Harvest a Pound Every Three Weeks!

Just another quick question for anybody who may know: I realize that every strain is different, some veg quicker than others, some slower blahblahblah, but I was wondering at what week do you generally take your cuttings for clones? Obviously, there has to be enough vegetative growth to even take clones. But, just as a general guideline, at what week during the veg cycle do you usually take clones? How many days do your plants typically need to recover from taking cuttings before you can put them into flower? Four days? A week? Also, if you're topping, how much recovery time do you give your plants after topping before you take clones? Again, I know every strain is different and some will recover quicker than others, but just as a general rule of thumb. I'm pretty sure this question or one like it was answered somewhere in this thread, but at 850 pages, I just don't have enough time to look through every single page to try and find the answer. If anybody could help me out, it'd be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Here tis... I used black water hosing to begin with for the mister, then I realised when one puts a water heater in there as we are heading into winter, it will soften the hose...:sad: So another trip to the hardware store later and I bought the PVC...

The first pic is my clones in the aerocloner


This pic is of what not to do...lol


Here is the revised mister in PVC pipe... It works soooo much better...



All I can really say is I deviated from the original plans and got bit in the arse, so follow stinkbuds instructions to the letter and you wont have a problem..:-)

I also have a water heater in mine to keep the water at 24 degrees celcius... Perfect for cuttings, I also used superthrive in the water...

Hi Northern, No none, so I am very pleased... I reckon its because I only cut out the very centre of the lid for the neoprene sleeves and the integritiy of the lid nearest the edges was still in tact... That's all I can put it down to...

Hows things over your neck of the woods??

Here is the formula for my flower room:

Botanicare Nutrients:
126ml Cal-Mag Plus
150ml Sweet
180ml Liquid Karma
540mlL Pure Bend Pro Bloom

Mix all the nutrients in a spare gallon milk container. Add water and shake well. The whole mix will take an 18 gal rez to 2900 PPM.

You need a PPM meter that goes to at least 2000 PPM.

Whats up StinkBuddies, I was trying to figure out how much Nutrients I would add if I was using a 27 gallon reservoir? Another question, Is 2000 ppm my limit?

You could drill small holes right next to each bud site and hook the hose up to a fitting. It would be easy and work unreal!

I'll have to try it out and see how it works. After my next harvest I'll drill the holes in the cross supports and put in a fitting.

Thanks dude!

Has anybody tried this technique? I wanted to know if it works?

Hey GB,
I'm just a nube at the Stink system, but not aero.
This will apply whether in veg or bloom.
I mix my nutes with a quart of RO water, in a gallon container. (You can mix 2 containers since you have an extra 9 gallon capacity ). I then add 1/4 of a container to my res water.
Use your PPM meter, add small amounts to bring the PPM up to around 700 - 900.
2000 PPM might be your limit but WAY over your plants limit. I start out at 900 PPM and watch my plants, adding every 2 days bringing my PPM up about 200 PPM each time. I am currently running 1080 PPM on OG Kush and Blue Dream in my veg unit.
I had it at 1300 PPM and the Blue Dream couldn't handle the PPM. Had the claw!! Making another veg unit today to run each strain separately as I figure the OG can handle a higher nute strength.:?
Seems its best to run a lower strength than burn the plants and get a setback. Time is on your side.:hump:

Hey guys need a little help.... I have read 280 pages of this thread so far. I have built the cloner and veg unit and I am ready to build the flower units. I know on page 75 Stink has all the PDF's, but I don't believe the one for the smaller 6 site unit is there. Can anyone PLEASE tell me if Stink ever made up blueprints for that and if so WHAT PAGE???? I'm ready to build and I need those measurements. Thanks for any help you can provide.

back to reading until someone replies....lol
