Ya, you basically take the same tote you got for the cloner, cut an exhaust hole on one end, hook up a fan pulling through a carbon filter in the bottom of the tote. Then you just make a couple of small screens that sit inside the tote, drill some air inlet holes in the lid an you're set.

Great ideas guys! Very creative. If I don't use the other tote I bought for a cloner, I'll give it a try.
I'm posting new pics later tonight, but I wanted to tell you guys, my Train Wreck, has a twin! Another little sprout came up beside her! It's my first one. It should also be female, right? I'm gonna try and relocate her, before the roots tangle together (if they haven't already). But I'll get a shot of them, before i do. They have names now - Kim (older twin) and Andrea! hehe

EDIT: Went ahead and seperated them, I believe it was a success. The entire root came out, with Andrea - it's still small - and that's what I was hoping for. Didn't disturb Kim at all. Here's a couple before and after pics. After reading rather depressing threads on this phenomenon, I hope the little tyke survives!

Woa! So you had a single TW seedling going and all of a sudden another sprouts from the same seed/plant? I imagine it had to grow off the roots of the initial plant or something???

Not too much going on, outside of the twin today. I overwatered my little SLH - thinking this hempy business is going to take a bit of getting used to. I'm guessing it's because the peat pellet is holding too much moisture? Other than that, everything looks good. I skipped the TW in this post, as she got her pic up above earlier today. Here's everyone else!

The clones are doing very well. The big one is now almost twice the height of the other three!:shock: I gave in, tied her down this evening. She doesn't get to hog all the light! lol I am so tempted to throw them in flower, but trying to be patient, and veg them a bit longer.

Caught a few pics of the big girls right before lights on. No problems here, just more bud growth. Three weeks since the flip today! The largest buds are about thumb sized in width and length. Go buds!

Hi Doe,

Boy you got a lot going on.
I was wondering about your twin, Very cool, that was from one seed huh? Never heard of that happening. .

Brown perlite?
Sounds like you got soil in it. If mixed with vermiculite it will take on a grayish tone but not brown.
Did you start it in a jiffy cube? That may be it.

Lacygirl had a pretty good idea there with that cardboard/mylar cover. Not only blocks the light to the roots but probably cuts down on humidity. I am gonna try it on my next mini hempy.

Oh and I also appreciate the occasional pair of breasts or heart-shaped ass
Actually both.

Hey cruzer, glad you stopped by! Yeah the twin was two sprouts out of one seed, searching the forum it does happen occassionally I guess, but a lot of times it seems that the weaker sprout doesn't make it, or if it does, is male. But that is from regular seeds - this one was feminized. So I'm hoping they are both girls.

Yeah I don't know what's going on with the perlite. That one is in a jiffy peat pellet, don't know if that would cause the color? Can't smell anything on it, I had thought maybe the perlite was scorched from the lights, or something. But maybe it is the pellet. Little Andrea isn't in a pellet, just a bit of soil in there - guess I'll know if it does the same thing. I liked those covers she made, too. Humidity isn't a problem though, I'm having trouble keeping it up to a readable level, even. If they seem to be going slowly I may give it a try.

lol:hump: You made me giggle...

Oh! almost forgot, got a clone question for ya. Tying down the tall one, I found that the stem of the top portion of those plants is really flexible, not stiff like I would find in a plant from seed of that size. I mean it's crazy - I could bend it over and it'll stay there a minute, it's just that soft. Something wrong? Or normal for clones?

Are you sure you didn't just accidentaly drop a seed in there or reused soil from a seedling you thought didn't sprout?

Hey I missed your post somehow. I don't think so, the roots didn't seem attatched to each other when I pulled it out. Everything I've read suggests the seed itself actually had twin embryo's. I don't know why the smaller one would take an extra week to pop.

Absolutely, positively, 100% sure. I never reuse my soil. Also, I wanted 18 plants for this grow, planted 18 seeds - and when five failed, planted the last two I had left. All in their own container (the small pots were brand new too, never been used). The seeds that didn't grow I dug out to see if anything was happening - found each one - and threw them away. No way, no how, was there another seed in there.

Cool, love to see a pic of her!

I threw the clones under a big light tonight - time for them to flower, I think. With the softness of the stem it wouldn't do for them to get too big. They are already a foot tall. Little ones are under the 400w MH, except for the two smallest, in the hempy cups. They all have a slight case of nute burn.:cry: Bad plant mom - I was watering them while I was drinking, and thought I'd try and give them some nutes early. Hey kids - don't drink and garden!:peace:
