Tropical_CIS_Garden Rooting week, there are slight issues with humidity inside the dome, but everyone is alive.

Tropical_CIS_Garden Due to issues with the Supersprouter, the dome was removed for 3 days, during which 6 unrooted clones died. Terrible mistake that won't happen again. Now there are 8 clones left, 3 of them seem to be very affected and 5 are rooted. The vents of the dome were kept open; however, by the end of the week, they were closed to maintain humidity inside. Next week, they will be fertilized with Mills to feed the rooted clones. The mother of these clones is alive and big, and more cuttings will be taken if necessary.

Tropical_CIS_Garden Only 5 clones are left alive. The humid environment inside the dome kept the substrate very wet, which caused problems with rooting. This environment is perfected, but it’s necessary to normalize the watering and substrate humidity. This strain is the best we’ve grown, so this group will stay intact. More clones will be taken to complete it. VPD: 0.7 1.0

Tropical_CIS_Garden VPD Range: 0.5 - 1.0 kPa. This week, 5 more clones were cut from the same mother to complete this grow according to the method to be used, and they were inoculated with mycorrhiza. The humidity usually escapes from the dome, which is why the new clones have struggled to stand up; however, it seems that by keeping this environment under control, they will rise. The soil moisture is more consistent now, and Elemental from Roots Organics will be used in the waterings to maintain soil fertility. On the last day, leaves were trimmed from the new clones, and support was added to help them. Preventive foliar insecticide is being applied: neem oil, potassium soap, and diatomaceous earth.

Tropical_CIS_Garden VPD Range: 0.7 - 1.1 kPa 1 clone is dead so now there are 9 plants. 2 of them are having a bit of trouble rooting, maybe due to very dry periods, but they still seem to be fighting for their lives. With the Elemental, the older clones recovered. The soil dries out every 3 or 4 days, watered with heringa 15 ml per plant. Preventive foliar insecticide is applied at the end of the week. Potassium soap, neem oil, and diatomaceous earth diluted in water. Everything seems to be going well in this group, the delay they have will be used to keep them behind group G.

Tropical_CIS_Garden VPD Range: 0.6 - 1.1 kPa Due to dehydration, 1 old clone died this week. On January 9th, 3 more clones were taken due to the losses in previous weeks. It is expected to adjust rooting times well among all. This dome no longer retains moisture inside, so it will be necessary to acquire another one. The foliar insecticide was applied 2 times this week: potassium soap, neem oil, diatomaceous earth, and Acaridox (acaricide).

Tropical_CIS_Garden VPD Range: 0.7 - 1.1 kPa. It's a tough week for these clones since the dome doesn't contain the necessary humidity to keep them rooting; another humidity dome is needed. For now, they're getting routine foliar insecticides (Neem oil, potassium soap, diatomaceous earth, and acaricide). We're also trimming the leaves that seem to be done and those that are weighing down the new ones. 2 more losses for this grow by the end of the week. It seems like we can still replenish with more cuttings, but the health of the mother will be assessed.

Tropical_CIS_Garden VPD Range: 0.7 - 1.1 kPa. Unfortunately, the environment inside this dome isn't very stable, the soil is very deceptive because it's so tiny, which caused the death of a couple more plants. Now there are 6 live clones, and they are already rooted. This week I applied foliar fungicide with Bioprotection BD Plus, Bioprotection TR + BSLIN, and Clonostachys at 60 ml each per liter of water. And the routine insecticide: Neem oil, potassium soap, diatomaceous earth 5 ml per liter of water each. It's being considered to join this group with Group G to strengthen the next flowering cycle.

Tropical_CIS_Garden Last week of this group as it will merge with group G to provide more consistency for the upcoming harvest. Only 2 survived by the end of the week due to watering issues. They are being transplanted into small pots from group G and are being given light at 50 cm. Solid roots on these transplanted clones. This grow will continue in group G.
