When to transplant (repot)

[Mysticalgrower94]

Just want to double check before going any further. I have my master kush pushing out the rest of its second set of true leaves. I want to prepare for transplant, I have some ffof and a bag of perlite, how should I mix it? And when should I repot my master kush?

wait till it get a couple more definitve leaf sets before you re-pot? are these autos?

 

[Mysticalgrower94]

Not to my knowledge, I went to the dispensary and got an Oz of master kush and out of that oz I found only 2 seeds and were healthy, I did the banana trick to ensure female plant. So knowing if it just a regular vs auto is 0- none

first off, Styrofoam cups are a no no. use red or blue solo cups.. and I usually mix about 25% perlite in with mine, others use more but thats what im use to... I usally wait till the 4th set of nodes before I transplant. good luck with the grow.. oh and enlighten me on the banana trick!!

But I did order 1 auto NL and a 3pack of heavyweight strawberry cheesecake beans from @SeedMasters.com and got 2 free white widow crossed with bubblegum with my order. But a scrog and top is in order for all plants, and to know if the MK is auto only time will tell

2 seed from dispensary? wow you got lucky...kinda makes me wonder if the plant was hermied...hmmm

I've heard that at the end of a plants life cycle or during the feminized plant will try and generate a seed to carry out the next gen, like I said "I heard" doesn't necessarily mean it's true

 

[Mysticalgrower94]

But my plan is to take clone and make gem seeds, and plan on taking a third clone from both my blueberry OG, and master kush and crossing the genetics.

hmmm don't honestly like it when people start playing god with plants, and its for the money and the quantity...dishearting at best

25% being? Quarter size of the pot I am going to use?

 

[BudmanTX]

i've taken clones before to keep the strain going, even sold a few in my time. i would think cloning would be better than physically feminizing seeds

yep, 75% soil the rest perlite, i usually mix in a old ice chest before moving it into the pot

25% of the amount of soil your going to mix up

I normally would agree, but where I live trying to keep clones, is expensive and usually get snow most of the winter, and temps around 32, 32 is the high during winter to starting them up in mid January and using the sun that comes in through window with an energy efficient heater is all I have to work with till about next week when the temps are in the mind 60's to the early 70's is usually when I will stick em outside. But inside of a green house..

Thank you both for the advice of mixing and repotting I sincerely appreciate it my fellow a farmers.

where i live spring is starting so a few of plants have returned to the outside, we don't have much of a winter like most of the country, so there are times when we can put them outside. to give ya a hint it will be 71f today, temp rising through the week.....and guess who's outside right now

Thanks you should see the one i have inside...lol...its been in flower for 4 weeks now, and i've done the same with her, inside sometimes, when the sun is out, bring her out, give the bulbs a break for a few. Just have patience, it will come

Patience is hard but it's key. I can wait, but the urgency is killing, haha. But in the end it will be worth it.
