Their is no-need to re-pot in the vegetative stage--If we decide to keep mothers latter down the road we can transplant at that time. I have grown 4 foot-high bushy mothers that have giving many clones from 16 ounce cups. I don't even know why the term--"root-bound" was in the same sentence as MJ growing. Big pots take lots of soil and space and water----We will save that for flowering.

They look good.Heres a couple pics of where I'm at in my grow.I watered them once at 1 week(yesterday) due to cups being so lite and the moisture meter i bought saying the soil was dry.I watered them untill I got a small amount of run off.
I didn't see this thread untill after I watered or I'd not have,hope they'll be fine.They seem to be doing great.Room 74 degrees,flo lights like you and 24/7 on light time.Growing in soil,water ph at 6.5 and run off water off the cups was about the same.heres a pic or two.8 days old today.
I have 2 trays of babys.Top 2 pics(tray 1) free lenord strain(g-13/butterscotch cross).Tray 2 in bottom pic runnin 2 days behind tray one on popping ground(Chemo cindy,stinky widow.widow cindys.
I added soil to cup tops last night.Hope the watering dont f them up.They seem to be doing great.
I love the fact that this class has such diverse strains going on---We should have some really nice medicine by the end of class

I will be watching my plants closely over the next couple of days--I will be looking to water when the cups feel lite and the top soil drys out a little. I will be feeding RO water with a half-dose of CAL/MAG plus or 2.5ml/gallon. If you are using tap water you don't need the cal/mag. The PPMS of this feed will be under 50.

Oh lol Had no idea. guess I'll jump to your other thread and try to understand whats going on thanks.Their is no-need to re-pot in the vegetative stage--If we decide to keep mothers latter down the road we can transplant at that time.

Glad I joined in this school and thread.been runnin around looking for pots to replant the cups in.Will be nice if I can wait till I send them to flower.
Doc on cloning?Have ya ever done air/layering of clones while still on the mammas?Looks like it might be a nice way to save space and stress on the new babys.Just got done reading a thread on this method of cloning and they where taking 2 ft clones and flowering them as soon as they took them off the parent plant.Made for some huge clones ready for flower.Any thoughts on this?

Is it too late to join?

Air-layering is a neat method but takes more time than the rockwool/rapidrooters/aerocloners. Rockwool and rapid-rooters are so easy once you get the basics under-control.
Never to late to join the class AF----the doors alwas open...

Ohh Nooo! I got a big problem, on my feminized himalaya gold the 2 lowest leafs (also the first 2 leafs) are curled downwards and got brown spots on the tips and are brittle and seem dry, I was touching them to try and flatten them like the other upper leafs and the leafs cracked a little and split a little. these browning spots appeared after i sprayed the organic plant food. the medical marijuana book I have on hand says that its been pollinated and that i should cut the browning spots, this is the 3rd day with those spots and on this 3rd day the rest of the leaves seem to have faint water spots or faint browning of the leaves on all the leaves!!!? please help

Organic spray??????---Did you foliar feed the plants?---with the lights on?----Marijuana books said what????-----Anyway, Your over-watering a little and your giving to much nutes to soon in the vegetative cycle.

I see that it takes longer for roots but dont ya make that time up with not having to veg the clone afterwards.I will try a few this round and compare it to the method you will teach us and see which one hits the bloom room first and at what size.I have plenty of babys to play with so do want to try this too.I like the fact of it still growin off the mamma while making roots(hence still vegging).Will be nice to compare and see.Lots of diffrent ways to skin a cat I guess.Just thought it was interesting.

Try it out--As far as time, I don't like to veg to long from clones--Plants can get too tall in the flowering room. My clones go into the flowering room 14 days after I cut them from the mothers--If they don't root in 5 to 8 days they don't make the grade(rock-wool cubes 1.5x1.5) I don't want my sat's taller than 9" or my indi's taller than 12" at the start of flowering. As far as skinning a CAT--I have a grower I know that has great results with a super-simple aerocloner. He uses a square tupperware with lid and puts an aquarium pump bubbler in there--He fills the tub with tap water and turns the pump-on and puts the lid on---He has 1/4" holes in the top of the lid--He takes a cutting and puts it in the hole---That's it!!!
---No rooting gels or powders--no nutrients---no PH'ing--He gets roots in 10 to 14 days.

Most KC BRAINS seeds we're done as regular-non-feminised---But I will BUMP the question for you and see if we can get a answer---Might be a crap shoot and you will just have to grow them out. A Lot of breeders offer both.
