Mothers:
After growing 3 bag seed females I experimented with topping and got good results so im hoping to do this to some again. You notice two of the clones are both the top of plant 3.. kinda cool I think haha. I made the mistake of transplanting them all into one pot...bad decision but i was hoping to at least get some mother plants for clones so that's what I got.
So I put them through a semi weak 3 32w 6week veg time and got enough nodes to start flowering. after flowering for 2.5 weeks I actually had some good bud sites forming. Because I knew they would be stunted so badly in the end if they continued I cloned all of them and ditched the mothers because there wasn't much left after I took my clones!
Clones:
I managed to get 11 clone starts, only going to keep the best 6. I used the dutch master replicator rooting hormone so im hoping all my splits and slices turn into solid roots. I know i cant expect all of them to start growing but I'm hoping for at least the ones pictured to grow...
Soil:
They are starting in soil with a 30%pearlite 70% Miricale Grow Organic Choice Potting Mix (1-.5-.5) and have added some Fox Farm Fruit and Flower nutes (5-8-4). The clones are right now in a 1.5Gal containers and I don't want to have to transplant this time around so I'm planning on flowering these clones soon.
Lights:
Currently the clones are under two 38w 6500k bulbs and one 42w 2700k bulb. Im growing using CFLs all the way through and have a 200w mega bulb one in 6500k and another in 2700k waiting to start exploding with light. Its seriously so bring in there with all the lights on, you really need shades so that is doesn't hurt your eyes.
I read that you wouldn't want to use a light like this to start? either way I'm running the smaller ones 24/7 for the next week so the plant just focus's on growing again..
Setup:
I built a good frame out of PVC piping with angled connectors then wrapped it all in a heavy duty canvas tarp and lined the insides with Mylar for reflectivity and it helps trap the light in the box as well...
The Exp1 picture is actually the 3rd Node of plant 1 and i figured i might be able to start a plant that has just had the top stem cut off of it..
Anyways please let me know what you think and if you have any advice that of course is always welcome and appreciated!
