New Grow With: Black Bubba, Cheshire Kush And Black Berry Train Wreck

[Dan789]

Progress, one more to transplant into the three gallon bag. Trying to make the transition as painless as possible, getting the soil up to the room temp prior to repotting, not disturbing the roots going into the new pots. Getting down into the low forties outside here, using mat heaters and a oil filled space heater. Mats temp controlled, mins in tent have been in the mid sixties, humidity 70 RH.

Chugging along, changed up nutrients to Botanicare pro blend, added in some cal mag and liquid karm along with a tbsp molasses to 5 gallons water. Changed to PH up/down versus vinegar/baking soda. Added in the remaining four T554 watt bulbs this last week. Lifted fixture to affect some stretching. Have one plant that might be male, watching that one especially, very lanky (back left side) and few nodes along the stem, but that may just be this genome. This is two months from seed for all but the smallest two, added that I probably slowed (at least two weeks) them down at the onset getting my feet under me keeping the seedlings alive. (First time popping seeds).
Temps dropping to low 40’s this week, low temps in tent maintained in mid 60’s after lights out.

Progress, growing nicely and took some clones Saturday, looking good so far.

Your plants look great. How tall will you grow them before you flip em?

 

[Dan789]

Thanks very much Rcubed. Just received my (Rapid Led) 12 cob light kit to assemble yet (waiting on some parts) then I’ll split these up into two 4x4 tents, I’m thinking about another two/three weeks before I’m ready for the flip, in no particular hurry.

 

[Dan789]

Just checking in, still growing nicely. Canopy getting a little more even.

 

[Dan789]

Just checked the clones I’ve had toning in the background, success.

 

[Dan789]

PS, first clones I’ve ever had grow, so no small success (for me).

Niiice!

I love the "checking for roots" phase.
Have to force myself not to look for a week, then I can't stop checking.

 

[Dan789]

Worse than waiting for a package to arrive, standing there almost tapping my foot.

 

[Dan789]

So almost two weeks, re-potted into 7 gallon pots, split into two tents and fired up the new light. Yesterday placed the netting up and did some work getting the canopy even by bending the tops over. Looking great so far, moving towards transitioning into bloom in a few days.

Those veros should help continue the wonderful journey you and these plants are on,ill be keeping my eye on this journal bud.

Also,what was your method for cloning? I've tried in just water in solo cups,no such luck and also tried in jiffy pellets on heat mat but I know where I screwed those up,had the pellets too wet and suffocated them I believe.

 

[Dan789]

So far my lucks at about 70% or so, cut clones, pull off extra leaves above propose 45 cut, into water, trim leaves, cut on a 45, dip in cloning gel, push into “rapid rooters” Rapid rooster soaked in water for a minute, squeeze out excess. Into cloning bed with hood, spray plenty of mist morning and night time. Not too much light, kept at room temp.

Nice that's along the lines of what I'm gunna try this time around only with jiffy pellets instead of rapid rooters,also thinking of trying to do an aloe water and soaking the pellets in that instead of using the clone gel or maybe trying both.

 

[Dunge]

Eleven clones, cut 13 days ago.
Stem spray with full strength Dip n Grow and placed into Rapid Rooter plugs over heat pad.
Put in dirt when roots show.

This is all I needed, so got a chance to destructively examine the extras.

Roots emerging from between vertical ridges on the stem.

Canopy progressing nicely started bloom, constructed a watering/feeding system with a pump and some assorted parts, making life easier by some small amount.

Going to ask a rhetorical question, anyone see anything off? Hint, don’t get your females too close though.
