    Default Photo Update!

    Pics after res change, trimming and more training.
    Nutes this change consist of 14ml of grow and 7ml of bloom totalling 1050ppm (minus water ppm) At this stage i look to be flipping to 12/12 next week if not earlier (hence the mix of bloom nutes this change) the screen is filling quite fast and i bet it will fill right out if not over after the flip.
    Being my first scrog attempt and first time with this bubblegum strain, timing is crucial, if it overflows out the sides of the screen some lst will be applied
    As you can see i've put my 2 bonsai mothers to be in the cab as well, i just wanted to give them some time under the hps to try boost growth. I need the indica dominant plant on the right to stretch some more so i can take a clone and chuck it under 12/12 to determine sex cos its an unknown bagseed. fingers crossed its a girl!

    Only the one for now cos its my first go at a scrog setup, also I'm not into bulk production, this one plant will keep me well stocked for months. Hell I still have 10grams left from my last PC case harvest! :P next grow tho I plan on doing a mini sea.of green with maybe 6 -9 clones in soil.

    okey dokey, bit late with update, been out of town for few days.
    came back to a pleasant surprise tho, opened up the cab and it had grown like 3" in 3 days
    starting to think now i should have switched to 12/12 a week earlier, i knew there would be stretch but yeah, getting a bit more than i expected!
    guess thats what happens when ya havent grown a particular strain before :P
    Some tops looking a little down as i just did a bit more training

    meanwhile, in the clone box, wonderful things have been happening. all 6 clones in the bubble cloner have rooted well (thats 2x bubblegum clones, 2x tomato clones and 2x cameron apple aka: pepino melon clones)
    so i wanted to transplant them into soil and searched around for the best method and have just put a few ideas together and will see how they go.
    What im doing is purely experimental and if it works well then i will use it in the future.
    I started with 6 10cm pots (cos i had them on hand, next time will probably go with bigger pots) and half filled with potting mix (just some regular potting mix with no nutes added)
    then made a bit of a well in each of them and put half handful of perlite in the wells.
    next i carefully removed the clones from the bubble cloner and unwrapped the foam plugs. Here was my first problem, both the pepino and tomato had shot roots straight thru the foam, so instead of breaking them off, i just left most of the foam on em.
    the bubblegum clones were fine tho.
    Then i gently wiggled them into the perlite (still dry at this point, easier to move around) then added more perlite around the roots to cover them.
    Finally i topped up with potting mix and watered in very well (like watered it till it was pouring out the bottom then let it drain off) with a a plant starter mix.
    I didnt squash down the potting mix at all so as not to damage any of the roots, just watering it well levelled out the soil.
    And back in the clone box they went
    Now to wait patiently and hope they take the transplant well!

    heres pics of the process, feel free to ask any questions, comment or advise

    and just added a coupla pics of tha girl

    Thanks lady j!
    Checked in on the clones this morning, still nice n perky, no droop from transplant
    Got another clone I did in rockwool that's ready for transplant too! Popped a few roots out of the rw this morning :P
    These clones I think I might go 12/12 straight up cos I'm starting to run out of room lol. Don't want to put them outdoors cos its just too cold at night.
    Waiting eagerly for the bagseed bonsai mum clone to root, won't be long then I can 12/12 it and determine sex.

    Hey peeps! I've been lazy lately with updates, but things are still charging along.
    I have upgraded the 150w hps to a 250 watter, I felt the 150 was struggling to penetrate the foliage deep enough.
    I already had a 250w ballast just to buy the bulb, a mere $35 later.
    Quick changeover and off we go

    I now have 3 more clones which went straight into 12/12 after transplant into soil/perlite mix and the 1 unknown clone which I've named "Unk " still no preflowers on it yet so still no idea if its male or female.

    The dwc scrog is coming along very well, smells soo good and quite sticky. Photos to come in the next day or so.
