The hairs turning might not be a bad thing. I've heard that after calyx die off you can usually expect a decent bud boosting. Glad to hear it's having an impact on the nasties! How often are you planning on treating? You should see any eggs hatching within 7 days. So keep that in mind.

hmmm... that might be good then! lol. i checked the trichs yesterday on the floja... and noticed mostly all cloudy heads.. and a couple amber trichs here adn there. =)

and i plan on sprayin again in 5-7 days from wen i used it.. soo far it looks good tho! deff gonna spray again tho for good measure. maybe even a 3rd time.

looking real good bro! do you always clone in flower? how long it take to root those things? ive had experience with revegging and it takes forever....

i like to use azatrol for spider mites. the permethrin bombs are effective as well. hit em with a bomb...this will take the numbers down, then spray with azatrol. it has never let me down. i found spider mites in my garden once after using this shit. there was a ton of spider mites all stuck on one leaf. i flipped out. i flushed the leaf and tried to find more spider mites, couldnt find any. i think i must of missed that leaf or something.

i dont ALWAYS do it... but it seems to happen alot. hahaha. i just need to veg my plants a lil longer soo theyre bigger so i can clone durin veg. i usually clone during flower only because theres not much to take from the plants wen theyre in veg. and once they flower theres more to take ya know?

doesnt take too too long to root usually... about 10-14 days. not horrible. they grow soooo fuckin crazy after they root tho. lol. its kinda cool. i was look at the sensi star and u cant even see the stem on the whole plant cuz theres budsites EVERYWHERE!! its a good way to make a mother as well. since theres so many shoots everywhere. theres plenty of places to take clones.

never heard of either of those things? ill have to write that down for next time.... hopefully there wont be a next time tho. lol. wat about lady bugs? ever try them?

So you just cut then shave like a spear at the cut and use powder, then right into wet soil? What is your success ratio? I do it the same way as you but I use rapid rooters and gel on my clones and I have a rubbermade container that I keep rooting water in there for the rapid rooters to suck up as needed. My problem is that I have a humidity dome "Plastic wrap" over the top and moving them out of there and transfering them to soil is becomming a pain in the ass! I do however have about a 98% success ratio though. I am just looking for an easier way to just slap some clones in some soil and let them ride! LOL I guess I am just scared to try it due to me not wanting to kill my clones! I hate when my plants don't do well or clones. I am sure everyone knows WTF I am talking about.

not exactly like a spear. jsut cut it at a 45 degree angle.. and just gently shave a lil bit off the bottom. just gently drag it along.

i used to use the lil peat pellets for my clones as well. and i had HORIBLE luck using those.. i had run out. adn thats wen i just tried stickin it in soil. and that worked great! and ive done that everytime since... maybe just find a small branch on any plant.. and just give this method a try and see if it works for u. try not usin a humidity done or rapid rooters.... etc. just cut it. shave it. gel it. adn stick it in a cup with sum wet soil in it and see wat happens.

and my success rate.. i mean other than the 2 warlock clones that didnt make it (i think that was cuz of sumthin else. not my method.. they might have been too big or unhelthy or sumthing.) ive hadd 100% success rate using this method. give it a try on one and see wat happens. just make sure to spray it often. =)


**couple more hours till the clones arrive! im gonna throw a blueberry into flowering now to clear up a lil room. and move a couple outside 2morrow or after work. ill tkae pics to show u the clones later on after work or 2morrow morning

wow. the poll results are lookin good. the PE is winnin..... but only by 2 votes. then floja sensi star northern lights and AK 48 are all tied at 6. im pisse di 4got to add the gorilla grape to the poll.... =/

Hey bro I am going to try just sticking some in dirt next time I clone. Some of my plants in flower are looking nice so I may try to pull a clone off them. They aren't too far into flower so it shouldn't be to big of a deal. I am just pissed that the Nirvana bubblicious isn't doing better! I love that strain! Huge producer and sweet ass smoke!

Hey Chris what's going on. You need to spray every 3 or 4 days for mites...And do three applications, you should be fine but mix up the products so you have two different active ingrediants otherwise they will just become immune if you use one spray. That's the only stipulation lol,,,,,,I do not want to see mites on my genetics ; !)

Take care have a good fri night!

Nah i havent ever used lady bugs....That is just more insects flying around my house lol! Also spider mites arent lady bugs first choice of food. Im thinking this is why its hit or miss with these guys. When using lady bugs you also have to keep up an environment suitable for the lady bugs, or else they will die as well. Yea look up azatrol or azamax....anything that starts with aza. Amazon.com should have some. Its really worth it.

