Are you sure that they are males? Off that, I was just looking at one of my plants up close and I think one might be a herm. mabe from stress or heat. I don't know if it is but one side of the nod has a hair and the other side has a little round something. I will take a pic later. The both are flow. and were clones(female). I think I rather it be a herm. so I can get some good seeds from the plants

I'm pretty sure of two, still waiting for the other two and at this point I wouldn't mind a herm, more seeds would be cool.

Ribbet, I haven't changed the water because I'm afraid to expose the roots to the air, I don't know what will happen if I do, do you think it would be safe to lift the clone out the water to change it?

Hey,
Air is ok, its just light that you have to worry about. Thats why you able to lift the hum. lid and spray it when it is needed. I have read that some domes have like a one inch sq. hole on the top that you can open and close when you want to. You might want to let fresh air in once a day. but don't quote me on it.

Did you find that 500w light that I was talking about?

I really dont think it would hurt to expose it for a few seconds, but if your worried about it just pour fresh water into the cup over the sink, causing the old water to overflow. I mean it is an experiment right whats the worst you can do? kill your males?

I've never done it with pot but I've done it a million times with house plants, they seem to do better with fresh water. good luck

I have the dome lifted it's getting constant fresh air, I was thinking of adding air with a pulsar pump by placing the tube underneath the dome but they seem to be doing fine without it, also I haven't been to costco's yet, I may have to make do with what I've got.

Good point, but at the same time I want this to work therefore I do not want to kill them, I did get some rootone thinking about doing a couple from my girls, how many clones you think I could get off one plant at a time, do you think I could get away with two per plant?

420 it's ok to put them under lights now, however some people wait until they pop from the soil.

Thanks guys for your help and opinions!

with out any problems, you might want to go for four. I took 7 and my plant and it was smaller then yours. How old are they now. You might want to read up on it because yours started from seeds, mine started as clones, so that might make a difference.

Remember not all will turn out. Keep tring with the males and when you start to see them to root and you feel ok about it them go to the girls.

i will be following you closely, you are about a month farther along than me.

Humboldt · #28 10-11-2007, 04:58 PM

Thanks, my plants are little over two months, I'm pretty sure it's safe enough to clone, I was unclear on how many clippings I could safely take off a single plant, I think I will take two from each plant as I'm limited space, I basicaly want a mother and two more girls for the next round, I'm now thinking of doing two plants at a time, Keep at least one mother and figure a good rotation schedule that I can deal with.

Any ideas on a rotation schedule? I heard about the sea of green, has anybody ever done that and how successful was it? I'm thinking maybe doing something like that, you're supposed to get so many oz every month or so, that would be too cool.

Update on the clones, the clone in the MG appears to be dying off as expected and the other two still seems to be doing ok, I'm thinking about doing the girls tonight or tomorrow.

As you can see the one on the left is dying but still have hope for the other two,

I still plan on starting the flowering process this weekened, because if I do screw up the girl clones I'm safe to take clipping two weeks into flowering.

Any ideas on a rotation would be appreciated, in the mean time I'm going to find that link I saw on the sea of green while back.

Holy crap look how bushy this bitch is getting only two days later, I took her out to water today and didn't really notice how bushy she was until out of the room, good thing I re organized lol I may have to arrange it again real soon if she keeps growing like this.

Check it out, you can't even see the damn bucket,

What do ya think, is she going to get much taller or continue to bush out? I also found some info of the sea of green but they are all basically the same no tuts or anything and all are saying hydro, are you able to do the sea of green using soil?

PartyOf5 · #30 10-12-2007, 07:08 AM

damn those are nice looking plants. what strain are you growing? are you worried about them getting too tall?
