New Room - G13 Haze and Blue Gelato 41

TheManicOrganicDK Had a busy period, so i didn´t get to take photos of the first 3 weeks of the plants lifes, but for posterity, i will upload this grow anyway. Just had to cut down a grow due to budrot caused by insane amounts of rain and lacking equipment to remedy that issue, so this time around, i will make sure that does not happen again. This grow will be 2 of my favourites, G13 Haze and Blue Gelato 41. Both plants has been seed grown and then vegged until able to take cuttings from them. (14 weeks before i cloned) The clones were cut on a biodynamic flower day, dipped first in Clonex, then in root explosion. (mycorrhizae) and then into a jiffy and a small "greenhouse" to be able to keep humidity high. Roof comes off after 5-6 days and the plants will now have their lights dialed in to around 10-12 DLI. 2 weeks after cutting the jiffies has a lot of roots, so its transplanted into 1L pots, in Light-Mix, with a bit of mycorrhizae added and gets their first nutrient watering, with RootJuice and a bit of FishMix and their DLI upped to about 14-16. Early week 3 they were repotted again, into 3.5L pots, as the soil was pretty root "bound", this time in All-Mix and also here i added a bit of mycorrhizae for better root development. Works wonders, imho. DLI upped to about 20-22. I have found that repotting frequently, with my conditions and genetics, it seems that when going with clones, its better to repot often, to get the rootball developed in the pots, before repotting. Seed grown plants has the benefit of the taproot forming, which clones doesn´t and before i started doing frequent repotting, i often found a non-rooted zone in the center of the big pots, but repotting seems to remedy that issue well.

TheManicOrganicDK This post is 3 weeks progress, starting W4 and up till i switch to 12/12. Week 4 was last repotting time, transplanted into 12L pots, where i once again added some mycorrhizae to the root zone. Had an annoying issue when transplanting, as the soil i bought was insanely hydrofobic, so i assume that the store have had it for a long time AND also stored it wrong. (too hot and dry) So it took several days to get it rewetted and functioning again, with use of surface reactents. DLI was dialed up to about 34-35. Week 5 was just all about watching and admirering and a bit of topping the plants. One again DLI was dialed up to about 48, for the first 3 days and last go with root-juice for these girls. In the second half of W6, i dialed down DLI untill the switch to 12/12 and ended with about 28 DLI. Weeks 4, 5 and 6, i changed light schedule 2H pr week, from 18/6 to 16/8, then 16/8 to 14/10 and ended on 12/12 and at every shift i recalculated the DLI to fit accordingly to the ligh-on hours. Week 6 i did some defoliation, so the girls are ready for flowering. These pictures are from first day of flower, a few hours after light on. Had them in total darkness for 36H, as i once was told a story about faster switch to flower, if introducing an dark periode between veg and flowering. Might be psychological, but i do notice a faster shift, but do not know if this practice is really any good for the plants themselves.
