How about coco, anyone else use this for cloning. Heres my method: Need these items, all reusable Plastic tray (the kind that you can store a sandwich in or the larger ones) coco coir (which ever brand you prefer) pH'd water (6.0) razor blade rooting harmone (which ever one you like) Oh and...

sorry I dont take pics of my grows

I used to use 24oz bottles in a sog hempy grow, now I use 18 quart and 12 quart dish pans with 10 to 14 in each. I think it works great, just an opinion. DS

I think (now I shouldn't be speaking out of turn but) he will be using it to keep the buds from getting wet when the late season rains start up. Then I could be wrong, I sure have been before. LOL DS

Good day North Kakalinainas Did you guys out west hear about the 3k plant pull around Elizabeth City? I saw it in the news paper a few days ago. I aint around that area but sure wish I was LOL, snip a little here and there but not enough to mess up the harvest like the coppers did. LOL DS

I have 10 more of the F1b down now and I will keep the males from this 10 to breed with the females from the same 10. The first 10 that turned out with the 2/3/5 ratio have been removed from the cycle for the most part. The 5 females are giving off 2 clones each for flowering and then cut way...

The lucas formula only works with the GH 3 part nute line. With the botanicare line you are using it is only a 1 part line therefore has no need for mixing. Use grow in veg and bloom in flower pretty simple. Of course you can always add the extras if you feel the need. DS

Ok from this post I have taken 30 seeds that were F1b x Male2, and after 4 weeks of allowing the seeds to mature they still did not fully ripen. Well I say that because only 1 out of 10 that cracked actually broke the surface of the medium. 10 out of 30 cracked and the remaining 20 never did...

ace harware, if you have one near by, $26 for a big ol bag of it.

Didn't mean they would bother it, but bees get sick too, and they might need a little THC too.:hump:

Pollen from other plants (non mj) have been known to travel up to two miles and pollenate thier mate. I am pretty sure that could happen with mj as well. Not to mention you might have some bees or other bugs that might have a medical need for your plant and bring pollen from a male or hermie...

That is at 3lbs(1344g) and 4x 600watts(2400), 0.56 grams per watt. <- for the ones that didn't want to do the math. If done in a sog prepetual with each 600 watter over one tray or one set of clones, and also assuming that it is dialed in correctly where you were getting 1gram per watt, you...

just an example, in a perfect kinda way/world room size 12 x 12 4 - 4' x 4' trays each with a 600 watt light total watts = 2400 total plants 128 plus 32 clones rooting sog prepetual 32 lolly-pop sticks averaging 1z a piece every 2 weeks = 2lbs every 2 weeks or 8lbs in an 8 week period with...

also perlite is reusable, at least once. a simple bath in a diluted bleach solution and a good rinse and it is ready to go again. I used it for several years in the hempy style buckets but have since gone to coco. to reuse i would put 1/2 cup of bleach (plain unscented) in 10 gallons of water...

If I get all this genetics crap correct in my head, the backcross method should be used only to stabilize a individual trait. If that is the case then once you have one trait stable then you could backcross again if need be with a different offsrping in order to stablize a different trait. Once...

Actually it would be the first back cross to the O-mom if I went that way. The way I went was back to the Male2 instead of O-mom. In the first try (with records) I went inbred f1 x f1, but the second try with a different male I went f1 x Male2 (still inbred but back crossed to parent). When I...

Thanks for the insight, see if you can recommed a way to fix what is happening here then. Thanks again for the info and any other help you might be able to give. what I had/have is a strain that was fairly stable for the most important traits that I want from it however it has been becoming...

thanks kp2 and lb for bringing this info my way. unfortunatly i cannot do thousands at once, but i have been pecking away at this now for close to two years on one particular strain. everything was going great until that he she showed up then all bets were off and i have been fighting this issue...

Thanks for stopping by lb. Any notes you could find on it would be great, and anyone else with breeding notes that show which way is the best way to carry on a certain trait is would be good to. there are only 10 grown out at any give time, the keepers are moved to work with them and the others...

Thanks lb for the confidence boost. I still think it had something to do with the coco having a phosphorous build up, locking out the nitrogen. I just dont know what would have caused it with 5 out of 8 mothers that were all in coco from the same bag. I dont post alot as you can tell, and I...
