What to do? Small grow area

i don't mist, tend to think it produces more trouble than it helps
but some do mist, and seem to have ok results
 
they just always seem to bounce back nicely after having a night to have the leaves soak up some water. I got my first sets, so in a week or two i should start some nutrients. I'm guessing, since im goin on vacation late june, im going to veg her nice n big in my room and than put it outside before i leave...clone it when i come back n start a new one, so yeah. any suggestions of household things or anything i can add to my soil or use in my water for veg? is mollasses good all grow?
 
molasses with its sugar is probably a bad idea, that is an invitation for problems, at least for misting
just my opinion, not well informed on the misting topic
 
well, i use molasses routinely in my teas, great stuff
what it brings to the game is all the trace minerals you can need, not too mention a nice amount of potassium, and even a little nitrogen
i like it fermented so the sugars have been consumed, sugar in your pot can draw ants and other nuisances
 
meh, the one outside has bugs in the dirt, no stopping it, its not in a pot outside n shit. i dont think they're that harmful, but who knows. little black ones, not tiny tho. Mollasses is good for Veg, as well as flower.?
 
i don't use it in veg, though i think i've seen plenty that do
you can get carried away with it, it does have a good amount of available iron in it, i've seen cliams they got metallic tasting bud from large amounts of molasses
also saw a few case of mold on the soil from too much, 1 tablespoon per gallon should be safe
 
good progress on one, couple sets oleaves already, other one is weird. reveg is also weird.

The weird seedling, well i guess not anymore, the weird baby has always had really morphed leaves. should this fix itself or is it a sign that shes fuckered?
 
it set itself straight by getting stolen.

How should a clone taken from flower look after 2 weeks? still some green on the leaves n stuff, not sure what its doing, if anything, and what to do with it
 
ripper? not a good situation, could have been an animal though
2 weeks for a cutting is not unusual, i've never used a budded branch to clone with, that might slow things down a little
 
...douchebag brother, it was in a planter, so id hope an animal wouldnt eat a buncho plastic. Is the clone suppose to start looking real bad before it starts perking up n growing roots?. seemed like its just steadily gone down hill since it started, never done a clone
 
cloning can be a tough nut to crack in the beginning
many a clone can look like crap but make it
2 big things: patience and too much light, too much light causes the cutting to starve to death
it starves to death because there are no roots to feed it, it's consuming whatever nutrients that are in the cutting
too much light keeps the cutting's metabolism in high gear
 
i prefer using a small cfl(13 watt) and a good fixed distance, maybe a foot
outside should work, but getting the light level right may be trickier
i'd think a month should be long enough
 
i put it in a spot outside where it has a large portion of the day shaded..still bummed about that one going missing. The one inside my room is looking really nice, growing fast, healthy and has no apparent problems, theres 2 outdoors that are seedlings and going quite slow..gonna be a toss-up as to if they will work, and the reveg i am going to have to move. I planted it close to the one that went missing, but it is in the actual ground, harder to Rip. should probably get it more secluded in the next couple days..just sucks cause she finally started some good new growtth..though the leaves are weird in reveg...

Clone started on the 10th i believe, so i guess i got some time to wait. Do the leaves need constant moisture / misting? dirt should be dry or wet? humidity dome outside? - humidity usually hovers here between 30-60% give or take

after summer grows im going to make a good effort to learn and start cloning instead of seeds, i can't stand the fragile bastards
 
the leaves don't need moisture, at least not as much as the soil, that's what needs to be kept moist, i generally water lightly once a day
understand the feeling with clones, they are fussy, and some strains do not clone easily
 
other than seeing growth, is there any signs that i can see that they are going to make it. and i guess signs that they aren't.
I pretty much just cut a branch off, dipped it in water, stuck it in the dirt and have kept it all moist n stuff
