day 53 or so

It's been awhile since updating with everything going on in my personal life and site being down. Anyways The girls are rocking away they are big beautiful and happy I tied 3 of them down to help with growth, the other 2 were growing really solid so no ties needed. In terms of whats new I upped nutes to about 75% strength and we are about to step up to 2 gallon waterings which should leave me watering them once or twice a week tops. I recently transplanted all of the clones 5/5 into their new homes they are chillin with the big girls vegging away in party cups. Im excited to see how they start developing I am beyond relieved they are all alive! My Critical Mass is showing some beautiful pistils all ready I'm hoping that my other freebies sour ak and hypnotic are females as well. Aside from that they all look amazing here they are :) I'm starting to stress about my AT600 they are still unavailable if it isn't available soon I may need to choose a different fixture or do something about my girls cause they need to be flipped to flowering pretty soon

They're looking awesome bro keep it up bro!!! They're really starting to take off the PE is a short girl very indica dom so it takes her a while to get legs. Everything looking good with clones too but you may need to tone you soil down a bit looks a lil hot but they still look good. How long you vegging for?

Lookin' awesome. Might want to flush those clones with some plain ph'd water though. Had to recently do the same with a couple of seedlings that accidentally got feed a little strongly.

Thanks guys, My PE is definitely a stout one but she is catching up in height now it just took awhile she didn't go to well during transplant from 2g to 5g smart pots It was just a bad transplant. In terms of the clones guys those fan leaves were dying while in the rapid rooters so I'm pretty sure its from when they were sucking the nutes out of the leaves. I split about a little more then 2 gallons between all the party cups prior to transplanting so soil can't be hot and they haven't had nutes yet I'm letting the clones snuggle into the party cups before I nute em. Next feed tho they will be getting some actual nutes instead of just water they are really needing nutes now I imagine. Its been close to a week if not a week since being in cups. I'm going to start with probably 50% of recommended cutting dosage then up from there but 50% seems safe since its just the big bloom anyways. I know it looks like they are burnt but there is just no way I flushed that soil all of the new growth looks fine its just the original leaves from being clones that seem to be dying.

Mine was definitely on the stout side as well. Didn't stretch a ton, but filled in nicely. Yours looks beautiful. Love that photo from above :)

So didn't you say you're going hempy on the clones? How are you going to transfer them from soil to H20? That can be a tricky, expert type maneuver. I encourage you to go hydro all the way. While I admire your grow, you'd be astounded at how much better, healthier, more stout, and much much faster growing your plants will be in hydro. Especially DWC. Not tryin to hate or anything, but check out this growth in water (seeds poked heads above rooters about 17 - 18 days ago).

Thanks man...your setup rocks. In the past I have grown them in cups of coco and transplanted them into a 10" netpot with growstones (the super soil aerator version which looks like perlite is the one I have come to like the best). Currently, I am keeping them in the cups but without the coco - just using the growstones in cups that are setup similar to hempy buckets.

I totally hear you on the hydro-all-the-way method. What I am trying to do is space the plants out so that I can perpetually be placing larger plants in there every few weeks or so as I take one out. Unfortunately I can't run 20 buckets and have them all in DWC - that would be cool though :). I have flowered some in coco and I will flower some in larger hempy buckets - mostly because I don't want to maintain that many buckets LOL. But you are correct in saying that the DWC plants do blow up.

I have especially been impressed with the water farm buckets. Have two clones from a single SourD plant - one in a hempy bucket and one in a water farm. Both are growing awesome, but the water farm plant is way ahead of the other one.

Man I can't wait to flip to flower If I had my panel I would have all ready stupid backorder. Thanks Duudical im doing everything I can for the girls and they are loving it my PE did have very slight tip yellowing on new growth this morning not sure why. They will be getting nutes tonight anyways time to step up the volume of my watering.

Jcommerce you are right about my clones this round is in soil but my game plan changed slightly is why this round of clones is going to a 2nd flowering room I have access to. My own personal Clones will go into hempy however I cant flower these clones I have currently cause they are so close to my main girls it wont give them time to finish. Essentially the next round of clones is going into my perlite/verm hempy pots sorry about the confusion. Been adapting my game plan.

I would like to update that the night before last I was untying my sour AK and I snapped a side branch :( I just cloned it and called it a night with the girls.

Day 3 of flower just ended been awhile since I updated these girls for you guys but I have been pretty busy have alot going on and what not. The girls have been doing great trimmed them up on 4/19 and flipped them to 12/12 on 4/20 :bigjoint: figured that wasn't bad day. But I also received my AT600 awhile ago as well got everything all set up and also installed a 440cfm intake fan just in case I need slightly better airflow. The temps with the AT600 are keeping the room low 80's. I check the canopy with my IR and its hottest spot I could find was 80 the rest of canopy was low to high 70's. Things are going to be getting very interesting from here on out!

Day 14 Flower Have alot going on lately but finally got some time to update. All the girls are looking pretty great they do have some minor nute burn but Im sure thats under control now. The buds are starting to come in finally and they are looking pretty sexy. In terms of the clones they are still kicking away about to go into the veg room and the sour AK clone I broke is now inside her own party cup. things are coming together nicely. Im looking forward to vegging them. Especially knowing more or less what to expect.

Day 21 Flowering First off I just want to apologize about the updates its just super difficult to keep up with everything but I know everyone will be excited to know the girls are doing amazing. They are all starting to frost up very nicely! They were so bushy I had to prune em up a bit so they are looking very sexy right now I only took bud shots not the whole plant cause by the time I thought about the whole plant they were all in the flowering room again. It literally took over 4 hours to prune them all it was exhausting haha just got really high turned on some jams and started cutting. My clones are rocking away as well they were just transplanted to their 2 gallon smart pots where they will stay and a few weeks prior to flowering them girls I will transplant them to the 5's. I just cant believe how much time has passed haha its such a great experience.

Op the girls are looking unreal. I looked back and remembered that you were rolling with FF, is that still so? I'd blame the yellowing on a little too much of their flowering crap.
