Clone....it's about time you added to your growing-growing skills (if you see what i mean ;))

Topping or cloning, she's still going to stall for a while...

If I wanted to clone the one in your pic, I'd top her..and take the bottom two side branches later on as clones when they've stretched a bit.
I sometimes take these two clones just before I flip if the plants look particularly nice...

I really need some help. My cool tube will be here till Tuesday, but for some reason my temps have taken a turn for the worse. I came home from work and it was 99* and I thought it just might have been that the door to the room was shut so there was no air flow. So I opened everything up and got the temp back down to 84 which was fine with me for right now. But after about 20 min of the tent being closed back up its back up to 95*. Only things I have changed in the last 24hrs is I added 3 2L of yeast/sugar for Co2. So please can someone help me out?

I'm running two tubes. They tend to concentrate the light a lot more in the middle, so I removed the inner reflector, which helped.

Just discovered a light leak with one though. The ducting had come away, so just the faintest of daylight was running back down the tube. My fault; not the tube's.

Once my house guests leave, I'll post the sorry results in my journal :(

Talking of house guests...they seem to be sleeping all over my living room, so it's off to do some work in my studio and let sleeping dogs lay...;)

Peace

So I moved the humidifier into the tent to see if temps would be affected. It stayed at a steady 72 throughout the night. This is a little low I assume. My question is this too much stress on my plants.

So a brief update: Temps are good now, humidity is higher and in a good range, I just watered on day 18. They were already kind of droopy last night before I watered them, but the pots were light feeling and I hadn't watered since 2 days before. I figured the drooping was from being under watered so I went ahead and watered. but they are still drooping. Any insight?

Took my first hand attempt at topping my lower grade seed and cloning the top. I'm hoping that I topped at the 2nd true node to get 4 tops.20130304_220025.jpg

SO I got my new grow bags in and cut the rest of the ffof I had with about 20-25% perlite. From here I transplanted the 3. I am a it worried about the soil level being a bit low. The average is 2"-3" from the rim. I figure I can fill in more later? The leaves are showing some yellowing, I didn't give them any nutes with the watering today figuring they were going to get some nutes from the fresh soil. My new tube is also installed and the temps are sitting around 78-89 and rh is 34-40%. I couldn't be happier. The one on the far left was topped at the second true node for 4 tops and looks like they are coming in good. The other two I just topped. I just felt so horrible to cut a nice bushy plant. The other was just a mexican seed. I am cloning the top that I took. I am kind of regretting not doing it to the others. But I think I am going to lst them out and get them bushy. Seeing as they seem more indica dominant.

SO they have been transplanted and had a couple days to adjust and I started some lst on the indica dominants. So I noticed some yellowing in some leaves a couple days back and I have read many times to not feed nutes to plants when you transplant into soils such as FFOF because of the nutes in the soil already. But I have noticed they are getting yellower. Should I go ahead and feed a lite does next watering say 1/4? (It's FF Trio for nutes)

They are doing great. I know they need some nutes, I am just waiting for the soil to dry up a little more. Can anyone give me an opinion on how I am doing with my LST'ing. I also have included a pic of a node that has something that looks a little like a ball. And the close up picture of some leaves, the tips are curving, what could be causing this. Other than that I would love to here any comments.
