So my cloning is a little rusty. But here I have 6 clones of Black Velvet. Clearwater Genetics released it as a fuck you after a problem with another breeder happened like about 1-2 months ago. I was lucky to get 4 from them for 10$ I then grew these out and made 20 and luckily they have all been alive but it’s time I started these babies. She is sharing a tent with the apical Project but I will soon have them in there own tent after my other grow finishes. Thank you for watching. See you guys next week.

Clones seem to have taken to their pots. They seem sturdier than last week. I am seeing some new growth. I bought a Autopot system one lucky clone will be chosen to be grown their for next journal where we will be trying out drip hydro. If I can get another one we will have a head to head drip hydro vs Athena blended. One more week and I’ll switch out the sf1000d for a Ts1000 see you all next week.

Going pretty well. Noticeable growth happening. Plant in front left has grower past the first trellis net, Ts1000 has been added and sf1000d taken out. Might add second ts1000. Plant I’m front is 15in tall the shortest is 10in might take that one and put it in the Autopot system for the next journal. Did a small defoliation to get as much penetration as possible. Thank you all for tuning in and see you again next week.

Got a little more stretch to em. They seem to have grew 3in stretch seems to have stopped. The smallest one is still 10in. I changed the grow method because it’s more of a SOG than a Scrog grow. I know harvest will be small because I have them no veg time but I have another clone I’m about to put in some coco. Everything is still the same. Did small defoliation but doesn’t really need it as plants are fairly small and sharing a tent with the other journal I got going thanks again for all you that are watching you are all amazing people have a great day.

Going pretty well. Added a second ts1000 to ensure they get their own light and ensure they grow well. Nothing crazy has happened. The smallest plant has stretched a little more but seems like all stretch has stopped will taper down the nutrients next week.

So I ended up taking one of the Black Velvet clones out and put it to reveg. I realized I switched the lights too late. They really haven’t grown seems like I’m gonna get little popcorn nugs but I chop that out to my fault not the strain. I’ve gotten bigger nugs when I use the TS1000 for the whole grow. Now I know. Even though harvest will be small I cannot wait they seem real frosty getting some color on some fan leaves EC has been tapered down to 2.0 this week. Next week we drop it to 0.8 we are almost at the finish line cannot thank you all enough and cannot wait to regrow this strain properly and experience it’s real potential. See you all next week.

Took video of them this week you can really see some of the fan leaves getting real dark which I love!!! I did start a second journal of this exact same strain but I’m gonna try and get the optimal environment for that so make sure to be on the look out for that. They’re getting dense even tho they’re under a crappy light. This weeks EC is .8 then we flush for the next 7-10 days. Thank you all again for watching.
