Well hello there my fellow growing friends its time for me to start the journey once again. Took a slight break to wipe the grow room and everything in it down. Love the JEM and I plan to grow them out for quite some time, tho I will eventually venture into other strains.

I was fortunate enough to be donated a couple of seeds by a good friend since I was unable to produce any of my own last run. This run I plan on doing a bit of a seed run to get a nice stash of my own. I only had 5 seeds to start with and as it stands its looking like only three of them will be along for the ride. Not giving up hope yet, but one of them is still not showing their head from the dirt yet. The other, immediately upon popping out of the dirt looked CRAZY! (and I mean deformed to the fullest:no:) lol

My setup has not changed, although hopefully before the ending of this grow I will be in possession of a Grow Tent to be able to step up my plant count by a few.:D
Lights: 430 watt Hps but will also add about 6 27 watt cfl lights for sides during flowering
Room: Closet (2x3x7 ish)
Pots: 3 gallon converted trash can (chose because height is 14 inches)
Soil: TLO (True Living Organics)bThis is the biggest change for me from the last grow. I plan on using nothing but organic ingredients from start to finish. Tho the base of it all is Sunshine #4 Mix and FFOF!
Nutrients: Nothing but Teas composed of Fish Fertilizer, Kelp, Alfafa Meal, Worm Castings, Blood and Bone Meal and I think thats about it. And Grandma's unsulphered molasses.
Soil Ph meter as well as a Digital water meter now as well thanks to a GREAT FRIEND!! (thanks alot man!:jump:)

Im an experimenter by nature, and wanted to see the differences in smoke and size as well. I hear the smoke is unmatched so we will see!:D Im pretty excited. I doubt that I have the perfect mix of everything at the moment, but I wrote it all down and will make adjustments accordingly to have knowledge for future grow success.

i Have no pictures at the moment because this is the kinda boring stage and pics of tiny seedlings aren't too exciting. But will post in about a week or so.
They are 2 days out of soil today.:dance:

I know this is a bit long, but the rest of the posts will be short and to the point!

:pop:loved the last grow , cant wait for this one. gwan JEMman , getting my tent soon and gonna grow pj's as my first grow in it as a result of your last grow log. best of luck with it brother:smokebuds:
 
Chair is locked in the upright position and tray is put up and away seat belt is fastened. let's do this!
 
So, you're out of the bunker! LOL I admire your sense of adventure with the TLO. I'll be keenly interested in how that goes. Besides, as good as the last grow was, I wouldn't want to miss this one. sub'd!!! :thumbs:
 
Thank you all for the early interest! I hope I can get some pretty decent results.

Unfortunately after doing a bit more research it seems that just bubbling the water a couple of days is not quite enough for this TLO system. I dont know whether my area uses just chlorine or also uses chloramine. Chlorine can be bubbled out in a day or two but Chloramine is extremely detrimental to the myco and other good things in the soil. So i guess I have to find out what my area uses to treat the water around here. Any tips on finding out this info? If its Chloramine I will need to find an RO system very fast( if I can afford it). I heard that I shouldn't use distilled for my grow when i was using the nutes with chelating agents, but I wonder if its good for the TLO system?

Well I just got things clarified for me and Im good to go! :)

Well, i got bored today and decided to snap a couple of pics on just on of the JEMS. There is one a little bigger as well as one that is a little smaller. I can definitely say that they seem to be growing a faster than my last ones started off. Here she (hopefully) is at day 7. Comparing pics my last one looked about here at 11 days. Hopefully this gap just keeps getting bigger and bigger!:D
I do need to try to keep humidity up a little higher tho as it is around 40%.
 
looks good bro goodluck
