Hello Growers!
I'm excited to give Durban Poison a try. I've never sampled or grown this classic. This is a 10 week flowering, 80% Sativa / 20% Indica feminized photo-period. I plan to grow her DWC style, and ScrOG her out to fill my 2x4x8 foot Gorilla Grow tent. I hope to use multi-leveled trellis netting to grow some tall speared colas. Wish me luck ๐.
The Germination details:
Saturday October 16 ---13 Hour seed soak in distilled water. The seed sank in the first hour after a finger poke. 3pm, paper towel/ coffee filter method between two small dishes, placed on top of my router. Approx. 78F.
Sunday October 17 ----11:30 am seed has sprouted a root about 1.3 cm long (see pics above), after 20.5 hours. The little sprout was then sandwiched inside a rook wool cube with some Great White powder and placed into her 6" net cup with hydroton media.
Please follow along, drop a like or comment, and share your experience with this strain.
Peace,
DeaneR๐
@DeaneR, I grew some of crop kings Lambs breath over the summer, but didn't run a diary, if you want to get stuff done it is awesome the wife calls it my busy weed lol
Hey man! Just a thought, but maybe when those leaves turn 90 degs they are praying really hard, I mean it could be osmotic pressure in the plant that makes it turn that way, and apparently there's not much light difference on both sides of the leaf that it doesn't affect it's position
Great work as usual๐
Does that dwc method up the humidty in your house much?
I'm already running a dehumidifier in the basement and taking
almost 8 liters of water out of the air and keeping the basement at 55% RH and the rest of the house at 40-45% rh,
and I'm using soil.Hard to keep the rh where I want because our house looks like a jungle, plants everywhere.
I'm using the water from the dehumidifier to water all the house plants, I just add some (kelp me kelp you) to bring the PH up a little from
the RO water coming from the dehumidifier all plants are super happy.
Mery Christmas!!!
@northernMike, Thanks Mike. I don't think this DWC method raises my homes RH, any more than my previous coco grows, with fabric pots (think of the surface area of the pot and media drying, plus runoff in the tray). I found little loss due to evaporation using this DWC style. I put a plastic sheet around the stem of the plant, to block light and reduce evaporation. The plants do grow quickly though, and are transpiring a gallon per day...So its like having one of those room humidifiers running 24/7. It's been a warm/damp December in my area. Normally, my NG furnace helps lower my house RH. I disabled my HVAC's humidifier and run a DC furnace fan 24/7 to help circulate my house air. My house was built in the 60's, so the basement is always damper than the rest of the house.
Have a happy Happy, merry Merry!!!!๐
