Thanks guys, was really guessing at a week. I had been picking up the red cups every few days to get a feel for them but haven't mastered the art yet.

These have been weird so far, some days they seem like they don't grow and others I can literally watch them grow every few hours. So far so good tho, will have a pH and ppm meter soon just waiting for it to come in. The drops are getting me by for now with pH and I haven't started using nutes yet so didn't need the ppm meter.

Will probably start using different concentrations of nutes on some of the plants to see what works best. Probably around 1/2 to 1/4 the recommended dose.

Having problems with humidity so playing around with exhaust timings now. Running exhaust for 15min every hour instead of every 2 hrs. Keep losing plants in 1 of the pots, which I have 2 possible causes of the problem for.

1 is that my heater was blowing straight at that pot so I am guessing it could have burned the plant from the direct heat being blasted on it.

2 is there is something in the soil of that pot which is killing the plants I put into it.

I moved the heater so it's not hitting any of the pots directly but when it's running some really hot air is being blow towards them so we will see what happens.

Plants looking much better today. Discovered I was making my water closer to 5pH instead of 6 so replaced all the water I had stored with new water pH'd to 6 using my meter.

Will keep a close eye on them until I get this down to a science. I think the soil has been saving my but with the pH being off or the plants just like it lower.

Some recent pictures. Just got clones from 5 plants that were ready, the rest should be good to go within a week i think.

I also found a note on my chimney from Santa to go check my tent and i found a bunch clones! Will post up the strains once i get a chance to look them up. Mostly sativa's and a couple indica.

Canopy is very thick with my main plants. Topped a few more today to fill up my ez clone and thin out the canopy.

Heater problem is offically solved, have it moved back as far as possible and then a osc fan in from to blow it around the room, the air coming out of the fan is gently warm.

So my plants were starting to get out of control and I had a bunch of verified females I wanted to get into bloom. I could see some of my clones in the ez clone starting to form roots, but the first clones i took don't show any signs of roots.

I ended up cloning the remaining plants which had not been topped yet, and also took a few more clones off others and threw the mothers into flower. Hopefully at least 1 clone survives from the moms I threw in flower. They are in jiffy pucks which should hopefully workout well since clones like slightly acidic environment.

Right now I have 7 Happa Haze and 9 unknown bagseed which I am guessing are Ogre in my flower room (also a few ogre in cups I didn't clone just gona see what they are since I have too many plants already lol) .

Topped 2 of the Happa Haze i just threw into bloom before it was too late and put the clones in beer cups with soil. We will see if they root well, i am kind of just experimenting with clones all types of ways since this is my first time. Some of the cuttings in the jiffy pucks look like they are doing well now that i added the dome and a heat mat under it. I spray them in the morning and at night with a fine mist of water and leave the hood off for a while to give them some fresh air.

Also found out a couple more plants were female and added them to the bloom tent in bigger pots. Rough Neck and Nepalese Watermelon. Yum yum, cant wait for all them to be done. Really excited for these unknown bag seed to start showing sex in the next weeks, i need to be sure to get the males out and any possible herms so i dont ruin my other strains.

Kicking ass right now. Humidity is starting to become a problem so playing with my timer settings on exhaust. If I need to will just let it run 24/7.

Finally starting to show sex, 2 I still have in beer cups I'm pretty sure are female which sucks. I assume I will have a couple males to weed out from the bag seed plants so ill just re-pot them in those.

Thanks man, I might pull the napelese watermelon because it's just way to stringy and barely has any buds on it. The Happa Haze stretched like crazy too so will prob not be growing that again either but at least those have some fat bud sites on em.

Next round I'll be running my Ogre bag seed since those are the nicest plants I have so far and also the dakini Kush, Rio Negro, rough neck since they are nice indica that grow short and fat.
