I think three to four clones every two weeks per plant is a good starting point, so say for 14 plants you're probably averaging at 100 clones a month in my opinion. That's quite a lot of plants, if your new to growing you're probably are taking on too much with that many, and you won't be able...

I do apologize as my estimation of distance was way off; I have just measured the distance from the top of my clones to the bottom of the fluorescent tube which is only five and a half inches (14 centimeters) I do use a reflector between the tube and the batten which serves the purpose of...

you're welcome, I also use reflectors on the top of my pots to get some light under the plants reflected from the cfl bulbs on the side, it seems to make a difference.

sounds good, I have my lamp about 8 to 10 inches from my clones, and I take 20 clones at a time

I don't use this cloner, however I do clone in seed compost and the lamp I use is a single fluorescent 18watt (600mm or 2ft) straight tube with a colour temperature of 3500 and a lumen output of 1350 lumens. I normally get roots between five to seven days depending on the size of cutting I...

Use 2700K for flowering.

I find holes round the side at the bottom is good too, this not only adds as drainage but allows oxygen to get to the roots, if you put holes only in the bottom then put them on gravel so there is some air space under the pot, the gravel will prevent your pots from sitting in water also.

Also I feel I should give you the heads up that pets in the grow room is a no no, this is most likely where your infection came from and will continue to infect your plants until you start to employ this strategy. The same goes for plants placed outside, don't bring them back into the grow...

You can use a spray containing pyrethrum or pyrethrins, and you need to repeat the spray 14 days later to catch the newly hatched eggs. Thrips strip plant cells from your leaves which gives a silvery appearance to the leafs top side, you can also use very dilute dish soap as a spray or dip...

I have split tested this, and can be quite confident that all the steps I have outlined do make a difference. It is true that most seedbank seeds are already healthy seeds, however if like me you produce your own seeds then the steps are important. If you try germinating a diseased seed in the...

Before you germinate your seeds you should keep them in a refrigerator at five degrees Celsius in an air tight light proof container, this helps them to break dormancy and the procedure is called stratification. When you are about to germinate allow the seeds to warm to room temperature for ten...

You look like you got some nice plants there, don't worry about the stress and you got some good advice from BUDS there, looks like you keep them well loved and I bet they are already lookin better?

if your soil is ultra dry it becomes what is called hydrophobic and water has trouble soaking up so it just will run out the bottom of the pot without touching the soil, what I do is submerge the pot in a bucket of water until you see the soil is saturated on the top, soak for like 5 or 10 mins...

totally agree... don't give it to her until she asks for it

don't leave your plants sitting in saucers of water, use gravel in the saucer so the pots are raised up and not sitting in water, rosetting is usually a sign on root problems and you can usually smell for molds by smelling the bottom of the pot. What soil are you using? What water are you...

It looks like you have the pots in saucers which is keeping them wet is this the case? If so something under the pot to raise it out of the saucer will help.

this is normal, they do this for a couple of weeks and you end up with lots of shoots exploding from the bud sites which gives you plants that make very good mothers, you will also see the odd female flower continue to appear on the new growth.

where's my tea!

Thank you very much for the information here, seems the link to plantganja.net is not working, maybe the domain is up for sale but I'm sure you have given me enough information to get started with. I may not be able to perform the procedures for a period as I need to deal with other issues...
