Great job.... 1 tip to keep clones from yellowing when rooting is to reduce the light intensity to a bare minimum even ambient light in a room is enough. Just want to keep them from flowering. They yellow because light drives photosynthesis and that requires nutrients so until the grow roots to take them up its best to have them photosynthesize as little as possible and let them use the stored energy to create roots.Prior to flipping my last crop to flower, I clipped 8 small stems and stuck them into Rapid Rooter plugs. 6 of those clippings developed roots. I kept them alive under a make-shift rig with a few household LED bulbs that had the diffusers removed.

I harvested the crop from my tent, I transplanted the healthiest looking 2 plants into real pots:

(I gave the other 4 plants to a friend)
The pots are filled with 90% MG Organic Pro 10% Perlite.
After a couple of weeks of real light and some General Hydro nutrients, I climbed up onto the pots and stomped on my plants. (I jest, but you get the idea)

The tent is around 70-85F/65% Humidity. Light is Viperspectra 2020 Pro (or something like that)
I figure they are good to flip to flower now, but interested in feedback -- would there be any significant advantage to a little longer in veg??
Peace!

The non-uniformity of the canopy bugs me, but it's my own fault for not taking better care of the clones while they were on deck for the tent.
Kind words, OD. I do feel like I am understanding the plants a tiny bit better. Have had to work hard for it because my instincts are pretty much always wrong.Nice work mate your starting to get more green on your thumb not so black anymore
wouldn't hurt to mend that one a bit better, maybe wrap some tape around one branch above, then wrap it toward the others side, make it a bit stronger, or even use the ties, same way, but above, keeping the two stems from moving apart from one another.
My condolences on the passing of your friend.wouldn't hurt to mend that one a bit better, maybe wrap some tape around one branch above, then wrap it toward the others side, make it a bit stronger, or even use the ties, same way, but above, keeping the two stems from moving apart from one another.
Flowers look fantastic, such a beautiful grow you've got going on there.
Dude your a freaking doppelganger for a friend of mine that just passed away a little while back.
