We have started the conditioning of
2x 6"x6" rockwool cubes (for tops/moms of both strains)
4x 4"x4" rockwool cubes (2x for each strain)

I am going to need to defoliate. The internodal spacing and fast nodal growth/development says we're ready for an explosion. Defoliate us

Both strains defoliated today. Sweet Skunk a little harder than the Mimosa x Orange Punch

Twist ties were NOT very smart to use on the sweet skunk. Because of the rapid growth the super cropped knuckles are almost 1/2". This rapid growth along with the plant trying to upright itself was making the twist ties squeeze the branches. These areas that were almost engrained into the branch should form large knuckles eventually.

Pics of plants will be posted later when it's time to take them.

In the next few days I will begin tying down branches and opening it up in preparation for flowing. The Mimosa x Orange Punch should be easy and I can see the possible stretch that's going to occur. The Sweet Skunk on the other hand seems as though it's going to not stretch much so tying her down will be a little more difficult.

All clones taken from the two strains are rooted. The tops of both strains were put into 6x6x6" blocks and the rest in 4x4x4" blocks.

We will be using the below to flush salt buildup.r

I will be taking down the entire tent and putting it back up in the next few days. When I do this I will take pictures of all equipment used.

Sweet Skunk definitely needs to be defoliated.I attempted to locate points to tie down and it's just too dense and compact.

I will take before and after pics.

12 of the 14 clones are starting to green up and show new growth.

Plants will be topped tomorrow and more clones taken. We will veg for probably another week and then flip to flower.

Full setup and the rest of the grow tent will start being documented. There are SS & MxOP clones that have yet to be pictured.

Two front plants will be tied down tomorrow.

I hadn't been testing our tap water for the last few weeks and just going about my schedule. Tap water ph lowered and I didn't know. Some spotting on older leaves and slowed growth. Problem fixed though.

Lighting is on 25% power

Below a few of the tiny plants just have to get a little bigger and well begin flowering. Probably by this weekend. Old moms still need to be tied down

When this exhaust fan kicks on it also triggers intake fan.

Intake is pushed by AC Infinity 6" exhaust fan also with carbon filter

Today I annihilated the top of the sweet skunk to level it and allow more growth through. The Mimosa x orange punch is beyond gigantic. I am just going to do a heavy defoliation on it as there will be no room for it to be tied down etc because the room is packed. AC Infinity is sending me another cover but I will take pictures and flip tomorrow to 12/12.

Front giants were defoliated. Only a little needs to be defoliated in rest of garden and I'll do that later.
It's ugly right now. Old mothers were man handled during defoliation but everything will find its spot.

First time plants have ever seen darkness.

Room has 14 plants. 12 clones and 2 old moms. 2 clones were kept of each strain for new moms.
