dang nice grow how are the clones doin
They are doing ok. They are taking for time then I thought to root. Some are starting too but my inpatient ass pulled one of them to check and I think I tore some roots. Lesion learned I guess.

Added some cfls to the veg and clone room today. 23w and a 32w. Hopefully this will help out some till I get the money to go ahead and get a hps for the flowering. - Also some updated pic of the girls in flowing

Yea that what I was going to do, just move the m/h to veg and get a hps for flowering. As far as age I guess they are about a 3 weeks into flowering give or take 2 days, I forgot to note it. Im a dumbass.

Well I wouldn't say need to, it is more of a personal preference. You can have one big top or two med tops. Or even more. I think I will try not topping next grow to see the difference.

yeah those buds are fat! that looks yum yum
see thats the same thing that happened to me! it may be alright but my plants got moldy right after.
I think that happens if its too wet. ive heard a salad spinner helps to get all the extra water out, to counter that next time im going to cut atleast 4" clones and am gonna try to keep the rockwool almost dry

OK so I figured out that I need to have a much bigger light then a 250 m/h, the buds on the bottom of the plant arent growing like the buds closer to the light. I am thinking a 400 watt hps will do the job.

Put in a new member to the grow room. Holy Crap I acually cloned a plant that lived. lol ( first time )

I did go ahead and started harvesting but I couldnt harvest the whole plant just the ones towards the top. I dont have a scale so I really dont know how much it is but I will have pics if you want to take a guess.
