yeah, that is a lot of girls to take care of, LoL. i didnt mean messy shit, i meant plants everywhere, LoL.
thanks man, i try to keep things clean. but between the house and the grow cab's, one is always a little messy. but now that both chambers are dialed in environmentally it should be less challenging to keep up with everything. i knew building the flower box was gonna be a touch of work.

Thanks JS, i just caught up on yours, posted my thoughts. I am sure you will pull through. but you are fortunate enough to be able to just pick up new clones if need be!!

Hehe. Don't think I haven't been tempted. Skywalker #3 hasn't popped anything out of the root plug so I'm thinking of replacing it. :twisted:

Hey everyone, whats up!! well here they are, we will start with the Lemon Skunk, the SLOOOWWW ass LS. I bent the top over, but did not do any damage. i have read where the results are the same as topping for 2 tops, but the 3rd top stays too:D i flushed it today. it may be the medium, but I really dont think so. i will do another seed similar to this in the future to be sure, but I have enough on my hands trying to tame some clones!!

Next up is the gifted seed! hoping its a girl, but I plan to veg a little longer yet, i want to wait till the clones start to grow, but I am having trouble with them, which is gonna cause a problem soon I supercropped this and everything else I have (growing good), I tried to get a good closeup of it. i thought i screwed up when i was able to see through the stem :wall: but the top took back off for the sky, and i think has grown an inch as it turned back up!!

Next up, the RUNT, uh, sort'of :hump: this is the problem I mentioned. she is growing faster than i can take clones. i think i am gonna have to do like you daniels and just do some trimming and throw it out. I have 4 clones total now. i grabbed a bunch of colas the other day and wrapped them all in a rubber band and pulled them down. i have supercropped numerous areas, and no slowing. i wish spring was closer, i would be putting clones everywhere outside!!

here is the royal kush. not the same problem with growth as the runt, but I have to keep her tamed too. i tried to supercrop a cola on her yesterday and it seemed I broke it. i left it hanging by a little piece of skin, and today it already grew up to the light. she seems better now that I am feeding her more regularly. i think her growth may come on faster also!!!

finally some group shots. you can see i have the clones in the left corner. i put up a little shade as the CMH does still hit that area with a lot of light, and I know clones only need minimal light intensity. I didnt want any excuse for them to die. the last one had roots, but when I left the dome off for too long it kill the vegatative growth and she was lost.

these are my oldest clones. 2 are 10 days and 1 is 7, cant remember which right now. so i know my clones are not looking the best. does any one have any tips for me? i used a clean pair of scissors and razor blade. i cut the stem and dipped the stem into water, then cut it at 45, scrape some of the skin and any foliage from below, and dip in gel and then powder, then place in mix of perlite and mg potting soil, bout 50/50 mix. i am trying some perlite and vermiculite at 50/50 now on a couple fresh cuttings since i aint found my niche yet.

On the clones they look 'over-something'. Over-watered would be my guess though. Remember that 'Over-watered' doesn't mean "too much water" but "not enough oxygen" and therefore they start to drown. In a hydro setup it's easy to add oxygen to keep them from drowning. But in soil, once the water loses it's oxygen, and it isn't replaced or flushed away with oxygen rich water, they will drown.

Does the plant mix ever get a chance to dry out a bit? Just shooting in the breeze.

Besides that, I think that's the first pics of your new cab that I've seen. It looks cool! How do you keep the light from exiting out from the fan portals?

no, it was actually a VCR tape cabinet, LOL!! it isnt much more, but it is enough to have a cycle that gives each plant some veg time.​

oh, and i put some extra holes in my domes and clone cups to reduce moisture a little. right now it is no worry because i have plenty of stock to take clones from right now. but i would like to put some clones in flower soon!!

i will try daniels idea of not misting the plants, and I will also reduce my misting to once a day. i have a couple of fresh clones i just took Tuesday or Wednesday. still gotta get pics of the light shade for ya!