I cant believe you are getting roots in that little time, maybe my grow plugs just dont have the nutrients like your straight to soil has. I never feed my clones....how long after rooting until they start emerging from the nug with new branches?

lol. yeaaa go point. and yeaa well i figured theres isnt any more bugs on my plants (as far as i know.....) soo theyd have to eat the mites. =)

thats not a long time? lol. seems like forever to me wen im waitin on them to root.... i did have 1 strain that took like a month 1/2 to root.... lol. it never wilted or anything... just stayed the same size. i was gonna get rid of it. but its the lasy clone of the full moon i had. and i really liked this strain..... and eventually it just started growing?

and usually about 7-10 days before you can actually see the new growth emerge out... im sure its growing underneath there before then.... but thats how long before u can visually see it. if you plan on keeping a mother plant.... i would consider doing this. cuz they put out sum CRAZY amounts of shoots. and all teh shoots have really tight nodes as well. a win-win situation

I ended up sticking both bastard bubba plants into the flower room... just gettin too crowded in there. and theyre lookin good anywayz. at about8-9 nodes high... deff the tallest and most healthy lookin plants in the box. only ended up with 3 clones for sum reason.... 2 jack herrer and 12 kandy kush.... but the kandy kush is not lookin good........... at all. =/ all the growth is droopy and startin to crisp up. he had them in lil plugs and then threw them into a cup with sum soil in it.. i could see all the roots.. sooo im thinkin wen the girl got them. she mighta had them for a couple days b4 she said anything. and who knows where they were for those days.... =/ im gonna do my best to bring it bak to life. because i do not wanna lose this strain. the 2 jack herrers look good tho so far. gonna stick one outside along with the full moon. plan on takin clones from each other plant and stickin them outside as well. gona do that on monday.

the top of the floja is started to yellow up a lil.. idk why tho? its gettin a lil crispy? i dont know why or what would cause this? im wondering if it has anything to do with the mite spray i used? seems like after i used it...... all the white hairs wilted and died.. and now leaves are burning.. =/ idk. the rest of the plant looks good tho. soo hopefully... if it gets worse. it will only be the top.

no thats pretty short, maybe next time i will take a clone in flower to see how well it does...i never feed my clones tho, this could be why they take so long. i have revegged in the past and they do emerge like crazy....i end up hacking alot off of them!

im glad the bbubba is doin good for you! have you harvested these guys yet? or is this the first run? possibly the yellowing is due to being too close to the light? heat stress?

yeaa its worth a try man. worse comes to worse just scrap it. and i dont feed my clones either. but there are nutes in the MG soil... soooo maybe that helps? i have never tried revegging.. but have thought about giving it a try. i just always worried that the root system would suffer... but ive never done it b4... soo i wouldnt know. lol

and yeaa this is the 1st run with the bubbas. but man... they both look GREAT! one looks more indica than the other.. but the one thats leanin more 2wards sativa looks GREAT!! one of the best lookin plants ive grown. ill show ya wen i do the next update.

and it could be heat stress.... its been REALLY REALLY hott around here lately. soo that could have sumthin to do with it. i raised the light up a lil bit.. hopin that might help.

it depresses me how the plants look now.. compared to what they used to look like 6 months ago... everything was so nice adn healthy looking... nice and green.. and now.... they look like shit... im almost embarrassed to show u guys the pics..... just sucks.

lol. yea thats one of my favorite problems to have!! lol

*-*-*-*yeaa still dont really see any mites. gonna spray again today. got my fungicide 3 stuff. its funny... u can see how nice a full/green all the new growth is. thinking its due to there not bein any spider mites....all the plants are looking better/healthier. well..... besides the floja of course. =/ soo disappointed in the floja. it was comin along so nicely. but since its been pollinated... its just loaded with seeds.. so its not as nice of a purple as it was before.... the clone i took is doing good... cantr wait to flower it and NOT pollinate it! lol. soo it can just be all purple ya kno. the 2nd clone i took... the one with the lil bud on the top has rooted... i can see new baby leaves comin out of the bud. same with the sensi star. gotta move the warlock clone up closet to the CFL so it gets more light so that one can root as well. gonna take sum pics 2day and post them up 4 u guys. soo stay tunedd *-*-*-*
