Miracle alien cookies 4x4 Scrog MID GROW Coco Show

Cut 4 clones of each and keep the moms until confirmed rooted... should be about perfect timing if you need 3 weeks. 10 days to root and 10 more should be ripe for transplant...

Looking great btw.

Thanks, so you're saying don't flower this generation of clones at all? Just take cuttings and flower out those? Which ones would I keep as mothers?

Keep in mind these are random phenos except 2 or 3 of them that I've connected to the original. #4 and #2

1 veg tent and 2flower... Basically you need to calculate your general flower time... hard to do with 2 tents.. if you do 2 flower tents and veg for 4-4.5 weeks with a 9 week flower then you just keep rotating. You make up for loss of yield from not scroggin by having 2 harvest.

I mean if you can flower both tents and just do veg under subpar conditions... maybe SOG if you have the plant count. But then you just keep moms under a low light... cut clones as needed veg under whatever ya can and with SOG you need small plants anyhow so they don't need much light. Say veg 2-3 week and load em in small and flip.

I know but I'm tired MAAANNN! LOL but seriously, I'm getting a little burnt out on it and wanna just not have to think so much! A little break in between essentially three fully completed 4x4's might be nice.

A veg tent need 1/3-1/2 less light than a flower tent because you can run light longer. So you don't need a killer light but just a space with a decent light... not even a tent. They are not pushed to hard in veg so they should be fine under non ideal temp and humidity.

This is just thinking outlook to maximize yield in your situation.

Oh my bad if I plant count just do like 20 tiny plants and toss en in and flip.. should be no work other than water.

You have restrictions on how many plants? Sorry I'm high and my autocorrect is English challenged

Jumpingspider said:

So one scenario, after harvesting and drying, I will have 8 plants in 2 tents all flowering at once, but with some clones and mommas on the side, and the other scenario I will have 4 plants flowering, the next generation of clones going, and will be ready to start round 3 immediately.


I feel like the timing of successive rounds at the rate of growth I've been seeing will be rubbing up on the previous cycle. Meaning, I need to be able to scrog in the veg tent to begin with, and just be ready to flip to 12/12.


What would you do?



I could either set up a small tent or customize the work bench to

No not really. I just think I'm going to have far more than I need and don't wanna waste time or energy. I'm lazy

Ahh you and me both... thats why I plan to do SOG no training, unlikely I have to do and pruning and just have to water em... but I do have autofeed so feeding 20 small plants may not sound appealing to you.

Should make trimming a lot easier too

Looks nice i think you can fit 2 or 3 more big pots in that 4x4

Nice being able to trim the whole crop in an hour or so.

I actually had twelve 5 gallon fabric pots in the 4x4 at one point, but that was because I started this as a pheno hunt and knew going in that I'd probably end up with 6 female.

The problem is not the amount of floorspace but the amount of space for nugs. I could probably fill the whole tent with 1 plant but I would need to veg for a while.

Exactly. I am already wanting to try automated feeding but now you're giving me more compelling reasons to do it!! How dare you make a logical argument!

Obligatory budpic day 47

Ok so lemme see...

Call the current cycle Mothers or M1s. They are in tent 1. I have 10 Clones in Tent 2 (t2) call them C1s. I grow C1 big enough to take a second batch of clones call them C2.

When M1 is done drying move 5 C1s into T1 and move 1 CMH into T2.

Now I have 40 or so clones rooted in tent 3, and 10 in flower, 5 in T1 5 in T2, but only know what 2 of them are, so I need to pick the best one or 2 to become the mothers (M2) after C1 is harvested. So at that point I'll have harvested the C1s and taken Clones from M2 for the next cycle.

Now what do i do with the remaining 36 C2s that I have invested resources into preparing in case they turn out to be the chosen pheno? This is a huge waste.

Flower them and smoke them bishes

Yeah. That.

1. Chop M1 and hang in T1.
2. Take C2 clones.
3. Start flowerin ten C1 in T2 under CMH.
4. When M1 is dry, move five C1 to T1, also under CMH.

Thanks for letting me yap.

Here's a quickie.
Catching the light



Starting to fill out on day 49. Officially week 7. Time to get the last week of pk and its time to taper off the nutrients for the final couple of weeks before flush.



And I took a few extra close up with the loupe here. Love the quality of this tiny lens.

This shit is so fucking frosty. I can't wait to smoke it
