Waay to much work just to grow a couple little plants, but each there own
I feel it shows dedication. I framed an built my rooms in a similar fashion.it allows you to design the space with growing in mind. This way you can have better environmental control. Being former military I like to be in control as much as possible. I can’t speak for big perm but he’s most likely the same. They beat attention to detail into us along with a strong determination to get shit done.

You get out what you put in my guy. I’ve grown out a milk jug and got buds. It’s a weed. Water it and it’ll grown but I’d much prefer to get a nice fat harvest myself and you’re not gonna get that with a half assed setup. spend a little time on the development and you’ll have a better end product. Unless you want dirt weed. To each their own though lol.

Nice setup BigPerm. Will def keep an eye on yours. I’m digging the nice little touch of hardwood flooring lol. It’s the fine details. Personally I would take some panda film and create a floor pan for each room to catch any leaks that may happen. Love the ingenuity that you’ve put into it thus far. Great work.

I just came up with an idea two days ago similar to this for the flower room. I decided to scrap the whole hydro plan for that room. This one will be simpler, but I haven't seen anything like it before, so I hope it works because I can't test it ("F it, We'll do it live!!!). It's not a new invention or anything. I'm waiting to post it until I'm done with it.

Lol funny how we tend to hold those “ideas” in till we’ve tested function. I respect that though cause usally these forums are full of bad advice. Nice to see some actual setups that are worth reading about and looking at. One thing I’ve never done is clones. I’ve grown from them but never made my own. That’ll be something I’ll try and accomplish this go round but I’ve always heard NOT to clone from femmed seeds?

Yeah, you're getting bad advice. Clone the crap out of those. Make your own fem seeds with colloidal silver. I'm going to do that with one of each of my autos before I run out of them, since it's not impossible to clone an auto, but it might as well be.

Very interesting! I’ve heard that for forever but honestly I’ve always grown unknown bag seeds. The guy giving me my gear has 10 femmed 2 strains. I wanna say one is a blue dream strain and the other an Afghan but not 100% what the names are yet. I’ll know tomorrow though and start my journal. I’ll keep 1 of each for mother’s and start researching cloning. Thanks for that dude. I was about to grow and cut them bitches lol.

Grow them all out, keep a clone of each alive until you smoke each of them. Pick your favorite of the two strains. Those will be your mother plant for those strains. Then grow the rest out and smoke them. You'll now be taking clones of the one you picked from the two best mothers.

I’ve got 10 beans. 5 of each. Was gonna grow one of each and then clone them both but grow out the first two from seed and test the smoke. From there I was gonna start the clones into their veg flower cycles but start a mother from seed for whatever strain I liked best and keep clones coming. That’s the idea anyway. But you’re saying I can clone from the clones? Or did I misunderstand that part?

Honestly I’d like to have a mother of both strains and keep a combo grow going but I’m not sure. I’ll have to see how each grows and go from there really

It's not really a clone, more like an extension of that plant. You can keep extending it, or take clippings from it 'clone'. For as long as you want on pretty much anything you want.

Hmm interesting. Never knew that but then again clones have never been on my mind as I was renting and never wanted to set up something with a lot of longevity. I just bought a house this year though so longevity is the game this time around. You’ve given me too many ideas now though lol. My wife already hates you :lol:

When your plant goes into flower, take a clipping of it. That's your clone. Grow that up and do the same thing. Now you don't have to keep a mother, plus you are now 2 weeks ahead of a seed and you don't have to wait 6 weeks to pre-flower.

How soon Into flowering should I take the clone? Like the day I switch them to 12/12 or after?

Day of. Or before that. It's up to you, and your space, but to save room, have your clone take the place of the plant that went to flower.

Nice I’ll try that this time around. I’m crying at how much I’ve wasted with bad info .... yoda like you are lol.

Perm it’s been live chattin in up but I gotta scoot to work. I’ll post some updates when I get the gear and start a journal once I get it set up. Stay frost friend and good luck on your grows.
