixed 3 litres water and watered air pot. Prob wont need another water for at least a week.
Temps in my tent still bit high Max 30c main lights off 23c
My lamp about 80cm from top of plant mainly because I have other plants in the same tent.
Have put a clip light with a 22w daylight cfl onto tent pole by pot. Height is about 40cm from top of pot. As my main bulb is a dual spectrum I am hoping this will add a bit more blue light around the plant. Will swap this to another yellow cfl when flowering.

Got the 250w dual spectrum HP's above and three cfls on the tent poles. As I grow three plants in the tent at different stages I keep the HP's in line with the tallest plant and use the CFLs to give extra light to the younger plants. As the plants grow up to the HP's I use the CFLs to give light to the lower branches. I change the bulbs from blue to red when growth stops.

I was thinking about instead putting some UV CFLs in their place.

Any thoughts on this?
