The heat pretty much caused her to lose what would have been my clones from the lower branches..I'm figuring a massacre of clones... I have another grow going with a 24 plant capacity ...so I'm figuring I will make every remaining bit a clone..which would be less than 24.. and start a perpetual veg to flower.. where I'll veg some longer.. and hey one of those will be the new mom.. the reason why I'm not flowering her is because I'm at my limit..and hey..her last breaths will put out maybe 15 clones.. and my other mom..the renaming 9

get you now....

i was looking into cutting out my veg and haveing multiple females in the 2litre bottles under the screen, if you have heard of that method? have never tried it but i have the space for about 20 so should also increase the yeild aswell, as stated have never tried this before so could be makeing a big mistake but i could really do with the incresed yeild..

so its get 2ltr bottle cur top off it, turn it upside down and place it back on top of bottle, bottle is filled so acts like the res, fill the upside down top with perlite and place clone in it.... after a week of veg to get some roots going there then flipped to flower, giveing lots of small "plants" but esentially there just colas!!! this make sence to anyone???

I f*cking love the idea, i would probably run the ones underneath soil so that way i wouldn't have to worry about root rot and/or having to worry about oxygenating the roots. 6"pots i could fit six on each side of my bucket. 12 extra colas sounds good to me!

yeah soil is a better more forgiveing medium, alright, the oxygenating was a concern and the rot, but so far i haven`t found that many grows doing it that way so info is kinda scarce....

sounds like a plan tho....;) also might work with the "bed" of soil instead of the pots, but thats a step too far this time, maybe when theres a few full jars here i`ll try the bed, for now tho i`ll run with lots of colas on the screen....

The bed is great, you get really wide bushy plants, the branching matches root width.. my space can fit one more Bucket, so next time I might run a double Waterfarm scrog!!! Muahahaha

uuuummmmmmm double water farm......(to be said like homer simpson).....hahahaaha...
Lmfao, yeah I'm ordering the bigger version this week.. I've been having a debate with a friend... Do you guys and gals think it's a better idea to scrog indicas or sativas? I like the haze so far and its really branchy, but my next run will either be, critical kush or...blue dream haze..

think its down to personal choice there, if you like the body stone then it would be sativia or the heady stone its the indica..... just my take now so don`t depend on it hee hee.....


i personally don`t think it matters scrog wise but i could be wrong....
