Lookin sweet bro!!! I think they'll be fine

E.F.

here are my mother plants into 5 days of flowering ....just makin use of the cfls for now till two more weeks till i get my hps light....

cut the leaves on my clones because they were pretty large and overlappin eachother.......

From this....




to this......

They look good. i say a couple days and you will be posting pics of roots!

Uhhhhhh, I dont know it that was a good idea, wouldn't that be like cutting the lips of a person? I mean the leafs are the source of energy intake?

I mean Im no super leet pro, but I would have not done that.

ahhhhh shit man dont be scarein me now rob my girlfriend got kind of upset with me too on how short i clipped them but so far so good...havent wilt or fallen over still standing but no roots yet temp stays at 73-80 and humidity at 90 so still keepin my fingers crossed was thinking of changing the light from 24/0 to 18/6 since i was readin that others use this light schedule and gettin good results........

I use 24/7, made for a faster veg time.

Lets see if those little fuckers made it through your cutting rampage.

week and 2 days ....still no root but stem still standing ......keepin my fingers crossed

ok got some news about the lighting .....like i said many times my grow room is 4'L X 2'W x 6'H now i got a deal coming in this week for a hps kit complete only thing i need to buy is the bulbs........i got a choice of either 1000w hps or 600w hps for 75.00 usd my ? is do you think a 1000w hps in that size of a closet is overkill??? please note im keepin the closet doors open .......

with the doors open and some fans and exhaust to extract the heat from the light and i think you'll be ok

so now you have 30 rooted clones ready to go? whats next?

still keepin them in the cloning box for a week more till i get a good root mass when transplantin.......its a toss up right still debaten .....either hydro dwc 5 gal buckets mayb about 5 buckets or less or doing a sog style grow using black soil in 1 gal grow bags but i am leanin towards the sog idea .....but if i go dwc and only use 5...it will be a freebee to whoever wants a clone.......
