My Second Grow-SOG-Barneys LSD,Dutch Passion Blueberry,White Widow...

My clones usually yellow up after a while too...especially if they take a long time to root.

When I put mine in the humidity dome I stop misting...maybe you are overdoing it? A good mist every couple days and a high humidity environment should be sufficient.

Also be careful putting the clones under a 1000w hps. It's good to "harden off" the plants first by slowly exposing them to life outside the dome. Maybe try removing the dome for an extended period of time...like an hour or two...working your way up. Fresh air is as important to root clones as high humidity and warmth...

hey Jerry hows it going?
i dont know why the leafs are turning yellow but i have heard that its somewhat normal for clones to do that along with getting droopy, i actually mist ONCE a day very rarely twice so i dunno what else could be causing the yellowing, i will open up some of the vent holes the dome has on top, maybe they need some fresh air in there,

once all of the clones have roots i will take off the dome and let them get some nice Warm White CFL light for a few days before they go under the 1000 watt hps,

once the clones go under the 1000hps i will make sure that the light isnt 2 close cause i know clones can be delicate,

ill take some pics of the 3 plants that are already flowering within the next few days,

Ok I just got a bucket of water and fixed the PH to 5.0,

I put in 20 rockwool cubes in there so they can soak,
I will leave them for the majority of the day,

today I will cut 20 clones from my mother plants,

5 blueberry,
5 white widow,
5 powerkush,
5 LSD,

I will be keeping the 16 healthiest cuttings and flower those once they root,

out of the 16 clone cuttings I got right now 15 have roots developing, 1 LSD didn't make it, the root looks brown and rotten,

but 15/16 isn't bad for my first time, I'm just going to give these clones about 4 more days so the roots can get thicker and healthier, I will also remove the humidity dome so they can get some domeless light,

so today I will be getting 20 cuttings so I have 1 more of each strain just incase,

right now the rockwool cubes are just sitting inside a cointainer full of water with ph 5.0..

I might take pics of my cloning process or even a little video,

 

[FreddieMercury]

i will clone tomorrow morning instead,

so here are my 3 ladies that have been flowering for 14 days...

they are all looking very nice, the nuggs are starting to creep in
mother/clone closet

i just took 20 cuttings from my mothers,

5 lsd
5 blueberry
5 white widow
5 powerkush

i cut them at an angle and shaved a little at the stem,
then i dipped them in their rooting gel,
and then put them in their rockwool cubes that were soaked in 5.0ph water overnight,

they joined the other 15 rooted clones under the dome,

i will be placing the 15 rooted clones in their pots with foxfarm ocean forest within the next few days,
im just giving them a couple more days for more roots to show,

things are going great so far, im very excited about this whole grow,
seems like finally ill have unlimited bud

i have alot of things going on in this grow, its keeping me busy to say the least...

its my favorite new hobby

today is day 19 of flowering for my 3 ladies, they are all doing good, the nuggs are really starting to show,
cant wait to see them plump up within the next few weeks,

and today is day 30 since i took my first batch of clones, out of those 15 rooted succesfully,
i will be putting those 15 clones in their pots tomorrow morning, i will be using Foxfarm Ocean Forest soil,
i will then put them under the 1000 watt hps so they can FINALLY start flowering,

3 days ago i took 20 clone cuttings from my mother plants,

5 white widow,
5 lsd,
5 powerkush,
5 blueberry,

those are clones are just sitting in the dome waiting to root,

here are some pics

I am just doing some decent swag bagseed under CFLs. I didnt want to invest too much into it, and I really couldnt afford it anyway. If I get through this one though then I will be investing into a full setup.

i just finished putting all 15 clones in their pots with foxfarm soil, they are under the 1000 watt hps now...

everything is going good the clones are looking OK, and the mothers are strong and healthy under their CFL's and Flouros... and i have 20 clone cuttings in a dome waiting to root...

the 3 big plants that im flowering are doing good, they are about 2 weeks into flowering and the buds are starting to develop nicely....

here are some pics of what i did today

3 LSD

4 Blueberry

4 Powerkush

4 White Widow

All 15 clones

 

[FreddieMercury]

here are the 20 clone cuttings that i cut 6 days ago,
they are looking green and healthy,

hopefully this batch can root in less then 30 days

5 white widow,
5 powerkush,
5 lsd,
5 blueberry,

 

[FreddieMercury]

today i will be watering my 15 clones that i put in their soil 3 days ago,
i havent watered them yet because i heard that foxfarm soil can be a little "wet",

shud i start by giving them pure water or nutrients?? ill defenatly go easy on the nutes,

i am using the foxfarm trio pack,
anyone knows what will be good for these young clones?

i dont want to over nute them since they are still fragile,

comments and advice is appreciated

 

[Ready2Inhale]

easy on the nutes

 

[FreddieMercury]

my 3 ladies have been flowering for exactly 28 days under a 1000 watt hps,

they are all looking good,
im especially pleased with how the Blueberry is looking so far, sooo many bud sites... the white widow max is looking very good 2, the lsd is the slowest budding of the 3... but they all shud really get going these next couple of weeks

i hope that the blueberry finishes flowering in the 8-9 weeks that dutch passion says, ive heard that the lsd is a good 8 week strain and usually finishes on time, she seems to be developing buds a little slower then the other 2 so who knows if it will take longer, i know the white widow i will be having to let her flower for 10+ weeks,

here are the pics enjoy

What do you guys think???

 

[FreddieMercury]

I looked at my 15 clones and 2 white widow clones have balls

so I will kill the 2 clones and their mother,

I may record a little video of the executions...

 

[FreddieMercury]

today is day 35 of flowering for my 3 Big plants, they are all looking very healthy and strong, the last few days i have started noticing some crystals on the nuggs so that has got me excited

today i will be getting rid of a White Widow Mother plant, She happens to be a HE

2 of his clones started showing balls so i quickly identified the mother and now she is going to be eliminated...

the 12 clones have been flowering for exactly 13 days today...

my plan is to harvest 16 clones every 2 weeks,

4 Blueberry
4 White Widow
4 Powerkush
4 LSD

out of my 16 clones only 1 LSD didnt root, then 1 Powerkush died as soon as i transplanted it to soil, and just recently i discoverd 2 White Widow clones with balls, so i get rid of them...

so yeah ive lost 4 clones so far but no biggie... at the moment i have 20 clones in a humidity dome, most of them rooted, and now im SURE they are all females... the reason i cut 5 of each strain is to have a backup cutting of each strain...

i will be putting the healthiest 16 clones under the 1000 watt hps for flowering pretty soon so i can have my 2 week cycle started....

i just waterd all the plants about 1 hr ago so ill take pictures of them tonight when they are nice and perky...

some feedback would be great
