Tired of coughing up phlegm?? Here at GrowKind we switched from smoking to vaporizing 10 years ago, and our lungs have never felt better. In that time we have tried every vaporizer you can think of including domes, digital vaporizers, light bulbs, heat guns, and the volcano. Some work better than others but after all that time we still go back every day to our vape pens. Do yourself and your lungs a favor and head over to Vaporwarehouse. Don't Smoke! -- Vaporize!
Named Orchid because I like the name, and I was on the "O's" with my alphabetical naming scheme for female plants from seed.
This is the NL#5 mother of many clones to come. This is one of my favorite strains.
She was given Low-Stress-Training while cuttings were taken. That means the apical meristem was never cut. This plant was germinated in July 2004 and kept in stasis with small pots and fluorescent lighting. I am now vegging her under HPS in a 7-gallon pot for flowering.
This will be a veg/flower area covering 20 sq feet for the 1KW HPS. The larger plant in the back is the NL5 in a 10-gallon pot. The others are Afghani, Humboldt Indica, and NL5 clones.
I trimmed most of the lowest branches and nodes on the NL#5 at the onset of flowering to promote more bud development on the tops. The rest of the plants are NL#5, Humboldt Indica, and Afghani clones. I had more clones successfully rooted than I could veg so I'm flowering them at 1 foot.
Garden temperatures are at 75F lights on and 65F lights off. I have air circulating in and out of the garden every 2 minutes, and oscillating fans blowing across the tops of the plants. This allows the flowers to be within 3" of the glass on the 1KW HPS.
