hey dude for the parabolic SCROG what were the dimensions of the cab? I want to do one too but I want to fit 4 plants in, and I'm not sure how much room ill need. I'll also be using hempy buckets. How much space is in between the bottom of the plant and the screen?

hey whats up someguy.. i was haveing the same prob in flower: cal/mag &

phosphorus deficiency... so i thought add more cal/mag & phosphorus right?.

( wrong)...i later found out that my PH was too high ( it was about 6.0) and was

locking them out...so i flushed with 5.0 water then gave them 10ml of cal/mag per

gal and some bloom booster nutes. and they bounce right back....i found out by

reading this issue of SKUNK mag "THE BEST OF THE REV"....

dude i hope your still doing this i aint scanned aahead in the journal. gonna read it fron the begining.
Got i couple of questions .
im starting a room check it here
looking for advice and knowledge misty dwc to ebb and flow hopping for .5lb / 3 weeks

i have looked all over for misty grtows and they are far and in between.

1 how far into flowering are they when you take the clones.
2 how large and from where are the girls do you get the clones . ie. bottom top middle 5" 6" clones
3 are these misty or are they a a cross strain.

im gonna go on reading thanks for the in put​





Here are some shots of the stems of my plants. The first several are of the 3 under the dished screen and the others are under the flouro flat screen. The ones under the flat screen are in 2gl trashcans and the ones under the hps are in 6gl.

BTW, the clones were taken in flower, they do the crazy branching thing like this when you take clones that are budding. and revert them back to veg. Its a really good strategy to get crazy tops.

im on my knees in worship​





CLONING in FLOWER.... a how-to :-)

I like to clone in flower since it creates some crazy branching. The lower branches are best but tops will clone. But why take away a top??? I wait till two or three weeks into flower to take my clones... sometimes earlier depending on my schedule... Im on no regime or time line to get things done, which makes it all more enjoyable for me... so heres what I do:

I first get my stuff together:

Rooting powder
Razor
rockwool soaked in solution of hygrozyme, grow big and superthrive
bed of perlite in flat hempy soaked in same solution:



I make a small hole in the rockwool for my clone's stem with a paperclip... sometimes I wiggle it to make it bigger. Then I get my cuttings from the lower section of the plant. I shave the stem and roll it in powder and stick the clone in the rockwool. Voila! CLONED... LOL







Then I nesstle them into the bed of perlite/hempy bucket and cover them for humidity. Then I wait till new growth starts and I screw the lights in above them to help them grow. Clones dont need much light to start with.




Its that simple :)

good info will look into


Ill stop by when I have a little more time. things have been crazy. Thanks for the compliments. Hope this journal helps someone. :)



See below :)



thats the stuff. BE CAREFUL with it! too much is NOT good. here is what I do:

-Prior to doing the gravity early in the 5th week of flower I flush.
-Use 1.5 ml of gravity to one gl of water with no nutrients.
-if plant responds well I do the next feeding with the gravity and ferts at 1/3 strenght.
-I go flush, Gravity, Gravity, Flush, just feed, Gravity, gravity, flush. Should take you through the 5th and 7th week or so. Then I go back to feeding for the 8th week and then flushing the 9th.(all depending on strain)

Keep in mind I am in hempy buckets. Hope this helps. Gravity is great, but must be used with a tempered hand. ;)

Here are some Shots of the first time with a flat screen. This was a Misty mom that was a little sick when going to flower and it lost most of its foliage. Still more successful than previous try's (yield was 2.5oz). This was the first time flowering with Hempy too. :-)






As you can see... not GREAT, but still the buds tasted good and got us ripped, and we didn't pay for it... I start getting back to the quality I was doing in my closet soon.


Nice, I'm going to try the Spaghetti and Meatball in the pot grow next. lol

Great thread. If you're still around, I was wondering if you could elaborate on your hempy tub/bucket cloning setup. Is it just one tub with a hole near the bottom? I can't really tell from the pics, but it looks like it might be a tub within a tub kind of deal. Just trying to learn as much as possible, thanks in advance.
