I would take clones. It takes a generation or two of clones to really see the potential of a seed grown strain

Will do thanks, Mo. My plan is to take some clones on Friday possibly Saturday. I have everything needed except for motivation, lol. I was trying to push it off until the flower room is a little closer to being finished. My problem last round is the clones rooted to fast, hahaha (never in my life did I think that would be an issue).

I figure there is about 3 weeks left in flower possibly more. Haven't grown this strain out yet. So I'd like to take clones 2 weeks prior to harvest day.

What do you guys think on harvest time based on last weeks update? How many weeks left?

I had the same problem. So I mainlined them to slow them down. I ended up with tiny plants that got the job done.



I made a second batch of clones from these that I used for seeds and the clone plants had some amazing phenos! One was a peppermint Jilly Bean.

Cheers,
Mo

It's that time again!!!!

I am very impressed by the resin production on this pheno. The yield sucks but it is quality over quantity any way.

Also, Quick update on Nutes:
Flower = GH Series: Grow, Micro, Bloom, KoolBloom, Flora Nectar, Floralicous Plus, Dutch Masters Zone, Orca, Humboldts Own Cyrstal Burst

Veg = GH Series: Grow, Micro, Bloom, Sludge Remover (when needed). Orca, Zone, Super Thrive.

First Up is the Veg Room:

Hey thanks, Mo!

This isn't my picture but this is a straight Columbian Gold. I can see the resemblance in my buds. Looks like a pretty ugly bud to the untrained eye. The trich to leaf and calyx ratio is what we care about on this thread!

CG:


Here is another Columbian Gold Shot. This is from Gage Green which is supposed to be the Columbian Gold that is mixed in with our SNOG. Looks like we could get some purple if the temperatures ever drop below 50 here:

Well @Mohican ,

I think you were right about my Veg mother Plants being in soil that wasn't properly drained. The Skywalker appears to have signs of root aphids. I haven't seen any fliers yet which is a good sign but I am seeing the plant suffer. We will be transplanting both girls into 5 gallon hempy buckets. Also, I should note that I used store (homedepot) bought chicken manure and compost and I am almost certain that these two items helped to infect the garden.

Originally I wanted to switch them to coco but after some reading on hempy I am pretty sold. Will take a couple of clones just to cover my ass on the skywalker. The SNOG will get cloned this Friday when I start trimming up the SNOG about to hit 12/12, that is whenever this run finishes up which should be in the next couple of weeks (around Oct 14 ish).

Will take pictures and such or the hempy buckets and process. The plan is just normal water for about a week or until they ask for food at which time they will be getting essentially the same feeding schedule as the Veg girls: GH Series, Flora, Micro, Bloom, Superthrive, Silica, Zone and Orca. Although I'll probably only do Orca for the first week.

IF you have easy access to it you can consider a Coco-Hempy. It's been getting more popular. Lots of people swear by it and prefer that to a perlite/vermiculite Hempy.

Read up on Coco-Hempy, I'm sure you'll make it work wonderfully =)

Dang. I already made them 3:1 Perlite:Vermiculite. I have a brick of coco too. Oh well, maybe I'll chem them out when it is time to switch out the mothers.

Okay guys,

I took a ton of pictures last night mostly because I got a ton of shit down.

1st up is the veg and part of the clone process. I also did some trimming on the veg girls to prep them for the flower tent. Looks like we will be switching in about two weeks!

As I said yesterday I am seeing some issues with the Skywalker mother. I took clones of her last night she would only give me three. I will let them recover until Friday/ Saturday (just depends on how they look and how I feel). Then the SNOG and SWOG will be transferred into the freshly made hempy buckets.

Later today I will post the new feeding regiments and Macro/ Super Macro shots of the Flowering girls.


Here is the making of the Hempy Buckets. These are 5 gallon, 3 parts Perlite: 1 Part Vermiculite.

Here are the veg plants and part of the clone process. Will grab some more pics tonight. I forgot to take a shot of them finished and sitting under the dome. You can see what I am talking about on the Skywalker clone. All of the new growth is brown and dying. I am assuming it is because of root aphids and a poorly drained potting mix.
