I did some pruning today. It was different.
Cut off some lower growth and took 12 small Purple Kush cuttings.

They sure dont grow like TW. Here's some pics.




















Heres a shot of a TW in front and the PK off to the left.










The cuttings.
I used Clonex gel and soulition again. Got them in rapid rooter plugs.











I got them covered now. Those baking trays work great for small clones.






Those two on the left are cuttings I took from WW at six weeks into flower.
They rooted but havent shown much growth. They are about a month old.


Here is where the PK is going once this finishes. The Floro Cab.
These went into flower after one week veg. TW PK and WW mix. I wanna see what grew best under floros and I think its PK.

They are at about eight weeks.



Left: Mostly TW with the tall Widow on the right



Right: WW and PK behind it. TW on the right.

Hey Kevin,

The caged ones, Ha!
I know that space it kinda small isnt it. I may need the bolt cutters to break them out.

Na, I figure if I feed them up through the cage then I can bend them and keep there roots flat in the tub. There is no medium in there and I need a brace. One will be the collar holding them at the tub and the other the screen. Then I use those clips to keep them close to the screen.

Well thats the plan anyway. Thats why I wanted something sturdy.

I love your journal, very interesting read. Took me awhile to wade through it, being one of the remaining dialup internet users - pics take forever to load. lol I love all the detail you put into it though. Good stuff! An amazing harvest, and I gotta say - suddenly it seems like a very long time, before I'll get to sample my own Trainwreck! Keep up the good work!:mrgreen:bongsmilie

Hi Doe,

Glad to see you could make it.
OMG dial up? I should have warned you about the pics.
You could have let it load overnight. LOL

You have enough patients to let it load, the time it takes to grow will fly by.
Especialy now you have droopy and the twins to pass the time.

Smoke report: Train Wreck.

The best weed I ever grew.
I have to say this shit is awesome. I have grown Dutch Dragon, Atomic Haze, Snow White, Apollo, White Widow and this is the best yet.

Very nice to hear this. Growing has its own rewards at every step along the way; it isn't all about the bud at the end.

That said, when the bud is great, it makes all the rest that much sweeter.

Quick question... When cloning with an aeroponic cloner, should i worry about humidity?

Hi Noise,

I found cuttings root faster in rooter cubes at about 90% humidity the first couple days. So I use a dome.
In the aeroponic cloner I tried I didn't use a dome and they did fine with about 30% humidity.
I would say just lightly mist them the night you cut, then again in a couple days.

I get roots faster with the cubes. aero takes a couple weeks longer but once the roots hit water, forget about it.​

i like this, but a part of me agrees/disagrees. I was/am a stoner by heart so getting stoned is just what i do... but i very much agree that growing it is fucking exciting and beyond satisfying... but would you really have as much fun growing non-medicine grade pot?! :peace:

I agree that growing herb is exciting and supremely satisfying, but wouldn't it be a bummer to grow total schwag?

Most is already stored in air tight jars for long term storage.
Heres a shot of a bud from some I kept out.

Now I am going to smoke it. :bigjoint:

thats beautiful, this is some interesting trainwreck genetics... i smoked a bowl at school and this time it had a downer effect.

its awesome, you have plants halfway through budding so you'll be able to harvest again pretty soon. are they plumping now or still growing structurally?

Yea a little bit of both, you know TW constantly grows those calaxes then the sides catch up but not for long.
I got some bud shots of the floro grow.

Here is a shot of the PK





Then the TW











They did get good trichome production under floros.
We will see about size in a few weeks.

The girls are making a break for it...








I am feeding the grow tips and leaf through.




The largest PK is not even close to the screen yet.

Welcome, you got plenty to go, I been doing this for a year now and keepin journals. Have fun.
I feel ya. I have been at it for a long while now. You should stop by my journal and take a look if you have time. I have been doing a parabolic Scrog around a 400 w hps in a cabinet for the last year. Works beutiful.
