I grew mom 5 weeks from seed and then took everything but the 3rd node to make clones. I need 4 of the 6 clones I cut to root to start the next phase of this grow
The mother plant is doing well, and I've been doing a little bit of defoliating as she grows. I'll be giving away some clones today, and should have a small and manageable mother for future clones afterwards.
I've been slowly acclimating the clones by opening the vents in my propagator each day, they are completely open now. Will be removing the dome on day 10 and it's sink or swim time for them. Looks like a few of them should root.
Looking forward to moving the mom into the little tent and getting those clones ready to flower
Only 3 of the clones in coco have rooted, and a fourth is looking like it might die. The biggest cuttings did best for sure. I picked up an aerocloner and took a bunch more cuttings from the mother plant. It has been chopped down to fit the small tent.
Need 4 good healthy clones to start the next phase of this grow, hoping to have them moved into the big tent by next week.
Only two of the six clones in coco have survived... one of them looks pretty haggard, the other seems to be doing well. The clones in the oxyclone are looking much healthier, and are starting to put out roots at day 12. I cut the mother plant back again, and have another batch of clones at day 3. I used rooting hormone on these ones, and I'm interested to see if they pop roots sooner than day 12. Highly recommend using clone machines, it really simplified things.
Going to veg for a week, then choose the best 4 to transfer over to my autopots. Going to set a scrog net up at 12 inches from the pot and veg until the screen is 70% full
The clones are happy and healthy. I've transplanted over to the autopots. I'm still hand watering as the roots get established... will be hooking everything up next week. Once it's all hooked up, I will set up the scrog net and contiue to veg until the screen is about 2/3 full.
Have the autopots hooked up. I can't top dress my organic nutes with them, it just wont work... so I'm back to using Advanced nutrients ph perfect line. Day 2 of flower today.
I've underestimated the stretch again. It's been a week from flipping and the clones have doubled in height. This strain is supposed to be indica dominant, but it looks like it could potentially triple in height during the stretch. I'm going to flower the next batch of clones sooner.
I supercropped and put a scrog net in to train the lower growth that will start shooting skyward. I still have 18 inches between the aircooled 1000w hps and the top of the canopy. I might have to get pretty creative to keep a safe distance going forward. We'll see how much more they stretch these next couple of weeks.
Day 30 of flower and things are moving along. I've supercropped every branch and strap my light directly to the tent poles to gain a few more inches. These girls are tall! I had to cut a couple of buds out that were bleached and burnt, but nothing too major. The stretch should be over, and I have about 9 inches between the glass and canopy. Also turned my 1000w down to 750. We'll see how things go.
I'll flower the next batch of clones sooner, and hopefully not deal with the height issues next round.
