first grow pics - from december 8 2009

here's a picture of all the plants in their little home

i am using a wardrobe that i purchased from ikea and slightly modified with my crazy sawzall hacking skills, the dimensions are 18" deep x 28" wide x 68" tall

the lamp is a 250watt hps, some chinese brand, not sure, it does the job and is my first real grow light, other than this i have attempted to grow outside and with florescent lighting

there is a small fan bringing air into the grow box from the bottom, another fan up at the top expelling air, the idea is that fresh room temperature air enters at the bottom, hot air rises so heated air will go up from the light and exit with the top fan

the strains from left to right are, 2 trainwreck plants i got as clones from eden therapy in hollywood, the middle plant is a xj13 (jack herer x g13) i got as a clone from los angeles patients and caregivers in hollywood (shipped to so cal from oaksterdam nurseries), the 2 on the right are hindu skunk which are also oaksterdam nurseries clones i got from lapcg



notice how lanky the xj13 is in comparison to her neighbors the hindu skunk...i have noticed that the hindu skunk plants are far more tolerant to heat and fertilizers as well as under or over watering when compared with the xj13, these 3 once had an og kush neighbor, i got all 4 clones at the same time, the og kush plant was so much more fragile, we think it is dead and it's sitting in it's pot outside on the balcony, i just don't have the heart to yank it up and dispose of it

i am not sure of the exact date that i got the oaksterdam clones, it has been about 2 months though i believe, they aren't that big because i almost killed them all by over fertilizing them, so they are stunted a bit, hopefully i won't make the same mistake with the 2 trainwreck plants

here's 2 more of the trainwreck




here is the xj13



last but not least here are the hindu skunk plants
