I cloned and only let them veg long enough to get roots coming thru the cups. VERY LITTLE veg time. I took exactly 20 clones, and they all rooted, but some rooted faster than others, I should have taken more than 20. That is why the ones in the front, about 4 of them, remained really short. They didnt root nearly as fast as the others. As for the the training done on them, they were just bent. Ive been using this technique for a while and it seems to have no bad effects on the plants. It allows me to make the most use of the available light, just bend to a place where there arent a lot of buds growing. It also keeps them from getting to close to the light. Ive never really experimented much with topping, but Im looking into trying it out soon. There are 20 total plants, but like I said the 4 in front didnt get big due to the fact that they didnt have as developed roots as they should have before going into flowering. The two plants in the very back arent doing as well as the others either, cuz the water/airflow isnt good in the very back. So I have about 14 BIG plants 3-4 Average plants, and a couple little ones. All these issues will be taken care of the next time around, just my first time using the system, and still working out the kinks. Im feeding them the GH Flora line, using the lucas formula. Running a low nute solution now, getting ready to start the flush soon.
