Tangilope Hydro Grow

Clones as of today

I think I may put tangilope on the back burner and start some purple paralysis. Not sure yet. I just bought some equipment to make a brand new cloner, I got some new scissors and clones. I also picked up some 5 gallon water jugs and will be using ro water only now. I'll see what happens. I think I will put the tangilope into a DWC and see if they root in hydroton, if not whatever roots first in my next clone batch will be flowered

I put the clones into cups of perlite. Who knows what will happen now. 80% have lots of root bumps now and 3 have tiny little roots. They just are growing at such a slow pace that this bubble cloner isn't working out for me. So hopefully they root in the perlite and I can proceed. I took purple paralysis cuts as well

Well sadly the clones didn't look to well today so I had to scrap them and move on to another project I will be doing the purple paralysis instead and will work on different cloning methods for the tangilope in my spare time to see which method will work best.

Sorry this journal sucked, this mutant tangilope is proving to be a difficult experience

Sorry to hear that bro I will be cloning my tangilope mother for the first time in another couple of weeks. Hopefully I can get some strong ones into flower. Ill be watching, best of luck!

Thanks man, much appreciated! I hope your tangilope experience is better than mine. I really want to run the tangilope at some point, if I can get a clone to root I'll probably throw one in the flower tent with whatever else is flowering because I want to try it pretty bad.

I think I can revive this thread, I have 5 successfully rooted tangilope clones. I rooted them in root riot plugs. I won't be doing them in my ebb n grow but Iwill be growing them iin Dwc or promix. Will update again when I figure it out.

Sometimes the best solution IS to try something different! Just because the internet is full of photos with bubble cloners does not mean it will work for you at all.

Cloning will become easier over time. The mushy stem you encountered could have been from squeezing or bending the stem after you cut it from the mother. I've found that mushy stem on clones after they were mishandled. It shows up after a few days.
Pulling a mushy stem clone out to cut it again very rarely results in success. It would likely drop all leaves and appear dead before sending out new growth. You would have to be very patient with that one.

A simple system. Put them in rockwool or rapidrooter cubes and keep them in a standard 10x20 greenhouse tray with a heatpad under them. Use a humidity dome, too, if needed. Easy peasy.

no doubt westdenver! I've always used an ez cloner prior to the root plugs and bubble cloner but when i moved i sold the ez cloner and ended up reading about the bubble cloner and it pretty much sucked after the first couple runs with it. I may have mishandled the cuttings but i think the main problem was that the stems were sitting in the water 24/7 and with the hot temps we get in cali i couldn't properly cool the water down. When i switched to the root plugs, it took a while to root, but i got 100% and no mushy stems and it was great, which is awesome for my first attempt using them. I didn't even use a dome, but i know if i had a dome the rooting times would have been way better. I'm going to get a dome and do all my cloning in the summer time with the plugs and in the winter i'll clone with a ez cloner since the water temps will be nice and cool . I'm glad a fellow riu member told me about the plugs because i never would have used them. I always had a hard time with rockwool but the plugs are so much better. Youre right with the stems that i recut, none of those took root, they just ended up dieing. To top it all off, a light fell on my mother tangilope plant and that's when i took cuttings and put them in the root riot plugs. The plugs saved my plant genetics

Today two tangilope clones went into dwc buckets. 5.9ph and 500ppm.

Lowered ppm to 350, 500ppm was a little hot to start with these. Roots are taking hold and growth has started. I also changed the buckets to black 3 gallon buckets

One week in Dwc

Update: I will be using a different nute line

The nutrients that I will be using are as followed.

• Hydroponics research veg+bloom one part powder
• CX hydroponics wilt guard
• Botanicare silica blast
• GH Kool bloom

i got a tangilope in flower right now.. shes flowering like a sativa..

No doubt @ThaProdiG do you have a pic of it you could show? It is a 90% sativa but I've heard a couple tangilope each growing differently. Mine has sativa dominant leaves but it's grows very bushy when topped. How was the stretch during flowering with yours? I heard it's a monster yielding strain

Yeah i think I'm in love with the Tangilope, had a huge yield in soil, Def grew like a sativa... bent her over and there were a ton of long arms putting out moderate sized nugs but lots of them.

Def has a lot of that chocolope smell and taste with a tangerine twist... Never had tangi but I assume it's spot on and the obvious chocolope influence pumps me up ha.

I might be partial to this one for my love of chocolope (to smoke not grow in my exp)

Only grown it in soil but switching everything over to rdwc and just put a rooted clone in the veg system... hoping for those larger nugs and this plant will be a home run in my oppinion

I'd say around 6+ z's on one plant... didnt weigh it on but it filled 6/7 jars

Damn Slimjim! That sounds awesome! I've had tangi before but never chocolope, at least I can't remember if i've had chocolope. That's awesome you got a massive yield with it, it's growing pretty fast in dwc and I only have it under a 2 bulb t8 at 34w each bulb. I couldn't imagine if it was under a bigger veg light. I should be putting them under a 1000w to veg sometime next week, it's going to be a jungle because i have 10 other plants going in dwc and ebb n grow buckets in a 5x5 tent. I wont be able to veg too long but it should be a cool grow. 4 different strains in the tent has me a little worried but I am going to try to top them and keep them very short if at all possible.

Yeah chocolope is one of those real unique strains as fast as smell and taste

And I'm def no one to talk but I'm doing my first scrog, maybe you should try it... rdwc would obv be the way to do it where the res is easy access(I'm a soil guy and need to move the plants to flush so couldn't scrog before) and it seems like an ideal way to control things, I've always done well but always was envious of a nice scrog full of colas when i see one in pics... and those smaller nugs that you get growing normal near the bottom are what takes 70% of trim time... so I'm pumped to have a bunch of colas.... hopefully this fills in, but I'll veg em liner next time. This isa week in flower (no tangilope on this round)
