Today I started the Ethos Skunk Hero RBX1 grow. We will be testing out the Vivosun Seed Starter with heating pad as my ambient is still cold and dry (64 degrees and 36 RH)
Medium is an over the counter mixed living soil that is 3 different layers in 7 gallon fabric pots.
Base layer - 2.5 solo cups (1.5 pounds) of Natures Living Soil. Then Fox Farms Ocean Forest to 1/3 level. Mixed and watered to activate the living soil
Middle layer - straight FFOF
Top layer - 1/3 coco coir and 2/3 FFOF
This soil mixture will be assembled and cook in the tent to stimulate the microbe growth and develop a healthy and hot soil while the seeds are germinating and getting through the first couple weeks of growth.
The goal is to run an organic grow to flower with minimal inputs. This is a "just add water" setup but I'm sure there will be some amendments and top dressing along the way.
Plants will be topped and LST applied in veg.
Tent- Cool Grows 4x4
Light - HLG 600 R Spec
Vent - 6" vivosun inline fan w/charcoal
2X vivosun fans
Thanks for checking it out!
Heres to a successful grow!
I hope you get some skunk smell. My pheno wasn’t skunky; it had a neutral sweet scent after curing. During the cure, it had a rancid watermelon odor that mellowed into a sweeter scent post-cure. Great yeilds and good smoke still. I still have more seeds in hopes of finding one.
@FLCBud, I only grew one seed out because I only have room for 1 plant. Hopefully, when I move in a few years I can have a dedicated grow space for more plants. I eventually want to keep 3 to 6 mothers of my favorite grows like if I found a good skunky hero, I'd keep that indefinitely and give clones away to gromies. You're plant has a beautiful fade.
@Habosabin, yes I was hoping for some heavy skunk, we will see what happens after cure. Did go ahea and plant the other 3 seeds I had maybe I can find a good pheno. Thanks for the comment!
