Hellz yeah! Finally finished up with my lollipopping and cloning. 36 fucking hours lol I need to take a break and smoke one then I'll shoot a new vid and upload it. The Afghan Kush Ryders have already started to flower! I think I might very well like these auto-flowering ladies.

Damn HPS light made my video have lines in it. I'll have to make sure to record all the rest of my flowering videos during the lights out period under green lights.

Anyways, without further adieu:

interesting, very interesting, you Michigan dudes really know how to grow! my goodness what a line up you have 313 K! even white rhino! ams..no clue as to what that means but i am super curious. I like your videos as well nice and short from my ADD.lol
I am def going organic next round because i am hearing way too many stories about nutrient with carcinogenics in them and with the amount i vape/smoke i really dont want any additional heathy probelms. It seems like a lot more work, but its totally worth it.
Killer set up, killer line up and really amazing gardening! take it easy

Wow, 313! Things are looking great, and you must be fucking tired from all that prep for flowering. That seems like an awful lot of plants for that small area, and you topped them so they're probably going to grow into each other like crazy. How many plants have you harvested in there before? I'm growing 10 plants in about half the space you have, and it is too many. My favorite is my Vanilla Kush, if you haven't grown that before, you'll be pleasantly surprised. I'll be following this one, for sure...

I have finally been satisfied!! Everything looks badass dude! Make sure to get another UFO before to long, wouldn't wanna leave those ladies wanting haha. Can't wait to see all the dank you get from this crop, I am very VERY impressed.

Good to see all of this medication in such good hands haha

Thanks for stopping by bro. Yeah it's kind of a lot of work but the two methods sort of balance out in that department because there is no longer any need to flush them seeing as they are not getting ANY nutrients (that's my favorite part lol). Flushing was such a chore before because I had to lug all the plants up and down the stairs and all the 5 gallon buckets.

Thanks for stopping by. Well this is actually the first crop grown in this room. I used this same room previously but it was with a grow tent and we did 17 plants. Oh and dude, the Vanilla Kush smells so incredibly skunky. Actually the VK has been the best growing and most pungent smelling of all the plants. I really can't wait!!!

Was gonna go up there today but I forgot it's Labor Day lol Gonna have to be tomorrow on that UFO.

Over the last week I have been busy as hell around here with gardening and other things. It's day 8 of flowering now and almost every plant is showing pre-flowering signs of being females! I'll do a new video tonight after lights out.

I also took clones on the day that I put these ladies into flowering and some of the clones are showing roots!!!! Now, I know this might not seem like a big deal to most of you but seeing as this is my 5th or 6th attempt with clones with a 0% success rate, you should be able to appreciate my excitement about these roots showing up.

Good job on the cloning. Its tough at first but once you figure it out it's like riding a bike. Im curious to see how well that light mover does for you. You got a grip of plants in there, are you hand watering?

Glad to hear everything is going good man!!! And anytime your clones show roots is a happy day haha xD
And your plants are all showing female pre-flowers? Thats dope! Now you got me craving a video update dude lol
Keep up the good work and stay high as outer-space! Peace man

Yeah, for now I am hand watering them all. I would like to eventually set up a master control system for the environment and set up an automated watering system.

Not all, but very close to There is about 5 that haven't shown me any pistils yet but with the way things are looking I wouldn't be surprised to see 100% females.

Wow, I am really less than thrilled with the video quality I'm getting in flowering. Gonna have to figure something out about that.

Cloning update:

I took 83 clones from the branches that I lollipopped. 13 of those went into my aeroponic cloner. None of those 13 made it (I think I am incapable of doing hydroponic). Of the 70 that were in peat moss pellets under the humidity dome, 33 were rooted as of yesterday. I transplanted those 33 into the 5.5" square pots and they are currently sitting under the fluorescent lights.

Now, I started this grow with 15 strains and going into it I knew that not all of the strains were going to survive my cloning process. Of the 15 strains, only 9 made it through cloning:
Tangerine Dream
New York 47 (only has 1 clone surviving)
Northern Lights x Big Bud
Super Skunk
White Widow (only has 1 clone surviving)
AMS
Vanilla Kush
Big Budduh Cheese
Pineapple Express

Looking Great! Got some amazing strains. Subbed.

p.s. You get my message? Nothing is showing in my sent folder.. =/

Yeah I got it.

Your plants must be doing great man! Hopefully next video update we'll be able to see those nice budz xD

Yeah this blows, all I can do is do them while the lights are on and get lines or do them during lights out and it's dark.
The green light video sucked though so I'll just keep doing them while the lights are on.

Everything looks dope man, and hopefully that NY 47 will perk up for you. How are the UFO's treating you? I've never used them and ive only seen them on the internet. Do you think one UFO could flower 4 plants easily? And how much did that UFO cost you?
Good work dude, every time I come to your grow I get impressed xD

They got me through most of my first grow before I upgraded to HPS and just started using them for supplemental. Now that I think back about it, the Chocolope that I grew in my first grow was some of the best smoke I've ever had. Except for it's horrifying looks, it was great lol Smelled good, tasted great and the buzz.....2 hours!

ClexKush said:

It seems to be doing the trick, 2 out of those 4 are showing pistils and all 4 of them continue to grow.

ClexKush said:

They cost about 150 from HTG for the 90 watt UFO.

Thank you. It really feels good to be getting this level of success after my first 2 grows. Even getting clones to root!!!

Great job on your setup. How much power do you calculate per month to run it.

Thank you. Roughly $250-300/month. That's what I'm guessing once I have the other flowering room running too.
