Dude you and me both, I wish that i could catch every little thing and get all the questions answered
But i think between you, Mossy, JM and a few others they seem to be assisting like champs.
Spreading the info, so if i miss something guys its not because i didnt want to address it.
Its because like BH said this thread moves fast and has tons of info.
Thanks for being patient guys i appreciate it.

OK so I finally got to repot my AK a bit late she was hella dry but it didnt look so cramped not like others Ive had well its done the bottom of the pot was pretty dense but couldnt get a pic of it...She looks like she pickin up a lil bit of the droop but shall see if she is stressed anymore with the new shoes..I dont think the piks do too much justice for what it looked in real but here they are FULL D & John Mondello

NEXT - Here is a branch that i broke stupidly of my AK a couple weeks ago and it finally rooted...Can somebody tell me if I should stick her in dirt now or wait for more roots..? its my first time using this gel...

They look pretty thick to me as well as in a circular pattern especially in that first pic. You did say it was rather dense on the bottom correct? This is where the main stress would have came from
if they had piled in the bottom they had no where to go and slowed her down. If you are already seeing a change in her then its working. Give it a few days and i bet she really comes around for you. Thanks for the pics always help out to get a better idea of what we all may run into one day.

@HBS... sounds like you're ok then... good :)

@FD... thanks for the FD ver dose of canna-porn... lookin skank bangin'!

@bombuds... doesn't actually look all hat rootbound... but you can tell the roots were running around the outside... hmmm something interting to mention here... I've noticed some soils (especially airy soils like we like) have a tendency when they dry out to pull back from the edge of the pot... which, tends to cause a little roo-tip damage... which shows more under stress of low water... wonder if thats what you were experiencing... It always amazes me how a plant can go from good water mositure content to very dry so fast... seems like when they hit that point of peak oxygen/moisture mix... they burn through it fast!

As far as your lil clone... I like that! Nice! I'd let it root a little more before dirt slapping it... and when you do keep it moist for a good 4-5 days untill its roots shoot out n establish a bit.

looks good tho... gonna go check my clones now

EDIT: FD's right.. the bottom counts a lot more...

Thanx for the lookout I repotted her in a 5 gallon paint bucket with about 6-7 in fresh soil from the bottom. yeah bottom had a good bit of roots. i could see some before repotting comin out. I hope she does come around, wasnt able to get to her this morning and had to wait till later tonight to do it she stayed dry and hot too long..yellowed out alot more mainly at the bottom it should even out now I think. Would be good if this clone grows up too...would like to see what PJ & AK make together...along with the rest of my stable...

FD, ive reeaally enjoyed my jemXak cross. Ive been getting purples and with the funky ak smell.

Still on my F1s for the ak cross. but ran my purple jems to F3s, started those on xmas.
Click to expand...
nice i will be making F2's from this mother and then rolling to F3 or how ever long it takes to lock some color in to dom.

cant wait to see what the F3's bring you man. I hope that you get some serious color.
When you were crossing what did you look for in you search, where was your eye pulling you?
Did you hit the most colorful female? or just make a general cross?

you know I was lookin at that before I repotted her and def yes the soil pulled back enough to have a finger inbetween the dirt and pot..well i didnt make the same soil mix to repot her in...i left out the coco cause it seems it may of been that that is either drying out or keeping the dirt compact n pulling away from the pot with the roots..ROOT TIP DAMAGE....Good 1 prob a bit of both that n rootbound kept me stressn onher as I never used this mix before and LED...tried to water less as I have heard not to water as often with LED but I still found the dirt was prob drying out at the same rate as when I used reg light or cfls. but my other plants I used the same mix but dif. ratio stays wet alot longer than the AK....

Thats because of her size to medium ratio. Its like NC's monster ALF plant.
When they start getting that big and headed into flower there demands are insane.
Right now i have to hand water every other day and they are getting a half a gallon a piece
but its because they are eating and when they need/want food they'll suck that soil dry.

I found led lighting didn't change watering regiments as much as claimed... still putting of excess heat.. just a lower ratio than HPS, MH or CFL... always best to use the "2 knuckles in the soil" technique if you dont have amoisture tester... or dont care to buy one :)

the clone is from the same AK...I dropped the La Blanca pot and it fell on one of the branches of the AK so I first tried root powder and soil but it rotted after about 4 days so I cut the dead piece off and stuck it in the gel..that was 2 weeks ago i seen the first roots 2 days ago..about 3 weeks total.it was flowering(18 days) but some or the flowers have died..Im using a product called GEL2ROOT I tried it once before with some other ethnobotanicals I was trying to root but got impatient and just did the water way..this is the 1st time with Can. and it seems to work. No idea on what hormones are inside.

FACT... mine are quite tall now and thier demands are basically water every day... 4.5 gallons over 21 plants every day (.21 gal/day /plant)
was watering every 3 or 4 during veg... big diff as the plant gets bigger .. exponenial changes really

hormones are probbaly NAA and auxin or cytokinin... auxins for rooting and cytokinins or NAAs for shoots.

been reading up on tissue culture... my next endeavor

thanks for the clone info...
