Hey everyone, in the latest of times ive finally started germinating 2 Caboose's! They will be grown in soil! 8 Feb Germination started, Little general info: Both seeds germinated in less then 30hours. Powder feeding started -/-. Technique used; I am using acouple of cotton pad's, keeping them in a pitch-dark box with a humidifier on the left and a heating-element to the right, with the lid ontop of the box semi-open for letting fresh oxygen and a fine fog from the humid'r down & in. Condititions; For the first 8hours of germination i had 26°C (78,8F) & 99% RH, i later changed this to 23°C (73,4F) & 75%-85% RH. I'm keeping such a low temp since seeds are indica. Keeping them moist & a steady eye. Setup i will use for propogating & vegg'in is my 200W CFL & a little Vents-100 fan. The setup i am using for flowering is a 400w hps at the moment, hoping to get another one before week 4 flowering. Mylar on the walls. I have prepared a container for their seedling stage, it is a small pot made out of mainly peat, i have some positive experience from it, but i've done alittle experiment this time; I first made a very "airy" mix with only the smallest hydroton pellets, a soil already containing "mini-clay-peb" & some vermiculite. I put the mix in theese peat-containers, i dig out the middle of the mix, putting only soil i the middle of the container, then i water it heavy, like flush them. GreenHouse powder feeding all the way! My other Caboose, you can find it here! Peace!

Hi Hunters! So while waiting to join the cup i decided to make a "mini" grow. I plant 2 Super Critical Auto's under 400W HPS on 18/6 on/off.(mm.. 200w each) Changed to 16/8. Ty HC01! Status: Growing/Blooming. (last edited 3/12) Started 5/11 Day: 29 [100% germination rate] _____ The soil i'll be using consist of: (Starting EC is 1~. PH:6~) 45% "Bright" -Sphagnum moss peat. (http://en.wikipedia....i/Sphagnum_moss) 45% "Dark" -Sphagnum moss peat. 5% -Sand. 5% Bark mulch (grinded pretty fine, looks like coco) Mixed this with alittle Hydroton(clayball)* and Vermiculite.(i put rougly 1 part verm/5 parts soil) *=Also on bot & top. (" Decayed, compacted sphagnum moss has the name of peat or peat moss. This is used as a soil conditioner which increases the soil's capacity to hold water and nutrients by increasing capillary forces and cation exchange capacity. This is often necessary when dealing with very sandy soil, or plants that need increased or steady moisture content to flourish. A distinction is sometimes made between sphagnum moss, the live moss growing on top of a peat bog, and 'sphagnum peat moss' (North American usage) or 'sphagnum peat' (British usage), the latter being the decaying matter underneath ") ________ The nutrient i'm using: Greenhouse Powder Feeding "mostly indica".(4Free on the cup) Started lightly day 11, with around 0.1g~/L. Up'd 0.3 day 14 before Dam. (50%feeding/50%tap) 0.5g/L day 18/19. Flush atm. ________ And my pot's for my pot: 3,6L > 11L. (made 14/11) Handwatering. Peace.

About us
Strain Hunters is a series of documentaries aimed at informing the general public about the quest for the preservation of the cannabis plant in the form of particularly vulnerable landraces originating in the poorest areas of the planet.
Cannabis, one of the most ancient plants known to man, used in every civilisation all over the world for medicinal and recreational purposes, is facing a very real threat of extinction. One day these plants could be helpful in developing better medications for the sick and the suffering. We feel it is our duty to preserve as many cannabis landraces in our genetic database, and by breeding them into other well-studied medicinal strains for the sole purpose of scientific research.
