3 week old clone
1 week in flowering.
4 plants in a DWC
Homemade SCROG

Lower leaves wilted up BC water level got low, corrected they drink almost a gallon per day.

Cloned in Clonex and rapid rooter under a 600 watt HPS

To late to clone bottom branches ?

Using nutri plus grow and bloom, does anyone use and bud candy or monster bloom when they're in flower?

You can clone until about the 3rd week of flowering. It's called monster cropping. Works relatively nice.

I grow organic so I can't help with the nutes.

They look very nice for only a week into flower. They flipped very quick.

The screen looks a little low. I don't know how yours grow, but my sativa dominant hybrids stretch for close to 3 weeks.

Hope all goes well.

Yeah the screen was a little low they streched right after switched to 12/12. But the screen made all the lower growth turn into colas. At least 20-30 too colas

You're top is going to shade out your bottom (it's already starting)so you're better off taking clones anyhow.

Nice thing about that is the monstercropping benefit you'll get. 2 weeks in veg after rooting, flip to 12/12, and they'll bush like nobody's business.

Good luck and happy growing.

Appreciate it, for this grow it was my first time using DWC and they grew like crazy in 2 weeks.
how many plants under a 600 w hps is a good amount?

Yea, DWC will take off like that. They respond quicker to both negative and positive effects.

That depends on how big they are. If you can get an even canopy and get light to all the bud sites, as many as you can fit. I've run up to 6 mainlined plants under a 400W. It was a little too little in my opinion. Nice harvest but the buds were a little airy.

Now I just keep it to 100W per plant for flowering. Much better results.

Looking good so far....I use Bud Candy and it seems to work well.

Yea, DWC plants will run away on you like that. They respond much quicker than soil to both positive and negative effects.

I don't know if you're familiar with super cropping, but that can help before you flower. For next time, ya know.

I've run 6 plants under a 400W and had decent results. The buds were a little airy so now I stick to one plant per 100W on HID lighting.

As long as you can get solid lighting to your budsites, you can throw as many in as you want. I mainline, so it takes longer, but 2 plants with 8 colas fill my 4x2 tent. I can run 4 super cropped girls in the same tent.

All depends on how you train... That's the biggest factor in my opinion.

Those are 4 clones in DWC, 600 w hps, so hopefully the yield is good. i will be posting up results just keep following. i appreciate it
Did anyone else have any problems yesterday using this site?

Seems to be fixed. Everything is showing up now.

On a side note, you can clone with honey instead of clonex. Roots faster in my opinion. Just a thought.

Next time I clone.


This how they're coming out.
I try to stay all natural but in top of that, honey is $22 for a 5lb jar. You could probably clone the rest of your life with that and it doesn't expire like clonex or other rooting compounds.

Do you use soil or a bubble/aero system?

Soilless mix and add perlite for my mother plants.
DWC/Bubbleponics for my clones.

I grow in organic soil but I clone in the bubbler too. I get much quicker results with stronger rooting, as opposed to soil cloning.

Did you make a journal?
Ive made a journal on my phone with pics and detailed timeline, just waiting till i get a final weight to upload all of it to a journal.
