Man I knew I forgot something lol I promise next time round Im going to keep a constant journal.
I had so many problems with this grow it was untrue. So some of my seeds never made it, and a friend grower saw my set up and said shut it off. He said its not worth the running cost for the yield I was going to get. He said seeds are crap and clones are the only way to go. Funny that, as he goes on to tell me he has a mother I can have clones from (Only $5 a pop too)
The next day I collected 40 cuttings from my pal off a mother that looked dead to tell you the truth, but Ive seen his current grow from the same clones so who am I to moan. Well anyway, he told me to keep them in the prop unit for up to 14 days for signs of roots and them put them in my system. Once the last one goes in give it 7 days of veg before flipping over to 12/12.
I wanted to build a bubble system for my next grow anyway, so now seemed a good a time as any. So off I went to build my boxes while I still kept my original Super Skunk plants in veg (do you really think I was going to kill them off lololol) and my clones waiting to root.
Bang on day 14 I could see roots coming out of a number of clones, and my first box was ready and waiting so I put them in the system. Over the course of the next week or so all my clones rooted and were put in to the bubble boxes. By the time the last clone went in and I flicked over to 12/12, the original super skunk plants were already monsters. Now I know now I could have topped them, but I thought I wouldve had the space lolololol
At one point I could see the ones at the back moving forward slowly. I said to my mate were growing triffids not skunk here. Well a couple of days later they had walked halfway across the room!! What had happened was they had got so big they pulled the tray over! What a nightmare that was. I ended up putting up some netting and poles etc.. That was four weeks ago and I must have saved them as they are all looking well now.
My biggest problem has been timing. Because I bought the clones and refused to kill of the super skunk that had been growing for almost a month by then, everything has been out of sync but I knew that. The clones in the bubble boxes I built are looking the dogs (and you guys dont know how proud I am of them!! I cant build shit lol) so alls well that ends well I guess.
