NucksNugs "Bedroom Bud"A Washington State Medical MJ Patient
Disabled Veteran \ PTSD Patient
Welcome to my first Medical Marijuana Grow and also my First ever Grow Journal on AFN or any other Cannabis Forums.
Thus my first grow tent purchase was a 2x4, and I am currently shopping for more obscure Tent sizes and "Micro-Growing" equipment. I also plan on building and purchasing a few more Space Bucket/Space Tote builds to try and master "Nano-Growing". I currently have a mystery Mephisto FC (Freebie Cross) finishing up in my Stealth-bucket. I also just recently picked up my first "3 1/2 inch" spacer from the company that built my Space Bucket and will post comparison pictured side-by-side.
A complete list of what I am growing is below:

Inside my 2x4 Tent I recently started several projects with the above genetics listed. The two girls in the 3 gallon fabric Pots are the Green Crack Clone (Front Plant) and the Mt. Hood Magic Clone (Back Plant). In this picture which gives a overview of the 2x4 tent, you might notice that both clones have been hacked and pruned back heavily. The following side by side pictures will show the distinction between Aug 29th when I received the Clones and today September 4th:
The reasoning behind doing this was to try and get out of my comfort zone when handling plants. Since these are Clones I am not too terribly worried about going nuts and will not be flowering these two out. Thus why they got basically chopped down to nothing. I think it will end up being a fun experiment and experience for myself as a "budding" gardener.
Next up in the 2x4 Tent are the 4 Mephisto Genetics Auto-flower's that I decided to grow in 1-Gallon Nursery Pots. I decided to restrict the Auto's to 1 gallon pots so I focus on maintaining and keeping plants smaller due to my space restrictions. The following pictures are of the first few days of the seedlings lives:
Now these 4 pictures are from 9/3/2020 & 9/4/2020. The Following Pictures are the Mephisto Girls today [9/6/2020]:
MEPHISTO AUTO-FLOWER GROW NOTES (As of 9/6/2020):
SEPTEMBER 2, 2020: Planted 1x CDLC, 1x S.O.D.K, 1x N. Cheese Haze, 1x Sour Crack
In Root Riot Starter plugs directly. No Water Germination or Paper Towel Germination was done for these Girls. I usually use these Sphagnum Peat moss plugs and have had fantastic germination rates so far! 100% across all my projects
I watered the seeds in gently with water pH'd to 6.5 and placed the starter plugs in 1 gallon nursery pots filled with Rogue Soil's Rocket Fuel Soil blend additionally amended with Mammoth P, and both the 4-4-4 All Purpose and the 2-8-4 Bloom Booster Organic dry amendment nutrients from Gaia Green.
These girls are under a SPIDER-FARMER SF1000 that is dimmed to 50% light intensity and hung 18" from the "Canopy" of these Girls.
I will water these girls lightly with regular filtered and pH'd tap water that has been de-chlorinated for a minimum of 24 hours with the help of my 5-Gallon bucket and Vivosun 4-inch air stone.
SEPTEMBER 4, 2020: MEPHISTO GENETICS BROKE SURFACE
All 4 Auto-Flower's from Mephisto Genetics successfully germinated in their respective mediums and are now in the process of getting rid of their shells and producing their first true sets of leaves. I am very excited for whats to come! :smoking:
I watered the newly sprouted girls lightly with my Vivosun Compression Sprayer with De-chlorinated tap water pH'd to 6.6 with 3 mL's of Mammoth P [Made 5 Gallons and fed all the girls [including my Stealth Bucket Grow, the Jinx-proof & Stoned Ninja photo-period run (started alongside these girls in the 2x4), and the 2 Clones I was gifted by a compassionate grower.
