the plan is going to be a 8 week flower cycle with 1 clone being cut per week. Going to upgrading to a 400w soon enough. Gonna take like 3 months to set this whole thing up. Currently just veggin the potential mothers.

The three mothers continued to veg this week. 2 clones were taked from the bottom node of the biggest plant and placed in a water bottle. Hopefully will have some roots in a week. Taking 2 more next week.

the 150w HPS is more heat than light

I only had some slight burn on the smallest seedling. I guess I now finally understand the "FFOF is too hot for seedlings" complaints that I've read over the years. As of now, they seem to be fine and no more burns have occured. As for the 150w, I will be upgrading to a 400w after this grow. They are still being vegged under the T5's for now.

600 watt would kill bro.

I'm afraid a 600 in that tiny area would be too much. Clones cut yesterday, new update with pictures tomorrow.

2 of my T5's blew out and need to be replaced. Moved the biggest plant to the flowering room and 12/12 will be started.

So turns out the biggest "mother" and thus the four clones from it are all male. Dang
