Is this lineup in stores yet? Plants look great, any training or topping done? If you just flipped it's goin to be a jungle in there.

Great Set up you have. Plants seem to like it too!!

i'm just getting into Aero but i am curious about the Clonex for Aero cloning... never checked it out. What is it exactly?? (nute, hormone, b vitamin???)

I don't believe Cultured Solutions is in stores yet but I'm pretty sure it will be available to retailers in a month or so...
yes training is being done...let the plants go for 14 days or so then started power cropping not topping, just a pinch and a bend...power cropping will continue every 2-3 days up threw the second week of flower...Sometimes large fans are pushed aside and tucked under flower sites trying to avoid damaging the plant but opening up flower sites as much as possible...

Thanks for the look! More pics to come in a day or so....Med

Thanks for the look. Clonex, power clone, olivias all the same IMO but like mentioned above power clone is extremely pricey and Olivias is so weak its a 3/4 cup to gallon ratio so we stick with clonex...decent price, slightly concentrated and clean...
I wouldn't call clonex solution a hormone but a nutrient mix specific for rapid root growth and stress re leaf..plus it says clonex on the bottle it's gota work right...lol

Good luck....Med

I've been supercropping my plants in veg, I was told after the flip it's not recommended, stress,herm,etc. Have you been happy with your results? Curious because I have wanted to but held back from doing so.

I hear ya loud and clear on the hydroton! If you don't rinse the growstones real good you will notice slight build up of GRIT in the bottom of the buckets. Not saying it wont happen even if you rinse them but it will definitely cut way down on the amount of GRIT. We like the stones for there incredibly stable PH and their ability to wick...Haven't noticed any growstone residue on the inline filter so would have to say whatever GRIT does make it into the water is staying in each bucket not floating around or effecting anything..

Peace...Med

Super crop away my friend...Super cropping is most important in the first 2 weeks of flower as this is when the most vigorous and substantial growth will happen...veg is mostly for root zone establishment, first 2 weeks of flower are for plant structure, and from there on out is bud building...

Although there are many ways to skin a cat I would find what works best for you and rock it...

Peace...Med

UPDATE! Day 16 of flower! The plants are really loving Cultured Solutions, at this point they are consuming about 10 gals a day and eating about 50ppm per day. Last foliar was done the morning of these pics and super cropping has ended.

Look close you can see where the plant repaired itself during the super cropping process...

Swapped out the junk tri-meter and started using a Blulab combo meter...turns out ppm was off on the tri-meter so this is the actual ppm at this point..

Thanks for the looks...Peace Med..

Looking good, Im interested in seeing the finish! You just have to love the root structure and mass that the uc produces, when done right! Looks like you've got a good handle on it, good luck!

How is that blue lab? Was thinking of ditching my 2-3 cheaper hanna meters for that exact one...

Yes, switched to blulab and not looking back..The combo meter shown is good if you need a portable meter because it runs on batteries...this one is sick because you can put the soil probe on it and use it for soil/soilless growing then put the other probe on and check your res! But if your looking for a meter for your under current, blulab guardian for sure...Just happened to fall into this one so gona rock it for a while..


Thanks...Med
