Fall 2026 last grow of the year

Fall is in the air :fallen_leaf::fallen_leaf::sheaf_of_rice: Although it sure seems more like July :hot_face::hot_face:. Time to get the grow room growing with something good :+1: just in time for the Holidays :tada::tada:, or at least New Year’s :rofl::speak_no_evil_monkey::hear_no_evil_monkey::see_no_evil_monkey::person_raising_hand:.

So let’s get to it!:ok_hand: First thing is germination.

We picked out our lineup of Northern Lights 99 :compass:, Purple Oreoz​:hyacinth:, Laughing Buddha​:genie:, and Black Domina :club_suit:, and placed them in the steamer. Now, we wait :face_with_peeking_eye::face_with_peeking_eye:

I will be updating the Northern Lights 99 :compass: on its own thread :+1::thread:

930 am, and we’re ready :+1::smiling_face_with_sunglasses: 4 for 4 :person_raising_hand:

We use these plugs from Seedsman :horse:

:dango: Put em into the plugs, then :electric_plug: into the hydro machine they go​:backhand_index_pointing_right:

My hand held digital tester thing says all is well in the well​:+1::see_no_evil_monkey:

Water temperature is warmer than I care for, once they sprout :seedling:, we’ll change the water :ocean: and cool it :mobile_phone_off:

Grow room is cooking at just under 78, with 75%, we’ll leave it that way until we get growing :potted_plant: :potted_plant:

Sunday :+1::dashing_away::dashing_away::mate::person_raising_hand: been a good day here on the farm. Got the areoponic pots ready, got the new fan :folding_hand_fan: on the wall :brick:, and the Purple Oreoz :hyacinth: are awake.

The other 2 are coming, :thinking: I think :joy::joy::dashing_away::dashing_away::ok_hand:

Got the under canopy, and corner lights in. :+1:

The lights are hooked up-ish​:joy::+1: they work :+1: still got to actually mount them :roll_eyes::thinking: that’s a tomorrow thing :ok_hand::dashing_away::dashing_away::mate:

200watt light bars, 8 at 25 watts each. Well see what that does for things :wink:

Just a heads-up: don’t hit the plants with the full blast of light right away. Try to ease them into it gradually. I’ve seen in several YouTube videos that doing otherwise can lead to problems, my friend. It looks really stylish​:star_struck:

Smart! Until roots take hold good then ramp up every few days until she says SUNBURN

They all died last night, no idea why. They laying on their sides tho. So much for this attempt. Everything checks out fine. I dunno :neutral_face:

Sad day :face_exhaling:
The cubes do look bone dry in those pictures, they need to be kept wet hand fed until roots hit the water really.

@MrNice gets 2 gold stars :star_struck: you are correct sir :+1:

That’s what indeed, is what has happened. With the addition of the other fan, the greater airflow was drying out the cubes. But why​:thinking: because the drip are only half way open. :light_bulb: Drip tubes? Yeah :+1: that’s what is supposed to keep the clay pebbles moist :+1::ok_hand:, and they are, or were until I turned on the :folding_hand_fan: fan.:roll_eyes:.

So, fan is still on, but on the drip tubes are running fully open :beer_mug: :counterclockwise_arrows_button:, the Northern Lights 99 :compass: and Purple Oreoz :hyacinth: are now standing upright again :+1: the other 2 didn’t make it :disappointed_face::person_shrugging:

We also did a water swap, and refresh. pH is just under 6 at 5.89. dropped off the ppms to 300. Currently 79f at 68%

I’m definitely going to drop another Laughing Buddha, I’m debating on the final spot :thinking: I could go with the Black Domina again, but I also have this Fire OG, I’ve been wanting to grow it for a couple years now :thinking: Seedsman :horse: hasn’t shipped yet, so the duck is off the menu, I’ve also got that Serious Black, 707 Headband , Afghan Kush, Hindu Kush, :thinking: I’m going to think on it tonight :wink:

Yeah buddy :rofl: :+1: I was pretty happy about that too. Was a pretty stressful 48 hours. At least I know how to dry up a plant :shamrock:, if, ever such an occasion should arise :rofl::rofl::+1:

I think most everyone would appreciate a nice Kush :rofl::+1:

High Noon :twelve_o_clock: on Saturday, geeze man the 12th? Already getting into middle September and it’s still 98f outside.

The decision has been made. Sticking with the original Laughing Buddha :genie: and Black Domina :black_cat:. Germination starts, now :+1::twelve_o_clock:
