Here's a few pics of a Durban Poison clone given to me from a friend, she has been flowering for almost 3 weeks under a 250w HPS. I'm using FoxFarm OceanForest soil, tap water and Age Old Bloom liquid fertilizer. I did some minor LST training in week 1 to help the lower branches receive more light, as you can see there's some pretty bad stretch. This is my first time growing 12/12 from clone so I don't know what to expect. How does she look to you guys?







Let me know what you think!

That's a nice sized plant for a 250 watt hps. You got stretch but you also got some nice bud sites going on. They may turn into some very nice fat colas to.

Great, all those leaves are a lovely green, just keep doing what you're doing and you should be set.

yeah, but it's a cheap soil tester from my local hydro shop. It's not accurate I need a better one to test the water/runoff thats my next investment as well as a 400w ballast :)

did you put that thing on 12/12 before or after the clone was rooted?

it was rooted and vegged for about a week under clone floros, I got it as a trade for 3 master kush seeds

thanks I hope so :) I was told it would yield about an oz, which is fine for me since I have 2 other much bigger plants flowering too :joint:

pH testing strips work better than those soil testers, I've had 3 and they were all inaccurate pieces of shit, had no problems using the strips, they cost next to nothing either.

Plant looks good, but I can't believe you traded 3 Master Kush seeds for 1 Durbon Poison clone... What was the logic behind that trade? No disrespect intended, just wondering your thoughts.

well its a long story... I ordered 5 master kush beans from nirvana-shop like 3 months ago, germinated them in paper towels like I do with all my seeds, but not a SINGLE one cracked after 8 days :( So I e-mailed nirvana support and they resent the seeds for free. I was saving them for my next grow until a good friend here on RIU (I won't mention his name unless he wants me to) was kind enough to drive to my side of town and trade a couple of them for this beautiful clone :) I thought he might have better luck germing them so I gave him 3.

I'm use a 250 as well. My process has been to veg for a couple months while doing LST then moving them to flower where I pretty much leave them be except for trimming fan leaves occassionally. Thats been working out well, but the LST is a bitch. I just recently threw a clone direct into the flowering tent to see what comes of it. I'm fairly impressed with the buds thus far for the amount of work involved (read: none) compared to the LST. How close to your light do you usually have your tops? I run a cooltube and everything's cool to the touch so I could come pretty close if I wanted. I've got probably a foot of space right now just to ensure I get good coverage to the corners of my tent.

My HPS gets pretty hot, mainly because its a cheap hood with the ballast attached (big mistake), I'm saving up for a cooltube setup for my next grow. I keep the tops about 6 inches away from the glass though. I have 2 older plants that I vegged for 4 weeks before I started 12/12, they are SUPER tall and stretchy compared to the clone. I'm still learning how to LST/top properly, I always end up with a bunch of tiny tops instead of a few big ones. I'm loving the results of 12/12 from rooted clone though

thanks I appreciate it :) I have 2 much older plants in flower too, but they are SUPER tall and too ugly for pics lol. I'm loving the results of the clone thus far though
