Run #8 16 plants 9 strains in 5 gal bags

[Buzzy12]

These plants had a 6 week veg cycle, much better sized plants for this room. Still trying out some new strains and prioritizing variety. This is my first run with any of the clones I got from @Trustfall

Frostette
Papaya Punch × Okie
Lemon Bubblegum Cookies

Also have
The Brunch F² (PBB × Mimosa)

Dosi Punch
Chocolate Pie
Platinum Kush Breath Remix
Grease Monkey

I'm still using a 75% Sunshine Advanced Grower's Mix #4/25% Coast of Maine Stonington Blend. Hand watering through veg with organic Advanced Nutrients line. Still adding in Alchemist Stout MSA, I'm switching over to Power Si Bloom during flower because I cannot consistently get Alchemist Stout MSA. Power Si during the veg cycle once I run out of the Alchemist Stout MSA. Cannazym is the root enzyme I've been using during flower, Sensizym during veg. Switch over to Greenleaf nutrients for the flower tent that has the flexitank autopot setup. Once a week during veg the plants get a microbe cocktail of Azos/Mykos WP/Mikrobs/Bio Rhizotonic. Then one more week in flower until the trellis goes up.

I defoliated these plants before day 1 of flower, at day 14, and again at day 28, trying something a little bit different this grow. I did a major defoliation before day 1, then just the bigger fan leaves the next two, did some lollipopping at day 14. Trying to keep RH down as best as possible and get as much light as possible to the flowers. Light intensity has been steadily increasing from the beginning of flower from 40% to 80% for this week. There's 4 HLG 750 Diablo in there between 15-24" away from the top of the canopy the best I can. It has been unusually hot up here in Maine and I don't have enough AC power to keep up so temps have been up a bit higher than ideal, closer to 82-85° lights on/70-75° at night. We've had some cooler days recently and the room has been closer to 78-80° lights on/65-70° at night. PPFD has been between 1000-1500 since week 1. Hoping to take this room to week 9, we just finished week 5 today. I'm thinking some of these strains will come down at week 8, we'll see how the next month goes.

Hope you took some clones from these? I'd imagine it was not cheap to purchase these from what i've been reading on clone purchases.

Not much is cheap when it comes to buying high quality goods. For what you're getting, I think it's very fair pricing. For the time and effort it takes to properly phenohunt a breeders seed pack in hopes of finding a winner, getting a phenohunted clone for the same price if not less is hard to beat.

I'm up to 23 mother plants! Got another phenohunt finishing up in the next week or two. I'll be adding in another 5 strains pretty soon. I'm a professional grower up here in Maine. I'm licensed to cultivate an unlimited amount of plants within 500 sq ft of mature canopy, 1000 sq ft of 24" or less non flowering plants.

Ohhh i did'nt realize this. No offence i hope from me? I just thought you bought them, but if you grew from mothers than cheers man. As a small rec. grower myself i do take clones from my favorites all the time and i encourage others to do the same. Yes i love good genetics and seeds. I just can't afford to buy them every grow season. I sure did'nt mean any offence. I salute you for keeping great strains going.

All my mother plants are either clones I've purchased and kept around or breeder seed packs that I've phenohunted and kept a mother plant. The longest I've kept any mother around is the MAC plant, almost three years at this point. No offense taken at all.
