Should I start from Seeds or grow Mother Plants

Yeah I would do that It's just I'm having a hard time finding that many clones as there is only one Co-Op where I live and they have a limit on how many clones you can buy so that no patient hogs them because there aren't that many. I would just buy all clones and then take clones from them, but I kind of also like what everyone is saying about how you get a little bit of diversity when you use seeds so you have a better chance at getting a seed that has your own holy grail genetics and then breed it with other dank stuff haha

thanks for your input

I pull clones on 2 mother plants.I pull 6 clones off each plant leaving 2-4 clones on the mother in case something happens,then all i have to do is grab another clone off mom.I generally wait until my clone sites get at least 2-3 inches before i cut them

well here's the deal. When you have that many plants, at a foot tall before flower, especially if your doing Low-Stress-Training, those 600s won't cut it without light movers. Try it out... if you're going to do 30 plants that means 15 under each, hang up your light and try putting 15 pots under it just to get an idea. It can be done, but you will be moving plants around constantly, because I have to do the same thing myself and i'm running 800 more watts than you will be. I don't mean any disrespect to the folks that are saying it is possible, because it might be, but not without light movers, or you moving the pots on the daily. If I were in your situation i would do a little mach-setup just to get an idea of what you are working with. In a SOG set up, you want an even canopy so if you're sticking with indica you'll be good. But if you're going to practice LST in your room, this further limits your space as LST widens your plants canopy. I hope i have helped rather than further confused you, but i'm sure you will get it if you really put your all into it and don't cut corners. These are the issues that every grower deals with when starting a new grow. Good luck and hit me up if you need any other help and i'd be glad to if I can. Respect

wrong. You buy seeds once. Pick a keeper as your mother, then clone from that. Go buy clones from someone and you don't know what you're getting.
Dude wasnt saying buy clones. Sorry you thought that way. Where I am I couldnt buy a clone if I tried any where within 5 states. I meant buy seeds keep a mother of the phenotype you like and veg um out.
