Days 34 and 37. They are picking up speed now. Thinking taproots finally hit the res so we should be seeing some better growth. Temp steady at 75F and 55-60%h looking healthy besides snail speed. Want them at least a foot tall before taking first set of clones. Mixing and ph-ing next gallons for them at 1/2 gpg MC. Will be ph to 6.0

Day 42 and 45 for the Ethos girls. I think this coming weekend I will take first cuttings from them. I have cloning powder and peat pellets. I believe I will prob have to find a cloning chamber or build one.

They seem to be doing great under the HLG 600 rspec. Nice and green, healthy. The 600 rspec is at click#2 temps steady at 75 degF and 60% h

So, on the single topped MZ girl I am going to take some lower branches and make some clones. Was needing a heat source for rooting zone and remembered a cable box that never got returned… voila! Heat mat, lol and as you see, a clear low tote on top of that with another tall, smaller profile clear tote in that as the chamber. The tray will look kinda funny as it’s a disposable lunch meat package with popsicles sticks on the side for support. I have 6 jiffy peat pellets rehydrating and warming in a solution of 1/4 gpg mc with .5 ml GLB roots mixed in. Roots was left over from a previous test using GLB amendments. They are on a cable box rt now and will stay out til this afternoon when cloning commences. This should be fun as it’s been a loooonnnngggg time since I have done the process.

Days 49 and 52 for the girls today. Took clones from the non triple plant yesterday. Once the clones are rooted they will be reintroduced to the tent and vegged for another 3-4 weeks before either taking a trip outside to start hardening process or switch to 12/12 and let them rip. May take another set before vegging… not sure.

Morning all, weekly update days 55 & 58. I am gonna have to flower these soon or pop them out when I put clones in… so here are the big girls today…

And here are the clones, looking worse for wear but I am seeing roots on two so hope they make it. Gotta get pots prepped for transplant.

I know that most people will cut their leaves but read a study claiming that there is no improvement to rooting when leaves are cut. I also have 4 new babies that’ll be added to the auto tent when it’s time…

In front- left is Rocbud Purple Kong, right is HSO Chocolate Mint OG. Back - left is Fastbuds Amnesia Zkittlez and back rt is Errors seeds Fruit Auto. Back two seedlings are the ones that jumped out of their shell casings during germination and were doing laps in the shotties.

And the wedding glue solos… and the next round of autos. The fastbuds Amnesia zkittlez doesn’t seem to be doing anything… if she doesn’t make it she’ll be replaced… with what? Unsure!
