you have got through the root rot..[i had it a few years ago] and dang you have done good getting those clones going well

i would have three or four 1ks on that plant two minmum..that plant looks way healthy..

two lights will get you buds..if they are 400's the penetraion will not be stellar

unless you have the room and wattage..next time i would flower a few of those clones at 9"..

NOOOO..not dirt..its for out doors lol

except for the root rot ..you are growing well

Yup fours years of doing this setup and all hell breaks loose. The rot was an eye opener re hydro as I never had it before. I guess that's were experience comes in. It's easy to go merrily along and grow great plants, thinking you got er down but when shit happens the boys get separated from the men quickly lol. If nothing else it was a really good learning experience and won't happen again lol. Got me thinking about going back to dirt actually lol

image.jpeg Thx OMS and yup thumper I've noticed that too. Lots of fuck ups on this one and they just keep happening lol. I'm done with the spray heads, last run for this tray lol. To bad as I built another one a few months ago lol. Going back to my original setup which is pretty much the same as the clones are now in. It's a flood and drain basically with a pretty strong pump creating a water fountain thing in the upper tote, lots of DO. Here are the clones twenty days from cut. I've topped them and hopefully they won't be to big before I get them under the big lights. I have one 600 and one 400 around the big girls and I'm maxed out on power to the shed for now. Never meant for them to get like that and yes I have learned this lesson my very first White Russian grow that took over my whole area lol. These things just got out of hand I guess lol. Thanks for the interest guys.

Ok so here is the really ugly, unruly beast grow image.jpeg.....Yes I'm ashamed :(. There is something said for keeping a nice canopy. Should have done a vertical grow in this stretchy thing lol. But the clones are doing really well and hopefully I'll take some cuttings next weekend image.jpeg

Actually it's not very healthy, it's been through hell and is still there lol. It's hit the roof and there are actually 4 growing in the tray but one had basically takin over with side branching 4' out :(. Yes the clones are going to be switched very soon, gonna clone them so need to wait just a bit longer.

are the others that are shaded by the tall one the shorter pheno's or just not as healthy?
all the phenos are potent enough but the short ones can be "special"
still think you made a good comeback..
ps i use hydrotron/coco chpw mix..i prefered lava but cannot get it up here anymore

The smaller, shorter ones are not healthy and yes they are being shaded but the clones are 50/50 short to tall so I will try and seperate the two next cloning run and hopefully get the majority of tall ones outside. I think those would be amazing producers if looked after properly. I may have to start the clones going now under T5's for a couple of weeks while the others finish. Hopefully that won't be a huge issue. Any thoughts OMS?

image.jpeg image.jpeg I topped them once and I think that's it but will take some clones. Gotta keep these going after all the work I've put into them lol. I have sunblaster tubes and will probably run a mix of 2700's and 6500's. Hopefully the big one is done in 3 weeks then I can move them out under the 600 and 400 which I'll run the 400 MH. Here's a pic showing what's happened since Monday. This cloning for perpetual growing requires a bit of planning when running trays huh lol, thinking pots would be much easier but don't think I'd get the growth rate.

My big flowering plant that I call Igor who has takin over the tray and basically the only healthy plant is actually starting to bud up nicely. The only thing I find disconcerning is the smell, it's starting to smell like varsol :(. Perhaps a more diesel strain smell but really reminds of paint thinner :(. Is this a normal smell for this strain?

Just cloned the clones last night so hoping to get the original cuts on 12/12 mid week. I got curious and cut off a bud this weekend and vaped it. It seemed to have a kick to it but hard to say as it's still a few weeks till finish, it's like the energizer bunny, it just keeps going. I'll get some pics up tomorrow.

Here is the first cuttings that I took image.jpeghopefully the latest cuttings show roots soon and I can get them over to buddies and turn these to 12/12 before they get to large again. Things are going just way to fast lol. These plants are just amazing re growth rate and rooting success is so far 100%. I'm hoping a week to cut but that's wishful thinking :(. I'm just about out of smoke and my "guy" is away in Florida while I'm left to plow the road :(. She may be a partial early harvest :(.
