After finally getting all the licensing in place we are officially in business! For our first run, while the mother plants we chose get their legs, we will be running 400 autoflowering seeds by Canuk. The 4 strains we chose are, AK x Critical Mass, OG Kush, Quarter Pounder, and Northern Lights. (wouldn't be a grow without the northern lights lol) All of them will be autoflowers and will be available for legal purchase in Tulsa, Oklahoma and surrounding areas in about 3 months! October 14th we planted 32 AK x Critical Mass Autoflowering Seeds by Canuk. We will be planting 32 more each day for the next 3 days. 15th - 32 OG Kush Autoflowers were planted and placed in the grow room. 16th - 32 Quarter Pounder Autoflowers were planted and placed in the grow room. 17th - 32 Northern Lights Autoflowers were planted and placed in the grow room. 18th - After only 4 days the first of the AK x Critical Mass seeds has popped! Great job Canuk, I heard you guys could bring it and I am a believer so far. That will be all the planting until next month when we will add approximately 80 more autos to the clone room. We will be selecting a few mothers from the MK Ultra room as well as adding some from the stash of beans I have, Blueberry, Northern Lights, Super Lemon Haze, and White Widow, again all from Canuk. Thanks for checking out our little operation!

Having issues keeping the humidity up in this space. Each room is about 300 sq ft and we have large humidifiers in each but can't seem to get above 50% humidity while the lights are running. Any ideas? I need hum higher for the seedlings and am out of ideas! Thanks in advance

I run my humidity at 50% from seed to 3 weeks from harvest them drop to 40%. With no problems. Now if you where a clone yes humidity higher would benefit but I don't see any reason for seedlings. Yours look healthy too

Starting to see most of the seeds popping. Temps and humidity are still ok, but could definitely be better. Once the girls get going a bit more we will crank up the lights from 600w to 1000w on all 8 lights, at that time we will move the MK Ultra clones into this auto room to save space. Since the autos will run on 18/6 we can free up more space in the clone room to start popping our first mother plants and begin harvesting clones for sale and to grow. Of those we will be trying first, Northern Lights, White Widow, Super Lemon Haze, and Blueberry. I will be starting a separate diary for those plants, be sure to check it out.

Week 3 since we first put seeds in the dirt. Found out the hard way that's not really how we want to germinate our seeds moving forward. Had a pretty shitty success rate. I still have 300 seeds left so, live and learn. The ak by critical mass has taken off pretty well, the OG Kush is taking longer than we expected, the quarter pounder is moving along quite nicely and the Northern Lights, which are only a week old are still lagging behind. In the "clone room" the MKUltra is looking very nice, growing extremely fast and we will probably be putting those into flower in the next couple of weeks. We went ahead and chose a few of them for mother plants; we took 25 clones today and set them up on a rack with cob LED lights. We also started our mother plant seeds; Northern Lights, blueberry, white widow, and super lemon Haze. Hopefully those will pop in the next few days, and in anticipation we have added a small mother room (closet really) for them where we will hang 2 800 watt LED cob lights and one Mars hydro sp250 and veg those out until we can start taking clones. Thanks for looking!

Been a busy week here at The Garden. The autos that have popped are really starting to take off now and we've germinated seeds to make up for the ones we so ignorantly lost. This week we are cranking up the MH lights from 500w to 750w in the auto room. We started our nutrient regimen in the clone room where we have our MK Ultra clones. The mother room/closet is pretty much ready, we just need to install exhaust and a couple fans and the mother plants will be moved in. We also added 2 new aerocloners we made for about 60 bucks each. We took clones from 4 different plants and will do more later this week. They are working great and if you want to know how to build one don't hesitate to ask, I'll explain. I'll have a short video on our YouTube page soon on it as well. We also added another big humidifier we picked up for 5 bucks at an auction. That should help get the humidity up a bit, we're still not hitting our target VPD. Our environment isn't hurting us at this stage, but it could be better.

Had a good week this week. Lots of growth on the autos and the MK Ultra. We started flowering on the MKs yesterday and the pistils showed up instantly. We're also getting pistils on the Quarter Pounder and the AK-47 x Critical Mass. We got some new genetics this week as well so I'll be setting up some new diaries to cover those. We switched the bulbs in the MK room to the HPS bulbs as well. Will probably change the auto room over as soon as I see more growth on the bud sights. Clones from the aerocloner are finally taking root so I might setup a diary for those strains which include, benevolence and chupacabra. Since the cloner is working so well we took more clones and fired up the 2nd unit. Total of 68 clones on hand now. I should be able to take 34 each week now in perpetuity, hopefully find some dispensaries to carry them for us.

The autos started their stretch last week and have blown us away with the growth. Every one of them is doing great and we have not had a single issue yet. The AK x Critical Mass has grown to a staggering 3ft from just 1ft a week ago, can it's truly impressive. The Quarter Pounder is likewise growing through the roof! We also have the cloning situation nailed down and producing 75 clones every 2 weeks from MK Ultra, Benevolence, Chupacabra, and Skywalker OG. The aerocloners were a great idea and is allowing us to distribute our clones to dispensaries for sale and since we are cloning them hydroponically we will be able to offer clones for both soil and hydro growers. Neat! We also started, from seed, some new mother plants from the awesome guys over at 7East Genetics. We chose Blueberry Dragon Fire, Deaths Breath, and God's Plan B. We are very excited to see what these produce, they come from a great lineage and breeder. The MK Ultra's are hitting week 3 of flower and looking great. The smell has started to get very pungent with hints of lemon and pine. We have a couple that seem to be doing less great, but after analyzing the runoff we have determined we have lockout on those 2 due to pH fluctuation. Not sure how that happened but we went ahead and flushed those plants out. Hoping they recover, but if not no great loss, we have hundreds more coming!

Week 3.5 of flowering for the MK Ultra's, they are looking very healthy and we are expecting at least 6lbs from these 40 plants. We also have 75 clones being transplanted to their final pots today and they will be moved into the auto room to veg for 2 or 3 more weeks before we move then into the flower room. The AK x Critical Mass is kicking some serious ass and it's looking like we will be getting at least 3 ounces from each plant! The OG Kush Auto seeds are just bunk, out of the 50 we have planted only 15 have actually popped. However, they are absolutely gorgeous. I expect to get 3oz or more from each Quarter Pounder auto and the Northern Lights are a couple of weeks behind so I can't say yet on those.
