planning a super stealth perpetual harvest clone machine.

So, before i go and buy my supplies i would like some feedback on my new plan. (Note: i have grown many times, but always with cfls, and from seed. Also never tried lst before.)

Im still undecided on lights so opinion on light setups would be helpful

The plan is, germinate and plant 20 seeds (bagseed for this run). Keep two mothers and flower the rest immediately. Take clones from mommies once a week, and put under 12/12 as soon as they are rooted. After a few weeks i will have a harvest every week. I also plan on using colloquial silver to make my own fem seeds, but have more research to do on that.

The questions,

can i use cfls for the mother's and hps, or mh for the clones (and the moms sisters)? Will the change in light spectrum be an issue?

Also, can clones be Lsted early on? Yeild is going to be my main concern, and im not to sure about the quality of my bagseed. As long as the setup shows potential ill be ordering seeds in the near future.

Phone is dying ill post this now and the rest later

I am growing in soil. Using 6inch flowering pots, and considering saving plant scraps as compost for the future.

don't know about your plan but anything fluorescent

lst'ed early on? I suppose you could.

Is it easy to kill a clone early on if I lst it? I suppose it is.

Is there a good reason to lst early on. No. At least not to early. Let some roots grab hold.

I Mean after the clone is rooted. I never grew from clones. A little birdie told me lst is no good for clones because of whatever reason, but i have seen many on here do it.

I don't think you will have a super stealth grow because now I know.

Must know the first rule... Also, take time and read through some of these forums.

CFL for the clones yes. CFL for the mother depends on how big you plan to let it get, might need more light later on. HPS for flowering is great. Changing from cfl to mh shouldnt matter both of them should be between 5500-6500k anyways

I would let the clones develop a few nodes and develop a root system before LST but I suppose if you really wanted to you could
