Are you just shooting co2 on them with it or do you have it running all the time on a real low psi. I have 2 co2 tanks and some regulators for my kegerator. I'd like to use them if it'll help with growth

i've got it setup with a regulator and timer jester. you should read up on it.

today the mother got tossed into the flowering room and one of the 2 daughters will be taking her place.

still no signs of roots from the cuttings, they are green and healthy so i'm not giving up on them.

Black friday sucks. I just worked a 16hour shift. How are your clones coming. i'd like to try and take some from my grow. Have you cloned before and are you using your rapid rooters for them?

hey jester, the clones are still nice and green with no roots, i trimmed the larger fan leaves and put them under a dome, it seems like these are taking forever. they are in rapid rooters.
the rest of them are looking good, i will get up before lights turn on and post some pics. 4 out of 5 seeds have sprouted...

did you use a rooting powder for your clones? i'm trying to figure out what all i need to try cloning so when my plants are ready I'll be ready too

the end of the cuttings got dusted with powder rooting hormones, and they got dipped in a superthrive solution a few days ago... 5 other cuttings off the same mother all showed roots in 2 weeks or less. looking back these are right about 2 weeks old and the temps have been a bit cooler. i'm being inpatient...

i understand your impatience. everyday i wake up and check my plants i'm like a little kid on christmas morning. i'd be doing something with them everyday if that were possible.

How long have you been cloning from that mother? and is there any disadvantage to taking a clone and flowering the mother, then vegging the clone and eventually using it as a mother ? sorry if that was confusing

3 of the cuttings had nice big roots hanging out of the rapid rooters. they got put into mg organic potting soil mixed with some perlite and under the 400mh. 1 of the clones got put into the flowering room and 1 of the plants got chopped. it was a busy day today..

i changed my soil mix up. i took 2 big bags of mg organic potting mix and added 2 cups of lime and 1 bag of perlite. i'm thinking i might have a ph problem and the lime should take care of it. i've been using a fourth of a bag of perlite to 2 big bags of mg organic potting mix and nothing else.
