Indoor MedCzech’s ManCave-BioTabs & “The Flavor Chase”

[MedCzech]

Ok, so we have four ladies awake and above soil. The PineApple Express, Gorilla Glue, Orange Biscuit,and the Purple Nuggets have all broken and are starting to open up. The other two(and I know because I peeked) are a little turned around in their root it pods, but I think they will get turned around and get out by tomorrow. That would be a first in the last four grows. It would be nice to have 100% germinate and seedling success rate.
I have been having issues with one of two beans. Maybe the H2o2 helped this time around...?
I will get photos later. I don't want to disturb them right now in their warm little incubator.

Happy to have four from six even to be honest. I can drop a couple more beans if necessary, but I hope these two will still come up.

Day 1 for 4 of 6 ladies so far!

Not much to see, but for my first indoor organic grow, I am happy as a pig in shit.

This is the Orange Biscuit from Mephisto. She popped up first. Sorry I don't want to disturb them too much. They look nice and green already even though they just came out.

Hard to see her st all in the back, but she is up...that's the Purple Nuggets. She should be a squatty little fat girl with solid chunky nugs. Sounds like a girl I dated in high school...

Just popping her head out in the middle back, the Gorilla Glue from Fastbuds. She could get big. I will top her at the fourth node, as will I top the PineApple Express. Both strains can get large and I want to have some control over the canopy. I will train as necessary, but I do have two medium to large, one medium, and two smaller strains in the tent together.

The PineApple Express here from Fastbuds will be a nice addition to the med cabinet. Looking forward to her sweet aroma and taste...yummy stuff. Like top ten tastiest weed ever type stuff.

Waiting on the CDLC hybrid and the Sour Livers, both from Mephisto. I think they will pop tomorrow morning...

If you look close you can see that I drilled holes in my AutoPots so I can use pipe cleaners to train plants and have easy holds. Small details like this are helping each grow get a little smoother.

This organic style is going to be weird because you don't really do anything special except like five times, as specific times you add some more stuff or spray within stuff, all in a neat schedule. It's too good to be true. We shall see...

The lights I am using right now in the beginning are the Bestva 600w, true 125w, led reflector series, and the basic cob with meanwell driver and running a Cree 3590 chip at 3500k.

You can see, this light is pretty handy and has a nice spectrum. Very bright when on full blast, although I almost never run it like that. If only I had bought the Mars led, I may have done even better, but this is a very solid light with excellent quality construction.

Good canopy penetration as well. I keep it the same height as my 60w cobs. And right now, with this light on only bloom using 55 watts and the cob using 60 watts, I have them about 1.35cm above the pots. Seedling don't need that much light. This combination of soft red light and the cob give them a nice morning like sunrise effect and this should encourage them to stretch up and find the light from what I have read about spectrum and growth patterns in cannabis.

I am using the light with no reflector right now, but I have possibilities for both you see here. I found it was too hot and causing hot spots with overlap. I think I have more than enough light dispersion wise, intensity is another story. I will add UV light into the mix in mid and late flower. I have yet to acquire the light I will use yet. Still thinking of options.

Here you can see the pink hue of the lights reflected on the tent. I think this combo is the best way to start the plants IMO. Simulates sunrise

Hey that BestTva is a good light this plant is being grown under it

Bud porn from MedCzech's Med Cabinet...

Orange Biscuit after two month cure. Smooth, silky, citrus cookie and sweet cedar wood undertones. One on my go to girls...

Girl Scout Cookie purple pheno. Starting to improve with the cure, this girl now has a nice pine and woody flavor with some sweet berry undertones starting to get stronger with the cure. Great for pain med!

Night Queen, the pickled Berry pheno, I called her Stretch. Nice tasty stuff. Been curing for six months now. I like how some weed matures and really improves with time...

More to come...

Sweet man! Yes, this little light is really nice. Honestly I might get another one. Feels really quality and parts inside are good. I opened her up. All looking good to me. I heard from some people that this light was an anomaly and that they overbuilt it in attempts to compete with larger brands, and also built a ton of them, then they just didn't have the marketing and really the light never held up. The other larger versions are just as good. I may get the 1200w version. Just a doubled up version of this light. I can do the entire tent with those lights alone. Quite strong for sure, and the spectrum, having both the UV and IR, is really full and plants grown under that light have always been good.

I never used it send it to one of my peeps and he loves it it's in a 3 x 3 x 7 and lights it up well you can see from pic the light was still on inside the grow space

H2O2 can also be used as single aswell as componet rocket fuel, so why not?!:smoking:

All six girls are up, so let's call today officially DAY 1...:smoking:

I can't say I was this excited about a grow in a while. The implications for this grow would be huge in my life personally. It would free up time and worry about what I need to do to stay on top of the plants. There are no such things as perfect grows in organics, but near perfect grows with little hassle would be great. Plus, I think I have e learned quickly from all the research what problems were occurring and why. I have a plan to keep those issues away. Adding guano pebbles in the bottom will give plants some needed nutrition as roots develop deep around the airdomes.
The silicium flash product should really help reduce and Cal Mag issues earlier grows had without this. I added extra mychorrizea to diversify the microbial life. I have some really quality stuff from extreme gardening that has worked great before for me.
I will use the boom boom spray a couple times in veg, not just once, but I will dilute the solution a little. This should also help combat any minor deficiencies, plus the BioTabs guys use it more often than they actually put in the plan. You just have to use i to all up when you make it other wise it becomes inactive. It's really good stuff! I have heard people were using it to save lost plants and it really works to bring plants back from near death. Really good reviews on that.

Anyways. I will get photos of the ladies awake later today after running errands, taking my daughter to the doctors, and working for three hours this afternoon.

See ya...
