Very nice!
Its still early days as far as this harvest goes, another couple of days before its due to come down but the smell that hits me when I open that door is unmistakably Bubblegum. I've some kush in there too and that smells very different but hardly noticeable in there mask by Bubblegum. This really tastes like that classic sweet bazooka bubblegum, more so on the exhale.
I have been growing these particular clones from clones of clones of clones from plants/seeds I cracked just over a year ago and there definitely seems to be an improvement the more mature these clones become. They are dripping resin.

Nice work! Great thread man

I've noticed my clones often change from generation to generation as well, some more so than others

Thank you. I hope there's enough information here to help, encourage or even inspire others to have a grow. I get so much more than just stoned from growing, getting stoned is the bonus.
I've learned a lot from growing, the first thing being how little I know!
And thanks to yourself and others here I am on the right path to learning some more. That's interesting what you said about your clones. I have only found improvements in each generation BUT! There are many many factors so I couldn't put all the improvements I am seeing down to maturity of genetics although I am responsibly certain that plants, or rather their resin production is like wine. I am sure it could go bad but looked after its seems only to improve. I haven't done two grows, this time, exactly the same. Something has been different each time, if only the soil, its still a difference and needs to be factored in. This new soil I am using looks very much like the Biobizz All mix but its made here. I still add extra worm castings as I transplant the clones. The fertilizer and lights will be the same but I may need to tweek the nitrogen a little as I just don't know how much nutrients are already in this soil.
As one door closes, another opens.

I believe the handle is a craft knife but the blade is a " corn " removal blade I bought from a chemists, or drug store. I like to use a clean blade and one pf those plastic plant labels to support the stem I am cutting and to stop me cutting myself. Those blades are sharp.

I just use a disposable scalpel I get from the hydro store. Cheap plastic cutlery handle. Agree you need a clean, sharp blade.

I forget to pick those up everytime I am at that store. I always forget something. I've had that little craft knife handle for ages. The blades get tightened in a "cross" section thats threaded. Most flat scalpel type blades will fit. I am just about to go to work with it now. I've 70 cuttings to take from 44 Bubblegum + 3 Biker Kush Clones, so I had better get busy!

Nice thread man great pics keep it up Cobba regards OD.

Update: Bubblegum Clones on day 3 of 12/12.

Update: Bubblegum Clones on day 5 of 12/12.

Update: In the meantime....

Update: Like early days in any grow the first 11 days of 12/12 are slow and this grow is no different really. The plants are changing and that is now becoming more obvious. I've continued to water the plants that are in the 3 x1sq meter trays from the bottom of the 5 1/2 litre pots. I have two containers I use to water the plants not stood in trays so I can water those from the bottom of the pots as well, by standing the pots in the container instead of watering/ feeding them from the surface of the pots. I only have 2 so every time I water the plants I move the " next" 2 plants into the containers. This way every plant will get watered from the bottom as well as from the surface of the pots. I should just pick up a few more trays but I have blown my cannabis budget on LED's and although I hear you say " sure how much could 3 trays be?" I have a wife and I'd like to remain married. If I spend another dime on anything for that "grow room" it could be me and the trays! So I think those contianers are great .
Here's the Bubblegum girls at day 11 of 12/12. Only 45 days, there abouts, to go. The last photo is a Biker Kush Clone in flower same time as the bubblegum.

Update: Bubblegum Clones on day 11 of 12/12. All is well
They get watered/feed every other day. I give them 2 ml per litre of Biobizz Bloom, 1 ml per litre Biobizz Top Max.
By week 3 in 12/12 they will be on 3 ml of Bloom per litre. The Top Max remains the same at 1 ml per litre until week 4 of 12/12 when it jumps to 4ml per litre. The Biobizz Bloom goes to 4 ml per litre by week 4 in 12/12 as well.
They will get that every other day until the week before they finish.
I may need to introduce Biobizz Grow (Nitrogen) in small quantities over the next several weeks. The plants seem to be doing fine right now using the nitrogen provided in the Cre All Mix Soil and the small quantity in the Bloom. I shall waatch for yellowing of the leaves and add the Biobizz Grow as and when necessary. I always start at half the recommended amount. Its easy to add more later, its not so easy to unburn plants.
Less is more , more or less.

The 12 days of 12/12.
