I will be starting a log from my current clones and continuing until the grow is finished.

Equipment: flower room 600w Hps fan/filter / vegging room is 2 2ft 4bulb t5 lights with half blue and half red bulbs, Cloning area has 2 4ft 2 bulb t12 shop lights.

The clones are Kushberry taken off vegging females.
I will first take them from the clone dome (in rockwool) and put them into
casino coin cups, with a pencil sized hole drilled about an inch from the bottom.

I will then fill the coin cup halfway with perilite and then spray the plant and perilite with ph'd water then transplant. I will then let it stay under the clone light for 1 week until the roots hit the resevoir, then I will move it to the vegging area for 1 week, then transplant to 2gal buckets, veg for 1 week then cut clones, then veg 1 more week, then put into flower.

I will be posting pictures within the next couple of days, 3 of the kushberry are showing roots, when there are 6 i will start this log. so hopefully within the next day or 2.

If you have any questions feel free to ask, I am a new grower and I am currently on my 3rd cycle, my 1st harvest is in 3 weeks and I am really excited about it. My first harvest is Medibud. So far all of my cycles have been in hempy buckets and I think it is the easiest possible way to grow.

Happy Growing!

The clones are ready and I have transplanted them all into casino style coin cups in which ive turned into hempy buckets.
With a pencil size hole about an inch from the bottom. they will veg in here for about a week then i will transplant them into 2gal buckets for another week, and then cut clones off them and veg for 1 more week before flowering.

Feel free to ask any question and give any comments.
Happy Growing.

Week 3 from clone

Transplanted them into 2 gallon buckets in pure perilite with a hole drilled 2 inches from the bottom for over flow.

I will let them grow in here for a week till they get another foot tall, then i will take clones, veg for 1 last week then put into flower.

I cant post pictures here.. they;re too big and its too much effort to resize each and every picture. But they are doing amazing :) I topped them and them topped those tops vegged for 6 weeks, they are now at day 5 of flower
 
quick update since i cant post pics.. I tried again to only fail.. They should make it easier to post pictures here.. Every other site accepts them just they way they are..

Anywho.. I supercropped half of the new tops 2nd week into flower, and they are doing awesome. they are all 5+ feet tall and they are into week 6 of flower
 
Final update for this log..

Hempy Buckets were fun, but every little problem exists with it...
New growers should be told to grow in soil. Not a complicated DWC system..

I will one day go back and try again, but for now to get some real yeilds, ive switched to Soil.
